Summary
Peeta is seven the first time he sees the Girl. He’s reeling from a backhand, blood filling his mouth and the sky is a darkening gray. For a moment he’s alone and the world is so empty. Then suddenly nothing is simple.
There’s a flash of color, a rainbow of faded cloth against the gray background. A girl, the Girl is watching him and when he meets her eyes she smiles. Maybe it’s the Universe or Fate, or maybe Peeta somehow knows how his own story will end, but he doesn’t turn away.
-
Katniss is eight the first time she finds a Ghost. Her father is off digging through the earth, looking for her namesake, when a feeling of wrongness catches her off guard.
For a moment there’s nothing. Then she sees a boy, who has no place in the forest, standing by a tree, bruises around his neck, peeking out from beneath his collar.
(Or Katniss and Peeta can see ghosts, some things change for the better, some things don’t)

Summary
He’d tucked too much of himself inside that little gift. Long muffled secrets, wishfulness, and a final concession made before laying it all to rest. That present had been meant to bring him peace. He’d known it was selfish, and he’d hoped she wouldn’t think much of it, wouldn't go looking too closely.
But if there’s one thing he’s learned about Hermione Granger in the last five years, it’s that she digs in. With teeth, if necessary. He should have known.
[In which five years of Draco Malfoy keeping his distance doesn't work.]

Summary
Rey keeps seeing mysterious poems written in her old books and college notebooks.
They make her reminisce about the first, and only, person she had ever fallen in love with, who currently lives worlds away as a highly successful author, and really, why would she even think about texting him first?
It’s not like he’s got time for nobodies, like old college friends...
or, the one where she wants to know who could have written all these old poems, and everybody wants to know about the girl in all of his.

Summary
After six years of friendship (and unrequited feelings on Rey's part), Ben reveals a secret talent and starts braiding Rey's hair. The fact that he learned the skill out of love and the only other person he does this for is his mom probably doesn't mean anything, right? ... Right?
(Spoiler alert: it totally does.)
Alternatively known as: Ben Solo, braid master.

Summary
She’s aware of three different things all at once.
First, best-selling author Ben Solo is terribly young.
Second, he’s beautiful.
Third, she finally realizes why he needs someone to type his book for him.
Ben Solo, best-selling author of her favorite books, is blind.
-- or: Rey has always been a fan of Ben Solo’s books. His words fill a void in her heart. When she hears about the job, she promptly applies. Rey doesn’t understand why he would need a stenographer. Not until she meets him.

Bookmarker's Notes
“And it’s not– It’s not fucking easy. Every time I write– it’s like I’m fighting a war,” he says, the words tumbling out of his mouth one after the other and she lets him talk, because she knows he needs it right now. “I’m fighting against the words, I’m fighting to search for the words that I need to tell the story I want to tell, but I can’t ever find them and I have to settle down for what I manage to grasp. It’s like trying to hold onto a cloud. It’s– God, it’s almost painful and I’m not even sure I enjoy it. I just do this because I love the story I want to tell more than I hate the process of telling it.”

lie with me and just forget the world by hi_raeth

Summary
For Rey Solo, the year is 2016. She’s just woken up in the hospital, she’s recovering from a car crash, and she’s wondering where the hell her husband is.
For Ben Solo, the year is 2021. It’s been two years since the divorce, since the worst mistake in all of history, since the day he walked away from the love of his life.
Sometimes, the universe has a weird (and potentially fatal) way of bringing people back together.
(Alternatively: the one where I return to that tired trope of “but that’s not how amnesia works” to put exes Rey and Ben through a whole lot of angst before they find their way back to each other.)

keep calm and let HR handle it by hi_raeth for OptimisticBeth

Summary
Rey managed to go a full year without ever directly interacting with her new CEO, but now it seems like he’s dropping by her office every single week.
(Because what else is a love-struck fool to do when he falls for his head of HR other than find reasons to visit her department?)
OR: five times Ben gets summoned down to HR, and one time Rey gets called into the CEO’s office, based on the prompt: "Rey as the director of HR at [office] and Kylo/Ben starts finding reasons to be sent down to HR".

First Order IT, Can I Get Your User ID? by krossartist

Summary
Niima Outpost was a humble little auto shop, with only Rey and her friend/co-worker Finn at its helm. But despite its small-town, local charm, it was a branch company of First Order Incorporated. For all the little branches and all the different businesses, they had one IT department. A massive IT department, she was sure of it, it had to be.
And yet whenever Rey had to call IT, which was about twice the amount of times a normal person would call "excessive," she got the same IT guy. Every. Damn. Time.
She named him Fuckhead.
He had grown to hate her fondly.Series

Summary
She comes over the following Friday morning, wearing a pencil skirt and looking frazzled but happy. She stands on the porch and doesn’t appear to want to come in.
“Can’t stay. Debate approaching, you know it. But I made this for you.”
She drops a Tupperware in his hands, pushes up on her toes to kiss him on the cheek, and then runs down his gravel driveway and ducks back into her Uber.
He waits until the car has turned around the corner to take off the lid, finding a small square cheesecake with some raspberries wedged inside the corners. He eats it sitting on his doorstep, sharing it with his neighbor’s obese cat, who will take up visiting him every morning in the vain hope of a repeat.
It’s maybe a little too sweet for Ben, but by the last bite it has grown on him.

Summary
And that’s how Ginny came to knit a stocking. Red and green with a cursive J on the front. It wasn’t incredible, not the pinnacle of homemade crafts, but it was something she made for her kid and that in itself made it perfect. She hung it on the fireplace next to her and Harry’s stockings, right in the centre, and perhaps that was the moment she realised she could do this. That she was going to do this. The parenting thing. The mother thing.
She might not be perfect, she may stumble along the way, but she can do it. She can.

"He hurt me," Sirius contends. "I've been living on the streets of fuckin', fuckin', fucken', Ealing. Ealing's a shithole, Jamie. I got mugged. He took my fags and knocked my teeth out."

Summary
On the fifteenth of December, 2001, at eleven PM, Harry Potter found a door off the seventh-floor Charms corridor which opened onto blank space.
On the sixteenth of December, 2001, at four AM, James Potter clawed his way out of the earth.
His hands were torn and bloodied from digging, he wore no clothes and his head ached something fierce, but his magic bubbled beneath his skin and the moon was bright.
James sat on his headstone for a moment, and listened to the sounds of birds moving in the trees; he looked down, and saw the name of his wife, and the cold hit him like a bludger.

It was his Dad Face of Strong Displeasure, and it was a reminder that he was here for something.
(Actually, strictly speaking-- it was Fleamont Potter’s Dad Face, superimposed on James’ face. He was-- god, James was thirty-five. Thirty-six, maybe. He’d been dead for over a third of Remus’ life. Almost half.)
