series masterlist; previous part; next part

The battle had been declared over as Professor Snape swept through the hallways, a gaggle of Death Eaters in tow. You're sat in the Hospital Wing, on a bed adjacent to where Bill Weasley lays motionless. The déjà vu of seeing Ron in his position, albeit less bloody, sends you into a spiralling orbit.

He's sat beside Hermione, who sits near the edge of your bed. He's staring between Bill's near fatal wounds and the injuries littering your own body, eyes laden with something akin to guilt. But he makes no move to approach you, content with gripping Hermione's trembling hands in his own.

After what had felt like ions of time, Ginny bursts through the door with Hagrid and a disheveled Harry in tow. Everyone in the room could see that they all had tears in their eyes.

Hermione was hugging Harry the instant she layed her eyes on him.

"Are you alright, Harry?" Remus' voice is soft and bathed in concern as he anxiously moved towards him.

"I'm fine." He said, and you can see that there is barely a scratch marring his skin. As if he hadn't even been faced with the threat of the raging battle. "How's Bill?"

No one answered his question and you avoided the scrutinising gaze that swept over you as it settled on where everyone had gathered around the eldest son's hospital bed.

Bill's handsome face was entirely unrecognisable. His skin was slashed and ripped apart with gaping wounds that Madame Pomfrey diligently attended to (you knew it was in vain). Scarily, it reminded you of Draco's harrowing wounds and a sick sense of satisfaction coarsed through you when you saw that Harry was clearly thinking the same thing.

"Can't you fix them with a charm or something?" Harry asked the matron, eyes skirting to your's briefly.

"I'm afraid no charm will work on these, dear." she replied despondently. "There is no cure for a werewolf bite."

Your eyes closed with guilt. If only you had turned the corner faster.

"But he wasn't bitten on a full moon." Ron said earnestly as he looked at his brother's marred face as if he could heal it himself with sheer willpower. "Greyback didn't look like he'd transformed. So surely he won't be a real-"

Remus squirmed under Ron's apt attention.

"No, I don't think that Bill will be a true werewolf," he said slowly, and he spares you a passing glance. "But that doesn't mean that there won't be side effects. They will likely never heal completely. Had Meadow not been where she was, he could be fully turned, or worse."

He doesn't have to voice it for everyone to know what he means. If you were not in the right place, at the right time, Bill Weasley would surmount to a name engraved on stone. Instantly you're brought back to the moment that could've been drastically different, had you not rounded the corner when you did.

Antonin Dolohov was relentless in his attack against you. From the moment the Death Eaters began littering the Astronomy corridors like an infestation, he had drawn an imaginary target on your back. He'd caught you unaware as you guarded the corridors, as instructed by Remus, who knew you wouldn't take 'no' for an answer when you'd asked him where you were needed. Dolohov had seen you there and he'd thought you were just a defensless girl who didn't know that she'd just walked head first onto a battlefield. Little did he know, you'd had experience fighting his people, had experience beating them.

He'd severely underestimated you.

"You're merely a sheep in a wolves' fight, girl. Give up now and you can go back to preening in your precious common room. I'll even show you mercy." He'd sneered at you with barely restrained fury and disgust.

So colour him surprised when his cocky taunting was met with a harsh clash of your own power, ebbing and flowing through you and your conduit like a gushing river as you snarled at him.

You'd hit each other with a mix of offensive and defensive spells, both of you sporting painful and aching injuries that gushed with blood. But you felt none of it as you pushed back against his onslaught of unforgivables with spells of your own unconscious making – wordlessly drawing from the magic surrounding you, flicking your wand; causing him to sprout all sorts of oddities, conjured from your imagination. From agonising boils to hulking antlers that caused him to stumble with the added weight that left him off kilter.

Injuries had scarcely evaded you. You knew that you would not walk away unscathed, but you were unprepared for just how bloody and battered you would be. Where you skin was once smooth and silky, littered with only the slightest of imperfections, large lacerations embedded within the tattered scraps of your clothing decorated your stomach, but you ignored the blinding pain in favour of pinning Dolohov to the wall with your power. His eyes were wide with disbelief as you wordlessly stunned him with a final strike of relentlessness.

You watched with a scary amount of glee as he crumbled unceremoniously to the floor.

Not wasting another second, you round the corner that would take you closer to the Astronomy tower; closer to the bloodshed. And that's when you see it.

Fenrir Greyback leaning over an unmoving body, teeth and claws bared for all to see, sticky blood gleaming in the low moonlight as they raise to make the final striking blow. But there's no one here. Only the three of you. You don't even think before you're acting upon instinct.

"No! Get away from them!" you scream, distracting the werewolf momentarily, enough for you to glimpse the eldest Weasley brother's disheveled form. Your stomach drops.

Greyback turns to you with a menacing growl before he's moving towards you at inhumane speed.

"Stupify!" You shout, wand pointing in Greyback's direction. A jet of strong red magic errupts from the tip of your wand, swirling with malicious intent, just barely skimming the creature's shoulder. He snarls at you with narrowed eyes full of unrestrained anger, before he lunges at you with an animalistic roar.

You barely manage to move in the opposite direction, his claws nipping at your side with a lethal grace you barely register. You cry out, but don't let the adrenaline rush, from your previous fight with Dolohov, run dry as you turn to him and push a wave of power that has him stumbling in place.

His beady eyes are zeroed in on you as your magic clashes with his sedulous blows, so he doesn't see the second body creeping on silent feet behind him, until Remus Lupin has knocked him out cold and binded him with a simple leg-locking charm.

"I thought I told you to stay in your designated corridor?" he says raggedly, staring pointedly at you as you lean heavily against the wall.

"Dolohov ambushed me. I couldn't very much stay there." You pant, holding a hand against your side as you stare at the unmoving body between you and your old professor. It's then that your gaze snaps to Bill, who's chest barely rises with a stuttering breath.

"Bill– Greyback was about to ki– to kill him. We have to help him!" You say and Remus follows your gaze, face paling exponentially as he takes in the jagged claw marks that have mutilated the man's handsome features. He sees you hyperventilate and makes the decision to abandon the battle, with you in tow, so that Bill has a fighting chance of getting back to his family and his new fiancé alive.

"We'll take him to the Hospital Wing-" he says resolutely, but at the look on your face, he says, "The battle will go on without us, Meadow. Come, can you manage?"

You nod, despite the pain that rattles you from the inside out. You feel the impenetrable steel of your mental shields cracking and remending itself as you fight to keep out the feeling of pain that was waiting to pounce on you, vision swimming in an ocean of dark spots as you push all your effort into dragging Bill's deadweighted body towards the ward.

You shrank under their gazes as they turned to you, Molly and Arthur in silent gratitude and Fleur (Bill's fiancé) had tears streaming down her perfect cheeks as she nodded gratefully at you. Harry observed your bloody and bruised state before he walked right up to your bed.

"You saved him?" he questioned you, as if he hadn't known you for six years of his life. Hadn't known that you would do anything for the people you love. You scowled at him in disbelief.

"Of course I saved him, Potter." you snap, grimacing at the pull of the wounds on your stomach. "I'm not a monster."

Most of the adults seemed surprised by the coldness that settled between the two of you. Not expecting the hostility that swirled in your eyes. Flinching at the way you spat his surname with distain. Remus' eyes were questioning and the twins exchanged looks of utter confusion as your friendship with Harry used to be so full of light.

Harry looks like he's about to respond to you but Ron's weak voice stops him in his tracks.

"Dumbledore will know something, right? Where is he?"

Ginny and Harry seem to collectively inhale before she reveals something that entirely rocks the axis of the world.

"Ron, Dumbledore is dead."

~∞~

You can't quite believe what you're hearing. Dumbledore is dead.

Dumbledore is dead.

There is a collective guffaw of disbelief as Order members waited for her to withdraw her statement, but you can see it in her eyes and in the way she opens up her mind for you to see the scene.

The downpour of the rain is perfect personification of the devastating loss that even the Earth is affected by.

Dumbledore's body lying motionless in the grass. Eyes closed, cheeks sullen and grey.

The way his limbs had naturally fallen, made it look as if he were only sleeping peacefully.

Albus Dumbledore is dead. Now there was no one to stand in the way of Voldemort's plans.

"How?" Remus' voice is is laden with sadness as he slumps into one of the visitors' chairs that littered the room. Madame Pomfrey was openly sobbing into Professor McGonagall's shoulder, as the latter stared unblinkingly at Harry, tears lining her eyes and falling silently down her cheeks.

"Snape killed him. I saw it happen." Harry said, and your eyes widened, remembering something Mattheo had said only hours ago.

"There are spies everywhere, Granger don't act so surprised."

You spare a glance towards the people that Mattheo had warned earlier that day; all wearing an expression similar to your own, one full of recognition and betrayal.

"We apparated back onto the Astronomy tower. He was weak but I think he realised it was a trap the second we righted ourselves. He immobilised me almost instantly."

He turns to you then, his face and tone of voice accusatory.

"I was under the invisibility cloak, when Malfoy came out of the shadows. He disarmed him and left him defenseless."

Your breathe hitched as Hermione clapped her hands to her mouth.

"More and more Death Eaters were arriving but Snape was the one to do it. He cast the Avada Kedavra but Malfoy was meant to do it."

Draco was sent to kill the most powerful wizard in Britain at the risk of losing his own life.

The echoing sound of sobs filled the Hospital Wing but Harry ignored them and turned his angry gaze to you.

"Did you know?" he asks you, his voice low. "Did you know that your boyfriend was a Death Eater?"

Your breath trembled as you only nodded once. The room went stale and icy, as if a tendril of cold shadows had swept through the ward. They were all looking at you with mistrust, as if you hadn't just risked your life to save one of their own.

"How long?" He was practically stood nose to nose with you, only the metal bed frame stood in his way. "How long have you known about all of them."

"Christmas." you whisper as tears collected in your waterline, the guilt of keeping this knowledge to yourself swallowing you whole. "I've known since Christmas."

"You're a disgrace. You knew this whole time, but didn't say a thing? And you still begged Dumbledore for help? Well look where that got him!" He says angrily and you flinch away as his wand hand extends towards you, but he doesn't get to do whatever it was he was going to do, because Mattheo Riddle is striding into the Hospital Wing with murder singing in his dark, onyx eyes.

"Get. The. Fuck. Away. From. Her." He snarls as he pushes Harry away from you, placing himself in front of you protectively.

Instantly, the Order members who are dotted in every crevice of the Hospital Wing are stood to attention as Mattheo and Harry stare eachother down, wands raised towards the other, ready to swarm in for the kill if Mattheo so much as harmed one hair on the Chosen One's head.

"You got Dumbledore killed." Harry hissed as he raised his steady wand hand towards Mattheo's stoic face.

"Oh? I recall our own Professor Snape performing the killing curse, Potter. You said so yourself. Yet, you did nothing to stop it." Mattheo retorts softly, his own wand hand poised for the kill, as he smirks at Harry surprised face.

You observed him from the bed you were confined to. Physically, he looked fine, not an injury in sight. But you could see it in his eyes, the horror and the guilt festering there.

He was dressed in the same clothes as earlier: jeans and a long sleeved black shirt that emphasised his impressive Beater built, except now he wore a billowing black cloak over the top of it, resembling those which the Death Eaters you'd just fought were wearing. You reach for the arm closest to you, his left one, and you caress it in a familiarly comforting way, fighting the instinctive flinch as your fingers graze the Dark Mark that has been burning against his skin since that afternoon.

"Mattheo? What are you doing here?" Your quiet voice knocks him from the staring contest, and his hard face softens as he finally takes a more thorough look of you. Your clothes are torn, dried blood splattered across the white of your shirt and his brows furrow as onyx eyes roam over your bandaged stomach.

"I tried to reach you." He said in a low voice that betrays the panic he had felt every time he attempted to breech your impenetrable walls. "But you weren't there."

He sounds relieved to know that you were okay. That although injured, you were alive.

"I thought you'd be impressed." You say with a light laugh that doesn't reach your eyes. "I finally managed to block you out without so much as a trace."

His own responding laughter is small and barely heard as he sits on the edge of your bed, ignoring the looks and the glares being sent his way as he takes your face into both of his calloused hands, cradling your jaw with a tenderness that has your heart weeping in your chest. His eyes dart between your own.

"I would be bursting with pride if I hadn't been so worried. I thought you could be dead, love."

His eyes were downcast and there was a sheen of brimming tears reflecting in their onyx depths. Your hand went to cradle his own cheek and he smiled as your fingers gently grazed his under eye.

Your bubble of solitude is popped when the Order members closest to you move to grab him while he was distracted and unaware.

"What are you doing?" You snap at Tonks, who moves away from you with arms raised in surrender, eyes wide as they take a step away from you.

"He's the enemy, Miss Meadow." Mad-Eye sneers at you, but you only form a barrier of indigo around the two of you, that none of them can penetrate without being burned.

"He's quite literally the devil's spawn." Another member, that you don't know the name of, says callously and you thrown her a look of malice.

"And I wonder who tipped you off before the battle even began?" You retort with an air of sarcasm that has the woman rolling her eyes at you.

Looking between the Order members surrounding you, among that annoyingly blank faces, Remus' expression surprises you the most. He looks like he's seen a ghost. Face pale and eyes wide as he stares from Mattheo to you, and back again. He's the only one in the room who looks like he vaguely understands.

"The reason I asked Dumbledore for help was because I thought he would give them sanctuary. They can't escape their families or their fate but I tried. I didn't want to see them dead." You say, words catching in your throat as a sob crawls its way to the surface. Immediately, Mattheo has you wrapped in an embrace; it's awkward and a little unconventional since he's trying not to disturb your wounds, but it's a comfort nonetheless.

Remus' understanding eyes are suddenly awash with sorrow.

"So you're saying that he got the Order to help? Riddle gave us the upper hand?" Ron sounds like he doesn't believe a word you're saying and you don't blame him, not really.

"Yes. He did." Hermione replied and everyone turns to her incredulously. "He came over to us earlier this afternoon and when I told him that Dumbledore wasn't here, he sounded genuinely alarmed."

Heads swivel back and forth between where Mattheo is sat nonchalantly and where Hermione sits. Some Order members were baffled that Hermione was willingly defending someone like him.

"I-it's true." Neville reaffirms and Luna and Ginny both nod. "I didn't quite know what to think of it. But it gave you all the advantage, didn't it?"

"We outnumbered them three to one." Tonks mused as they looked at you with newly formed consideration.

"Yes. They seemed genuinely surprised that we were already waiting for them." Remus muses and steps towards your bed, but pauses at the heat coming defensively off of the barrier that still sang malevolently between you and the Order.

"I've never liked my father's agenda. But he'd kill me and my family if I disobeyed him. The sole purpose of our friendship," Mattheo motions between the two of you, "was for the benefit of them, not me."

"Why would the friendship be mutually beneficial?" Mad-Eye prompts. He still looks untrusting of Mattheo, his voice laden with suspicion.

The two of you share a look of understanding. One that transcends levels that not one person in that room could comprehend.

He's been teaching me Legillimency.

None of the Order members flinch when you enter their minds, being adequately trained in the ability. But Remus is impressed by your level of control and skill as you talk to all of them at once, a small smile gracing his previously sullen face.

"There has to be more." Harry mumbled to himself as he paces. "What of your abilities?" He asks you and he motions towards the indigo energy field that has begun slowly dissipating as the Order members backed off inch by inch.

Mattheo squeezes your interlinked hands and you turn to smile up at him, but he's not looking at you. He's looking between all adults in the room, before settling his eyes on Remus.

"We suspected for a while that Meadow was different." He says and you startle.

What? You ask him wordlessly, incredulity spreading across your features. He still won't look at you, the only response is a tighter grip of your hand. You feel his regret cling to you like a second skin.

"I noticed that she was learning Legillimency early on in fifth year." At the looks of distrust, he clarified. "I'm particularly sensitive to Occlimency. People's thoughts are loud in my head, constantly."

The ability was practically tortured into me. He said that to you, and to you alone.

You squeeze his hand in your's, providing comfort even in the midst of wanting the answers for yourself.

"I also suspected that she had siphon-like abilities around the same time after seeing her excel with wandless and non-verbal magic with ease that only few people possess." He says, turning towards you. He fights the urge to press away the frown on your face with a kiss. He knows that what he's about to confess may destroy any of the trust he had built with you, but you deserve the truth.

Even if it costs him everything.

"When Theo told me that you were his patrol partner last year, I knew that I had a golden opportunity. So I told him to befriend you." He says, his voice low and hoarse, and he hates the way your hand loosens in his hold. "He hated the idea at first because of your affiliation with Potter, and he was only cordial out of obligation. But then something changed. He said that you were kind to him, despite his reluctance. Compassionate and understanding. You listened when he ranted about his father and you were a friend in a time he really needed it. I never wanted any of them to be a part of this, so I told him that I had a plan of sorts to get them all out.

Since the beginning of the year, under the guise of tutor sessions, I've helped her strengthen her ability as a Legillimens in the hopes that if my father ever discovered her abilities, that she would not submit to his mind control and torture. But it was also selfishly in hopes of discovering, for myself, if I was right."

"So the whole time we were searching for answers," you say in a whisper, but he heard the betrayal lacing your tone as if you'd screamed at him, "you knew the whole time? All of you?"

"Yes and I'm sorry I wasn't honest with you, sweetheart. So deeply sorry." He says quietly, his onyx eyes big and wide with the hope that you would show him forgiveness.

"What will your father do if he finds out about me?" You ask, but it's Arthur Weasley who speaks up for the first time since you all entered the Hospital Wing.

"I suspect that, if Dumbledore knew of your powers, that he also knows. It's only a matter of if he knows who you are." His words cut deep, and the look that Mad-Eye gives him tells you that he might have said something he shouldn't.

"Hold on? You all knew?" Harry asks incredulously, and you can't help but agree with your estranged friend. You look around at the adults who look between eachother with wide, panicking eyes.

"Dumbledore mentioned it in a meeting shortly after Katie was cursed." George mumbled, avoiding your scrutinising eye contact. "He'd been keeping a close eye on you. So has Snape."

Harry's attention snaps to George.

"So Voldemort probably already knows about her then."

"That stupid old man doesn't know anything." Mattheo snapped, his knuckles going white with how hard they're clenched shut. "I've made sure of it."

"How?" Remus asks softly, moving closer so that he can sit on the bed beside your's now that your display of magical power had dissipated, putting himself between the Order and Mattheo in the process.

"I knew of his return at the same time as all of you. This-" he lifts the sleeve of his robe up and you reach for his clenching hand instinctively as there are collective gasps of horror echoing around the room. You can't believe he's willingly displaying it.

"Théo-" What are you doing? You prepared to snap at anyone who dared harm him as his sleeve brushes inflamed skin.

Gaining their trust. Or attempting to, at least. By being honest.

The Dark Mark is surrounded by irritated skin where it is inked onto his forearm. The fresh scars melting into the old ones. But the mark is unaffected, twisting and curling as if laughing at his attempts to relinquish it from his body.

"This started to burn as soon as Pettigrew threw him into the cauldron in that graveyard two years ago." Mattheo continues, only locking eyes with you now.

"How do you know about that?" Harry asks with skepicism and Mattheo turns towards him. "You weren't there that night."

"No but my father showed me his rebirth, right after he greeted me, for the first time in fourteen years, by seeing how long I could withstand the cruciatus curse."

"But how is this relevant?" one Order member asks and you fight a snarl from reaching your lips as Mattheo pushes his sleeve down, concealing the Mark from view.

"He knows that there is a siphon in your ranks." He says and he mentally soothes you as you flinch at his words. "But he thinks it's a senior member. He would never suspect a sixth year to harbour so much power. We're not meant to harness that sort of skill yet."

"And how have you been preventing him from finding out?" that same Order member from before sneers and you wandlessly throw up a wall of indigo that has the man bouncing back as he steps forward a little too harshly.

You know without him having to verbalise it. Know what lengths he went to, to protect you and his family. You want to cry, with him and for him and all that he has endured.

"Did you not listen to a word he just said?" You snap at the man, who cowers under the glowing indigo of your gaze. Mattheo's presence is the only thing tethering you to sanity right now.

"The important thing," Remus says, interrupting the tense atmosphere. "Is that he does not know about Meadow. We must keep it that way."

Mattheo nods at his old professor and you can see in his glazed over eyes that they are having a wordless conversation.

She can detect horcruxes, can't she? Remus asks and Mattheo's imperceptive nod gives him the answer he needs.

"I just have one question." Fred speaks up after a lull of uncomfortable silence overtook the ward. He looks deep in thought and there's an undercurrent of curiousity in the way his cerulean eyes dart from you to Mattheo.

"Are you in love with her?"

You expected Fred to be full of jealousy, considering you had been attached at the hip in the previous year. But instead, there's only understanding in the older twin's eyes. Mattheo must see it too, because he doesn't utter a snarky reply like you expect and Fred nods with what you think is approval, at his response.

"Yes. Irrevocably and undeniably."

Your heart flutters in your chest as your cheeks flush at the admission.

You had known for a while. But neither of you had voiced those three words in fear that everything would come crashing down around you. Still, you can feel it deep in your soul as his words settle in your chest.

He loves you. Irrevocably and undeniably, he loves you.

He had been under the impression that he'd inherited his father's curse. Never being able to fall in love. But his mother must live on in him somehow. Because he can feel it like it's a separate entity attaching itself to his heart by a thread that had been slowly stitching it together overtime.

Although many of your friends are looking at him in a new light, even Ron who finds himself squeezing Hermione's still trembling hands with his own, the people in that room did not trust the Riddle heir; many were wary of the Dark Mark that marred his skin like a deathly omen. But Remus can see the ghost of another in the way Mattheo acts and he knows that Regulus Black would be proud of what Mattheo has been doing right under his father's watchful eye.

He can only hope that you remain hidden in plain sight, long enough to give them a fighting chance.

For now, he has decided that he needs to cash in an age old favour from the one person he is certain can help your friends; Andromeda Tonks was more than happy to help.

I'm going down a Cho rabbit hole rn!! Do you have any Cho fic recs?? I'd love to read more Cho

hello anon, welcome to the rabbit hole, just wanted to let you know that this is one of those asks i dream about getting because cho chang? oft-overlooked-and-underappreciated-in-fandom cho chang?? why yes i would LOVE to stand on this soapbox and talk endlessly about her and my favorite writings that feature her <3

i get that a lot of the pairings featured in these fics/drabbles are very not mainstream lol but please don’t let that scare you off because honestly?? these are all a mix of fun, brilliant, stunning, transcendent stories and i have spent approximately a million hours thinking about each one of these because the character building and emotional payoff and dimensional portrayal of cho is overwhelmingly just so satisfying. so capable of filling that void canon left. so chef’s kiss.

gonna do my best to pick a line from each fic/drabble that i think does a good job of capturing its ✨ essence ✨ so. here we gooo. (mature/explicit fics noted with an asterisk * ).

record scratch * by @provocative-envy — modern, best man and maid of honor au (cho x marcus flint)

“You and Cho—my best and dearest and most precious friend in the world, Cho—you know each other, don’t you?” Marietta asks, just a bit too sweetly.

There’s a beat of awkward silence, then, and Cho very responsibly avoids the heavy, frantic weight of Marcus’s gaze, which has suddenly—coolly—intently—snapped over to her.

“so it starts at the tail end of the war...” by @provocative-envy — canon divergent au (cho x marcus flint) 

“i don’t want to get away,” she tells him, wincing at the strain on her vocal chords. “this is–this is it, can’t you feel it? this is how it ends.”

good behavior by @provocative-envy — canon divergent, postwar au, also the sequel to the above drabble (cho x marcus flint)

Well, his “muggle integration counselor” needs to be able to find him.

“marcus flint knows a lot about destruction...” by @provocative-envy — high school au (cho x marcus flint)

“I’m bad at math,” he blurts out, jaw working as he folds his arms over his chest. He feels defensive. Frustration prickles a familiar dance across his scalp. “This is, like, my third time taking trig. They always—I get lost when that fucking—when the circle thing with the dotted lines shows up.”

tick tick boom by @provocative-envy — superhero au (cho x marcus flint)

Cho Chang now works for the nonprofit across the street, a legal defense fund for superheroes who aren’t lucky enough to have corporate sponsors or full-fledged PR teams.

Marcus sees her, occasionally.

heads or tails * by @provocative-envy — thief acquaintances au (cho x marcus flint)

“We aren’t jack shit, sweetheart,” she mimics obnoxiously. “Yes, I know.”

His nostrils flare. “What’s the fucking problem, then?”

flying before falling by andtheyfightcrime — canon compliant (cho x cedric diggory)

Cho sniffs, "Maybe we just think there's more to hello than sticking your tongue down someone's throat." Cedric groans at that and says, "You shatter my illusions, Chang. We could have been in Hufflepuff together."

fifty ways by andtheyfightcrime — canon compliant (cho x cedric diggory)

Being in like with Cedric is a lot like being friends with him, only with more private smiles and demure nods.

big head boy by @cocoartistwrites — university au (cho x percy weasley)

She makes him nervous, with her shiny hair and her firm, straight brows and her piercing dark eyes and the haughty way she argues with him, and how she slams everything he says, how she sounds like his sister, Ginny, sometimes, when Ginny hears him talking, how assured she is, how angry, how sometimes she argues with their tutor – their brilliant, famous tutor – once, memorably, calling him an outdated sexist pig and –

“the thing about cho chang...” by @provocative-envy — zombie survival au (cho x cormac mclaggen)

Out of everyone? Back at camp? That he could’ve gotten trapped in a fucking abandoned Bass Pro Shop with? While a horde of fucking razor-talon zombies mashed their rotting gray faces up against the tastefully organized display windows?

Cho Chang would not have been Cormac’s first choice.

the sweet spot by @provocative-envy​ — modern, celebrity au (cho x cormac mclaggen)

His smile is authentic in ways that she doubts he’s aware of, in ways that she doubts he’s even capable of understanding, and it unnerves her a little bit, having all that energy, all that intensity, all that smug, self-fulfilling excitement directed right at her, totally unfiltered.

hiding in plain sight by @mxrcusflint — high school au (cho x cormac mclaggen)

Cormac McLaggen, she thinks, has probably broken more hearts than earned A’s.

descent (or how to stop being a national hero) by watername — canon divergent au (cho x viktor krum if you squint, but also not really)

At the second task, when the competitors dive beneath the lake, he drums his fingers against the railing and wonders what kind of person inspires such loyalty.

when the lights go out by thatdarkhairedgirl — second war resistance au (cho x viktor krum)

He missed her. He’s known her for less than a year and he missed her.

flights of fancy by namelessamelie — canon divergent au (cho x draco malfoy)

“You don’t have to defend him,” he interrupted, cutting her off. “Potter’s not as wonderful as he’d have everyone believe, and you know that better than anyone.” Then, before he’d fully thought it through, he added impulsively, “One hero isn’t a replacement for another.”

caught by blood sugar love — canon divergent, postwar, rebellion au (cho x draco malfoy)

Cho blinks. "I mean... I-I sit, and I think about it. How much you've ruined everything. It's really amazing, when I tally it all up. How much you owe. Especially if your father dies."

the sporting life * by blythely — canon divergent au (cho x pansy parkinson)

Cho wins but it's probably because on the last match point Pansy is looking at Cho rather than at the ball.

seeking * by Gelsey — postwar, ministry au (cho x charlie weasley)

“Fucker,” she said, righting her clothes in quick, economical movements, though her hands were trembling. She tossed her hair.

a moment’s silence (happens grace, happens sweet) by disinclinant — second war order au (cho x charlie weasley)

“I’ve no idea who you are,” Charlie replies, amused and vaguely charmed by this explanation of how she knows him through the process of elimination.

moon walk * by @provocative-envy — modern au (cho x antonin dolohov)

She stares at him for a minute, blatantly astonished and visibly apprehensive, and then she blushes. Hard. Gnaws on her lower lip and sweeps her eyes from his face to his chest and—very, very quickly—even lower.

even the score * by themidnightguardian — olympics au (cho x ginny weasley)

It’s a tepid rivalry at best—something that’s fierce on the field and almost entirely absent off it—and they’ve only spoken a handful of words to each other since their college days, but when it comes to women’s soccer, the Chang-Weasley rivalry is the hot gossip because it’s the only gossip.

Which is why twitter loses its shit when they both make the Olympic team.

that’s what she said by @provocative-envy — hockey au (cho x ginny weasley)

“Hey, why don’t you like me?”

Cho’s face twitches oddly. Defensively. “Why don’t I—excuse me?”

playing favourites by Slumber — postwar, healer au (cho x oliver wood)

The first time Cho catches Oliver Wood wandering St Mungo's ward nowhere near his own, he at least has the grace to look embarrassed.

George Weasley x Reader

Masterlist

After your battle with Umbridge had seemed to die off, your mood definitely changed for the better. You and George were not arguing anymore, and with evenings that you didn’t have to spend at detention you were able to catch up with your studies as well. All was well, until one morning in February you opened the Daily Prophet at breakfast and choked on your eggs and bacon.

“What?” asked George immediately. You shoved the paper in front of them as Fred leaned closer, too.

“Escaped Death Eaters?” said Fred. “Look — They blame Sirius for it!”

You looked at the pictures of the ten Death Eaters who — according to the paper — had broken out of Azkaban last night. Your eyes fell upon an extremely nasty one.

“Antonin Dolohov,” you read. “Convicted of the brutal murders of Gideon and Fabian Prewett… Is that —?”

“It is,” said George darkly. He exchanged looks with Fred.

“D’you think your mum’s all right?” you asked carefully. “Maybe… I don’t know, maybe you should write to her.”

“Why?” asked Fred.

“To make sure she’s okay! It must be horrible for her!”

“Sure,” shrugged George darkly. “If you think it’s a good idea.”

“I think you’d make her feel better.”

George stroke your cheek gently before standing up from the table.

“You’re so kind, you know that?” then he left with Fred to the owlery.

After reading the article about the prisoners you felt a certain sense of danger. Evil was approaching, and you wanted to do everything in your power to be ready when it arrives. During the DA lessons you worked harder than ever, and when you started combat training, you always made sure to give the best performance you could. Numerous times you were practising with Ginny, eagerly watched by others how the two of you sent curses and counter-curses at each other; just like how in a real battle would be.

You watched enviously as Ginny’s silver horse was running around above your heads. You had just started the patronus charm and more and more people in the room were able to conjure their own. Ginny looked at you, nodding encouragingly.

“Just think about something happy.”

“I’m trying,” you said with gritted teeth.

“Think about my brother,” she said with a teasing grin.

“Never mind that, I just can’t stay focused long enough.”

“Try again.”

You scowled in concentration. You were searching for memories in your mind. The first that came to you was when the two of you had been walking in Hogsmeade, feeding a big black dog.

“Expecto Patronum!”

Silvery smoke puffed out of your wand. You looked at it hopefully, fighting to forget how you had been lying in bed after that certain Hogsmeade trip, devastated, thinking that George doesn’t like you a bit.

Your smoke wanished.

“That wasn’t a really good memory,” said Ginny.

“Shut up, let me think.”

You looked around in the room, looking for the twins. They were standing next to each other, investing a great amount of work into the spell. You smiled to yourself. Even though they did not care about a lot of things, they worked extremely hard for those that they did.

George realised you were watching them and looked up, grinning. You beamed at him. He winked and you let out a small chuckle. You remembered the spell you had to say. ‘Expecto Patronum’.

You felt a sudden vibration from your wand and a very nice, warm feeling throughout your  whole arm. You looked down in surprise and saw the silvery smoke again. You had almost done it. Just a little more… You concentrated and said the spell out loud again.

“Expecto Patronum!”

A beautiful form of light in the shape of a greyhound burst out of your wand and shot gracefully into the air. It ran a circle around you and Ginny, then lowered itself to the floor, standing next to you. Your mouth fell open and Ginny shouted in excitement.

“Amazing, Y/N!”

You looked back at George who was watching your patronus in absolute delight. He raised his wand, too, looked deeply in your eyes and let his silver coyote join your greyhound, Ginny’s horse and Fred’s hyena. Maybe it was due to the patronuses in the room, maybe because of something else, but you were sure you had rarely felt happier than in this moment.

——

Weeks flew quickly as Umbridge’s new regime took over the school. After she had busted the DA and Dumbledore had left, Fred and George made sure to welcome the new Headmistress accordingly. Fireworks on corridors and loud bangs in the middle of lessons were usual at this point; just as the night time celebrations in the common room after particularly efficient pranks.

Easter holiday was about to end; you had just recieved Mrs Weasley’s chocolate eggs which were filled with delicious caramel. You had eaten the last piece of them on Sunday morning, before you headed down to have breakfast. You were still half asleep as you reached the Great Hall, but jerked awake the moment you saw an unfamiliar face next to a very familiar one. A Ravenclaw girl — who you rarely saw on corridors but once had asked you how was it being together with a Weasley twin — was having something with George which just didn’t seem like a friendly conversation at all.

He was eating with one hand, writing on a parchment with his other, deep in thought, while the girl was talking eagerly about something while leaning quite close to him. He nodded rather absent-mindedly and mumbled something in response. The girl took it as a good sign to touch his shoulder and giggle loudly. You frowned and walked towards them; when she saw you she said something to George then went back to her own table. You eyed her with a frown until she sat down, then joined your boyfriend at the Gryffindor table. When George saw you, too, a smile appeared on his face and he reached for a mug to pour you some coffee.

“Morning, sweet — ”

Your lips cut him off as you kissed him, tasting coffee and butter on his tongue. He froze with the mug in his hand, but didn’t hesitate much; he kissed you back just as quickly, pulling you closer by the nape of your neck. When you pulled away, he looked dizzy.

“I could get used to this,” he mumbled dreamily. “What was that for?”

“Who was that?” you said sharply, taking the mug from his hands.

“Who was who?”

“That girl.”

“What girl?”

“That Ravenclaw girl, she was just here.”

George shrugged.

“I don’t know. Some Liz or Louise… She wanted to buy our Skiving Snackboxes.”

“She clearly fancies you,” you said with a tone.

You wondered why was this sentence so familar to you; then you remembered that George had said something similar to you when McLaggen had been nagging you. George’s lips curled into a cheeky smile; he seemed to remember, too.

“Witty?” he said, smirking.

“What?” you snapped.

“Jealous?”

“Shut up,” you said, rolling your eyes. He wheezed.

“My sweet baby,” he kissed you on the cheek.

“Shut up,” you said again, but this time softly. He had smiled against the corner of your mouth before putting another kiss there. Then he sat up straight, his face turning serious.

“Listen, can I talk to you later?”

You looked at him with a start.

“Something’s wrong?”

“No, no, everything’s fine,” he sad with a reassuring smile. “I just want to tell you something but I don’t have the time right now. Meet you before lunch? The Room?”

He was already standing up, ready to leave. You nodded.

“Okay. Meet you there.”

You were supposed to focus on your homework but you were just too interested watching the wind blowing a loose piece of thread stuck on the windowsill. Down in the park you saw a couple of boys and girls throwing a frisbee around, racing each other on who’d get it first. You chuckled in silence.

The common room felt unusually empty and quiet and you knew very well why. You were hoping, though, that you were wrong; but you knew the twins that much to read the signs. You just wanted to push the thing aside for as long as you could, but George had already arranged meeting with you. There was no way back.

You left for the Room with a heavy heart, but you didn’t want to make him wait. Thirty minutes to lunch, you pressed down the handle of the door behind which you were expecting the news.

You saw him at once; he was waiting for you, standing in the middle of the room, his hands in his pockets. When his eyes met yours he smiled warmly and opened his arms to invite you into his embrace. You did not hesitate; leapt over the distance between the two of you and let him welcome you in a hug.

The two of you stood in silence for a minute. George was acting as though he didn’t want to start talking just yet. Maybe he had figured out… he had realized that you knew and was scared of your opinion? Or were you just paranoid and he was just about to talk about something completely different?

It was you, who broke the silence.

“Just tell me.”

“I’m… I’m sure you know already.”

“I want to hear it from you.”

But he didn’t answer. He let out a deep sigh and placed his cheek on the top of your head. He was still holding you close in his arms. You bit your tongue, but forced the question out anyway.

“You’re leaving, aren’t you?”

“Yes.”

You nodded and he started gently stroking your hair.

“I knew it was gonna happen,” you said. “I’ve had this feeling for a while. Since you were banned from quidditch. I knew the day would come. Is today that day?”

“No. But soon.”

You nodded again. You didn’t want to think about it too much, you just wanted to accept it and move on.

“I won’t stop you,” you said. “I know you don’t want to stay.”

“How about you?”

“What do you mean?”

“Do you want to stay?”

You looked up at him, at his freckled face, into his beautiful brown eyes. You tilted your head with a sad smile.

“You know I can’t go. I still have next year to finish.”

“I know. It was worth a try.”

He gently brushed your cheek with his index finger.

“I’m really going to miss you,” he said.

“I’m really going to miss you, too.”

“Will you remember me?”

You snorted.

“What kind of stupid question is that?”

“Just curious,” he reached into his pocket and pulled out something what seemed like a necklace with a small stone. “But perhaps this’ll remind you, that you have a handsome ginger chap  waiting for you somewhere.”

You chukled and took the necklace into your hand. You examined it curiously. The little stone was shaped like a trapeze and in your palm it turned into a nice shade of light pink.

“So what’s this?”

“It’s a crystal, a very rare one. I have it’s only true pair on me,” he showed you his wrist on which was a bracelet with a small stone identical to yours in both shape and color. “The two exist as one. They’re connected. Whenever you touch it and think of me, mine will glow. Same thing goes for yours.”

“Show me,” you said, throat dry.

“Here.”

He closed his palm over the tiny crystal and closed his eyes. For a few seconds nothing happened, then you started to feel a growing heat from the crystal in your hand. Its color was changing as well, it became more and more of a bighter pink.

“Every time one of us thinks of the other —”

“They’ll know,” you whispered, totally in awe. Then your expression darkened.

“What’s wrong?” asked George. “You don’t like it? I thought —”

“No, it’s not that, I… I love it, but… George, where did you get this, this must’ve been very expensive…”

“Never mind that,” he said, closing your fingers on your crystal and kissing your hand. “It was worth every last sickle.”

“Well, I don’t want you to spend your last sickles on me.”

“It’s all right love. This time next year we’ll be richer than the Minister for Magic,” a certain kind of excitement came back to his face. “I cannot wait to show you the shop, it’s gonna be brilliant.”

“Oh, I know,” you nodded. “As brilliant as you are.”

You kissed him lovingly, standing on your toes. God, you were going to miss him so much.

“You have to say goodbye before you leave,” you said sternly. “Both you and Fred. You might as well tell him that.”

“I will,” he said. “I’m sure he wants to say goodbye, too.”

It's time to decide whose naughty birthday wishes you'd like to make come true! Below you'll find a numbered list of all the wishes submitted by our members. As is par for the course around here, there's a huge variety: het, femslash, and slash from every generation, romantic themes to dark ones, and, of course, loads of different kinks. They range from a little bit naughty to thoroughly filthy. Something for everyone! In order to make a claim, simply reply to this post and tell us the number of the wish you'd like to fulfill. Comments are screened to preserve anonymity. Each wish can be claimed only once, and as they're taken they'll be struck off the list. We'll be monitoring the post closely and crossing out wishes as they're claimed. If the prompt you pick has already been taken, we'll let you know right away; otherwise you can assume you got the wish you wanted. Members you have a 24 hour "head start" to make your claims before watchers join in. Watchers: a post will go up at 12:00 pm (U.S. Eastern time) tomorrow (January 10th) to let you know you may begin claiming wishes. Also note: If all of the wishes appear to be disappearing before the member period is over, don't panic! We have ways to make plenty of options available if and when the need arises. Note about dealbreakers: You might see a lot of "SPEW" scattered amongst the dealbreakers. That's our acronym for "the usual" hard kinks: Scat, necroPhilia, Emetophilia, and Watersports. This is not intended as a value judgment regarding "good" or "bad" kinks (although it is meant to be at least a tiny bit funny...); it's just an attempt to save space on the (already quite long!) list of wishes. Completed pieces are due by Monday, March 28 and should be emailed to [email protected]. Fic must be a minimum of 1,000 words and art must be a completed piece. Both fic and art must merit at least an R rating. No crossovers permitted. Watchers: your pieces must fit into a single IJ post. The mods reserve the right to refuse any fic that contains significant SPAG problems or art that appears to be a last-minute slap-dash sketch, so be sure to plan ahead and find a reliable beta. Headers for both fic and art will become available a little closer to April.

Hey, I saw that you enjoy a lot of HP fics and if you could indicate some with rare pairs to me? I saw that you read some with Molly and Lucius. I was so surprised but really curious about it. I had never thought of them as a pair, but it would be such a different and delicious pair.

Hey! I’ll gladly give you some of my fave rare pair recs! I also have some that I haven’t personally read but that have been recommended to me over and over, so I’ll add those too.

I did go through a short Molly x Lucius phase, and sadly didn’t find many fics, but there were a couple of one shots I read that were really good!

Warrior by deslea

The Barefoot Rebellion by Arkady

I also realllly like Ginny x Lucius, and they’re a hard pairing to find fics for. There’s one author called fury-shashka who I found a few months ago who writes them beautifully. 

The Radiant is a longer story of the pairing, and I really enjoyed it.

Puuko is a real dirty one shot that is just *drools*

That author also has some other fics on their page, and the ones I’ve read have all been great.

Funny you speak of rare pairs, because just last week I read a fic that I saw recommended in a HP group that was a pairing I had never before considered. However, I was curious, so gave it a try, and ended up binging the entire thing in a day. It’s Luna x Voldemort, and it’s pretty dark.

 Twelve Dark Moons by Sophiax

I also dabbled briefly in the Fenrir x Hermione ship because I was recommended a Biker AU fic, and it was actually quite good! I imagined Jason Momoa as Fenrir (he’s the actor a lot of Fenrir writers seem to channel) and it made enjoying the ship reallll easy.

Over the Hills and Far Away by Nautical Paramour

That author also has a few other Fenrir x Hermione stories on their page.

Hermione/Charlie is a rare pair I’m a bit interested in. I started this fic, which was super hot, but I got distracted by other fics so I haven’t finished it yet. 

Begging for Thread by Kittenshift17

That author has a TON of fics, and of various ships, a lot of which are rare pairs. I’m also in a FB group called The Death Eater Express, of which that author is one of the admins, and the group has files with tons of fic recs. I know rare pairs with characters like Theo Nott, Antonin Dolohov, the Lestrange brothers, etc. are frequently advertised in that group.

Also, there’s a rare pair fic that I see recommended A LOT in FB groups but I haven’t taken the plunge yet. It’s Hermione x Kingsley, and it’s supposedly a-ma-zing:

The Minister’s Secret by Canimal 

Anddd another rare pair fic I see recommended A LOT is a time turner one that I think starts out with Hermione x Lupin than converts to Hermione x Sirius (I’m not a Sirius fan so I haven’t read it, but people rave about it).

The Debt of Time by ShayaLonnie

My main ships for HP are Snamione and Lumione, but idk if those are really considered “rare pairs” (maybe Lumione would be). If you’re at all interested in some recs for those ships, I’ve made a couple of posts with my favorite fics I’ve read so far. You can find those HERE, HERE, and HERE 

Hopefully some of these are helpful and interest you :D Enjoy!

WIP!

I was tagged by the very talented and ridiculously sweet @nauticalparamour to talk about my current WIPs…Thanks for tagging me, Dear!

Bound to the Light [Hermione Granger x Remus Lupin]

My first successful multichapter! This is a story about what you will do for someone your love, and each character shows it in a different way. One is willing to leave the only way of life she’s ever known. One is willing to put aside his reservations and help a society that wants nothing more than to see him dead. One is willing to learn to accept himself for what he does, not what he is. At the end of the day are they willing to give up enough to change the outcome of the war?

> Werewolf!Hermione,  Parent!Fenrir AU

Ferocity [Hermione Granger x Antonin Dolohov]

This one is still heavily in the planning stages. I feel like this story is going to be aa lot more complex than I originally thought. When Hermione ends up carrying the child of the Dark Lord she finds herself in the center of a new prophecy and on the run from the dark and light sides. Escaping, she is taken in by the underground resistance and finds that the people who make up the resistance aren't who she’d imagined. When it’s found that there is a mole in the ranks, Hermione is sent off to a remote part of Russia with just her two protectors for company. She immediately finds a friend in Reuben Yaxley, but can she ever get on with the stoic Russian man that has previously tried to kill her not once, but twice? And what happens when Hermione decides the only way to provide a life for her baby is to end the war herself?

> Post-Hogwarts AU, Enemies to Lovers, Hermione is a bad ass, Order/Dumbledore/Weasley bashing, This fic will be full of rare pairs <3

Bound to You [Fenrir Greyback x Calia Malfoy (OC)]

I am unsure if this is going to be a one-shot or a short multi-chapter yet. What I do know is this fic is going to show how Fenrir and Calia came to be. It’ll cover her relationship with her family and her betrothed and their reactions to her leaving them behind for Fenrir.  If it’s a one shot it’ll end at their bonding, but a multi-chapter will end with Calia finding tiny Hermione in the woods.

> Prequel to Bound to the Light, Romance with some drama

Kiss is all better [Hermione Granger x Draco Malfoy]

I actually have this one shot completely written, it just needs more editing. This is a tragic story about a man’s reaction to losing the love of his life.

> Super sad tearjerker

Her Gilded Cage (Name pending)  [Hermione Granger x Fenrir Greyback]

This is an idea that has been in the back of my mind for a while, but I haven’t done much with. It’s going to be an AU where Albus Dumbledore is the king of the great Kingdom of Hogsmeade. When the Dark Kind Voldemort, from the Kingdom of Knockturn, begins attacking them King Dumbledore seeks the help of a pack of werewolves from the nearby woods. In order to secure the help, he gives his only daughter’s hand in marriage to the leader of the wolves. Hermione is not impressed by being used as a bargaining tool and makes it known to both her father and new husband. What she doesn’t expect is her new husband to open her eyes to the world she didn’t know existed.

> Kingdom AU?, Werewolves, Drama with a whole lot of Romance.

Lightning Round:

Unnamed: Dudley/Hermione - When traveling after the final battle, Hermione meets who she thinks is the perfect guy for her. They have a wonderful month long relationship but he breaks it off when his family finds out she's a witch. Heartbroken, Hermione returns to the wizarding world, only to find out she’s pregnant. Imagine her surprise when 3 years later she shows up to Harry’s home for Christmas, only to find herself face to face with the father of her child, Harry’s cousin Dudley.  

Unnamed: Dramione/Hansy- Draco and Harry are sent Into the future to live for a week. Nothing is as they'd expect.

Unnamed: Harry x Hermione - After becoming very close during their time alone while hunting Horcruxes Hermione expects after the final battle she and Harry will be together. She finds herself heartbroken when he declares his feelings for Ginny. Taking the first job she can in an attempt to escape her heartbreak, Hermione soon relocates to France. Through the years she remains very close with Ron, and is ecstatic when he asks her to stand as one of his “Best Men”, that is until she finds out who she’ll have to be standing beside. Can she put aside old feelings for her best friend’s big day, or will Harry show her that he’s realized the mistake he’s made? And where does Draco Malfoy fit into all of this?

 Please, please, please let me know which ideas are your favorites! <3 :D
