Summary
"Penny for your thoughts?" said a voice in the dark.
One minute Remus had been alone in the garden, leaning against the Weasleys' broomstick shed, facing away from the Burrow and that peculiar limbo between Order meeting and wedding preparations. But then he lit up, and the flame briefly illuminated the face of Hermione, now lounging next to him.
Remus allowed himself a deep drag before answering, "Life's but a walking shadow." She'd get it.
Her frown confirmed that she did. "Macbeth sort of mood?" she asked.
Macbeth sort of world, Remus thought.

Summary
Draco Malfoy thought his life after the war would be spent burying himself in Unspeakable studies while the world outside the Department of Mysteries forgets about his existence. Instead, he finds himself hurled back to his third year at Hogwarts.
As if puberty and Potter weren't enough to contend with, now he’s on a secret mission to catch a rat and clear his disgraced uncle’s name. Honestly, if this is what heroics look like, he’d rather leave it to the Gryffindors.Or: The no good, completely awful, distressingly unplanned trip down memory lane Draco didn’t ask for.

Summary
It all starts with the stars, doesn't it?
She doesn't know how she got there, or why. But she has a mum who she loves, magic at her fingertips she only read about in books, and a whole lot of knowledge and not enough backbone to let things play out how they're supposed to.
Having a bleeding heart always did make things more difficult for her.
Or alternatively: Confused woman wakes up as a baby and later finds out she's in the HP universe, gets attached to the characters and makes her way into trolling most adults, just because.

Summary
“My, oh my my my, you’re a complex one, aren’t you? Let’s see here, a quick wit, with quite a bit of cunning to go with it - not too much in the way of ambition, but you are a hard worker, yes indeed...”
You’re just going over the stereotypes, Heather thought. What about what Felicity and Kiera told me on the train?
The voice remained quiet for a long moment. “...hmm. Seems you’re inclined to look a bit deeper than most whose minds I peer into, eh? Well, if it’s deeper analysis you want... yes, I see, you’ve realized magic is a gift, not a privilege - you’d be surprised how few seem to think the same way... And a fierce desire to protect your brother, my, look how brightly that shines.”
Harry’s all I’ve got. If I don’t look after him, no one else will.
