Author's Notes: Thank you to the mods for being so patient with me! And thank you to my beta, because this wanted to be so much longer than the word count allowed and there’s no way I could’ve cut it down without their help. are_guile, I tried to incorporate as much of your wishlist as I could, and I hope this meets your expectations!

Author:
Recipient: jepierre
Tile: The Proposal
Pairing: Neville/Draco
Rating: T
Word Count: 550
Summary: Neville asks Draco to marry him on Christmas.
Author’s Notes: Happy New Year! This is pure holiday fluff! :D

( The Proposal )

Author:
Recipient: maraudersaffair
Title: The First Christmas
Pairing: James/Sirius, James/Lily
Rating: R
Warning(s)/Content: Canon Divergent, Major Character Death (Lily), Bisexual!James, Christmas, War Time, Angst, Grief, Loss of a Loved One, Hurt/Comfort, Past Relationship, Unrequited Love, Pining, Fantasy, Mild Sexual Content
Word Count: 1,985
Summary: It was as palpable today as it had been since: the feeling of a profound absence in the room. Sirius could almost see Lily standing there at James' side, looking radiant as ever. What he wouldn't have done for that to be true...
Author's Notes: This happens to be the second Christmas fic I've written for this pairing―surprisingly enough, considering how rarely I get to work with them. And every time I do get to, I question why I don't write them more often. Anyway, maraudersaffair, I hope you enjoy your gift! This was the first thing that popped into my head after reading your form, and I just had to do it.
