Summary
“But you just said honor is about doing what’s right. You must have known that wasn’t right,” Sokka presses.
There’s a long moment of silence. Then, “I knew it didn’t feel right. But I always told myself that if I knew the first thing about honor, I would still be home.”
“I don’t understand."
“I didn’t, either,” Zuko sighs.

Of course Sokka has seen the scar. It’s kind of hard to miss.
…It just hadn’t occurred to him that it meant anything.

Summary
Hermione was vaguely aware of Dobby’s clear, proud voice answering Bellatrix’s bawling. Malfoy grunted next to her, blood pouring from a gash that ran over his eye and down his cheek. With effort, he had finally managed to extricate himself from the gnarled weight of the chandelier that had been trapping them both on the ground. Tearing his robes, he managed to stand. Just as he did, a small, heavily tarnished object the size of a snitch fell from within his ruined robes and hit the ground, rolling toward where Hermione still sat, her left leg pinned. She looked up to see Malfoy’s face blanch with horror, his eyes flicking from the object up to Hermione’s face. Time froze for a split second, their eyes locked. If this was something Malfoy did not want her to have, it was likely worth having, or at least worth keeping away from him.
Hermione’s hand shot out to grab it as Malfoy lunged forward with a desperate, “NO!” Her finger barely brushed it as his body slammed into hers. She felt a familiar tug behind her navel and the drawing room disappeared.

Summary
Those who abolished the Statute of Secrecy in 1945 never intended the horrors that came afterwards.
By 1998, Wizarding Britain—styled after a reborn Roman Empire with Imperator Voldemort at its helm—controls most of Europe. Resistance is brutally crushed, muggles are in chains, and muggleborns are martyred by dragon fire in front of screaming crowds.
Hermione Granger is a domestic slave working in the Malfoy household, dreaming of a remade world, and hiding magic in her veins. Discovery means certain death.
Draco Malfoy, a tribune and spy for the Imperial Legion, carries the weight of painful secrets. For years, the only way to live with his dark reality has been to shut his eyes to it.
…But she has a burning star inside her—the light of an entire sun…
And now he is caught between the denial which defines his survival, and the woman he cannot deny.

Summary
A strain of the Black Death has mutated in the wizarding world. A muggle disease that has long been cureable, has now mingled with magic which has devastating effects. Victims rot away until they are nothing but blackened bones; a 100% fatality rate. The magical world is calling it ‘Nox’, because once you catch it, the lights go out.
A decade after Voldemort has been defeated, Britain’s wizarding world has only just begun to repopulate and proactively rebuild after war. As the Nox runs its course, leaving magical hamlets and villages in states of terror and death, the new fear is that their population is facing extinction.
Hermione Granger, the newly elected Director of St. Mungos is called to find a cure, and Draco Malfoy, an ex-auror, who now leads the Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes is in charge of tracking down patient zero, and finding out how this happened.
It’s been ten years since the death of Voldemort, and ten years since they fought against each other in the war. Now that there’s a new threat to the wizarding world, can they join together in saving it?
