    Summary

    There were very few things in Harry Potter's life that he was certain of. There was one absolute certainty though; he'd felt it in his bones for as long as he could remember. He, Harry Potter, was dead. The living people around him might not believe, but the dead sure did. Oh well, it doesn't impact his life much. Besides, it's nice to get help with his schoolwork from his parents.

    Summary

    As the Golden Trio hunts for Horcruxes, Draco Malfoy is on his own quest. His journey for redemption will turn up truths long hidden about the Black brothers and the Marauders.

    [Excerpt]
    His wand lit up. Carved into the lid appeared to be an address, “12 Grimmauld Place, London.” With his free hand he opened the lid. Inside, twinkling in the light, lay a golden snitch. He reached out a finger and tentatively stroked the orb. As he did so, he saw a faint flash of light squiggle across the surface. He picked up the snitch and held it closer. The flash of light appeared again, brighter this time, and in its wake, in delicate, cursive script he saw a word appear on the golden surface. “Regulus.”

    New Blood by

    Fandom: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

    24 Jun 2025

    Summary

    Sorted into Slytherin with the whisper of prophecy around her, Hermione refuses to bow down to the blood prejudices that poison the wizarding world. Carving her own path forward, Hermione chooses to make her own destiny, not as a Muggleborn, a halfblood, or as a pureblood... but as a New Blood, and everything the mysterious term means.

    ---

    New Blood is a canon AU rewrite with Hermione sorted into Slytherin. Featuring: covens, ritual magic, world building, goblin culture, excessive amounts of science and logic and math attempting to be applied to magical concepts to make them make sense, teenage girls growing up and all that entails, a badass Hermione Granger, and far too many words and plotlines

    Summary

    Draco Malfoy is a reclusive academic who works on layered generational magic under the pseudonym Scholar Griseo. When he is contacted by a ‘James Black’ for help with a tricky situation with a magical House, he can’t help but notice the similarities between his potential client and Harry Potter.

    Since he can’t exactly refuse to help the Saviour of the magical world, Draco girds his loins and visits Grimmauld Place, where he ends up involved in what he must presume is one of those classic Harry Potter misadventures. Bonding, sentient Houses, domesticity ahoy!

    A Study of Resonance by

    Summary

    Percy Weasley is not particularly reckless, until he is, once, on the anniversary of his brother's death. For most people, the idea of sending oneself through time to correct one's mistake would remain a fantasy, something to dwell on in the middle of the night, but Percy has always been too capable for his own good.

    Featuring: a reluctant spy, an unlikely friendship between a ghost and a lonely student, a portrait, very few friends, several very lengthy conversations about soul magic, and far too many Horcruxes.

    (Or, an attempt to answer the question, if someone intelligent was sent back through time, armed only with the word 'Horcrux' and a general knowledge of the main timeline––not to mention a keen understanding of the Hogwarts curriculum––could that person logic his way to defeating the Dark Lord? Only time will tell).

    COMPLETE.
