The immediacy of the hug knocked the air from Rory’s lungs. She’d been expecting – well, hoping for it, but the crush of it really brought home that … well, she was home. She threw her arms around Harley just as tightly, not even caring that she’d barely had a chance to savour the success of her...

I heard the news that HNZ after a long, amazing run is going to go out with style and grace, and I have such fond memories of my time here so long ago that I wanted to come back and see out the final celebration with everyone ( / anyone who still remembers me xD). I'm looking forward to catching...

The sunshine back home really was blinding, Rory had decided, but she turned her face towards it all the same. She hadn’t been back in the country long, only a tiny drop of a week in all the years she’d been away, but she could already feel herself settling back into a comfort she’d never even...

The one flaw in Rory's otherwise brilliant chocolate plan, apart from Aodhan not being allowed in the girl's dormitory (which, it would be weird to have him in there anyway, so that was fine), was that Hayley couldn't come into Gryffindor house with the rest of them. It sucked, and they'd all...

Rory was excited to deliver the next rose on her list, and she bounded up the stairs towards the Ravenclaw Tower at a pace that soon had her thighs protesting. But how often would she get to do something like this? A Cheshire grin was already spreading its way across her face, and it only spread...

Rory shared some classes with the next guy on her delivery list, and she was kind of curious to actually talk to him. She wondered if he was just as smarmy out of class as he was when he was answering a professor's question, or if he was completely normal. It was completely by chance that she...

Rory had heard stories about the person who she wanted to deliver to next. It was still endlessly funny to her that Hayley had been made a prefect, and she almost envied the fact that her friend got to walk around after dark without getting in trouble when she was doing rounds. Almost. Rory had...

Once Rory had delivered her first rose, she knew there was no point leaving the Great Hall just yet. Any smart deliverer knew to make a round of all the tables before heading out to hunt in the rest of the castle. As usual, Rory's method consisted of marching down each of the two outside aisles...

There was an ever-growing list of horrifying things that Rory had come to realise during her fifth year at Hogwarts, and the latest thing happened to be that the all of the older students, who she'd ignored for most of her school life, were now just about the only people whose names Rory could...

CURRICULUM VITAE</COLOR></FONT> </COLOR></FONT>[HOGWARTS NEW ZEALAND] The detested necessity, also known as 'school.' As Rory's eleventh birthday began approaching, the conversations amongst her family began in earnest. The Nights have always been Slytherins says her grandfather, conveniently...

Rory had turned up to Hayley's meeting with the other girls, but she didn't think she would have much to contribute to the discussion herself. She was mainly here to support Hayley, and she made sure to stick close to her friend after they had all set the room up. Rory sat backwards on the chair...

Yes, this one was solved for me rather quickly xD Thank you for this though – I can finally have proper en dashes and em dashes— and “typographer’s quotes”! (I’m now a publishing/editing student; this has literally made my entire year =)) )

I'd like to thank Nick for making my night about the use of macrons on this board: It looks so beautiful.

Okay witchcraft, how are you doing that. Any macron I copy-paste does this ---> Mākutu Mall
