My entry for TycheSong's New year/ Happy Birthday, Tyche Challenge!

New Year's Eve is a good time to look back and a time to look ahead.  Firenze is doing just that when he happens upon another individual for whom New Year's Eve is something different.

Potions are a tricky thing and Hermione and Severus learn just how tricky one afternoon while brewing.  The result sends them back in time where they learn a little bit more about themselves than they previously knew.

My entry for TycheSong's "Something Wicked This Way Comes" October challenge.

I chose the prompt: 

“Don't look at me like I'm being silly! The last time I crossed a black cat, I died!”

A trip to Oktoberfest brings memories old and new, funny and bittersweet to a woman visiting Germany after 25 years.

Hermione receives a letter from a very unexpected source with a request for help to learn to be more friendly.  When she accepts, the rest of her life will never be the same.

TchyeSong's August prompt selection "A man's kiss is his signature", a quote by Mae West led me to this little bit of fun.  Hermione Granger has to figure out what it is about a man's kiss that makes it singular, and her in case, the key to waking her up.
