Summary: In a world where witches are barred from working in the war against Grindelwald, Minerva and Poppy carve out a life for themselves in the Muggle war effort. The compromises are hard, and Minerva finds herself tucked away behind doors and blackout curtains, and even the lipstick that sits heavy and waxy on her mouth weighs her down with secrets. In some things, though, there are no compromises, no hiding, no layers to bar you from view.
Warnings: Witches not allowed to work in the wizarding war against Grindelwald, OFC present in plot
Word Count: 3100
Author's Notes: mindabbles, I was just in the mood to write Minerva fic, so thanks for giving me this opportunity. I hope you enjoy this fic. I am intrigued by the possibilities for Minerva's youth, and can imagine her as brave and idealistic and wanting to do something, anything, to feel useful. Poppy is her companion in all this, and I hope I captured sweetness and tenderness and hotness for you. Many thanks to T, my fantastic beta reader. She helped a lot with the niggly little things, and helped make this fic much better than it was before. All remaining mistakes are mine.

Happy holidays, mindabbles! )
