    Summary

    The marriage of convenience fic no one asked for.

    The morning after the Netherfield Ball, while Mr Collins is proposing to Elizabeth, Mr Bennet collapses. With her father unconscious and apparently near death, her mother pressuring her to marry Mr Collins, and the gentleman himself ignoring her protests, suddenly saying 'no' is not so easy. Faced with poverty and homelessness if she continues refusing, the gossip soon reaches Netherfield that she will have to marry Mr Collins. Just as Mr Darcy is about to mount his horse and follow Mr Bingley to London, never to return, he overhears the servants talking. The thought of Elizabeth married to a fool like Mr Collins is unbearable to him, and he resolves to make her a better offer. But, when she refuses him, he finds that he's willing to do anything for love - even marry her without the hope of being with her.

    Summary

    Fourth year was supposed to be simple: a world cup match, a new timetable, and the usual chaos orbiting Harry.

    Instead, Hermione starts noticing the small things everyone else ignores — the legal notices in the back of the paper, the quiet power behind certain families, and the way the rules around underage magic never seem to apply quite the same to everyone.

    Armed with a notebook, a few Muggle “just in case” supplies, and an inconvenient talent for pattern-spotting, she walks into another year at school and straight into the orbit of Theo and Blaise.

    They’re not friends. Not yet. But they have access to the kind of knowledge Hermione’s never been offered, and she has a talent for turning information into leverage.

    Before long, homework is the least important thing they’re working on — and the quiet, hidden parts of the castle matter a lot more than what happens in class.

    Summary

    I never thought to have a child of my own.

    For all my years of study, I knew precious little of childrearing. I’d learned etiquette and decorum in Cereus House; I’d learned dissemination and deception in my Lord Delaunay’s. Joscelin had lived the life typical of a second son in an old-fashioned family, forever knowing where he was bound at the age of ten; he had never expected to face a challenge of this sort.

    But we loved Imriel dearly, and surely that would be enough?
