Ships: Marlene McKinnon/Sirius Black, Marlene McKinnon/Sirius Black/Remus Lupin, Sirius Black/Remus Lupin
A spiked drink starts Sirius' heat while Remus is too far away to provide any relief. So he turns to his best friend for help.

Ship: Pansy Parkinson/Neville Longbottom
The first time Pansy Parkinson looks in his window is an accident.
Or: Four evenings in Hogsmeade, inspired by Taylor Swift’s Tortured Poets Department album.

Ship: Regulus Black & Sirius Black
Sirius and Regulus made a pinky promise that they would always stay together.
But with time passing the promise got broken and all that is left is the question "is it something I did?"
📜 Tell Me Something by Hope_Belle
Ship: Hermione Granger/Draco Malfoy
Two years after the war, the Ministry launched The Cultural Reconciliation Initiative, anonymously assigning a Muggle-born to a convicted Death Eater for regular correspondence as a part of their probation.
Hermione is locked away in her secret garden of books and predictability, enrolled in The Healer Academy in Edinburgh and set on being normal.
Draco has never been normal but after standing trial, discovering Muggle London, and befriending Neville Longbottom of all people, he's even less so. Studying for his Potions Mastery in Paris was always a part of the plan but realizing his anonymous pen pal is Hermione Granger? That was certainly not.

Ship: Bellatrix Black Lestrange/Rita Skeeter
Rita Skeeter is a broke journalist and all she wants is a good story and a paycheck. She catches the eye of Bellatrix Black and ends up far more invested and intrigued than she had ever planned to be.
But at the end of the day, she's a journalist, and she has a job to do.
𓇢𓆸 turn your back on mother nature by @poetskings
Ship: Regulus Black/James Potter
The first thing he notices is the beach view. For what the shitty motel cost, it’s really quite stunning. The sea is rough but welcoming, a deep, dark blue that contrasts with the red flags fluttering in the light breeze.
Regulus makes his way over to the window, opening it and feeling the breeze wisp through his hair, so soft it feels like a caress. Hello, it says, are you ready for what comes next?
Or, James has been chasing storms for as long as he's known what a storm is, and Regulus is his favourite one to chase.
