Summary
Hogwarts Prefect Narcissa Black is flawless. As perfect as a paper doll and just as insubstantial. She hasn't been a real person as long as she can remember. Suffocating on her stifling image, she lives the same routine day in and day out. But when she thinks that she can't take one more second, something changes: Lucius Malfoy notices her shortcomings. She's never felt so stupid and clumsy and utterly besotted.

Summary
In the rubble and ash of the Battle of Hogwarts, an unlikely alliance rises from the flames: Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy. As they struggle through the healing process, each feels that the other might be the only light in the darkness.
Based on my one-shot Date Night
He had made a decision of his own. He’d touched the Mudblood. He’d fixed something for her. It might only have been a mascara stain, but it was one of only two things he’d ever fixed in his life and the only one that hadn’t then resulted in torture and bloodshed.
I’m going to do that again. Fix something, for Granger.
It was a decision. A choice. It was Draco’s and nobody else’s. No one would expect it of him, it wouldn’t be assumed that he’d help her. And that made it all the more precious. It meant that it was wholly his.
He couldn’t say how much time passed on that step. It could have been seconds or minutes or hours. He might have dozed or woken or stayed somewhere in between.
His parents never came for him, and Granger never left.

Read Between the Lines: I Love You by Dreadful_Pears for HuntersWithCellPhones
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

Summary
There are not enough lesbian relationships portrayed in all of fiction and fanfiction is a great way to show them off.
Dorcas Meadowes is cursed while on her post-hogwarts internship and she has to return to England. The curse has prevented her reading, but strangely, the only words that make sense are those written by her new flatmate, Marlene McKinnon. This fluffy romp not only tells how they fall in love, but also gives the backstory on Dorcas Meadowes' research on soul magic, perhaps the reason Lord Voldemort was so eager to track her down and put a stop to her work.
This silly little fic was always intended for Hunterswithcellphones-- I misread some of the instructions on a secret santa soulmate and ended up having to drop out early, but this fic stayed in my drafts and today I saw it sitting there and thought that I might as well send it to you. Enjoy!

Summary
It does not do to live on dreams alone and forget to live... but Draco's life might just be worse than death.
The Mirror of Erised reflects Draco's descent into despair, and with each passing day the reflection grows stronger. As madness takes hold, Draco isn't sure which version of himself is in control. It's his body, but the actions are dictated by the doppelganger in the mirror. Or are they? Is his mirror image a mental survival mechanism or manifestation of his suicidal ideation? As Draco submits to this new master, he doesn't know if it is the best or worse of himself that he venerates. Either way, he is on a path of destiny from which there is no turning back and will ultimately change the course of history. The Draco in the mirror might have damned them both, but it just might be worth it to end the war.
This is a dark story of mental illness and does not have a happy ending. Please mind the tags.
