“Are you trying to get killed, Potter?” Malfoy drawls, stalking forward. Quick as a serpent himself, he reaches out and grabs the snake just below the head. It thrashes in his grip, but is no longer able to bite anyone. “This is a poisonous snake, and I doubt anyone brought a bezor with them.”
Harry glares. He opens his mouth, and feels the beginning the snake’s language pass his lips, and this isn’t what he wants, what’s the point of insulting Malfoy if he can’t understand him –
Malfoy’s eyes widen. He slaps his hand over Harry’s mouth, “Potter, what the hell–”

She almost smiles, and true alarm starts to build in his chest. “I’m afraid I’m not here for something so small. Professor Roberts has resigned.”
“Good,” Draco says honestly, “Would you like a list of suitable alternatives? I know a number of competent potions masters abroad, but then of course you’d have to hire another teacher to act as the Slytherin head. I’m afraid you’ve dried up all the half decent Slytherin Potions masters.”
“Not all of them,” she says quietly.
He blinks. She can’t be serious. “You can’t be serious.”
“Gravely,” she says, “Mr. Malfoy, I am not above begging.”
What the bloody fuck. “I don’t even like potions!”

Anthology containing:
hope is the thing with feathers
Stiles is ten when he saves the Hales from their burning home and Derek from a wolfsbane bullet, and this establishes a pattern that seem to continue indefinitely.
"Then he's facing a burning home, and he wraps the hood of his sweatshirt around his mouth before he pushes the door open and steps inside. There's Mr. Hale asleep - he hopes asleep - on the couch, next to - Stiles thinks that's his brother but there are so many Hales, who can keep track. He rushes over and starts shaking him, can see the rise and fall of the man's chest so he knows he's alive, but he's not waking up.
He shoves away his hood so he can shout, "Mr. Hale! You have to get up, there's a fire! Mr. Hale, get up!" Nothing, he's not even twitching, both of them taking in deep even breaths like they're having the most peaceful of rests, and Stiles is going to cry. "Wake up, wake up, wake up!"
There's a moment, where all Stiles can hear is the blood rushing in his ears and not the roar of the flames or the creak of wood, then with a violent, silent pop it's all back and both of the men are gasping awake, eyes open and jumping to their feet. "pain has an element of blank
OH GOD I'M SORRY HERE'S A THING IT DOESN'T CHANGE ANYTHING SORRY
" He considers it the cruelest of injustices that it's Morgana who finds her way back to both life and his side first, if for no other reason than he can't seem to get rid of her.
"The boy is powerful," she leans against his shoulder, passing him a cardboard cup of coffee that's already been leached of warmth by her hand. "
to fight aloud is very brave
Isaac gets pulled into their crazy, but he loves it, really.
"He expects them to forget about him, now that their latest supernatural disaster isn't tied up in his dad's graveyard.
Two days later it's Christmas Eve, and he hasn't managed to wake on Christmas morning not in the freezer in years. He's huddled on top of his bed with his legs pulled to his chest, waiting, because it's still morning, he has hours more until it will get really bad.
His phone buzzes from a number he doesn't recognize.
Hey, I know it's Christmas Eve and all, but I was wondering if you'd meet me for lunch? The diner on main street at 1?
Ok, he sends back, figures it's Stiles, and even if it's not, it's better than staying here."a man may make a remark
Derek's an alpha, the Argents are back in town, Stiles's magic won't listen to him, and if that's not enough, fucking nature nymphs are popping up everywhere. Stiles didn't sign up for this shit.
"Can't you do something?" he pants, and Stiles hates everything.
He slings Scott's arm over his shoulder, "Not really, no, because right now I can do impossible things, mountain ash, and make coffee, that is the extent of my magical abilities for the foreseeable future."
"Well, you're useless," Scott says, and Stiles doesn't answer, because there's two of them closing in, and running away was stupid to begin with, but it was their only hope. Stiles drops Scott to the ground, has no idea how to protect him from both sides. There's a moment while they circle them, and Stiles hopes the alphas are going to play with them, that they'll survive long enough for the Hales to get here.we grow accustomed to the dark
Five years after 'a man may make a remark' Stiles, Scott, Allison, Jackson, Cory, and Danny get pulled into the canon Teen Wolf universe in 3A to fix a wrong Deaton caused and hopefully put this universe on the right track.
This is literally the most self indulgent, ridiculous thing I've ever done.a spider sewed at night
It's the summer between junior and senior year, and they have to deal not only with demanding, dangerous Fae, but with the arrival of their two latest Coven members.
" Scott rubs the back of his head, "Dude, this is kind of gay."
"Dude, we're kind of gay. I'm in love with a man. We've made out. And don't think for one second I haven't seen those looks you give Isaac. Which might actually work out, I bet Cory is just the kinkiest little shit deep down."
Scott flushes red and hauls himself up onto Charlie. "Shut up," he wraps his arms around Stiles's waist, "We're riding into town shirtless on the back of silvery unicorn named Charlie while drunk off our asses from fae magic."
"We've made all the correct life choices," Stiles says happily before urging Charlie forward. "the moon is distant from the sea
The three year long story about the lust (love?) that grows between Mark Hale and Danny Mahealani.
This started out a little thing, but also kinda grew into a peak into the Hales not from Stiles perspective, so cool
Started at hittwf, and spanning until assan."Danny doesn't try to be popular. He just likes people, and he likes Jackson because he values loyalty and he likes Lydia because she's a freaking genius, and sometime around middle school they both became very concerned about being popular. "
the savior must have been a docile gentleman
The gang is all hovering around twenty five and they're starting to get their lives together.
"Riley, can you please analyze-"
"Stiles!" The twenty five year old professor freezes and the students crane their heads to the scowling black woman the doorway. "You're late. You were supposed to get this class covered, today of all days."
Stiles blinks, capping the expo marker, "That's today? Are you sure?"
Braeden scowls, stomping forward to grab him by the collar of his shirt, "Let's go. Now."Shelves: Teen Wolf
