'Someday, he will tell her that he loves her with his eyes closed.' (Fleur/Bill)

A short post-GoF summer vignette in which Ron discovers his not-quite-platonic feelings for a certain bushy-haired bookworm . . . :-)

'I don’t want to make crowns of flowers anymore, and I know that it’s because of you.' Ginny's thoughts during CoS as Tom gains control of her.

'That blood - blood like theirs - runs through my veins. Bad blood. Dirty blood.' Tom Riddle reflects.

'"He killed them," I have to repeat constantly, like some sick sort of mantra. "They’re dead, all of them, and it's because of him."' After Sirius is put into Azkaban, Remus sees him one last time.

'She still stares up at him, lifeless. He wishes her eyes were closed. It would be different then. Less real. Like one of those fairytales Mum had used to tell Ginny all the time.' Set during CoS. Ron visits a Petrified Hermione.

...I turned and I kissed you, without saying anything, because I was so tired of words.' After her death, Auriga Sinistra reflects on what she's left behind. Companion piece to dramaprincess' For The Weary.

When Professor Trelawney presents Severus Snape and Auriga Sinistra with the rather unwelcome news that they are soulmates or so the fates proclaim, it's hard to decide who's less thrilled by the prospect.

When Snape forgets about Auriga Sinistra's birthday, he dreads what will undoubtedly be a violent reaction. So he does the notsoobvious thing and asks for advice from...Ron Weasley? Spontaneous, ridiculous SS romance ensues. :

'Last night you told me in a whisper that I was beautiful. That you love me and you shouldn’t, because no one deserves to be cursed with the tainted love of a doomed hero.'

Ah, denial. Severus Snape and Auriga Sinistra know it well. But can everyone's favorite Mr. Magical Me get them to confess their feelings? ...WHAT feelings? A.K.A. Probably not.

"Hermione. You're sick." "I am NOT sick, Ron! I can't be sick! The O.W.L.'s start tomorrow!" Ron attempts to persuade Hermione to visit the Hospital Wing and put studying on hold. Or, in simpler terms, he attempts the impossible.

'I wonder sometimes if they took pieces of your soul.'

Hermione Granger thinks that Valentine's Day is completely ridiculous. So why does it bug her when she discovers that Ron shares her loathing for February 14th? Rows and romance ensue, in true R/H fashion.

'She’d been seduced by a stormy grey gaze and words tainted with a silken cruelty.'

After retrieving Ron's Astronomy homework during the middle of the night, he and Hermione stumble upon a very familiar mirror...

When the future appears tragically bleak, Narcissa and Lucius find themselves instead turning to the past.

Lucius Malfoy, as we all know, is capable of some downright evil deeds. But no one ever expected...this. Includes a horrified Narcissa, a rather rowdy Dumbledore, and a Dark Lord who just wants his mummy.

Penelope is fed up with her boyfriend's unhealthy obsession with a certain Mr. Barty Crouch.

'Pieces of us die every day as though our flesh were hell...'
