    Summary

    When he is 11 years old, Harry James Potter (and yes, he is the BOY who lived, thank you very much) gets dragged into a world he's waited years to join. Now, in another universe, another timeline, Harry would've been born a boy and had two best friends and would be sorted into Gryffindor. This is not that timeline.

    In this timeline, Harry knows he is a wizard years before his letter ever comes (the letter that somehow knows his name, and not the one on his birth certificate) and his not going to be manipulated by a meddlesome old goat and two annoying kids that seem convinced that Harry is their friend. In this timeline, Harry does not let himself be used. In this timeline, he fights. And oh, what a fight it is.

    Summary

    They Shook Hands tells the overplot of the Harry Potter series using the Slytherin characters. I couldn’t find the sort of story I wanted to read. I still haven’t found anything that comes close. Canon events still happen, just not in the same manner. I do not introduce wildly out of place elements to the plot. I don’t suddenly send the plot spiralling off into strange new directions. There will be no new systems of magic, mages, elementals, Lordships, harems, or Tolkien elves. I have tried to write a realistic, canonesque story. My characters are not Junior Death Eaters. Every canon incident of their bad behaviour is present here. They are bullies. They are mean. But they’re not evil.
    The functional POD is that the Malfoys have a child before Draco, and their development is slightly different. By the time Draco meets Harry, he's realised the value of friendship and is more open of a person. The POD for Harry is when he meets Draco in Madam Malkin's. In TSH, unlike canon, he introduces himself to Draco. They shake hands and decide to be friends. The story is distinct from other Harry-in-Slytherin fics because it doesn't turn on Harry being sorted to Slytherin but rather on Harry becoming friends with Draco.

    Summary

    Living with Lan Zhan really is the best thing that could have happened to Wei Ying – the man cooks, cleans, and is always a genuine pleasure to be around. He’s so glad that his friend managed to get him to stop being such a stubborn dumbass (which Wei Ying knows he can be, occasionally) and just move into Lan Zhan’s spare bedroom.

    The only thing Wei Ying could even try to find fault with his roommate for would be that, well, he tends to leave the shared bathroom door open whenever he needs to piss. Not that it’s that big of a deal! The man’s probably just used to living alone, and it’s not like Wei Ying hadn’t forgotten and done the same himself back when he used to live with Jiang Cheng. Honestly, it’s such a small thing that it’s not even worth bringing up.

    Lan Zhan is perfect, after all, and it wouldn’t do to embarrass him over something so inconsequential.

     

    AKA Wei Ying and Lan Zhan figure out how to be roommates. As the two learn to get used to living with each other, habits are formed, for better or for worse.
