Summary
James Potter thought that his last year at Hogwarts would likely turn out uneventful. And Regulus Black was looking forward to some peace and quiet at Beauxbatons.
Neither of them could have ever expected that the Triwizard Tournament would return after nearly two-hundred years.
Hundreds of students will enter to have a shot at the coveted Triwizard Cup. But only three will be chosen – and only one will take home eternal glory.
As soon as James had heard that the Triwizard Tournament would be returning to Hogwarts, he was sure he’d never wanted anything more than to win it. But James would soon learn, upon meeting a certain contender for the tournament from Beauxbatons, he hadn’t yet known what it meant to truly want something.

Summary
“You want to write letters to Lily but you’re too shit at it so you’re asking me to do it for you?”
James sighed, his shoulders dropping and his hands resting on his hips. “Yeah basically.”
“Love letters?”
“Yeah. So will you do it?”
***
Regulus Black had no intentions of adding any more obligations to his busy schedule. He also had no plans of ghost-writing love letters, becoming friends with the object of said letters, nor falling for the man that asked him to write the letters in the first place.
But unfortunately, when James Potter enters one's life, it has a habit of turning everything upside down.
***
Loosely based on "Cyrano de Bergerac" by Edmond Rostand

Summary
Remus Lupin wasn't expecting much when he signed onto a new lease. He certainly wasn't expecting to make the best friends he'd ever have or to unwisely develop feelings for his new flatmate. But he's decided to learn to roll with the punches a bit more.
A fanfiction inspired by the television show "New Girl" (you don't need to have seen the show to read it).

Summary
Jaime, Brienne, football, feminism, friendship, dogs, cake, sex. Good things, basically. No one is getting crushed by bricks after a wildly unbelievable 'relapse' in this story. No one is ending up celibate and having to spend their life playing the diplomat between lots of men who have failed upwards.
Modern universe, this world.
It'll probably be quite crude.

Summary
Taking Bilbo Baggins, a successful movie actor who is only just getting used to the perks and intricacies of becoming A Face People Want To See, and putting him together with Thorin Oakenshield, with his very traditional (read: slightly backwards) ideas about what constitutes Real Art and Real Talent, might very well be viewed as just some clothead’s idea of a joke. But there are jokes, and then there are carefully calculated risks the size of controversial reproductions of classic Shakespearean plays - for Bilbo, it is the chance of a lifetime to prove himself to all those who have ever deemed him too one-dimensional to even attempt stage, while Thorin has the opportunity to get out of the rut that’s been hindering his career for so long now, and shine in a role worthy of his talent once again. That is if the two learn how to share the same space for more than ten minutes without wanting to tear each other’s hair out. The course of true love never did run smooth, after all…

Summary
Remus is a PhD student and hobbyist baker who finds himself adrift following his father’s death. On a whim, he enters the Great British Bake Off and is swept up in a flurry of curdled custard, shrunken souffle, and under-proved dough. Remus expects to be challenged and to embarrass himself on public television. What he doesn’t account for are the friendships he develops with the other contestants and the deep connection he forms with his teenage crush, Sirius Black: charming ex-boy band member and Bake Off presenter.
or,
Sirius groans, dropping his head back into his hands. “It’s the dough,” he mumbles into the skin of his palms. “It’s the kneading. It’s his hands. They’re obscene.”
Lily laughs. “They are a bit, aren’t they?”
