Summary
For three years, she ignored the way she clung to updates about him from her brother, every little piece of his life he didn’t share with her in the course of a hookup. She disregarded the tightening in her chest and the fluttering in her stomach when they were together, noticing that he never stopped noticing her, anticipating her desires and giving them to her without her having to ask. And she refused to acknowledge that maybe, just maybe, it wasn’t only about sex — not for her, and maybe not for him either.
And that’s, of course, how she ended up here: huddled over a cauldron in the bathroom of her tiny flat, trying to work up the courage to prick her finger and pinch a drop of blood into the potion.

Summary
He felt Ginny’s fingers brushing away tears from his face before he had ever realized he was crying. Felt her hands in his hair, her voice in his ear. Her love healing places within him that a hurt little boy had made home. She could love him too, Harry thought. He could let her love him, too.
A canon-compliant insight into the abuse and neglect Harry Potter experienced as a child to the tune of "The Light's Are On But Nobody's Home", by Tom Rosenthal. Inspired by the most soul-crushing Tiktok trend on my FYP right now.

answer to a Tumblr prompt: "we were lovers in a past life" but the current incarnations are enemies-to-lovers, and they don't remember anything from their past selves.

Summary
Annoyance, a deep, visceral annoyance that only Potter seems capable of generating, stirs up within her. Part of her still wants to storm out and away from him, another part wants to smack that smirk off his face, and a third very secret part that should never have existed in the first place can’t stop thinking about that photo, about her mouth on his, about his long fingers rucking up the hem of her shirt.
If she leaves now, she reasons, he’ll have gotten the last say, and that’d be absolutely no fair.
So she stalks over, plants her hands on her hips, and looks up at him. “Alright, new deal,” she says. “One kiss — one real kiss — and then you get it out of your system.”
(Spoiler alert: Neither of them gets anything out of their system.)

Summary
James and Lily grew up next door to one another. Their bedroom windows giving them glimpses into the others life, and also offering prime opportunities to argue with each other over every little thing. They never figured out how to be friends when they were kids, but now that they've graduated from college and are home for the summer, they have a second chance to get things right.
