Summary
James and Lily grew up next door to one another. Their bedroom windows giving them glimpses into the others life, and also offering prime opportunities to argue with each other over every little thing. They never figured out how to be friends when they were kids, but now that they've graduated from college and are home for the summer, they have a second chance to get things right.

Summary
“Well,” Remus says quietly, “you don’t let people know you."
“And you’re saying you know me?” Sirius drawls, leaning back in his chair. “You’re the only one?”
The half-arsed derision in his tone doesn’t seem to surprise or intimidate Remus. He only smiles, knowing.
It is one thing to love a person; it is quite another to see them as they truly are and to love them all the same. And sometimes, Sirius thinks, he’d rather die than let anybody see beneath the defensive facade of his brave face.
From 1971 to 1978, the Hogwarts years of obsession, betrayal, recklessness, lies, too much drink, insecurity, and all eclipsing sexual frustration. Seven years of Sirius Black’s insufferable god-complex, of Remus Lupin’s most private shames, of secret relationships, awkward hookups, James Potter’s blunt advice, and more yearning than sense. Seven years for Sirius to finally admit to himself that what he wants is not only to be loved, but to be known entirely. And therein lies the difficulty.

Summary
“So you’re not…” A very delicate pause overtook the often silent chapel. And then, “... A vampire?”
Dorcas cleared her throat. “No,” she said. “Not exactly.”*
Dorcas and Remus work for a church that are trusted with the careful job of killing vampires. A certain group of vampires has been getting all the wrong attention, and Dorcas just can't seem to get rid of a particular one that has made it her life's mission to get under Dorcas' skin.

Summary
Not to be dramatic, but Marlene would rather die than be a part of the society her mom surrounds herself with. Her mom, however, keeps trying to convince her to participate in the next season's debutante ball. Her most recent attempt to show her the pros of being a debutante includes recruiting the country club's golden girl, Mary Macdonald, to be her new (pretend) best friend in hopes that she'll finally agree to it.
But when Marlene finds out that there's more to Mary than meets the eye, and the two become closer than her mother accounted for, will they be able to break away from their expectations? Or will their opposite roles only push them apart?

Summary
“I take full responsibility for my actions, Sir, I know that you’re going to have to expel me. There is no excuse for what happened. I’m sorry to have to put my parents through this. And Professor McGonagall, I just really wanted to tell her how sorry I am and …”
His voice trailed off. Dumbledore’s cold periwinkle eyes regarded him intently, as though engaging in some complicated mental Arithmancy.
“If Severus Snape corroborates what you just told me, I’m afraid that is correct, you will be expelled, Mr Potter.”A Marauders What If...?
What if James had been blamed for the Prank?
What if he got expelled at the end of Fifth Year?
What if there was never a Lily Evans and James Potter, Head Boy and Head Girl? If they parted enemies, if they never got together in their final year in Hogwarts? What if the marauders lost James? What then?- Language:

Summary
“Waited for you, didn’t I?”
In 1971, two boys meet in a children’s home just outside London. Three years later, they find each other again at a boarding school in northern England. Four years after that, Britain is at a breaking point, under the rise of far-right politician Tom Riddle and his growing movement, and they're thrown into the middle of it.
Stolen cigarettes, pirate radio stations, recklessness, first loves, underground newspapers, the Yorkshire Dales, protests, punk, poetry, and rock and roll.
Or
A coming-of-age muggle AU retelling of the Marauders’ story, reimagined against 1970s–90s Britain heavily inspired by a time of real-world political unrest.
Wolfstar-centric.

Summary
James thought he'd made peace with the slow burn of it—becoming Lily's friend, earning back her trust, hoping that eventually she'd see him as more. Then Benjy Fenwick makes her laugh and James realizes he's been fooling himself.

Summary
Thing is, Lily is entirely too good at helping other people and faking be competent that, in situations like this, she has no idea what to do. What do you say when arguably one of your best friends say that the door you always thought was closed could've been open this entire time? She likes Bertram, truly, but she can feel her heart trying to claw its way out of her chest, and she's replaying the phrase 'Romantic Stylez' over and over again. She's in a sundress, and the cold air is biting at her bare skin, and she's not aware of this or any damn thing until she unfreezes herself. Her mouth is still half-open in an attempt to have said something before he left, but the words must've caught in her throat, and she turns, too late, to see his retreating self turn around the corner of the street, and he's gone.

Summary
It's 1975 and Whoever-He-Is has turned his eyes towards Hogwarts.

A canon-compliant account of the Marauders' adventures at Hogwarts, as war draws ever nearer. COMPLETE.

Summary
It's too far out of her way and she's wasting so much money, but Lily can't help but return to the bookstore every weekend, where her passion for good literature has, perhaps, been unexpectedly reignited by the messy-haired, pun-making, rather handsome bloke who works there.
