Summary
The force that through the green fuse drives the flower
Drives my green age; that blasts the roots of trees
Is my destroyer.
And I am dumb to tell the crooked rose
My youth is bent by the same wintry fever.As war simmers beneath the surface of a world too afraid to name it, a generation comes of age in the shadow of something dark and rising.
Between the classrooms and corridors of Hogwarts lie grief, loyalty, betrayal, first heartbreaks, and the fierce, impossible tenderness of falling in love while the world tilts slowly toward ruin.

Summary
It's 1975, and Lily Evans lives a double life.
At home, she's the Irish Catholic daughter of a union organizer in a dying industrial town. She smokes, drinks, and sneaks out her window to go to punk shows. At Hogwarts, Lily never puts a toe out of line. As a Muggle-born, she'd never give her pure-blood classmates any reason to doubt her.
James Potter has never had to be anyone but himself.
Why would he? Wealthy, good-looking, and intelligent, he knows he's lucky. But the war with Voldemort is bringing what's important into sharp relief. His aging parents have joined the Order of the Phoenix, and James longs to fight alongside them.
When Voldemort's followers murder seven Muggle-borns in broad daylight just before the start of their fifth year, tensions at Hogwarts reach an all-time high. Voldemort is recruiting from the student body, and the time has come to act.
But Hogwarts is not split between good people and Death Eaters, and old prejudices die hard. In dark times, alliances shift and secrets are revealed.
And maybe, through it all, Lily and James will fall in love with the person they least expect: each other.

Summary
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw his tall, broad-shouldered frame and the perpetual glorious chaos of his hair passing by the window. Something rose up between her ribs and expanded out into her chest, a flower whose seed had laid long dormant, planted under summer skies and watered by a smile that had once made her blood boil and then made it burn and—
Fear, or something that should have been fear, slid down like sweat on the back of her neck. It occurred to her then, though it should have occurred to her far sooner, that this—seeing him again—might be dangerous. That where it might be safe for her to think of him like other married women thought of Cary Grant or Clark Gable, having him in the same room as her might pitch her over lines she couldn’t cross.
-or it’s the 30s, James is a barrister, Lily is married, and the only thing that will distract them from their mutual longing is fixing Britain’s family law system.

Summary
When she had stepped off the train in Hogsmeade station, Lily Evans had promised herself one thing: don't be stupid.
She isn't quite sure where letting James Potter get under her skin falls on the spectrum of idiocy, but it's definitely up there.

Summary
The last thing anyone expects is for Mikasa Ackerman to get engaged after the war. She disappears into the politics and diplomacy of Hizuru.
And yet, despite that, here she is, in Jean Kirschtein’s bed. Her head on his chest, fingers tracing the scars that have settled on his skin.
