    Summary

    It started a week into February, when Tom Riddle turned to his friend Lucius in the library and said, "I've just had the best idea."

    Lucius forced himself not to cringe. There was no way in hell the next words out of Tom's mouth would be a good idea.

    "I'm going to send Potter a Valentine."

    And there it was.

    When Slytherin Head Boy Tom Riddle decides to send a Valentine to his rival Harry, he means it as a prank - and expects the Gryffindor to fling it away and set it on fire.

    He doesn't expect Harry to blush from his head to his toes. And he really doesn't expect the thought that he's cute to cross his mind right after.

    Interesting interesting, starting off w everyone thinking that Harry is a squib 👁️ (what is he hiding for?) And him having started some cult of sort? (which im super proud of him for, I'm into it)

    Summary

    The moment the Goblet of Fire spat Harry's name out, it was second year all over again. Shunned by most of Hogwarts and made out to be an attention-seeking liar, he feels more isolated than ever.

    In the vacuum void of the heart-wrenching realisation that he'll never fit in, his new defense professor and that man's mysterious mentor manage to fill a hole in Harry's soul he hadn't known existed. And just like that, he finds himself... slipping.

    Summary

    Harry does not give up the Horcrux when he dies.

    Can goodness be a hero’s tragic flaw?

    Moved by compassion, he embraces it instead.

    Can forgiveness be a gift unconsciously granted?

    What follows next, he could not predict. He’s not sure he ever really had a choice in the matter.

    Can love exist, even flourish, in a heart that does not give its consent?

    The world Harry wakes up to is not like the one he remembers.

    This is a horror story.

    And his captor is neither the same as he was, nor as different as he would like.

    This is a love story.

    (aurora polaris by AGlassRoseNeverFades)

    Plot/Theme:

    “There’s no god here, Harry. There is only you and me.” (Ch.32)

    fucked up, and so fucking delicious 🤤🤤🤤🤤 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA EVIL ENTITY! SO WHAT?? WIFE THAT MAN UP 🗣️ (Harry's inner voice, probably)
    Hello?? I am declaring this a CLASSIC! ahh!! This was so well written, and I fell in love more and more with the characters as the chapters went on. I especially love Tom in this fic, he is so unapologetically himself, while also so fucking sweet, cruel, smitten, evil and WHIPPED! A Tomarry reenactment of Beauty And The Beast with a slight Bluebeard Folklore fusion >.< ahhh so exciting!!

    I’ve always known you.
    You’re mine. You’ve been mine since before I was born.
    I’ve been yours since longer than I’ve been alive.

    reading this chapter.. with Rachmaninoff playing in the background.. i am in tears, author!!! i am in so love with this fic that i dont know what to do with myself, happy eid!!!

    the ending ! bravo bravo bravo! and they were meant to be, yout honour!! :) forever and always.
    a love story or a horror? why not both? whats so bad about loving something (or someone) you find horrifying??

    tldr: there’s a monster living under Harry’s bed. Every night, it reaches from the dark with claws meant to drag him under. But one night, instead of screaming or pulling away, Harry takes the monster’s hand.
    and the monster, who has only ever known fear, doesn’t know what to do with the kindness.

    (or: fucked up (who thinks the monster is absolutely adorable) vs, even more fucked up (who displays his grotesque nature in reckless abandon))

    Summary

    Harry walks to the Forbidden Forest with a newfound sense of self-preservation, a skill he knew once in early childhood but had somehow lost upon arriving in the magical world. But it was back with a vengeance, and Harry would not relinquish it again. He would survive, dammit, if it was the last thing he did. AU from “The Prince’s Tale” on. Eventual Harrymort.

    (Fear Makes Monsters of Us All by orphan_account)

    this fic is ♥️♥️😭

    loved the character development of Voldemort
    this went from master/slave relationship to voldie pampering tf out of Harry (and him being oblivious to it lol)

    Harry turned around and looked sadly up at him. “And if he doesn’t?”

    Tom bent down and brushed Harry’s nose with the flat of his own. “He will.”

    “I’m scared,” Harry admitted.

    “I know,” Tom said. “But if Harry Potter was brave enough to face Lord Voldemort in the Forbidden Forest, then he’s certainly brave enough to face Ronald Weasley in St Mungo’s.”

    DUNNO WHY THIS MADE MY HEART GO ALL 😭♥️✨💫 wjxiwn so fucking adorable
