Summary
In another life, Albus Potter might have been great. Stopped Voldemort's daughter, damaged and then healed timelines. He might have lived up to his name.
In this one, he's smaller. Plainer. A boy with a monotonous job and a distant family and an emotional cavern where his dad used to be.
He doesn't know, when they meet, that Tom Riddle has something to teach him about other lives.

Summary
Lily straightens from over the crib. Turns. Screams. There’s a man in the doorway. Her wand's in her dressing gown, which is draped across her dresser mirror. Stupid. Foolish. Careless, and now Harry’s going to die for it.
Except the man doesn’t move. He stands there, shaggy hair, round glasses, staring. There’s no wand in his hand, either. No mask. Death Eaters wear masks.
“Hi, Mum,” he says, his voice thick.
***
Harry returns to the past. All his second chances glow.

Summary
The lens is open. Moonlight shines a perfect spotlight onto centre stage. The motes dancing in the beam are from the ashes of a burned theatre, not his daughter. Still, the sight seizes Louis by the heart, squeezes him immobile.
Lestat is behind him, and then Lestat is before him, approaching the stage with a steady click of heeled boots. If he’s cowed by the events that transpired here, he doesn’t show it. He vaults neatly up onto its wooden surface and paces right through the spot where Claudia and Madeleine stood. Moonlight and ash and all of Louis’ love swirl around him.
**
Louis and Lestat return to the theatre.
