Summary
Harry just wants to have a quiet life and get along with everyone. He wants to be normal, and accepted. Being “normal” for the Dursleys yielded great results in improving his standard of living, and as he heads off to Hogwarts he still retains that impulse to keep his head down and blend in. Of course, life isn’t as simple as that, and Harry is a magnet for trouble. And what does "normal" really mean, anyway? The pure-bloods in his group of friends think he should learn more about their culture and religion if he wants to fit in.

Summary
The Rigel Black Chronicles is the tale of a heroic protagonist focused on her studies and world betterment as she encounters discrimination as a halfblood witch in a Wizarding Britain ruled by the politician Tom Riddle, a trail-blazer for British halfbloods everywhere and a shining exemplar of equality, who rises above every setback she encounters, makes steadfast friends in unexpected places everywhere she goes, and, presumably, will go on to triumphantly dismantle a system of systemic oppression and discrimination.
It is also a story in which loving your oppressors is the noble thing to do, the right course of action to take, the brave choice. It is a story in which friendships overcome all barriers, even among the most bigoted and privileged with the most to gain from institutional discrimination. It is set in a world where the onus of righting discrimination falls on the oppressed, where they are the one who allow hate to befall them, where they are the ones who have to be brave and befriend those who spit slurs at them, where it is the oppressors who "[do] nothing without a reason."

Summary
People are either afraid of or fascinated by things they do not know. Michael is both scared and fascinated by the notebook he found at Kings Cross. The thing writes back. He'd watched enough horror movies to know he should bury this book in a forest and hope no one ever finds it. But messing with Tom is just so much fun. What's the worst that could happen, anyway?

Summary
Harry has some weird words on his left wrist. That must be one of those strange things that Aunt Petunia hates so much. But it's okay! He likes them.
Then, it all turns even weirder. Hogwarts, magic, a Headmaster and a Dark Lord await Harry - he would prefer if they all just left him alone, thank you very much.
But when has it ever mattered what Harry wants?
