    Summary

    Harry and Hermione are out of options. Voldemort has won, and they are no closer to finding his key to immortality. Feeling lost, Harry's only solace is the re-emergence of his soulmark and the man showing up in his dreams. Harry could never bring another person into his dangerous life, let alone his soulmate, but the man in his dreams will stop at nothing to bring them together.

    Summary

    “And my intended?” His lips pressed into a cold smile.

    The catalyst of his failure and transformation; exponentially more important and far-reaching than mere shifts in status of his followers was, as always, Harry Potter.

    The boy of prophecy, his fated vanquisher, the-boy-who-lived to be his Horcrux.

    Or

    At the Battle for the Department of Mysteries Voldemort discovers the unintended Horcrux slumbering inside of Harry Potter, hurling his carefully laid plans into disarray. But like a snake shedding its skin, Voldemort reinvents himself again.

    A scant few months later, peace treaty negotiations culminate in a public ceremony binding his human Horcrux to him fourfold; by prophecy and blood and soul and magic.

    It is when Harry’s gaze remains hollow as their blood soaks the delicate flowers of their handfasting chords and the hungry earth yawns below, Voldemort realizes he may have claimed a poisoned prize.

    Summary

    Harry takes a tentative step forward, bracing himself against a lamppost. His eyes sweep over the immaculate rows of houses, the stillness, the eerie silence of a neighbourhood that has always prided itself on perfection. It doesn’t take long for him to find the only thing worth coming back here for: a tiny thing crouched amongst the flowerbeds in the back garden of Number Four.

    Green eyes far too large for his gaunt little face, unruly black hair sticking out in every direction, like something had nested in it and then given up halfway. Dirt smudged across tan skin. Glasses taped at the bridge and slipping down his nose with every breath. The utter embodiment of guilelessness.

    Ten-year-old Harry Potter.

    Harry watches in silence as the boy gently pats fresh soil over a tulip bulb with the care of someone desperate to get it right.

    He remembers this day too well.

    ‧₊˚❀༉‧₊

    In which Death refuses to let its master die with so many lingering regrets, and Harry Potter learns to love himself again… or at least, a version of himself.

    Summary

    "Dear Mr. Potter,
    We are pleased to invite you back to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry this coming September..."

    Harry’s picked up more than one bad habit to cope with the aftermath of the war. Meanwhile, the students in his year are offered the chance to return to Hogwarts for a one-year apprenticeship.
    The catch?
    Apprenticeships are not chosen by the student, but by their natural magical aptitude. What happens when Harry is assigned to Severus Snape?

     

    OR:
    Post war, Harry is losing his mind. Somehow, Snape is the only one that can help him find it again.
