Title: Choosing the Wizard
Rating: PG
Pairings: Garrick Ollivander/Rubeus Hagrid
Word Count: 14,390
Warnings/Content Information (Highlight to View): *[None]*.
Summary: Garrick Ollivander is a lost soul after everyone leaves Muriel’s house to go fight in the Battle of Hogwarts. How will he fit back into a world where he feels responsible for handing Voldemort the ultimate deadly weapon?
Author's Notes: Beta’d by my dear friend B, who is, I am sure, regretting her rash offer to beta this story, since she got it over a weekend when both of her boys were sick. Thank you, my dear, you went above and beyond the call. Any remaining mistakes are my own bloody fault.
I hope this fic is to your liking synn, though I profusely apologize for the lack of pr0n. The two main characters had a long, plotty story to tell and by the time they were done, I ran out of both time and room (see the ridiculous word count). It is a bit angsty, though I don’t think it’s excessively so, but I think you will like the ending. :-)

Word Count: 2212
Warnings: bondage, dub con, frotting
Disclaimer: Rights to the characters belong to JK Rowling.
Summary: Auror Moody needs questions answered about a wand.
Author's Notes: A shameless PWP written for Ineffabili_tea who asked for Moody, McGonagall, and/or Ollivander, and likes dub con, banter, pining, and fight!sex. Can't say that this is staunchly any of those things but I tried to come close. This is my first smut fic and the longest fic I've written. It was great experience and I learned a lot. Hope you enjoy!
