Author: ??? Title: we lay together on a cold hard floor Rating: R for language and sexual activity Pairings: Severus Snape/Peter Pettigrew Word Count: around 9000 Medium: fic Warnings/Content Information (Highlight to View): * sexual contact between two characters aged 15–16*. Summary: Circumstance threw Snape and Pettigrew together once before at school, when the future was wide open. Author's/Artist's Notes: To mindabbles, you said you like a happy ending. Once the pairing and era (Marauders) were in place, that was more or less off the table – I’m sorry! – so I went with "unexplored scenes", "friendships that really matter" and "people facing difficult choices". I really hope it’s okay. thank you to L and B for all their help, and to delphi for great forbearance. Title from "If They Come In The Night" by Marge Piercy.

pyttanAuthor/Artist: ??? Title: A Living Memory Rating: 16 Pairings: Viktor Krum/Harry Potter Word Count: 41 000 Warnings/Content Information (Highlight to View): *Violence, very minor character death, book I is not in chronological order*.

Harry is put on a task force to hunt him down, but when the group turns on him, Krum is the one to save him. Trapped in a time not their own with only cryptic clues from an even more cryptic Unspeakable, they have to work together to figure out the mystery of the TimeLoop.

Author/Artist: ??? Title: The Aftermath Rating: PG-13 Pairings: Charity/Hermione, Dudley/Neville, Pomona/Minerva Word Count: 3770 words Warnings/Content Information (Highlight to View): *canon character death, fanon character survival*. Summary: In the days after the Battle for Hogwarts, there was much healing work to be done. Fortunately all of creation was helping Author's/Artist's Notes: Dear Songquake, I hope with all my heart that this amuses you. When you mentioned Charity surviving, a whole cascade of head-canon came flowing in, and this asked to be written. The inspiration for Dudley’s perhaps unlikely appearance comes from this artwork: http://dudley-redeemed.livejournal.c Many, many thanks and blessings to my kind and thoughtful betas MBR & K.

cuorefreddoAuthor/Artist: ??? Title: Colour to a Sunset Sky Rating: NC-17 Pairings: Oliver Wood/Gregory Goyle, brief mention of past Oliver Wood/Harry Potter and suggestion of Harry Potter/Draco Malfoy Word Count: ~5,600 Warnings/Content Information (Highlight to View): *Character death (not Gregory or Oliver), mild Angst, some violence, hurt/comfort*. Summary: Oliver would watch him sometimes, recognising him vaguely, like an old memory which had gone fuzzy around the edges with the passing of time. A story of a fragile and unlikely friendship which grows into something more. Author's/Artist's Notes: I have never written either of these characters before so I had to take a lot of time researching the snippets we can glean from canon, which was such a fun exercise. For the purposes of the fic I have departed from canon and assumed the Dementors are still guarding Azkaban post Deathly Hallows, although this was unlikely to be the case. The title is loosely adapted from the Rabindranath Tagore quote “Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add colour to my sunset sky.” Thank you to V for cheerleading and support and to A for the beta read.

faradAuthor: ??? Title: A Dictionary of Silence Rating: mild R Pairings: Mad-Eye Moody/Remus Lupin Word Count: ~2500 Warnings/Content Information (Highlight to View): *[mention of canonical character death]*. Summary: Moody is a man of few words, but he has a hundred varieties of silence. Author's Notes: Most of the dialogue in the final scene is taken from Chapter 5 of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I've been wanting to write this pairing for ages and was thrilled to get the chance. I hope you like it, Farad! ( A Dictionary of Silence ) Fri, May. 3rd, 2013, 07:16 am
Author/Artist: ??? Title: Safe As Houses Rating: PG-13 Pairings: Mundungus Fletcher/Hestia Jones, one-sided Dudley Dursley/Dedalus Diggle, background Vernon Dursley/Petunia Dursley Word Count: 7,000 Warnings/Content Information (Highlight to View): * Swearing, moderate violence, prejudice, inappropriate touching*.

dueltasticAuthor/Artist: ??? Title: The Reluctant Phoenix Rating: Up to NC-17 (although most of the story rates lower) Pairings: Albus Dumbledore/Minerva McGonagall, Horace Slughorn/Elphias Doge, Albus Dumbledore/Horace Slughorn Word Count: ~23,600 Warnings/Content Information (Highlight to View): *Cross-gen - teacher/student (Minerva is 18), infidelity in secondary pairing.*. Summary: Albus thought that he was a non-running member of the human race when it came to romantic relationships. If pushed, he would have said that he was the kind of wizard who preferred wizards. -All that, of course, was before Minerva came along. Author's/Artist's Notes: Thanks to dueltastic for such open-ended and thought-provoking prompts. I have tried to incorporate elements of your following suggestions into this story: "non-traditional relationships, things people make work in their own ways when it's not obvious how or why it does", "eras and places we see only hints of in canon", "age differences being acknowledged", "blurry definitions" and "fluidity in gender roles and sexual orientation."
