Finn Lynch lives a quiet, tranquil life in a rural village in the mountains. Her life may lack spontaneity and excitement, but at least it's peaceful. And if it's a little lonely too, then she can't complain too much - she's still happy, after all. When her uncle asks her to house a defector from the magical war he's involved in, Finn agrees reluctantly despite her concerns that the presence of Regulus Black in her home will disrupt the careful peace she's been cultivating for years. Nothing could prepare her for what an insufferable prick he is. [marauders era] [regulus black x muggle oc] [enemies to lovers] ** updates on wednesdays **

Fianna Bua, Lady of House Bua, never thought that she'd be riding off to war for the liege lord she hadn't even met. But oaths are oaths, the Buas have fought alongside the Starks for centuries and she wasn't about to be hailed an oath breaker. So with her armour, long sword and some 900 men in tow, she sets off to war to avenge the death of Ned Stark. Yet finds a little more than battle along the way. After all, wolfhounds and wolves tend to hunt each other rather than hunt together. [robb x oc] [season 1 - season 8]
