Summary
It begins and ends, much like in another life, for love of a woman.
Voldemort never faced a choice between two prophesied boys, because one of them was born a girl. A girl, he believed, wasn’t much of a threat to a wizard like him.*
*this decision aged poorly, in entirely new ways.
Or: Ivy Potter grew up surrounded by love, with a predilection for chaos instead of heroism, while Neville Longbottom had a raw scar stretched across his forehead gifting him a serpent's tongue. And just like that, a new fate, an old fate, is sealed.

Bookmarker's Notes
-Chap 21
-This is a riot
-Very in line with canon (magic system, political scene, relations between characters etc)
-Extremely well written and executed
-So many fun vignettes
-Orion (OC not insert) is very charismatic and well written
-Can be serious
-Minor politics
-Neville is relevant to plot and NOT *extremely* OOC. No random jerks in personality. Just a few tweaks due to different childhood
-God-send find. Read it.
