Flawed by Ginny Weasley Potter
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: Nobody is perfect; every human being has his or her own set of imperfections, be it physical or otherwise. They say that the beautiful full moon has spots too. But isn’t that saying designed to pacify people about their imperfections?
They say love is all about acceptance and compatibility; that when two people fall in love, one person’s shortcomings are covered for by the other person, and vice-versa. But love is not just that. It is much more. It is bigger and better-- because sometimes, even when we cannot cover up for the limitations of the ones we love, we accept the flaws as endearing and are ready to live with them for the rest of our lives.

Swans by Equinox Chick
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: I’m twenty-seven years old, so why can’t I just say no, or plead a headache and stay in my room?
