Summary
Early in Ted’s tenure as coach, Sam and Jamie end up as roommates during an away game. That night Sam discovers Jamie is suicidal after Jamie asks him to sit with him, feeling like he might kill himself if he’s left alone. Jamie thinks Sam will leave him be afterwards, but Sam can’t just let Jamie walk away knowing all this, it wouldn’t be right.
Sam’s attempt to look out for Jamie, even if Jamie thinks it’s not necessary, pushes him to become more confident and assertive, stepping up as a leader. Meanwhile, Jamie is pushed to be more open by Sam refusing to let him go on as if any of this is okay or normal. As their friendship develops, Jamie grapples with his childhood trauma, while Sam works through how he feels about becoming friends with someone who has bullied him in the past, as well as figuring out how to feel about the fact that Ted and Roy are imperfect people too, especially when it comes to how they approach Jamie.
AKA the Sam and Jamie season 1 friendship au with suicidal!Jamie

Summary
Steve Harrington was a name nearly everyone in Hawkins had heard—spoken with admiration in the hallways, with annoyance by teachers who’d learned to brace for trouble, and with that particular kind of envy people saved for those who looked like they had it all.
But before he'd been Steve, he'd been Seven.
Or
How Steve reunites with his long lost sister, fights monsters, and gains a family.

Summary
“I’d like to ask you something, Jamie. What do you think an apology is for?”
Jamie blinks, narrows his eyes, gives the doctor a funny look. “Like, for saying you’re sorry, obviously?”
Dr. Sharon nods, considering his words. She reaches for her mug and takes another sip of coffee. “And, what happens after you say it?”
“They forgive you. Well, hopefully. Then everyone feels better?”
“And if they don’t?”
Jamie hesitates. He realizes that he’d never actually considered the possibility of being unforgiven, that it must’ve meant he fucked up and would have to try another way.
“Then…I did it wrong…?”
Basically just a bunch of missing apology scenes from when Jamie comes back to Richmond (I realize they did have Jamie apologize to all the players but just wanted to dive more into them, and the people he didn't apologize to) (also like my last fic for this series this can 100% be read as a standalone and has no a/b/o so everyone can enjoy)Series

Summary
Harry would really rather sleep. The waking world involves a woman's scream as nightmare monsters try to take his soul, the fire of venom through his veins, and the feel of ashes on his fingertips. He's tired of his peers' scorn, of his teachers' indifference (or literal homicidal rages).
The defense teacher is a cause for concern, he's found. (Yes, Hermione, he did listen to the "correlation does not equal causation” lecture. Really! He's just-being cautious, that's all!)

Summary
There are days Rebecca wondered where she would be if not for a stray handbag and the cement floor that was harder than her late and vastly unlamented husband's head.
Mostly she doesn’t care, and while it isn’t perfect the universe has given her a life that has everything she’s ever wanted and she doesn’t want to waste a second of it thinking about ‘what ifs’.

Summary
If he'd stayed a footballer, he doesn't know if he'd have made it to this age. He'd have been fucking miserable, he's rather sure— dealing with Dad, living in the public eye, pushing his body to its limits, never really getting a break. He'd not have found out that he actually is quite smart when he works for it, and that he can make proper friends who don't just follow him around because they think he's the shit. He'd not have found the sense of freedom and independence and normalcy that he's come to enjoy.
Going to uni was the right thing to do, and now he's off to work a job he loves, and he never has to fucking worry about scoring goals ever again. Life is perfect, he's quite sure.

Summary
Harry isn’t the Boy-Who-Lived, but his parents still died, and Albus Dumbledore, concerned that Death Eaters might seek the boy’s death, cast a powerful charm on him to make wizards ignore him before Harry was left with the Dursleys. Except, with the Elder Wand in play, the charm was far too powerful, and made others essentially forget Harry existed when not directly interacting with him. Sorted into Ravenclaw at Hogwarts, Harry lives a contented life with no one either loving or hating him…until the charm breaks on his seventeenth birthday, and he’s suddenly plunged directly into the middle of a living world at war.

Summary
“Mr. Evans,” Ollivander said, smiling wider. “Any relation to Lily Evans?”
“Who?”Harry Evans was almost like any other boy growing up in Cokeworth. He lived alone in a house nobody else could see, he stole food from the supermarket and never got caught, and he had a little brother who had been hidden after the night their mother was killed. Harry was a secret, and he promised not to tell.
A letter in an empty vault, a small boy with broken glasses, a portrait of a scowling girl. As Harry begins unraveling his own past, the threat against his brother grows.
How long will his secrets keep when Harry is the only one standing between his brother and the world?
A story about family, friendship, growing up, and, of course, the most powerful magic of all

Summary
Ron knows who he is: the sixth of the seven Weasley siblings. Hogwarts, for him, was inevitable. Gryffindor assumed. He knows his wand is second hand, and his rat, and his robes third, books fourth or fifth or so, and he knows the Professors are going to call him Fred or George or Percy or Charlie or Bill. He knows that most everyone can take one look at him and see all of that. And in some ways, it makes it easier, to never have to prove anything.
The rest of the world, though, it's not so certain. The World Cup was the best day of Ron's life, until the horrible night that followed. Azkaban was supposed to keep history locked up tight, until Sirius Black escaped. Hogwarts was supposed to be the most amazing experience, until Snape started assigning homework. And Harry Potter—
But who is Ron kidding? He should just keep his head down, stick with Seamus and Dean, and be glad he knows who he is, at least.

Summary
Hermione Granger has never quite lived up to anyone's expectations of her, but, then, the world has consistently failed to live up to her expectations, too. None of that matters now, of course—
because Hermione is absolutely, irrefutably, one hundred percent going to turn her life around when she gets to Hogwarts. She’ll go to every class, even if what’s not on the curriculum is the more important part; she’ll never talk back, she won’t go getting into any trouble at all. She’ll never even have a late fee on a book. Because otherwise…
What’s the point? What’s the point of being magical, if she gets herself kicked out of school—again? That’s what her parents are afraid of.
No choice is really easy, and no path safe from the looming threats of an uncertain future and the not-so-distant past. In the stretching summer before Hogwarts, Hermione begins to unravel what it means to be born in one world, belonging to another.

Until then, he stumbles on, two steps forward and one step back, out of the cupboard and into the life he was never meant to have.

Summary
“What if I don’t want to choose?” Keeley asked, even though she knew that was impossible. She would have to make a choice, even if it was to value her friendship with both over choosing either of them.
“What? Like date both of us at once until you figure it out?” Jamie asked.
Roy was staring at Jamie now. Or maybe glaring. It was hard to tell.
“What if I just want two boyfriends?” she asked.
She had meant it as a joke to try to lighten the mood. But as soon as the words left her mouth, she wanted to take them back.
They weren’t laughing. They didn’t look like they thought she was joking.
Set after season 3. Keeley doesn't know what to do about having feelings for both Roy and Jamie. They agree to her having separate relationships with each of them, but as time goes on the lines between Roy and Jamie get more and more blurred.

Mannion smiled, all teeth. "I want Richmond to suffer for the harm you've done to me. You can either choose to lose as an organization...or lose personally. This is all down to you, Tartt. For any match you score a single goal, I will release one of these stories."
Or: Blackmail, rumors, and Rupert Mannion are going to tank Richmond's first season post-Ted. And Jamie is the only one who can stop it.

Summary
“So how’d the whole meeting your former coach and teammates after dropping off the face of the earth 5 years ago thing go?”
Jamie paused, taking a deep breath in slowly and releasing it even slower, looking towards the ceiling like it would somehow make the next words out of his mouth less embarrassing to admit out loud. “I panicked, and introduced myself to them like they’d never met me.”
***
Five years after Jamie Tartt quits man city and disappears off the face of the earth, some of the players at AFC Richmond participate in an outreach program where they visit some local school, and mentor some of the children. These two events are a lot more connected than they first seem.
