Just a girl with far too much time on her hands and far too many plot bunnies to contain within her... unfortunately very few of these will ever be finished and posted!
Slightly obsessed with Ginny Weasley.
Oh and I'm kinda incapable of writing anything remotely upbeat, so if everything you read depresses you I do apologise, but thanks for reading anyway!
Summary:
He returned with a quiet sadness and a surprising new responsibility to keep him focused. She returned with a misplaced bitterness and the matching position that forced them to work with one another. Yet fear, resentment, and stubborn arrogance kept pushing them apart, even when they were meant to be together.
Winner, Quicksilver Quill for Best Canon Romance. Thank you!!
Elisabeth by obsessed_with_jo
Rated: 6th-7th Years [Reviews - 44]
Summary: I’m hypocritical, I know, hoping that he’ll declare he loves me, when I haven’t even made up my mind about how I feel towards him. He’s attractive and undeniably good company, but I’m not sure yet if there’s enough substance there to love. He’s clearly smart, but that’s not quite it. I don’t know how to love someone who seems so indifferent to me. I don’t know how to love someone who won’t reciprocate my feelings. I don’t know how to love someone like Sirius.
A sequel to Persephone, this time focusing on Persephone’s daughter. It’s recommended that you read Persephone first, but not completely necessary.

Things Change by Gmariam
Rated: 3rd-5th Years [Reviews - 79]
Summary:
James Potter has changed: no longer an arrogant, irresponsible prankster, he has matured into a responsible Head Boy with tops marks in Transfiguration. Lily Evans has changed as well: normally studious and in control, she has lost focus as she struggles with Head Girl responsibilities and N.E.W.T level studies. An unexpected encounter in the corridors one weekend leads to several startling realizations, the least of which is that things have definitely changed between James Potter and Lily Evans.
This story was nominated for a 2010 QSQ and is now complete.

When Worlds Collide by jenny b
Rated: 6th-7th Years [Reviews - 254]
Summary:
Rose was a Weasley. She never gave Scorpius Malfoy a second glance. They were sworn enemies, even though they’d barely even spoken to each other. But sometimes all it takes for love to blossom is a Potions lesson, a few snide remarks and a dropped book.
