    Summary

    Two best friends. Two rivals. Two years. Mary and Lily. Dorcas and Marlene. What could possibly go wrong (or, even better, what could go right?)?

    This is a (hopefully long) marylily and dorlene fanfic, because I am so sick and tired of trying to find these types of fics in this fandom and scrolling through wlw ships just to find them as a side pair in an mlm fic.

    Hopefully someone will find and enjoy this, because it's so fun to write.

    Summary

    “So—what are you suggesting? Friends?” She says the word like it tastes bitter, and it does.

    Dorcas’ hand tightens on hers. “A truce. We work together to keep our houses from each other’s throats for as long as it takes to finish the season.”

    “And you think that could actually work?”

    “We’ll make it work.” Dorcas leans closer, until she’s all Marlene can see. “I want the chance to beat you.”

    Or, Marlene grows into who she is meant to be, which comes with a side of being disastrously attracted to her Quidditch rival, Dorcas Meadowes. But when the conflict between their houses spirals out of control, they're forced to work together, or else risk being kicked off their teams. What could go wrong?

    Summary

    Marlene McKinnon and Dorcas Meadowes had always had strong feelings towards one another. But for a long time, that feeling was a deep-rooted distain. Dorcas thought Marlene was obnoxious, arrogant, and self-centred. Marlene thought Dorcas was too quick to judge, stuck up, and as snobby as the rest of the Slytherins. The flawed aspects of one another’s characters had never surprised either of them. But what did surprise them, was realising that there was a great deal more to the both of them that neither had realised.

    This is a canon compliant, incredibly slow burn, rivals to lovers fic, that covers from the start of Hogwarts to 1981. Prepare for ANGST!

    Disclaimer... I do NOT support JK Rowling and the ways she's using her platform to spread hate about the Trans community.

    Summary

    Marlene McKinnon is a mess. She can’t sleep, she’s almost certainly going to fail all her NEWTs, and she’s 99% sure that if they don’t win the Quidditch Cup this year James Potter will throw himself headfirst off the Astronomy Tower. On top of all that, there’s a war on, yet their professors seem determined to pretend that the biggest problem any of them are facing is finding a Ministry internship. Marlene’s final year at Hogwarts has barely started, and she’s already pretty sure it couldn’t get any worse—that is, until she shows up for her first Potions class and hears the assignment.
    ///
    Dorcas Meadowes is a stone-cold bitch. At least, that’s what everyone says. She doesn’t need well-meaning professors or overeager classmates or teammates or boyfriends or friends. She doesn’t need anything except to be left alone, the way she likes, until the day she finally leaves school. And she certainly doesn’t need Marlene McKinnon, with her sharp tongue and her snorting laugh and her stupid shiny hair, who seems intent on ruining everything that Dorcas has been working towards for the past two years.
