    Summary

    Theodore Nott did not believe the hype about Harry Potter.
    And then Potter summoned a corporeal stag the size of his trust issues.

    Now the stag won’t leave, Potter won’t stop rambling, and Theo might be developing a completely manageable, definitely-not-deranged fascination.

    It’s fine.
    He’s fine.
    Everyone is lying.

    Summary

    "Death"

    "You are finally ready, I see"

    "Ready for what?"

    "To live"

    "Wasn't I doing just that?"

    "Were you?"

    Harry had no answer.
    (Perhaps that was answer enough. Or perhaps Death just enjoyed being cryptic. Hard to say.)

    {Time-travel AU. Watch as Harry is yeeted into the past, bullies the wizarding world into making sense, and absolutely refuses to follow Dumbledore’s script. Features excessive worldbuilding (someone's gotta fix this mess), slow-burn romance (because trauma-bonding is hot), and a protagonist who treats destiny like Terms & Conditions—unread and promptly ignored. Happy ending optional, sarcasm mandatory.}

    Summary

    Harry accidentally time travels to 1979, where he gets captured by the Order of the Phoenix. There's a catch — from the moment they set eyes on Harry's Dark Mark, they despise him.

    *

    “Finally awake… Death Eater?” the man spat spitefully.

    Harry never would have imagined meeting like this.

    The words “I can explain” were stuck on the tip of his tongue. But all that came out was a soft, strangled, “Sirius.”

    Summary

    "Well, here we are." Sirius pushed open the door with a grand sweep of his arms. “Home sweet Hell.”

    Sirius had bad memories of Grimmauld Place, tainted by his own less than stellar family. But for Harry, whose summers had previously involved being locked away either in a cupboard or Dudley's second room--with bars on the windows, no less--it was perfect.

    ---
    With Sirius free from Azkaban and taking up his role as Harry's guardian, Voldemort pursuing a political path to power rather than bloodshed, and a defense teacher that isn't actively trying to kill him for once, Harry has high hopes for his third year at Hogwarts. It'll be nice to sit back and be a kid for once.

    Only Harry's life is never so simple, and he soon finds himself facing a myriad of new challenges: school bullies and new family dynamics, horcruxes all but falling into his lap, his deja-vu brain giving him mixed signals, and hidden murmurs arising from old Death Eater circles that may pose a threat to him regardless of his tentative alliance with Voldemort. Things seem destined to never be easy, but if there's one thing Harry knows by now, it's that he won't have to do it alone.

    Summary

    When a Voldemort in his thirties encounters a time-travelling, seventeen-year-old Harry Potter, he makes a dangerous—and hilarious—assumption. He assumes that Harry is his son. And his son, of course, deserves the very best.

    A confused Harry plays along for the sake of self-preservation, but living with his “father” is proving to be intolerable in more ways than one.

    “You are mine,” Voldemort said gently, and smiled when Harry flinched. So the boy did know Voldemort, after all. He knew Voldemort was to be feared. “I will look after you, my own.”

    “I don’t belong to you,” Harry spat, despite his fear. Oh, what a delight he was! He was no cowering, simpering sycophant, like Voldemort’s other followers; no, this child had a spine of steel. Not many could stand before Voldemort without quailing.

    “You are my son,” Voldemort declared. “Of course you belong to me. Your every cell, your every fibre, your every heartbeat. You are mine in flesh and blood and soul. You are mine in magic. And you will not deny me.”

    Now with Chinese, Korean, Russian and Portugese translations, and featuring art by Mona and Hypnodisc!

    Summary

    Astor loved Dexter. But as she grew older, she started to notice things.

    Cracks in his image that she felt alone in seeing. Sure, he worked for the police department, but were those extended work hours really necessary? The longer he was in their lives, the later he came home. It still happened even after Harrison was born. Something was consuming him, something he viewed as more important than his family—her family—and she never got the chance to discover what it was.

    Astor ruminates on the curious actions of her stepfather, especially after seeing a familiar face in a newspaper about certain events in New York.
