    Summary

    “So—what are you suggesting? Friends?” She says the word like it tastes bitter, and it does.

    Dorcas’ hand tightens on hers. “A truce. We work together to keep our houses from each other’s throats for as long as it takes to finish the season.”

    “And you think that could actually work?”

    “We’ll make it work.” Dorcas leans closer, until she’s all Marlene can see. “I want the chance to beat you.”

    Or, Marlene grows into who she is meant to be, which comes with a side of being disastrously attracted to her Quidditch rival, Dorcas Meadowes. But when the conflict between their houses spirals out of control, they're forced to work together, or else risk being kicked off their teams. What could go wrong?

    Summary

    Jean Moreau, despite himself, still wants things. He wants to leave: he needs to drag his broken body back down to its place. He was unconscious when they took him from the Nest, but he knows that won’t spare him the punishment, and the sooner he gets it over with the sooner he gets back on the court. This is a mountain Jean knows how to climb. It’s a tall peak, and he needs to get started. He needs to prove his value, needs to prove his loyalty. This next year is going to be brutal.

    Jeremy Knox likes to win, and even if he can't parallel park in less than fifteen attempts he's finally got his meds figured out and he's got friends who care enough to make him clean his room. And thanks to Kevin, the Trojans are about to poach the best backliner in the league, so he's finally got it all figured out. This next year is going to be awesome.

    Kevin is going to be watching this through his fingers.

    Summary

    Jodie Smith is a transfem private detective with several roommate-irritating quirks. Her biggest regret in life? The one that got away, both professionally and romantically - years ago, before she even came out of the closet, her girlfriend Melody Pond ended a happy multiple-year relationship by suddenly shooting her in the chest, just as Jodie was about to uncover the mystery of Melody’s potential link to a dangerous organisation. Jodie never found out why Melody shot her and, if she’s being honest, she never got over her.

    River Song is a nonbinary author with a knack for getting into trouble. Their biggest regret in life? Shooting their boyfriend, easily. They wish they could apologise and explain why they did it, but, well, it was years ago - they don’t even know how to find him to apologise. For all they know, he doesn’t even go by the same name.

    Missy Saxon is a friend of both of them. Her biggest mistake in life? (Re)Introducing them. She certainly doesn’t have the sense to regret it, though.
