Summary
Exiled from the world of outcasts and stripped of his family's fortune, the tortured artist Xavier Thorpe is thrust into the soul-crushing banality of suburban public high school, where he must navigate psychic visions of pop quizzes, a retired monster-hunting art teacher, a surprisingly potent coven of normie psychics, and a possible romantic interest.

Summary
When the Ministry guts funding for her Muggleborn Integration Programme, Hermione Granger has three months and twenty days to conjure twenty thousand Galleons—or watch seven years of work die in its cradle. Legitimate channels are closed to her. Then Ginny Weasley proposes something deliciously scandalous: bottle sex memories, price them obscenely, and let wealthy witches and wizards lose themselves inside their pensieves. All Hermione needs is a wizard who can be trusted to stay discreet. Anyone but a stranger.
Enter Draco Malfoy—haunted by his two years in Azkaban and cold to nearly everyone. Counting only Theo and Harry as his closest friends. He’s spent two years orbiting Hermione at a careful distance, wanting what he shouldn’t.
What begins as a favour becomes something far more dangerous: the terrifying possibility of being loved—and, worse, forgiven.

Summary
Reach is instantly drawn to Veronica – and she can't take her eyes off this strange, yet disarming man either. But there's a problem. Well, two problems.

He doesn't know how to handle this shit. And the woman who's making him feel a certain kind of way belongs with Rolf Hurd, his first and only friend.
Thankfully Tempest and Veronica are on the same page about welcoming this wet cat of a man into their shared life. -

And when the time is right, he plans to claim what’s his....too bad she despises him, they don't get along, are constantly at odds.

Summary
Hermione could smell the spice of his cologne, something slightly woodsy and old… like parchment from the restricted section of the Hogwarts library. The scent oddly suited him and his antiquated existence in this formal, strict sector of the Wizarding World.
She shook her head slightly as if to remove the smell from her brain and returned to the matter at hand. “Would people truly believe you’re courting me? A muggle born?”
Draco’s gaze snapped to Hermione’s face intensely, searching it. “I will make them believe,” he said with such conviction that Hermione found it impossible to argue.
“How do you plan to do that?” Hermione asked, annoyed to find her voice sounded quite breathless.
“Leave that to me,” Draco said, a smirk taking over his face that Hermione had never seen at Hogwarts; it was charming and dangerous at the same time. A flush crawled up her neck and sat beneath the dense twist of curls at the nape of her neck.
[A Regency AU/Bridgerton-inspired fake dating Dramione romance peppered with Romeo + Juliet references.]

Summary
After Harvey fires Mike for betraying him with Jessica, Rachel demands that Mike confess what he is hiding from her. But unlike in canon, Mike stands by his refusal to tell her, even though that means losing the last person in his life that he loves who hadn’t died or abandoned him already. Harvey overhears their fight and finds Mike collapsed on the ground and sobbing in the Pearson Hardman library after Rachel storms out the door, leaving Mike behind. Harvey is nowhere near ready to forgive his former associate for betraying him, but he’s also not ready to let him suffer completely on his own.
Set towards the end of Season 2, Episide 16 (Season Finale)- “War” and extending through or replacing Season 3, Episode 2- “I Want You to Want Me.”
(No AU; not related to my other works).

Summary
It's cold in Green Hill today. Most of the residents have tucked themselves away, bundled up with their loved ones and beverage of choice, but Shadow is not among them. He could be inside if he wanted to. Could even bundle up with a blanket and a warm drink. But instead, he sits atop the Loop de Loop, the highest point besides the mountain, eyes fixed on the horizon as if staring at it will make it stop changing colors as the sun slowly draws towards the sea. He doesn't really feel the cold, anyway. Not in any way that matters.
Below, distantly, he can hear voices echoing cheerfully over the hills. The cold quiets most other sounds, so it carries remarkably well. The words of their conversation are lost to the echo, but there's a warmth to them, and Shadow finds himself tilting his ears towards the sound despite himself. He wonders, briefly, what would happen if he jumped down from the loop and joined them. They wouldn't turn him away. Even so, he doesn't get up from where he's sat. He just listens.
