"I don't understand why I feel this way if I am never going to be able to hold you in my arms." ---- Esmeralda Dragonstone has been trapped inside the Mirror of Erised since her 6th year at Hogwarts. That was eight years ago. No one knows what happened to her... she was just gone. She cannot age as long as she's trapped in the mirror. Esmeralda gave up many years ago, the Mirror had become her eternal prison. That is until she saw two young boys walk into the room holding a piece of parchment. One of them saw himself with a red-headed girl, and the other one... he saw Esmeralda.

❝You know, when most girls go on a date with me, they don't bring a 20 page terms and conditions book with them.❞ ❝Well this girl does so suck it up and sign. Don't worry, it's all fairly standard although I'd recommend you read the truth clause...❞ ▬▬▬▬ Sirius Black had a reputation for loving and leaving girls but Ora was determined not to just be another 'funny' anecdote. When her inevitable date with Sirius Black rolls around, she's determined to outwit the master and figure out every way he could ditch her and stop it... or use it against him if worst came to worse. However, the stories that Ora uncovered turned out to be more awful and enthralling than expected and Ora finds herself being lured back every day for more...

❝So we've got Messrs Padfoot, Prongs, Moony and Wormtail ... and Madam Despa-three-toe. What the fuck, Exie, WHY?!❞ ❝My Animagus is a three-toed sloth! It's hilarious, put it on the fucking map, Black.❞ ▬▬▬▬ Nobody was quite sure how the Marauders came to be (although Exie Attia would like to take full credit for inviting James and Sirius into the group after an intense game of Gobstones). Whilst the boys had big dreams and would work days and nights to get it, Exie liked to think of herself as the mellow one especially because sometimes she literally couldn't keep her eyes open. Some people loved them, one person REALLY didn't but Exie Attia wouldn't change it for the world. With Fourth Year rolling around, Exie expected life to stay blissfully stagnant but that was just wishful thinking. After the shocking discovery that, despite sounding like the start of a bad joke, combining a narcoleptic with stressful Animagus training might not be the best idea, Exie finds herself excluded for the first time in, well ... ever. But even this might have been okay had a certain tantalising redhead not caught her eye... Yeah, Fourth Year might not go that well. [CREDIT TO JANICE SUNG FOR COVER ART]

"𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐬, 𝐡𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝒇𝒊𝒓𝒆𝒔; 𝐋𝐞𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐦𝐲 𝒃𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒌 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒅𝒂𝒓𝒌𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝒅𝒆𝒔𝒊𝒓𝒆𝒔" -william shakespeare WHEN ESTA NOVIC closes her eyes, she can see the entire universe. Shimmering silver feathers of stardust, colliding comets, vast unihabited worlds, black holes sucking the life from neighbouring stars. Supernovae collapsing into void. She is descended from the cosmos, galactic blood glowing liquid sapphire in her veins, stars crumbling like glimmering grey ash in her palms. But this gift is a blessing and a curse, for although Esta has the universe in her very bones, she is burdened with it too. Because although she can influence the celestial, it will not bow to her. The girl can see the fate of every soul she encounters, every life, love and terrible death, but there are times she is hopeless to help. She would rather reject her star-born lineage than watch someone she love die, no matter how she tried to save them. Hands tied, Esta feels a walking catastrophe. THAT IS UNTIL a child of the moon crosses her path with his chocolate-stained palms and eyes like silver storms. Because Esta might not be able to see Remus Lupin's fate, but with every touch of his scarred hand, she can feel herself falling. Maybe there's a reason to save the world after all.

❝Not all storms come to disrupt your life... Change is hard. Especially when things have been the same for so long. It had always been the Argenti and the Marauders, two rivals who wouldn't hesitate at the opportunity to seek revenge on the other. No one knew how it started - it simply just did. It was just common knowledge that Eleanor Crossford hated Sirius Black, Morgana Anderson hated James Potter, Harley Foster was pretty much in love with Remus Lupin (though she denied it), and that Artemis Oakley...generally hated everyone, the Marauders being no exception. And it had been like that since everyone could remember. But the outside world is slowly falling to chaos, and despite all their efforts, everything is slowly changing. Whether for the better of the worse, no one knows. But how will they make it to the end with all the darkness waiting on the horizon? What will become of them when lives are at stake? ...some come to clear your path...❞
