    Summary

    Seren is a coward. Too afraid to move on, too afraid to allow herself to feel. That is until a surprise meeting with her old headmaster turns her life on its head.

    Introduced to a mysterious and ill-tempered mentor, she must stretch herself to the limits of what she thought herself capable of to discover who she really is; and what she really wants.

    This is a story of how two broken people can help each other to feel whole again.

    This fic is set from the summer after Order of the Phoenix through to the battle of Hogwarts. Where possible, I’ve tried to keep it in line with the events of the books rather than the films, although there may be some divergence to that!
     

    **Don’t know if this is relevant or necessary to add but I’ve been working on this for about ten months and have had NO AI used at any point.

    I fundamentally disagree with using AI for writing, just to make my stance on that clear ❤️ **

    If you’re reading thank you, and enjoy! Xx

    Summary

    Twenty-four-year-old Maxine is done with her old life.
    When a letter from her late grandfather reveals that he has left her his farm in Stardew Valley, she doesn't hesitate. She packs her bags and leaves everything behind for a fresh start.
    The quiet little town welcomes her with open arms. New friendships form easily, and for the first time in a long while, Maxine feels like she might finally belong.
    But then there's Shane.
    Cold, distant, and impossible to read, he keeps everyone at arm's length, especially her. No matter how hard she tries, she can't seem to break through his walls.
    It's as if they live in two different worlds, she lives in the light, while he lives in the shadows.
    Will Maxine be able to pull Shane out of the darkness?

    Summary

    Eridians. I come in peace from Planet Earth, the homeworld of Doctor Ryland Grace. We wish to learn more about your people. Can you hear me?

    She scanned every dial, output, and monitor for any sign of anything at all.

    Nada. Again.

    She sighed heavily. Maybe they were all dead down there. She’d hoped not.

    “I, uh, hey, earthling. Fellow earthling. This is Doctor Ryland Grace. We hear– uh, we copy. Um. Sup?”

    Sup?! SUP?! Years without any human contact, and this guy’s first message is sup? The dead speak, and they are not fucking serious whatsoever.

    ---

    After the success of the Hail Mary mission, Earth sends a foul-mouthed astro-anthropologist to study Erid. She discovers a very-much-still-alive Ryland Grace. Slow burn mutual pining ensues. Will eventually be explicit, but... did I mention the slow burn?

    Summary

    Maggie had not thought much about the Harry Potter franchise in over five years. She saw no reason to dwell on it when she had much more important issues, like getting into law school and taking care of her little brother. The contents of a children's series from a decade ago written by an author who would've been better served staying off the internet would hardly serve her outside of a game of Jeopardy.

    A magical couple in another universe feels differently. They have no problem with flipping her life inside out to prove her wrong.

    Follow Maggie, now Meg, as she tries to navigate a world she thought she had left behind, juggle the burden of a new bloodline, and protect the kids she has all but adopted as her own.

     

    I suck at summaries. Just bear with me, please.

    I own nothing but my own inventions/characters/changes to the plot. I am just a tiny bit afraid Rowling's going to pull an Anne Rice so I do not condone this story being used for any kind of monetary profit whatsoever. The practice of fanfiction/fanart resides in a very fragile legal space, so please don't ruin it for everyone else. <3

    Summary

    He would never have volunteered for the mission.

    You did.

    Now you're trapped together aboard the Hail Mary: 800 square feet, four years in deep space, and nine years' worth of unresolved feelings.

    The problem?

    Ryland Grace doesn't remember any of it.

    You do.
