Slytherincess

Adjudication: To settle judiciously. Forgive thyself, for love is a complicated thing. The trio's seventh year finds Ron desperately worried for Harry's fate, hopelessly pining for Hermione's attentions, and slowly coming to terms with his family, himself, and his eventual place in the world. After escaping a life-threatening situation through wit and resourcefulness, Ron will learn the hard way how one singular event can change everything. This, combined with the unexpected attentions of one perfectly wretched, ever-vexing Slytherin girl, will forever meld together within Ron's psyche to weave a rich and complex foundation for a future life fully lived. One moment. One choice. One lifetime.

Following Dumbledore's death, Draco Malfoy finds himself a prisoner and a ghost of sorts, held captive in an unfamiliar, mouldering mansion and invisible to all but one under the protection of the Fidelius Charm.

No matter where it's moved to, the invisible tendrils of the Mirror of Erised snake about the castle at night, culling the vulnerable through their dreams, beckoning subconsciously even to the haughty and impervious. Dumbledore is wise to hide Erised away from prying eyes. When a frustrated student can no longer stand the torture of the unattainable reflected over and again in Erised's murky depths, he destroys the mirror in a fit of rage. A lone shard of Erised's glass goes unrecovered, and it's but a matter of time before the shard regenerates into an entirely new mirror, brimming with new, wicked magic -- what could possibly be more devestating to confront than one's heart's deepest desire? Hold up the mirror and see for yourself.

Warmed in the sunshine, never felt before, the snakelings attempted in vain to bathe in seas forbid: the Serpent cold and torpid by the frozen Pole, too cold for contest, warmed, and rage assumed from heat too close, took flight, impeded by his wain. A retelling of canon from the Slytherins' point of view, and a relationship of the most forbidden kind -- two Slytherins caught in the cruel shadow of fate.

Fifth Year: Draco Malfoy loses a formal wizards' duel to George and Ron Weasley and is forced to take Muggle Studies as a consequence. Unable to resist bearing witness to Draco's shame, the Gryffindors and Malfoy's fellow Slytherins also decide to come along for the ride. Told from the view of Pansy Parkinson. Unexpected surprises and insights are in store for both groups. Oh, and of course snogs and more snogs. SHIPS: Pansy/Draco, Ron/Hermione, and we'll just have to see about the others! Realistic, Slytherin-centric story, with romance, humor, drama, and maybe a touch of angst here and there. Started before OoTP.

Harry Potter finds himself inexplicably attracted to Pansy Parkinson. She absolutely refuses to reciprocate until he formally and politely requests her affections in Parseltongue. Harry does his very best to accommodate her request.

Seven years post-Hogwarts: Harry and Pansy meet up in Diagon Alley and embark on a very naughty reunion. Plenty of vodka, wine, and wicked spells--- plus shags and the Petrificus Totalis. HET with SLASH implications. Voyeurism. Harry gets in touch with his inner Slytherin, with fascinating results!
