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
"All her growth was the conveying of a corpse of hope."
(From 'The Rainbow', D.H. Lawrence)This is a story about coming into one's own, a meditation on the twilight of girlhood and the violence of crash-landing into womanhood. Follow Hermione as she navigates through the quagmire: Saving the world, getting top grades, falling in love, lust, and a whole lot of trouble, and comes out of it hopefully (at least) partially sane.

Om chapter 59. The one where Hermione becomes friends with Theo Nott in "eighth year" and through him also starts to get to actually know Malfoy.

Summary
Fudge doesn’t try to ignore Voldemort’s return at the end of the 4th Year. Instead, influenced by Malfoy, he tries to appease the Dark Lord. Many think that the rights of the muggleborns are a small price to pay to avoid a bloody war. Hermione Granger and the other muggleborns disagree. Vehemently.

Summary
Arthur remembers everything on his twenty first birthday.
Merlin isn't there.
-
“Okay, so let me get this straight,” Arthur said, resisting the urge to bury his face in his hands and scream until the world made sense again. “We’ve all been reborn over a thousand years after our deaths, met one another, seemingly by chance, then all regained our memories on the same day, while wandering around a museum exhibit on our previous lives. Did I miss anything?”

Summary
Merlin is old, even if he does't look it.
Loki still tries to invade earth.
-
'“Director?” Coulson called over the radio. “Directer Fury, do you copy?”
Instead of saying something like, ‘yes, agent, me and my assistant are fine, thank you,’ Fury responded with, “The tesseract is with a hostile force. I have men down. Hill?”
“A lot of men still under,” Agent Hill responded, sounding harried. “I don’t know how many survivors.”
“Sound a general call,” Fury ordered. “I want every living soul not working rescue looking for that briefcase.”
“Rodger that,” Hill responded.
“Coulson, get back to base. This is a Level Seven.” Fury glanced over at Merlin as he continued, “As of right now, we are at war.”
Merlin pursed his lips at that, looking back the way Loki had disappeared.
“What do we do?” Coulson asked quietly.
Fury lowered his radio slowly, staring out at nothing. “Will you help?” He asked Merlin, not bothering to face him.
Merlin bit his lip, thinking. Then he sighed, and squared his shoulders. “The prat would never forgive me if he found out I’d run off somewhere instead. ’Specially now he knows I can actually handle myself.”'

Summary
Merlin is old.
S.H.I.E.L.D. takes notice
"In all the years since Arthur’s death, Merlin had experienced a lot. He’d spent quite a bit of time staring at the lake and being a depressed lump, but somewhere along the line he managed to convince himself that Arthur would be disappointed in him if he found out Merlin had hovered about and didn’t do anything useful or interesting the entire time he was dead. He’d been wandering around, assuming different identities now and then as needed, and helping out when he could. Unfortunately, he was fairly certain somebody had noticed. So here he was, in America, in his old man disguise, awaiting the inevitable."
