Arcane Attachments & Other Electives by bambistjames

Summary
After the war, Hermione Granger does what any emotionally wrecked, academically overqualified witch might: she disappears to a magical university in upstate New York that doesn’t believe in wands, modesty, or mercy.
Brakebills is supposed to be a fresh start. A place where no one knows her name or what she did during the war. A place to study, to rebuild, maybe to rest.
Then Draco Malfoy shows up.
Still blonde. Still infuriating. Still somehow in her way. He’s not supposed to be here. But neither is she.

Summary
It’s so ludicrous how they got where they are now.
“Marina, why did you stay?”
She looks up at him, her expression suddenly serious, “I can’t tell you.” She cups his face and whispers, “Because you know why, you know the answer.”
Eliot nods, pressing his lips to her palm, “Yes, I do know.”
Marina smiles and tangles her other hand in the locks at the back of his neck, “But you still need to believe it.” -

time cast a spell on you (but you won't forget me) by peacefrog for miscreants
Fandoms: The Magicians (TV)

Summary
Quentin shook out the tension in his hands. He didn’t understand why it wasn’t getting any easier. For days on end he’d been trying to perfect the illumination spell the rest of his fellow First Years had nailed in a matter of hours. But no matter how he tried, Quentin couldn’t seem to make anything more than a spark.
He didn’t know what was worse: that his discipline was apparently shit at magic, or that he’d been placed in the Physical Kids’ Cottage with his ex-whatever-the-hell-they’d-been-in-undergrad because the administration didn’t know what else to do with him. He couldn’t do shit about the latter, but he figured he could at least try and get the basics of magic down before Dean Fogg realized what a grave mistake he’d made in allowing Quentin into Brakebills to begin with.
OR
The one where Quentin and Eliot are exes who had an intense D/s relationship in undergrad.

Quentin Coldwater and the Universal Truth (That a Slytherin as hot as Eliot Waugh would never be attracted to a Hufflepuff such as himself) by Rubick
Fandoms: The Magicians (TV)
27 Sep 2020

Summary
Here he was, at Hogwarts. Quentin had dreamed of being a student here forever. He could feel the magic thrumming in the air, could see it in the lights twinkling in the ceiling.
He felt a tickle on the back of his neck, and he looked to the table of green and silver ties. Quentin forced himself to not look to the ground, and his brown eyes locked with a set of hazel ones. Even at this distance, he could see the intensity within, a sparkle of excitement as they swept over him, head to foot and back up again. Quentin’s breath hitched and he wiped his suddenly damp palms on his robes.
Hazel Eyes also had full dark hair, short, wavy and slightly mussed, with a stray curl or two falling over his forehead. Quentin took in his strong jaw, full lips, a tiny cleft in his chin, and a slightly loosened tie peeking out above the neck of his robe. He exuded the kind of effortless, lazy sexiness that Quentin knew he couldn’t embody in one finger on his best day.
Hazel Eyes made no attempt to hide his appraisal of Quentin. A slow smile spread across his lips as he stared back at him, his look full of promise and intent that Quentin wasn’t sure he could handle. But I sure would love to try, Quentin thought.

Summary
It's been six months since Quentin has (quite literally) stumbled into Brakebills. Six months of pure, magical bliss. And on the day he'll (hopefully) find out his Discipline and his place at Brakebills, Quentin thinks about all the unexpected things he has found here, realising he now has something more powerful and important than magic: a new home.

Summary
"Can I see, please?”
Penny knows she means his arms, so he hesitates for a moment. But she’s so businesslike about it. This feels impersonal, safe. He holds them out to her, a grisly parody of a child asking for a hug.

Eliot and the Art of Sharing by quellthefire
Fandoms: The Magicians (TV), The Magicians - Lev Grossman

Summary
It’s Eliot’s first year at Brakebills and he’s determined to have a good time and look good doing it. He sets his sights on a potential boytoy, and unwittingly gets caught up in the games. When Margo discovers his secret Eliot realizes that for the first time in his life he has a true confidant and friend. And she’s perfectly willing to share in the fun.
This is a pre-canon crossover of sorts between the first book and show. It draws a lot on the book scene where Quentin discovers Eliot and another boy in a Dom/sub roleplay scene.
