Notes: AU in a minor way from half-way through 7th year onwards. All characters engaged in sexual activity are 18. Thanks so much to Rike and Kiss for helping get this fic going and holding both my hands! Thanks Crups for the super short-notice beta, and to the mods for their continued patience! All remaining mistakes are my own. The title (which I have changed) is from Santigold’s ‘Disparate Youth’. Written for hprarefest 2012.
Summary: It’s a fine line between your life falling apart and just beginning.
