In Love With Love ^New! by missclaire17

Love (noun):

an intense feeling of deep affection or a deep romantic attachment to someone

-

Darcy Wood believed she knew exactly what love was.
As a writer for Witch Weekly, she knew what it meant and how it feels like, even if she didn't know where to find it.

Then, Darcy was asked to write a column on the life of James Potter.
He was a Quidditch player extraordinaire and Chaser for Puddlemere United (her father's team, blergh).

Just as Darcy thought she knew everything there was to know about love, Darcy realized she knew nothing at all.

Pool is anything but a game. Play with caution, because you're playing for keeps.

The Boy-Who-Lived... is over there ^New! by tyrannicpuppy

Harry James Potter is not the Boy-Who-Lived, but he does go to school with him.

A little off if you ask Harry, that Neville Longbottom, always running around getting into trouble.

L'optimisme ^New! by Aphoride

A conversation without end is like a sandstorm: it encompasses everything, swallows it all and whirls, whips round from place to place, set on a pre-ordained path it is impossible to stop and building - always building to a breaking point; the crashing thunder of an argument. 

And what are wars but arguments out of control?

Resurrection ^New! by missclaire17

"Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, but bears it out even to the edge of doom." - Shakespeare

-

Tensions are rising between the Wizards and Muggles as a group self-labeled as Resurrection kills the Muggle Prime Minister.

Albus Potter suddenly finds himself in the middle of a conspiracy that threatens to undo the peace.

Love always perseveres, even in the wake of warfare and destruction. What do you do when love itself is threatened to be destroyed?

Swipe Right, Swing Left by ShadowRose

The unspoken rule of using dating apps in D.C. is that you always start with where you work.

James Potter, it seems, never picked up on that one.

The Art of Surviving by esmeraude

When survival comes at a cost, the safest place to hide is behind enemy lines.
Once a tight-knit group of friends, ten Hufflepuffs are now divided
by the Dark Lord's rise to power and the mortal peril they face.

Like a stick of Blackpool rock, loyalty is at their very core –
until treachery becomes the price for staying alive.

We, Lawbreaking Citizens by Rumpelstiltskin

BEAUTIFUL banner by beyond the rain @TDA and @HPFT

The War revealed many truths about humankind...the most important of those truths is that all humans are innately inclined to violence and chaos. We are hosts to an entire horde of plaguing ailments like jealousy and greed and we lack the physical and emotional capabilities to cope with such diseases. That is how the War started. That is how the world ended. That is why there is a grand nothingness on the Outside, beyond the walls of the Sovereignty.

My name is Cyril Bernard and I play a highly important role in maintaining the peace and overall wellbeing of our wonderfully prospering society (despite what that Mark Van said because what does that peacebreaker know anyway).

She was more than a pimply intellectual.
He was more than a Quidditch-crazed playboy.

She was worth looking at. He was worth listening to.
