Summary
He doesn’t know why he’s here, his dark robes a stark contrast to the casual t-shirts and jeans of the place. Standing at the front entrance, Severus Snape debated whether or not to go inside.
How dare he? How dare he??
For he had just seen Sirius Black walk into the muggle bar, not four days after Lily and James Potter’s death.

Summary
We all know how this family ended: with two convicted criminals now dead and most of its Death Eater members likely having perished in the war, seemingly bringing an end to the bloodline.
But is that truly the whole story?
As it turns out, dear reader, Harry Potter could no longer bear to keep this monumental secret to himself.
The Boy Who Lived—though hardly a boy anymore—has spoken. He wishes to share “the truth” about his godfather, Sirius Black.
Prepare yourself and sit down firmly, because attached to the branch belonging to Sirius Black was none other than Mr. Snape himself.Apparently, “Severus Black” liked to keep family matters strictly within the family. Who would have imagined such things from the stern Potions Master?
Could this be the true reason behind the tragic downfall of the Blacks?
Or was this family already doomed the moment they decided that inbreeding was a splendid idea?

Summary
She was doomed to become the Ugly Dark Witch of her childhood tales, no matter what she did. And that was the role she would grow into — damn her heart, damn her dreams of light and sunshine and kind, handsome princes.
Hunger still clawed an endless pit in her belly, and nothing — no one — could ever fill it, placate the beast, satiate her to the marrow.
She was to be always hollow, always a ghost in her own skin, a dream-like mirage of a girl.He couldn't run away. On that, he and his family agreed. He had simply to eradicate the putrescence until he was brand-new, and clean, and more alive than any of those walking, decaying Black corpses would ever be.
He fought death with a thunderous excess of life, until he was gorged with it, until he could drown inside its pulsing, living core.This is a tale where Beast and Beauty are one and the same - where Cinderella plays the role of the Wicked Witch and the handsome, rebellious Prince Charming does not save her. A story of mutual haunting, of an obsession spanning two decades, of transformation - and, perhaps, of love, too.

Summary
Black had been nearly skeletal when he came out of Azkaban, but he’d put on muscle again.
He prowled, and he loomed, and whatever earthy animal quality he’d had as a younger man had transmuted into something feral and predatory, during his twelve years of imprisonment.
Severus had his wand. He swallowed hard. His wand. Magic. His only defense, because Black outweighed him by at least three stone. But magic was more than enough. Severus had never needed physical prowess. His magical strength, and the keenness of his mind, gave him the advantage.
Except when it didn’t.

Summary
"When she was just a little girl, her father had promised her that she would marry Rhaegar. "Never speak of it, child," he had told her, smiling his secret smile that only Cersei ever saw. "Not until His Grace agrees to the betrothal. It must remain our secret for now." And so it had, though once she had drawn a picture of herself flying behind Rhaegar on a dragon, her arms wrapped tight about his chest."
Cersei travels to Dragonstone to claim what is hers.
