    Summary

    Devastated by the violent deaths of his parents, the newly-graduated Harry Potter makes the impulsive decision to join his friends on an expedition to northern Sweden, home of the largest colony of European Parselmouths. With the handsome and charismatic Tom Riddle—who also seems to have developed a strange fascination with Harry—as their guide, he’s slowly drawn deeper and deeper into the nest of serpents. It’s anyone’s guess whether he’ll find his way out again—or how changed he’ll be on the other side.

    Howl is a Time Travel Tomione that is Inspired by Swan Lake.

    Hermione is cursed while trying to destroy Tom Riddle’s locket. She is thrown back in time to the year 1944 with a mysterious curse placed upon her and a locket that is most certainly not destroyed. Suddenly she had large gaps of time missing from her nights, and a male voice in her head that is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore.

    Desperate to return back home, she finds herself trapped in the political games of more than one dark wizard.
    With an unknown curse, eating away at chunks of her time and more challenges with every passing day, she must navigate Hogwarts and Slytherin politics and break her curse before she is unable to return home.

    What happens when the one who cursed her is the only one who can help her return home? What happens when the locket that she can’t remove exposes him to all of her feelings? What would have happened if Rothbart fell in love with Odette ?
    Inspired by the Florence and the Machine song, Howl with a touch of Blinding and a pinch of Cosmic Love

     

    This will be a long fic, multichapter fic.

    Summary

    Harry James Potter has a secret.

    Her name is actually Hestia Jade Potter.

    Now, after three years of a bald-headed, turban-wearing, Dark-Lord-possessed, homicidal DADA Professor, a fraud and a snake (don't forget a teenage version of aforementioned Dark Lord), a supposedly fratricidal godfather, and a werewolf, Hestia really wants a quiet, normal year where she isn't involved in anything other than classwork.

    She should have known she wouldn't get what she wanted.

    Summary

    Harry and Willow Potter are desperate to return to Hogwarts, determined that this year will be better than last. They have each other, their friends, and none of the professors will be trying to murder them, so what could go wrong? Apparently everything. The mysterious Heir of Slytherin is attacking students and turning them into stone. With only a handful of clues as to who it might be, the twins must rely on each other and their friends to solve the mystery before the worst happens - a student dies and Hogwarts is shut down, forever.

    This is the second book in a total rewrite of the Harry Potter series, imagining the world if Harry Potter had a twin sister! I've already completed Philosopher's Stone, so I highly recommend reading home is behind (the world ahead) before jumping into this.

    Summary

    Second year at Hogwarts was supposed to be easier—familiar faces, familiar halls.
    But for Harry Potter, nothing about this year felt easy.

    Whispers echoed behind the walls, a monster crept beneath the castle, and danger seemed to follow Draco Malfoy wherever he went.

    Every time it did, Harry’s magic reacted—wild, untamed, and far too powerful for a twelve-year-old.

    He started training harder than anyone else, learning every protection spell, every bit of old magic he could get his hands on—anything to make sure Draco wouldn’t get hurt.
    And the stronger his fear of losing him grew, the deeper something inside Harry began to change.

    Every heartbeat, every spark of magic running through him—it all moved for many reasons, but the biggest one, the one that would always matter most, was Draco Malfoy.

    Summary

    It started with a rat.

    A rat scurrying through the garden, eating Aunt Petunia's prized roses. He did it without thinking, bringing the shovel in his hand to cut the creature clean in half.

    Petunia had screamed.
    Dudley threw up.
    Vernon had dragged him inside before beating him black and blue.

    And Harry...Harry discovered something rather unnerving about himself.

    Because this little rat had been powerless against him. For the first time in his short life, Harry Potter had gained power.
    He felt addicted.

    It started with a rat, and ended with No.4 Privet Drive burning to the ground.

    Summary

    Fifty feet of lethal emerald scales. A gaze that kills instantly. Venom that can dissolve solid steel. And a devastating case of split ends.

    ​Tom Riddle is the brilliant, brooding Heir of Slytherin, destined to become the greatest Dark Wizard of all time. But history books conveniently forgot to mention his greatest challenge: the Chamber of Secrets' Basilisk, who acts less like a mythical terror and more like his incredibly high-maintenance, sassy teenage daughter.

    ​As if playing therapist to a fifty-foot diva isn't enough to detail his plans for world domination, Tom is facing a much more dangerous distraction upstairs. A devilishly handsome Ravenclaw has spent years throwing Tom's legendary stoicism into absolute chaos with a single, devastating smirk.

    A comedic peek behind the stone walls of Hogwarts, proving that conquering the wizarding world is easy; handling a fifty-foot drama queen and balancing a secret blooming romance is the real dark magic.

    Summary

    He could have killed her. He had probably wanted to.

    Wet to the bones and shivering like a leaf in the wind, Charlotte looked up at him. She should have been angry. She should have screamed and hexed him. Maybe even pulled him into the water with her.

    Yet all she could focus on in this moment was his smile. His laughter. The way his eyes lit up for the first time since she had met him. He looked alive.
    And she decided she would throw herself into the lake a thousand times more to see him smile like this again.

    Or, in which Charlotte and her twin brother Harry accidentally travel back in time and meet people they were never meant to meet.

    Summary

    ”I expect you to treat this bloody borrow-and-beg like your own child, Potter,” he hissed as they made their way back to the castle. Harry—who was cradling the egg, a tiny light-brown thing with a spattering of dark speckles, carefully in his mittened hands—almost dropped it at the slip of Cockney that he hadn’t heard from Riddle since first year. “If it gets turned into an omelet by a Bludger while you’re playing your imbecilic sport, they will never find your body.”

    ”I’d worry less about me breaking it and more about you keeping it warm,” Harry retorted, holding the egg protectively away from Riddle’s glare—vibes that rancid couldn’t be good for a developing creature. “You couldn’t melt butter in those icy hands of yours, let alone support life.”

    … When Harry came to retrieve the egg that evening, there was a toad tied to the top of it.

    “RIDDLE!”

    Harry and Tom get paired up for the ol’ “take care of an egg together” project for Care of Magical Creatures. Tom tries to put his own Slytherin spin on the assignment, and soon they’re both more invested than they’d anticipated.

    Written for the Purge XL prompt “Daddy”.

    This is a story of family found and lost, of prophecy and past mistakes and promises unkept. This is also a story about crazy students, Christmas presents, bullying, betting pools, and blackmail. A life with so many stupid problems could only belong to Severus.

    Summary

    How was Harry supposed to know that collecting three certain artefacts was a bad idea? Or that Phoenix tears did not neutralise but merely counter acted Basilisk venom?
    When he found out it was already too late. Way too late. In more than just one aspect.

    xXxXxXx

    "I'm sorry, Hadrian, I know you don't want me to do this. But you were never meant to be alone - separated."
    He choked back his cries and screams and pleas to stop, because he knew it was too late.
    His little moon smiled while blood flowed down her body like a river and magic swept around them, the very magic she’s giving her life to.
