Summary
" 'Mr Weasley, do you deny any of these charges?'
It would’ve been useless to tell them he hadn’t known. At best, they wouldn’t believe him, and, at worst, they would think him an utterly stupid man. They would be right, of course, because how could he not have realised? “No.” He muttered, and he hated how small his voice sounded. He hadn’t felt like this in years, like a child getting yelled at. In the end, he figured, all those years of fake responsibilities and pompous, proud behaviour amounted to nothing, and he was still back in that position."
Or,
Percy's sentenced to eleven years in Azkaban for his complicity in Voldemort's crimes. Can he ever be a person again?

Summary
“There was no hope for anyone. Not for him, not for the androids, and certainly not for Cole. Somehow, it was better this way. The world had a way of ruining great people, the bitterness and greed sneaking slowly into their brains until they were only breathing in anger, vengeance and shame. Hank hadn’t wanted that — didn’t want that for Cole. Still. He was human, and inherently selfish : he didn’t give a fuck what the world might have done or not done to his son, if he could just hold him again.”
—
Or, Hank reflects on his life, with, for only company, the memory of his son and his handgun.

Summary
"And Charlie’s shaky hands dropped the parchment. It was in its usual elegant cursive handwriting, not having morphed too much over the years.
Percy, estranged younger brother Percy, wanted to visit their mother. Wanted to reconnect. If the thought didn’t tug at his heart quite so strongly, Charlie would have thought he was dreaming. He breathed out a chuckle, his lips curling up. His hand itched to grab a quill and write back, ask Percy to come as soon as he could. There was so much to catch up on, they hadn’t seen him in fifteen years.
Merlin. They hadn’t seen him in fifteen years. How could it ever be alright, him sneaking back into their lives? Charlie tried to imagine talking to his brother again, shaking his hand, hugging him – and found it was more difficult than he’d wished. "
Or,
It's been fifteen years since the battle of Hogwarts, since any Weasley has spoken to Percy. Molly has been hospitalised. Charlie, scared for his mother and stressed by the family reunion, turns 47 and intercepts a letter from Percy to the family. Will they answer? Will they all manage to get past the fifteen years of estrangement?

Summary
"He couldn’t make the same mistakes again. He couldn’t become too confident in his ‘safety’, because safety didn’t exist anymore. Not in this world. Yet, he had. He’d grown overconfident and cocky, he’d underestimated Rick and his people, and now, he had failed.
He’d failed his mother, he’d failed his brother, he’d failed all of the people that died in the Terminus fire, hell, he’d even failed those who were alive right by him."
Or,
Gareth hates failure more than anything. How come it follows him throughout his Life and, even in Death, doesn't let go?

Summary
The Connor that finds him in the bar is a very familiar face that digs up regrets that Hank thought he was past. How bad can it hurt to see the face of a dead friend?
The Devil lies in the details. The ones they hit, and the ones they miss by such a slim margin that it is unsettling.Bookmarked by sashxxt

Summary
“This isn’t a joke, Ollie.”
“I’m not joking, love.” Oliver sits next to him on the bed. They’re centimeters apart. Oliver smells like the Sunday roast Molly made. “We are still friends. Everyone makes mistakes, people move on. It’s stupid to hold grudges, after everything. Your family has forgiven you, you forgive them, you move on.”
“They didn’t do anything wrong—
“We lived together for seven years. I remember the tears and the hurt your siblings caused you. They were never really good to you. Your best, which is the best, was never enough. I remember that. You’ve never seen your own worth. That’s why you try so hard to be perfect, but it has to stop. You have to stop trying to be something that’s good enough for everyone because we all fall short. For once, decide who you want to be for yourself. Not for your parents, not for Fred, not for the ministry. For yourself.”
