Summary
There's a valley nestled between the green and blue mountains, with a shining castle, trees that turn champagne pink in autumn, and an AWFUL lot of red tape. Welcome to a place that may be a bit different than what you read in your travel books. Make sure your gold coins are properly shined - they won't take them in the shops otherwise. Hope you've got lots of pockets in that illustrious cape. There are plenty of things that might come in useful on your adventure.
(This is the new home of my standalone ficlets. Some stories that were previously found in "Rippling Consequences" can now be found here.)

Summary
"Sooner or later, the hour ordained for you to be brilliant will arrive. God help you, do not let it slip by."
Haphazard scenes from the world of my novel in progress, in which a juggler and a prince inveigle their way into the world's most elite performing company, to pull off a rescue they are not so sure they should be aiming for. More of a scene/ficlet collection than a novel.

Lavender Brown, Severus Snape, and the Fangs of Fate by yearofthesnape
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

Summary
When Lavender Brown sees someone in trouble, her first instinct is to go help, even if that someone is as unpleasant as a Blast-Ended Skrewt. So in fifth year, when Lavender has a prophetic dream in which Professor Snape is bitten by a giant snake, she immediately starts planning to save him.
Along the way, Lavender learns to enjoy Potions and even, slowly, starts to appreciate the teacher she's trying to save. Their newfound mentorship, however, makes the bewilderment Lavender feels all the more painful when Snape kills Dumbledore at the end of sixth year. What does it mean to have faith and kindness, when there seems to be so little to go around?
The future has teeth Lavender can’t predict, and all her bids for security go nowhere. But that doesn’t mean there can’t be other, better surprises in store.
Now complete! Covers the events of OotP through DH, with a short post-DH section, as follows.

Summary
With a sly smile, he eyed the time-turner. It gleamed like gold, just the way the Malfoys liked it. With this, he could save his son. He went for the door, but came to a sudden halt when realization hit him: With the time turner, he could save more than just one person.
(Draco-centric time travel fanfiction, starting 3rd year, this story is gen, meaning romance is not the focus, although there'll be some in later chapters)
