Summary
The year was 1994 and Fred Weasley was feeling optimistic, but that was no surprise. He couldn't possibly foresee all that the next four years would hold, the ways his life would swell and twist. He had no idea the ways in which the smallest of choices, seemingly insignificant moments, could shape everything to come.
Or, Fred and Hermione are separated from the rest of the group during the Death Eater attack at the Quidditch World Cup and this small change profoundly impacts not only the two people whom it concerns but the events that unfold over the next four years.

All Your Colours (On My Skin) by joinmeinsecretghosts
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

Summary
Fred Weasley is all light and colour—a kaleidoscope, iridescent. Soul marks blooming across his skin like constellations.
Hermione Granger is quiet gravity—storm-watched and still, full of unspoken lightning. Her soul marks are few, hidden, and carefully chosen.
Or:
Five years of emotional repression and avoidance vs. one accidental touch.Bookmarked by bitternessbitesback

Summary
“Accomplished.”
“Beautiful.”
“Charming.”
“Diligent.”
“Exciting.”They were huddled near the common room fire, their hands bathing in bowls of Murtlap Essence, easing the painful cuts from the pink abomination's evil black quill. Since they couldn't play Exploding Snap one handed, Hermione had suggested a muggle game. After several rounds, only Fred and the plucky witch remained.
“Fierce."
“Gifted."
“Heroic.”
“Intelligent.”
“Judicious.”Hermione tilted her head in a small nod of acknowledgement, and Fred couldn't help feeling proud. He hadn't expected a simple game to give him a chance to show the brightest witch of their age... and subject of his mostly secret crush... that he wasn't just a joker. But he wasn't complaining either. If he got to compliment her too, that was a bonus.
Author's note:
This is an edit/update of a story I originally wrote back in 2019, I think. I had a few messages on Tumblr about when I was going to bring this back, and I apologise to anyone who's been waiting for this work to be re-uploaded.
Please note, rude comments will not be published. If you don't like the content, understand this wasn't written for you and move on.Series

Summary
Hermione knew what she was doing. She blamed it on the simple facts that the man she’s loved since third year was about to die. She swore never to reveal what she has done. Only Fred knows something big happened, especially when he starts to see flashes of Belatrix within his mind, when he’s never encountered her personally.
How will everything play out?Bookmarked by bitternessbitesback

Summary
Hermione was many things in life, several of which she didn't remember—at least after waking up in the Death Chamber outside of the veil. There were many things she didn't remember: her life after Hogwarts, the people and relationships she built, and her death.
Plopping down in her life after dying was likely not something she ever expected. Nor would be the recovery to figuring out where she fits in it after some time from her death, especially since her death wasn't... normal.
Considering it was some time after the war to end up dead... something to look into no doubt.
Hermione has friends and family to be overbearingly supportive and surprises along the way. Life isn't what you expect it to be, but truly what you make it.

Summary
Hermione is perfectly - well, not happy, but - content with her life after the war. She works in the Ministry alongside Percy Weasley, adores her godson Teddy Lupin, and is just lucky that her friends are happy.
Up until the marriage law crops up. That does definitely put a damper on things.
Luckily, Fred knows how to make people laugh.

Summary
Things have finally calmed down to business as usual—as much as business is ever usual, for the Ouran High School Host Club—and Kaoru is feeling some tried and true Hitachiin-brand boredom. Seeing this, Kyoya issues an intriguing challenge: he plans on winning a certain game in exactly five years. If Kaoru wants to beat him, all he has to do is figure out the goal of the game before Kyoya wins it.
As if a tried and true Hitachiin could turn down a challenge like that.

Summary
(bits and pieces from a salt-heavy AU I made on my Tumblr)
Immediately after the events of "Oblivio," discussion is brewing over the photo of Ladybug and Chat Noir kissing, with Alya excitedly soaking it all in. However, not all opinions are positive, and once Marinette takes Ladybug's side in the debate, the class ends up dividing itself on the matter completely.
Questions are asked, seats are changed, and Marinette gets an idea of her own: if no one else will step up for Ladybug, she will, and she'll make a blog herself in order to do so.
As friends come and go, a crush is crushed, new heroes are considered, and Marinette is able to clear her mind to focus on the more important things in her life.
Her happiness, her new blog, and finding Hawk Moth.

Framed by the soft morning light, sleek hair swept back and pale blue robes not even slightly rumpled, he looks almost inhuman.
He looks like the last person who should be knocking on Wei Wuxian’s door.
In which Wei Wuxian is a curse worker secretly searching for a lost dragon, Lan Wangji is his new assistant, and the two things may not be entirely unrelated.

Summary
She whirls around and comes face to face with 'the prince'. The rumoured senior who had been proclaimed as the most beautiful boy of the school. She had seen him first through the windows, surrounded by people smiling gently, as the girls around her talked about how perfect and charming he looked.
The prince with a lonely smile.
But now close up from here, she could see how mussed his hair was and the tie he wore looked crooked. Prince? Was she sure he was one?
...
Finding eachother and falling in love was not something they thought was possible for them. But as the seasons passed by, it became easier. Yuki and Machi - and few moments of them being together.

Summary
It’s embarrassing. It’s so embarrassing that she doesn’t want to explain it and would rather bottle it all away and ignore it, because she hates that she let it get to this point. She hates that she ever listened to them, that she let them talk doubt into her mind. She doesn’t want to be like this, she doesn’t want to be something as petty as jealous.
Or,
Machi goes to visit Yuki at college, mostly because she misses him.

Summary
Keigo, as a child, had been unclear about why the Commission is so upset to find out he is blind. Keigo has always been blind. He was born this way. He was like this when they took him. He doesn’t understand why they’re so angry when they find out he sees using his feathers, instead of his eyes.
Keigo, as an adult, knows that the Commission’s anger is bullshit.
Dabi knows it too, and is less hesitant to say so.- Language:
