    Summary

    Hermione Granger has always hated the phrase life carries on especially in middle of World War II Britain in the tiny village of Ecclesbourne where her library helps hold together a population inundated by grief.

    Then, on Whit Monday, 1942, Squadron Leader Roger Davies arrives in Ecclesbourne to inform Hermione Granger that the Air Ministry requires her library.

    She gives him the building. Barely.

    Flight Lieutenant Harry Potter takes up residence at the reference desk. He has a cane, a library card he consistently fails to use, and a copy of A Tale of Two Cities he is technically stealing.

    The village of Ecclesbourne has opinions about the RAF. The RAF has opinions about the village. The war continues with no particular regard for either.

    And meanwhile, Hermione is learning, in a requisitioned library in a village holding her grief and that of others, that carrying on is not evasion.

    And in fact, it may be the whole point.

    Written for the Empire and Eras Fest and Harmony Out-of-the-Ordinary fest.

    Summary

    Once he was in front of the mirror, he just stared at his reflection. It was now or never. Closing his eyes, he shrugged off his jacket and pulled his shirt over his head. He opened his eyes and looked at his reflection once again.

    It was immediately noticeable.

    Underneath his left collarbone sat a constellation. There was no reason to identify it. It did not matter what constellation it was. He didn’t need to ponder over who might have that birth sign because Fred was absolutely sure, without a single drop of doubt, that he did not have that soul mark before he’d just touched Hermione Granger.

    “Bollocks.”

    Summary

    The war is looming on the horizon, a storm waiting to break: cold, unyielding, and impossible to ignore.
    Hermione Granger knows her duty, and she won’t be caught unprepared.

    And yet, between Fred and Hermione, something else is stirring—quiet sparks in the shadows, a warmth that refuses to be ignored. Something she hadn’t prepared for.
    Sometimes, love is where you least expect it.

    A canon re-write, starting in the Order of the Phoenix, where Hermione and Fred find themselves becoming friends.
    (And maybe that's enough to change it all.)
