It's 1978 and Mary's anything but prepared for what lies beyond Hogwarts. She ends her final year with an unexpected heartbreak and she's set for an apprenticeship at St Mungo's, where she's going to start training to be a healer. Her friends are all determined to join a secret organisation to fight against Voldemort and hard as she tries, she doesn't get it, their insistence on risking their lives for something that's bigger than them. But she loves them anyway and moves in with Marlene McKinnon into her brother's flat in London.
Or, more simply put, The Hand That Feeds and The Heart That Bleeds by Rollercoasterwords from Mary's perspective.
