"Rivalry" is now posted! I'm very happy about this. It took so long to get this entire story on paper. I've grown quite fond of it.
I also have a new present from the lovely ByMerlinsBeard!
I promise, I haven't forgotten about Draco and Hermione. I'm just dawdling a bit. :(

Out of the Fire by LuckyRatTail
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Straight after the events of HBP. As Snape and Malfoy make for the exit, the latter has second thoughts. He remembers Dumbledore's words in his desire to escape the wrath of the Dark Lord. Darkness, confusion and a lot of rain.
Extract:
"However," the terrible voice resumed in a tone constructed solely of icy menace. "You are young. Too young to understand. No matter how far you go, no matter who you stay with or where you hide - if you run from me I will find you, and when I do you will pay."
Final chapter up! COMPLETE

Death Rose by Purplemage
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: “True Love” Two little words. One big concept. A belief that someone, somewhere is holding the key to your heart. The only thing you have to do is find them. So where is this person? And how do you find them?
Some people do, some people think they do, and some people never do. Sirius didn’t know if Remus was his true love, but he didn’t care. He would follow the werewolf to the end of the world if he had to.
