    Summary

    “The battle is won. You have lost half of your fighters. My Death Eaters outnumber you, and the Boy Who Lived is finished. There must be no more war. Anyone who continues to resist, man, woman, or child, will be slaughtered, as will every member of their family. Come out of the castle now, kneel before me, and you shall be spared. Your parents and children, your brothers and sisters will live and be forgiven, and you will join me in the new world we shall build together.”

    Keep My Candle Burning AU continuation where Voldemort wins the Battle of Hogwarts.

    Summary

    An intensely canon-compliant humanized Voldemort's POV of his life throughout both wars, with flashbacks to his younger years. Centered around his relationship with Bellatrix, and his journey with love, family, and grief, but very all-encompassing and inclusive of everything and everyone I could think of.

    The Voldemort we see in words—from Dumbledore, from Harry—is not the Voldemort we see in actions. How do we bridge the gap between the Voldemort that Dumbledore claims has no idea what friendship is and the Voldemort that calls his Death Eaters his family when they’re not even present? gives Bella a piece of his soul? drags her by hand out of the Ministry? is clearly liked as a person at least somewhat by his followers? has at least one person willing to physically care for him for nearly a year? has multiple people willing to go to Azkaban for life for the chance to have him back?

    Voldemort is not the person Dumbledore thinks (or claims to think, so that Harry will kill himself) he is at all, but is a human being with human emotions and human thoughts and human relationships, however unique.

    Summary

    File this under; "okay, hear me out..."

     

    "What could you possibly want to meet with me about, outside of attempting to kill me."

     

    What Tobirama says next chills him to the bone.

     

    "I have one of your clansmen," he says lowly. "He's got quite the tale to tell you."

     

    Izuna doesn't know what to make of a clansman from the future who, despite everything, still wants them to build the village.

    Summary

    Smart!Harry escapes through the veil and suddenly Westeros has a new wizard in town. Only Harry could turn his escape into a much-needed vacation, a growing trade empire and a small kingdom of his own. Of course, Harry has magic, a saving people thing, and knowledge of the modern world, so it’s inevitable he’ll shake things up. Dobby's enthusiasm is just as chaotic as you’d imagine, and Sirius is just happy to have his Godson back.
