Summary
Harry's life is his work. And through years of working long, exhausting hours in child and family services, Harry's developed some guidelines for himself when it comes to taking children into his home. One, he'll only do it in emergency situations. And two, he won't take them long term.
While he has no official policy on his romantic relationships, they never seem to last very long either, no matter how much he might dream of finding love.
But when eleven-year-old Ben Healy comes blasting his way into Harry's world, his predictable, somewhat lonely life gets turned upside down. Harry can't help but draw parallels between himself and the Muggleborn orphan, and despite his best efforts, he grows attached. Taking on the responsibility of caring for a child is a terrifying prospect, though, and Harry's not sure he's up to the challenge.
Meanwhile, questions arise concerning Ben's mysterious parentage. Is it possible he's not Muggleborn after all? And why is his hair that particular shade of blond?
And why is it so bloody easy for Harry to fall into his old, obsessive habits when it comes to Draco Malfoy?

Summary
Harry is a Horcrux, isn’t he?
Hermione reads over what she has of her essay so far, ignoring the way her hands have started to shake. She circles some sentences here and there that she thinks might be stronger in a different part of the paper.
Don’t be silly. What a strange thought to have.
Anyway.
Anyway.
During 6th year, Hermione has a realization that Harry is a Horcrux while doing some homework in the library. Things spiral out from there.

Summary
Harry finds a better life with the basilisk, but that doesn't mean it's easy. From inter-being feuds, to bloody prophecies, to elven unrest, Harry is in the eye of a hurricane that will change the wizarding world forever.
Involving thestrals, merfolk, house elves, centaurs, acromantulae, and various other friends, denizens, and allies.
This series is: Queer in a multitude of ways. Morally complex. A massively canon-divergent AU. Filled with oc's and non-oc's. A story about relationships, love, trust, friendship, healing ... and revolution.
There are seven novel-length fics, plus a prologue (to leap and love the fall) and two longer stories (with courage unyielding and the gentle sunlight). The short story collection to journey on contains shorter stories set within the main timeline. All are posted in the correct reading order.

Summary
Summer of 1978. There is a lycanthropy epidemic in Britain. The Dark Lord is gathering forces. The Order of the Phoenix is preparing for fighting. Sirius Black has no idea about any of that – he just finished Hogwarts with his two best friends, the future is bright and endless before him, and he is just looking for a bit of fun before adult life is going to start – but somehow, he ends up right in the middle of a secret war. All because of a handsome stranger that, for some reason, saves his life.

Summary
When Sirius Black is unmasked as a spy, it seems that nearly everyone in Bletchley Park knew all along that something wasn't right about him. But Lily Evans thinks otherwise. She knows that if Black really was a spy, he'd have done it properly, and would have never been caught. Remus Lupin doesn't believe Sirius is a spy either. According to the landlady, she found the stolen ciphers in his room between the pages of a magazine filled with photos of half-naked women. And Remus knows that such a magazine would hold no interest for Sirius. It's not much to go on, but both Remus and Lily are determined to get to the truth. A man's life depends upon it.

Summary
At the end of first year, Harry pocketed the Philosopher's Stone- in a secret pocket that everyone else missed.
Now, two years later, Harry is in his third year, his friends are having the time of their lives in Hogsmeade, there's an escaped mass murderer running around, and Harry is going stir-crazy. Fortunately, the twins have a solution! Although- they're going to need something in return, and it needs to be good.
Good thing Harry kept that Stone, huh?
And then things go completely bat-shit crazy.
(featuring the Marauders vs 1993, an exhausted Professor Lupin, a bewildered Harry Potter, and an opportunistic Hermione Granger)

Summary
Harry’s decrepit House Elf is dying. If things were normal, that would be a sad but ultimately natural thing. However, he’s Harry Potter and — of bloody course — nothing can ever be normal. Why shouldn’t Kreacher’s death have to involve Draco Malfoy, who Harry hasn’t seen in two years, and Regulus Black, who Harry has thought was dead for over twenty years?

Summary
When Auror Potter is anonymously cursed with silence by being forced to hide his own voice inside his mind, there's unfortunately only one person in the country with the qualifications to fix it: Certified and Licensed Healer Legilimens, Draco Malfoy, specialist in Mind Curses and Afflictions. It's obviously a terrible idea, a disaster waiting to happen, but Draco's never been able to back down from a challenge... especially from Potter.
Features fuzzy cartoon slippers, devious house elves, 90s music, and lots—LOTS—of memories. Ron is annoyingly hot, Hermione sees right through you, Harry is a powerful idiot, and Draco is a reclusive masochist that would buy an entire city if it would make a kid happy. (And Pansy is "5'2, I wanna dance with you, and I'm sophisticated fun.")
