Y/n, short and sweet, was Hogwarts’ ‘goody two shoes’. She never swore, hardly raised her voice, and has never ever skipped a class. Other kids at Hogwarts took advantage of this, of course, because she made it easy. She didn’t like confrontation, so she just took hits without a word most of the time. However, when a group of fellow Slytherins decided to play a horrible prank on her during the summer by writing a fake letter from her crush, something snapped.
Y/n — Severus Snape’s only daughter — has lived with her mother, Marcia, her whole life. She’d visit her father, sure, but it wasn’t often. After being expelled from her own school, Y/n’s mother decides that Hogwarts might be a better fit for her and sends Y/n to live with her father so she could attend. It’s during this time that Y/n meets a group of equally troublesome students in Slytherin, and they connect instantly — creating unbreakable bonds and close friendships.
Tom and Y/n’s ’no strings attached’ relationship suddenly becomes ‘all strings attached’ when one of them (Tom) does the one thing neither of them were supposed to do—catch feelings.
The Wizarding pure-blood society approaches the most important time of the year—networking, strategic partnerships, and matchmaking. Pure-blood families mingle, conversing about the prospect of marriage for their children, and network about business and/or society plans. Tom Riddle, however, was indifferent. Sure, he’d attend these balls and parties, but it was always strategic. A charming smile here, an engaging conversation there. He was a master at winning people over.
At Hogwarts, Tom gets a girlfriend — a nice girl from Hufflepuff — and brings her to one of Slytherin’s house parties to meet his friends. A couple months go by, and his girlfriend — Sophie — wants to get more serious. However, after Tom and his best friend Y/n accidentally lock themselves in the prefect’s bath for the night, he realizes the person he truly has feelings for has been right in front of him the whole time.
It’s all good times, drama, and jokes with a group of seventh year Slytherins at Hogwarts. Everyone’s busy planning Yule Ball outfits and dates, some more ambitious students are entering their names in the Goblet of Fire, hoping to be chosen. Quidditch players are taking their practices more seriously for the most important upcoming match of the semester.
Life, when you’re an eighteen year old Slytherin in your seventh year at Hogwarts is anything but simple. Gossip is like air. Library and/or Come and Go room makeout sessions are frequent. Girls flirt by throwing not-so-subtle subtle hints that the boys are too stupid to catch, and the boys flirt by flexing, teasing the girls, and arguing. Drama is currency. And every bad day feels like the end of the world.
Alessandro Moretti can have anything he wants. Then he sees Y/n beneath the lights of The Velvet Room—and for the first time, wanting something isn’t enough. She’s stubborn, independent, and completely unimpressed by the feared Don everyone else knows better than to challenge. He falls first. She refuses to fall at all. But when a betrayal drags Y/n into Alessandro’s dangerous world, attraction becomes trust, trust becomes something far more dangerous, and the man who controls an entire criminal empire discovers there is one thing he’ll never demand: Her heart. Because Alessandro doesn’t just want Y/n. He wants her to choose him.
It’s the most important time of year for Hogwarts Students. Summer break. Fortunately for this group of friends, they all live relatively close, so that means an entire three months of hanging out, doing dumb shit, and not having any responsibilities.
The wild, chaotic, and cold Slytherins never cared about much, they were selfish, cruel, and entirely incapable of any warm feeling. Or so they thought. Because the second they met Y/n everything changed, their worlds shifted, and suddenly they had focal point and that was her —Y/n.
Life for The Marauders was normal, er… well, what they considered normal, at least. Between James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter, their days were consisted of chaos, trouble, quidditch, and downright stupidity. James was dating golden girl, Lily, Sirius was dating a kind Ravenclaw, Peter had his sweet Hufflepuff, But Remus? Well, Remus found himself suddenly wanting a taste of the dark side. And by dark side, I mean Y/n.
Plot: During Tom Riddle’s strive for power and rising influence, he finds a job at Borgin and Burkes, a shop in which he uses to gain access to powerful, dark objects and historical artifacts. A wrench is thrown in his plans, however, when a young woman, Y/n, visits the shop. A young woman who couldn’t be more different than him. Kind, compassionate, a gentle beauty. He’s suddenly greeted by new found feelings he doesn’t want, and against his will, those feelings only grow. Will he ignore those feelings and return to his dark ambitions or will he surrender to love?
Plot: Y/n and Mattheo, who are from two different worlds, unexpectedly get thrown together for a school assignment. Cold glares, heated arguments and harsh words slowly change to something different. Something more. But the two face internal and external conflicts working to tear them apart.
Y/n becomes the Slytherin Quidditch team’s healer. Which means she’s always there at practices, always there at games. Thomas loves the attention. Mattheo teases them relentlessly. But then a Durmstrang Seeker transfers in and joins the team and he openly flirts with Y/n. Thomas becomes increasingly possessive. Cue locker-room fights, jealous practices, dramatic post-game kisses.
Plot: It’s the summer of 96’ and the infamous band of Slytherins prepare for the upcoming school year that’s fast approaching in just a week. Tom falls in love with Y/n.
Slytherin party, late at night and music blasting. Everyone’s either smoking or drinking. Draco and Astoria are dating, Daphne and Blaise are dating, and Pansy and Lorenzo are dating.
The battle is over. Voldemort has been defeated. Death Eaters were either captured and sent to Azkaban or ran off into hiding. The Wizarding World has finally started to get back to normal. Families are reunited and children are safe again.
The Slytherins find themselves locked in detention for the night after a fight within the friend group broke out and caused the Room of Requirement to be destroyed in the fall out. During detention tensions are high, and everyone is pointing fingers, but being locked in together forces the group to bond, and reconcile.
One last summer. That’s all they have. Because in Pureblood society? Expectations are passed down from generation to generation like family heirlooms. Just as expensive. And just as unforgiving if you lose them.
After Voldemort’s death, Hogwarts reopens for students to finish their final year. Among them is Tom Riddle, Voldemort’s eldest son, feared by all and under Auror observation, expected to inherit darkness. But Tom refuses to follow in his father’s footsteps.
Life at Hogwarts, for The Marauders at least, was never dull. Trouble, mischief, and laughter followed these close friends no matter where they went. Every day, it seemed, felt like a comedy show just for them, and they often found themselves in ridiculous or stupid situations.
