Summary
The House was a rose in the garden of the Empire, and the Empire watered its garden with blood.
It had been many long years since the last feeding. But the Empire did not let its roses wilt, and the House’s patience was rewarded one fine morning not long after the new Crawleys’ arrival, when Tom Branson arrived, young and bright and full of righteous dreams.
Oh, the House sighed when he appeared on the gravel drive. Love at first sight. Here is one just for me.

Summary
They sought her out for conversation sometimes, cornering her in the garden or at the park, not that they ever had much to say. Really, Harriet thought snakes were rather dull.
---------
Harriet Potter has always been odd. Between having a shadow that moves on its own and chatting with grass snakes, learning she's a witch really isn't the strangest thing to happen to the bespectacled girl with a lightning scar on her neck.
Harriet attends Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where she makes new friends, encounters a prickly Potions Master, learns about the Boy Who Lived, and meets the enigmatic Defense Against the Dark Arts instructor, Professor Tom Slytherin.

Bookmarker's Notes
idk it turns out idle Tumblr thematic analyses are all the background you need to understand a Buffy fic
it's kind of refreshing to read a hunger games fic where someone can like makeup and it's not symbolic of the luxuries of the few that oppress the many. probably bc that's the whole point of the hunger games series but whatever
