"None of this seems right. I've had a bad feeling about it all. About Dumbledore. About this war" said the Shafiq girl. "About you. Peter."
Raina shook her head rapidly while starting to cry , as if she could shake away the terrible realisation of her friend's betrayal.
When suddenly, she started to giggle. An almost hysterical laugh was then heard from her. A mixture of pain, disbelief, and surrender.
"Oh Peter. Poor, poor Peter. We've failed you. I can only laugh at this ending of mine" she said. "Just do what you came here to do. If you have the balls to".
The year was 1971 when they all met. Lupin and Black her voice of reason and chaos, respectively. Pettigrew her childhood friend and brother through thick and thin. MJ her kindred spirit. And Potter, well he was something.
Raina Shafiq always thought she was just your average plant mum and baker. Yet she couldn't deny the gnawing feeling that she and her friends had a bigger role to play in all that will unfold, far bigger than they could all have predicted.

{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 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.

A Marauder's Guide to Falling Together
"I have a more personal question," she ignored his arrogance. Watching him had sparked a new interest that seemed to overpower any interest she had in their previous conversation. "Oh?" he seemed surprised but didn't allow it to affect his composure. "Go ahead then." "Why me?" "I beg your pardon?" Sirius seemed confused. Marlene felt embarrassed asking it but it wouldn't be the first time it had danced around in her head. Sirius was the type of guy that could have any girl he wanted. He was smart, funny, immeasurably handsome, and he bloody well knew it. Though he was bit egotistical at times, his hot headedness had seemed to settle down immensely from the boy she had known from fifth and sixth year. "Of all the girls you could have picked from, you chose me. I want to know why." Sirius was looking at her funny - it was not quite the reaction she had been expecting. "Of all the girls I could have picked from. What exactly is that supposed to mean? Isn't it obvious?" * It's Marlene's seventh year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and she has graduated from blundering student to emotional train wreck. She knew that seventh year was going to be challenging, but she never imagined that N.E.W.T.s would be the least of her worries. The pressure of suppressing her emotions begins to take its toll, and it's only a matter of time before she breaks. She knows that she must tell Sirius how she truly feels if they ever stand a chance. As she struggles to win Sirius back, dark forces continue to loom over Hogwarts. Suddenly, Marlene finds herself immersed in something unexpected; threatening everything she knows and loves. Relationships blossom, alliances are formed, and adventures continue as Marlene and her friends enjoy their last moments before the war. They must rely on one another to fight the darkness, and together she and Sirius may just have a fighting chance after all. Highest Rank: #1 Blackinnon 03.13.21Complete

A Marauder's Guide to Falling Apart
"So we're alone," he said slowly. "That's a thoughtful observation," she whispered. She could feel her fingertips tremble slightly as they clasped around his hair. She didn't know why she suddenly felt so nervous. She moved her hands and allowed her fingers to trail slowly and gently down the side of his face and he involuntarily shivered at her touch. Eventually her fingers landed on his lips and she traced across them softly. They parted slightly and she could hear and feel him let out what she assumed to be an unintentional breath. He moved inwards, his lips pulling from her fingertips to hover near her ear. "I'm a thoughtful person." * After getting accepted into the Healer training program and moving to London, Marlene begins her life outside of Hogwarts. Despite the looming dangers of war, she has a pretty decent life; she has friends who care about her, a boyfriend who loves her, and the determination to keep fighting for a life worth living. But it doesn't take long for Marlene to begin questioning her choices. As the world is falling apart around her, so are her relationships and any certainty that she once had. Except for Sirius; the only certainty she has left in the world. However, war only seems to be threatening to tear them apart. She can't quite put her finger on what has started changing, but something certainly has, and love may not be enough to get her through it this time. It is only a matter of time before Marlene must make the most important choice of all; join the war or fall apart.Complete

Black is the Colour | Sirius Black
"I write her a letter just a few short lines, and suffer death a thousand times." Asteria O'Connor, sole heir of a prestigious wizarding family, has other plans when the self-proclaimed Marauders decide to torment her and her housemates. It's about time they learned some respect towards their superiors. If there's one thing she despises more than the group of irritating boys, it's a particular one of its lead members: Sirius Black. It wasn't always like this. There was once a time when they would admire the stars together, twinkling unlike any magic they had ever seen, pointing out constellations and imagining their future. Their real future was planned the second their families met, but of course what do children know about the reality of romance? Sadly Slytherins and Gryffindors aren't destined to be friends. Quite the opposite, in fact. It was never said aloud or seen written down, but the rule was engraved in the small unseen stitching of their house crests. They're no exception. So, they call each other enemies. However, I think we all know that is very unlikely to stay true for very long. WARNING: EXTREMELY SLOW BURN
