"You should tell him, you know," a familiar voice softly said from behind her. "I know you love him." "Remus," she began turning around to face her friend, "You know I can't do that. He's my best friend, and h-he's in love with his perfect Lily-flower," Elsie sighed as tears began forming in her eyes. "But, Elsie... you don't see the way he looks at you, he-," his sentence was cut off by the girl with tears running down her face. "I don't see how he looks at me, but I see how he looks at her! And, t-that's enough to know that I will n-never be good enough to be with h-him," she snapped through stifled words. "But why don't you just tell him? Why don't you let yourself have a chance at happiness for once?" he asked stepping forwards, wiping her cheeks with his thumbs. "Because...loving him is a losing game. Either way, I'm the one getting hurt," Elsie whispered, falling into the arms of the boy in front of her.

In which Kathryn Walding, well known pure-blooded, sacred twenty-eight witch, hates prejudice just as much as she loves music. Her life had been complicated from the day she was born. Birthed into a family of heartlessness and cruelty, most expected the young witch to continue in her families footsteps. Instead it lead to her secret double life, one that promises death upon discovery. Her chance of survival was already low, further decreasing when she discovers the ancient secret of her blood line that lands her straight into the middle of the war. Making her decision of leaving behind the wizarding world not so clear. "Godric you look bloody different." James uncontrollably stated as his eyes scanned every inch of her face. He was used to the incredibly pristine, almost robotic appearance to the girl. But this, this was a perfected mess of mystery, colour and... seduction. A pink tint took over his own once he realised what he said. "Not bad, no you look good. I mean you always look nice but this-this is just-" "Different?" Kathryn intervened for him, sensing that he'd keep fumbling until she stopped him. "I know." She added, completely unsure what else to say. Her throat felt dry, but she knew that this time it wasn't caused by the booze.

{Marauders Era - Post War} {James Potter x OC} {Second Chance Romance} "I'm a potter," Fawn announces, her head inclining in the direction of the floorboards suddenly creaking very loudly. James is rearing back, his eyes growing round like bludgers and his hand coming up to clasp his throat, his voice box, hoping he sounds less embarrassingly taken aback than he feels. "I beg your pardon?" A clear, bright strand of orange emerges, betraying Fawn's slight amusement when she clarifies, "I'm a potter. I make pottery." ***************** 𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇 James Potter reluctantly returns to Hogwarts three years after war end and happens to stumble across the brightness, the colour he lost all sight of.

[𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐖𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐥𝐞𝐲 𝐅𝐚𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧] Arabella Diggory-that's my name. But most people just call me Bella. I don't know my real parents, but a kind man adopted me: Amos Diggory. You probably know him-and his son, Cedric Diggory. He's really popular at Hogwarts and like a real brother to me. Well, we did grow up together. While Cedric is in Hufflepuff, I was sorted into Slytherin. I don't mind, and neither does Amos. Cedric accepted it too. Oh, and Amos's best friend is Arthur Weasley, which means we spend a lot of time with their family-either at their place or ours. When we were kids, we always played together. I mostly played with the twins or Ron. All in all, I don't really care who my real parents are. Sometimes. I mean, I do want to know why they didn't want me, but Amos always tells me not to worry about it.

Nova Rowen and George Weasley engage in the bet that could end in victory-or disaster. Every prank and clever move drags them closer, blurring the line between rival and temptation. In the game of mischief, Hogwarts is the playground...and neither of them is playing fair. ────୨ৎ──── First published on March 3, 2025 *disclaimer* This story is a work of fan fiction and is intended for readers 18 and over due to mature themes, including explicit content and adult situations.

❝𝐘𝐨𝐮'𝐯𝐞 𝐠𝐨𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐞𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬, 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐫𝐞 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐥𝐲.❞ Xia Chang does not speak. She never has-not since she was a child. But that has never stopped her from being heard. Thoughtful and observant, she moves through Hogwarts in silence, content to exist on the outskirts of conversation. People like her well enough, though she has no real friends. And she tells herself she doesn't need them. Then George Weasley barrels into her life. Loud, reckless, and utterly unbothered by her silence, he refuses to let her fade into the background. He talks enough for the both of them, filling the quiet with jokes, stories, and mischief. And, somehow, Xia finds herself laughing-without a single word. As danger stirs beneath the surface of the wizarding world, Xia and George form an unlikely bond. He teaches her that silence does not mean invisibility. She shows him that sometimes, the loudest things are left unsaid. But with darkness creeping closer and the year growing more dangerous, Xia begins to wonder-if the moment ever came, if it truly mattered... would she speak for him? ©HiddingNightmare 2025 +++ Goblet Of Fire - Complete Order Of The Phoenix - On Going Half Blood Prince - Deathly Hallows - +++ 1# GeorgeWeasley 3/4/25 1# UnspokenWords 3/4/25 - 2# GobletOfFire 19/8/25 2# WeasleyTwins 24/8/25
