"What does 'yes' mean, Mr. Potter?" McGonagall asked, glaring at him. "What does 'yes' mean?" James asked her incredulously, "it means this is the best moment of my life and you're messing it up!" How James finally got Lily to go out with him. Also includes the rest of the Marauders (of course). Rated T for language.
"If we want the rewards of being loved, we have to submit to the mortifying ordeal of being known." Remus thinks that if he can make himself stay away from her now, it will be better for them both in the long run, but Tonks believes that if she can convince him how supremely stupid this is, then maybe they could be happy together now. Set circa Half Blood Prince.
Lucy Watson suffers from acute (and possibly terminal) hero worship of her godfather, the detective. Sherlock holds a place in his heart (that's possibly larger than is healthy) for his godchild, John's daughter. And every now and then, the two of them need to catch up...and if that means he dangles her in front of a potential drug lord as their choice activity, then so be it.
Sirius is reunited with a friend who died in the first war. During his time in Azkaban, he did a lot of thinking about her and now, on the first time they've seen each other in sixteen years, he's pulling a make-it-or-break-it move. Heaven!fic.
"Everyone wants to know who you're going to live for...and which flag you're going to die under." The night Voldemort goes to Godric's Hollow, from the perspectives of James Potter's and Severus Snape. T for strong language.
What if Sirius had the other two-way mirror on him when he died and Harry was able to talk to his godfather and parents though it? "Sirius Black? Sirius Black!" "Pads, is that your pocket talking to you?" "I dunno, but it sounds like...no way, it couldn't have been there the whole time...Harry!" T for swearing and a tiny bit of suggestive-ness.
Moony-the quiet, bookish introvert; Wormtail-the timid, tagalong yes-man; Padfoot-the loud, shameless rebel; and Prongs-the confident, charismatic romantic. Who would think boys so different could become friends? Surely they were brought together by something great. Something terrifying. Exhilarating. Something to change a boy forever. Something like the events of that first maraud
He was rude, insensitive, and immature. She was impatient, bossy, and a know-it-all. But somehow, in the end…they worked. Ron's musings over Hermione. My first free verse poem.
"I refuse to make friends with another cancer kid. There won't be a Five." "Five?" "Five people I've lost 'cause of cancer. Caroline was one; Monica, two; Gus, three." "And now Hazel's four." "Yes ma'am. So I want no Five." Three months after Hazel's death, Isaac returns to Support Group. There's no chance he'll get involved with anyone sick ever again. But then...there was Claire.
Teddy Lupin may have grown up with the most dysfunctionally supportive family ever, but he's anything but ready for his own Sorting, despite their stories and reassurances. There's a lot weighing on this 11-year-old celebrity when the Hat goes on his head, and, being raised by Harry Potter, nothing can ever be easy. Choices will be made and sparks will fly at the stigma's Sorting.
In the wake of the death of James' parents, his friends are nervous about how to approach him, as he's yet to cry a full week later. Bittersweet Jily moments ensue. T for brief, angry-James language.
Written for the novel Journey to the River Sea by Eva Ibbotson. What if Bernard Taverner never did die when he supposedly drowned but was "rescued" downstream by an enemy tribe? Bernard's musings on captivity, home, and family. I wrote this in fifth grade before I even knew fanfiction was a thing and recently decided to freshen it up and post.
In which Sherlock may or may not show his hand at just how much he cares for his goddaughters; naturally, in the form of psychological torture. Semi-sequel to The Daughter and the Detective. "You're just doing this because there haven't been any good murders lately," Lucy grumbled, glaring at him. "That," he said thoughtfully. "And it's so much fun to watch young people squirm."
If Harry was the leader, Hermione the brains, Ron the glue that kept them together, who was the wild card? This is Grace Potter who has no filter between her mind and mouth and a penchant for getting into trouble. Different from JK's original and the other sisterfics!harrypotter, I assure you. UNDER REWRITE!

Without the other two there, James learns some important things about about suffering, his best mate, and the virtues of silent strength that he never would have if it weren't just he and Remus. One-shot. No slash. Set in fifth year.
