Let Love Win by ladyofducks for justabackgroundcharacter
Fandoms: The Poppy War Series - R. F. Kuang

Summary
You know the tales. They usually involve a brave, dashing knight riding his noble steed on his way to rescue the damsel in distress from the tower, with a ferocious dragon in his path. About a cursed princess residing in a grand palace. About finding love.
This one, however, isn't about a peasant sneaking into a ball for a chance at true love. It contains the elements of love and a cursed princess, sure, but it goes a little differently.
***
Princess Runin Trengsin of Speer’s on her way to find her cousin, who’s hunting a dragon in a desperate attempt to rid her curse.
She ends up finding a little more. After all, no fairytale is complete without love, a dash of humour, and chaos.

Summary
“Altan Trengsin,” the man confirmed. He looked Chaghan's age. “Why? What's she been saying about me?”
Clearly, not enough. Chaghan did have urges to strangle the little hellion, but never had he wanted to choke the kid so badly right now. Why didn't Rin ever talk more about Altan in class?
***
Chaghan's a teacher at the resident kindergarten, breaking up fights and trying to survive in this economy.
Altan's just here to pick his little cousin up.

Summary
Without thinking, Remus waved his wand at the loudest source of noise, barely registering the hex in his head.
When Sirius looked at the marauders in confusion, Remus's heart dropped to his stomach as he finally recalled what he cursed Sirius with.
A modified memory charm.
OR
Remus, in the heat of the moment, obliviated the marauders after The Prank™, and they've forgotten how close they were with him.
Lily is stressed out finding everything, but she has her besties, her ability to be Remus's emotional support, and the obsession of one James Potter.
And the rest of our beloved gang may or may not be considering something highly illegal...
A wolfstar + jily fic, with already established dorlene.

Summary
Pomni stepped into the room just a little, leaning her weight back against the door. She thought about toying with him a little, but at the end of the day, she really just wanted to get down to it. Pressing her lips together, she glanced quickly around the hall, watchful for familiar faces that actually might question her if they saw who she was talking to.
When she felt the coast was sufficiently clear, she turned back to him. “What are you doing after work?”
Jax only stared at her for a beat or two, his eyes a touch wider than they had been a moment ago. He seemed surprised to hear her be so forward—an unintended effect, but not an unwelcome one.
At length, though, he smirked. “You tell me.”

Summary
Before he could turn, she said, "Why are you in here?"
Despite the scare he got from the sound of her, he drew out the action of turning like he was drenched in syrup. His hands held up placatingly by his head, like she was aiming a crossbow at him.
He didn't have the expression of fear or shame one would imagine, though. Jax was grinning.
Lady Pomni settled into her newest role as castle knight with the grace and dedication necessary. She wasn't bothered by much of anything, only the matters that haunted her king and queen, the more concrete threats that lingered on the outside. She was as flawless of a knight as she wanted everyone to think.
Nobody had to know the steady pressure of a legacy she had left behind. Nobody had to know how closely she held her weak heart to her chest. Finally, nobody had to know about the interest she took in the palace's newest ruffian; Jax Harland.
