    Summary

    My darling boy,

    For years I had it drummed into me that no love could last for life...

    I want you darling seriously to delve into your own mind, and to look for once in to the future.

    Imagine the time when the war is over and we are living together... would it not be better to live on from now on the memory of our life together when it was at its most golden pitch.

    -Gordon Bowsher to Gilbert Bradley, February 1st 1941

    Summary

    None of it happened on purpose. None of it was supposed to happen.

    For Babe and Gene, going to war involves a lot more finding home than either of them had expected. It's not quite that simple, of course, because nothing in war ever is, but it's closer than you might think.

    Summary

    "Are you going for the course?" Lovegood asked. "You have the NEWTs.”

    “What course?” Draco said, then, “No, don’t be ridiculous,” when he realized she meant the notice pinned up on the board he’d been staring at: Applicants To The Introductory Mediwizard Course For The Coming Term Shall Present Themselves In The Chief Mediwizard’s Office By August 24th.

    “Oh, I thought you might,” she said. “Well, goodbye.” And off she wandered again in her addled way.

    I love the magic and the world of this story. Draco's character is very thought through and I love how he is still kind of an asshole.

    Summary

    It doesn’t take long for the rumors to start.

    The Fire Nation prides itself on its civilization. It isn’t like the other, lesser, nations who throw their children away by sending them into war. Those uncultured and unfeeling savages who are destroying their own future faster than the Fire Nation can save them from themselves.

    Every Fire Nation child goes to school. They learn reading and writing, the illustrious history of their country, and what will be expected of them as proper, upstanding Fire Nation citizens. They are to be protected, because children are the future glory of the nation.

    The crown prince is thirteen when his father burns his face in front of an audience of hundreds.
