This is a compilation of one-shots inspired by my story Daphne Greengrass and the Importance of Intent. If you enjoyed that story and would like to read more then you've come to the right place.

When the war was won, and the fallen had been mourned, Hermione Granger had one more monumentally important task to complete. She'd thought of every contingency and planned for every variable because failure was not an option. Thank heavens she had a lucky charm...

Sliding Doors by Petrificus Somewhatus Stale Result (Last seen: )

James Potter made a vow to himself that his seventh year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry would be different. He would be responsible, kind, and (hopefully) get the girl. Yes, this year would be different. He had no idea...

Of Fish, Chips, and Salads by Petrificus Somewhatus Stale Result (Last seen: )

Three More Years by Petrificus Somewhatus Stale Result (Last seen: )

By the age of fourteen, Harry Potter had survived his miserable childhood, defeated Voldemort twice, freed his wrongly imprisoned godfather, and was the brightest student in his year.

Elephant by Petrificus Somewhatus Stale Result (Last seen: )

Although Harry suffered through many dark times at Hogwarts, it is my opinion that his teenage years would have been much darker without magic. But even in Harry's darkest times, there would always be lights to follow along the way.

Married With Children by Petrificus Somewhatus Stale Result (Last seen: )

A short one shot in honor of Harry's fortieth birthday. In my opinion Harry's ideal birthday at that age would be extremely underwhelming to an outsider but Harry always did seem to defy the public's expectations.
