Summary
This is just a short scene from Dean's point of view immediately after the events of chapter 20 of Harry Potter and the Siren's Lament. It didn't flow with the rest of the story, so I'm leaving it as a small bonus outside of the main work. It will make zero sense unless you've read to chapter 20 of the main story, and includes major spoilers, so I don't recommend reading it out of order.

Summary
“Selkies steal your heart. Merrow drown your children. Sirens sink ships,” Ron whispered, eyes downcast now. “Everyone knows that. There’s a reason wizards aren’t big into going swimming and sailing.”
Harry sank, wide-eyed, to the bottom of the tank, a massive lump in his throat. Hermione nudged Ron with her foot, tipping her head towards Harry reprovingly. Ron dragged his eyes up again and grimaced.
“Not that… not that I think you’d do those things,” Ron said awkwardly, glancing at Hermione and then shuddering. “But… you could.”
Harry shook his head, curling his nauseatingly flexible tail against the smooth walls of the tank. He hadn't meant to imperio Hermione - he'd never!
Except, he had, hadn't he?
Monster.

Summary
At the end of Harry's fourth year, the secret he'd been hiding was revealed: Harry is a werewolf, turned by Remus Lupin. Dumbledore managed to use Harry's fame to grant him permission to continue attending Hogwarts, but lycanthropy is a perfect excuse for the Ministry to dismiss his claims about Voldemort's return. Now hated both for his testimony and for his lycanthropy, Harry returns to Hogwarts more a pariah than ever.
Harry is used to his years at school being "adventurous," but this year may just turn into a fight for survival.

Summary
What was the point of being a disgrace, Mabel thought, if she wasn’t allowed to do that properly?
Mabel Estes is the illegitimate halfblooded daughter of a minor pureblood Lord, and she's fine. She just needs a way to disappear over the summer, that's all. Unfortunately, she can't join her best friend Clementine Lasik in the muggle foster care system, so she needs something a little more magical.
The animagus transformation seems like the perfect answer to Mabel's problems, but Clem's worst fears come true when the process goes horribly wrong. Now trapped in his animal form, Clem has to learn how to cope while Mabel confronts her guilt. They need each other more than ever, but Mabel is holding on to her secrets and Clem is struggling not to lose himself to despair. Can they learn to lean on each other, or will their troubles prove too much?

Summary
Sakura doesn't know how to be a grade captain. He barely even knows how to be human. But whether he understands or not, there's trouble brewing that he has to deal with... but he may not be ready for it.
Kaji's grown up all his life being told that he's a monster, a beast- at least until he met Hiragi, and he finally got the chance to learn how to be the human he always has been. Except... he may not have ever been human- or at least, not as human as everyone else around him. Before he even has a chance to grapple with that idea, trouble arises...

Summary
At nine, Sanchiyo is handed to the Imagawa as a hostage — the surety on his father's oath, a small body set down as a promise and half-forgotten by the house that gave him away. Ten years pass, and he grows up on Imagawa rice, among boys who become something like brothers, under a lord who gives him his adult name; the word hostage fades until he no longer feels it. Then a rider brings word that his father has opened his gates to the Takeda, and in a single afternoon Kanetsugu learns what he has always been and never let himself see: not a ward, not a near-son, but collateral — the one thing left in the enemy's hall to answer for a betrayal he had no hand in.
They do not kill him. A dead hostage can be grieved and put away; a living one can be made, slowly and over years, into a message sent north — proof of exactly what a broken oath is worth. So he is kept, and taken apart by inches by the people who raised him, left to hold himself together however he can — and the only kindness shown him may, in the end, be the cruelest thing of all.
