  • In the Service of Others

    Molly is not one to sit idle. It isn't in her nature. She likes being busy, and as the last of her children leave for Hogwarts, Molly never even entertains the idea of staying at home with no company but her own. She needs a job. But Molly quickly discovers that whatever employers are looking for, it's certainly nothing she has to offer them.

  • Spectators

    Ginny wasn't a stranger to stadiums. She had played at more than a dozen different venues across the UK. But this was something entirely different for Ginny. And it was mesmerising... Until it wasn't.

  • Matrescence

    Being a mother to baby James is wonderful. But it's also exhausting, monotonous and lonely.

  • Green

    Fred was the only one of her children to have a green stocking. Each Christmas Eve, it would hang from the mantle, flanked by three red stockings on either side. It's such a simple question, what to do with this unassuming item. But she has found these past few months that the simple decisions can be the hardest. It's Christmas, 1998, and Molly is not ok (but she's trying to be).

  • Rebuilding

    George knows he's meant to rebuild. That's what you do, isn't it? You wipe away the tears, suck in a deep brief, and rebuild your life - brick by brick, stone by stone, memory by memory.

  • These winds of war

    It was meant to be easier once Harry arrived. Molly had convinced herself of it. She would be able to see for herself that he was safe and well. But he'd arrived, and Mad-Eye hadn't, and it didn't matter what hollow hopes she had sold herself. Harry wasn't safe. And the war was inching closer. The beginning of Deathly Hallows from Molly's point of view.

  • An unknown magic

    In the centre of the back wall was a large black box, its dark glass front reflecting a distorted version of themselves and the cluttered space around them. "Ron and Hermione gave it to me yesterday," Arthur said. "A bit of an early present." Arthur is given a television for his birthday, and Ginny and Harry discover a show with a unique idea of how magic works.

  • Reading you, before the fall

    Ginny understood what Harry needed to do. But she didn't have to like it. Set a couple of days before Dumbledore's funeral.

  • When old acquaintance are best forgot

    While enjoying a night out in Muggle London, Harry's evening is interrupted by the appearance of someone from his past.

  • Close comfort

    Harry has returned to Muriel's house with the Weasleys after the battle. But he can find no comfort in the house that is filled with noise and overpowering emotion. He has to get away from it.

  • Guessing games

    After hearing that Harry has a new girlfriend, the older Weasley boys are keen to hear more. Set a few days after the Battle of Hogwarts.
