    Summary

    1987 had been plagued with strange and inexplicable events, all of which had rocked the Wizarding World over and over.

    Severus Snape had always been excellent at recognizing patterns. It was part of what had made him such a successful spy during the war, and likely the only reason he was still alive. That is exactly how he knew something catastrophic was coming for him specifically, he just didn’t know what.

    There was no way he could have anticipated his catastrophic event being the arrival of a new master, a curly-headed witch covered in scars and surrounded by secrets, whom he would serve endlessly.

    Summary

    Heather Potter grows up loved and grounded by her grandparents. When Voldemort’s shadow returns, she must master a fierce, dangerous magic waking inside her, while facing doubt, grief, and the terrifying truth that survival always demands a price.
    _
    Heather’s eyes kept straying. On the curve of his jaw. On the way his shoulders shifted under his shirt. A warm, stupid flutter started under her ribs. She dragged her gaze back to her book, biting the inside of her cheek.
    “Something wrong with your reading?” His voice was warm, distracted, still half in the world of Gillyweed and bubotubers.
    She cleared her throat. “Just… not sinking in.”
    Neville glanced at her then, brief but enough for her stomach to flip. “Want me to quiz you?”
    She almost laughed. If he knew what was actually on her mind, he wouldn’t be offering to make her think harder. Or maybe he would. “Maybe in a bit.”
    He smiled faintly and went back to his notes.
    Heather watched him for another heartbeat. He kept writing, completely at ease, and she realized with a sudden rush of affection and wanting that she could sit here all night, pretending to read, just to keep him close like this.

    Summary

    In the sterile, cookie-cutter world of Privet Drive, Harry Potter is a "freak" whose only refuge is the dirt beneath his fingernails.

    While his relatives, the Dursleys, view his forced gardening as a menial chore, Harry finds a rare, rhythmic peace in the soil. This quiet obsession leads him to the school library, where he bypasses children’s stories for heavy tomes on Botany, Eastern Medicine, and Toxicology. He begins to see the world not as a suburban wasteland, but as a vast, living pharmacy of potential cures and lethal secrets.

    Or where Harry learns to harness and develop his potential earlier, with the assistance of an old lady who has just moved into the peaceful neighborhood of Privet Drive.
