But they made a kind of sense beside each other."

Summary
"There isn't a way to articulate it to Harry, how he was gravity. The thing that kept her molecules bonded together. There isn't a way to transmit this without revealing the other, more private thing that has always churned in the deepness of her, pushed down, down, further than blood, further than bone. Her dark matter.
In a universe made of it, held together by it—what happens when gravity is not a force, but a person? How do you go on without them? Maybe you don't. Maybe you can't.
Annihilation. A whimper, and then a blur. The truest nature of grief."

Or: Harry's ghost shows up at Hermione's house after the war.

Summary
"In the Headmistress's office, McGonagall waxes on about inter-house unity, forgiveness, reconciliation; by all measures a perfectly reasonable position, and another Hermione in another life may have passionately advocated for the same. But things are different now. She is different, too.
The difference is written on her arm, the price she had paid in blood, her pound of flesh. A permanent reminder of The Way Things Had Changed."
***
Or: Hermione is not the only one who's lonely. Hermione is not the only one who's changed.

Summary
"When she looks back, it is the dreams that are effortless to grasp. Year 0; the beginning of history. They are where something solid first takes shape in her mind, dizzy and opaque.
Always there is a boy, dark eyed and dark haired, his face pinched, solemn. There are creatures with strange shapes and skin, speaking strange languages. There are swords made out of light, and rusting metal ships moving through space in an endless sea of stars."
☽ ☼ ☾
Alternatively: Rey grows up in foster care in the deserts of California, and she dreams about a strange dark-haired boy with a lightsaber in a galaxy far, far away. This is a journey through space and time and memory. It is about the choices we make and the dreams we weave. But above all, it is about love. It is always about love.

Summary
"It’s the disbelief in his eyes that does it.
It’s the way he raises his eyebrows, confused, when she says, “Cinar.” He was the first thing that came to mind. She was panicking, and impulsive, and she thought, this will do.
She had considered this only once before. What would hurt him the most. What would make the break the cleanest, so she could hit the ground running before he truly realized she was gone.
Burn the bridge, Esra. Burn it to the ground. She lights the match when she says Cinar’s name. It blazes all around her, and her skin is hot and blistering with the lie. She feels cheap and used as she stares at Ozan, and she wants to hold him and she wants to run before her face and her quivering lips give everything away."
***
An alternate ending to Episode 14 in which Esra fails to put space between herself and Ozan, because I need a world where Eszan communicate and nothing hurts.

Summary
“Do you trust me?” Evie asked. Her eyes, like warm honey, stared at him intently.
This was the natural stopping point. The point where it was obvious Gale had forgotten that he was supposed to be the responsible one, the one to keep them both out of trouble. Staring at the soft curves of Evie’s body, her hand under his shirt - those were amusing, one-off accidents. Now was the perfect time for Gale to gently guide Evie’s hand away and tell her she should try to get some sleep.
“I trust you,” Gale said hoarsely.
Well, he tried.

Summary
Evie looked out over the city again. “Baldur's Gate is a wonderful place.”
Gale marveled at how he had once found Evie difficult to read. Every arch of her brow and tilt of her mouth seemed to say so much to him now. He noticed the tightness in her smile, how quickly she broke eye contact with him. Even the tone of her voice rang false.
“Now why do I get the sense that you’re finding this all a bit below ‘wonderful’?” he asked.
She pouted. “I don’t like this - this thing you do now. Where you know what I’m thinking all the time."
