Summary
“Mr. Evans,” Ollivander said, smiling wider. “Any relation to Lily Evans?”
“Who?”Harry Evans was almost like any other boy growing up in Cokeworth. He lived alone in a house nobody else could see, he stole food from the supermarket and never got caught, and he had a little brother who had been hidden after the night their mother was killed. Harry was a secret, and he promised not to tell.
A letter in an empty vault, a small boy with broken glasses, a portrait of a scowling girl. As Harry begins unraveling his own past, the threat against his brother grows.
How long will his secrets keep when Harry is the only one standing between his brother and the world?
A story about family, friendship, growing up, and, of course, the most powerful magic of all

Summary
Ryland Grace woke with a start, opening his eyes before quickly squeezing them shut against the bright light of the room. His head was tipped back, the top pressing back into a soft surface. Turning his face to the side, away from the direct view of the light, he gave a few cautious blinks until his eyes adjusted. After a moment, he carefully looked up, rolling his head into an upright position to look around the room.
It featured two rows of reclined leather chairs, the back row elevated slightly above the front. The right arm of each chair featured a few buttons on a small keypad. In each seat there was a member of the Project Hail Mary research and mission team. Most of the members were blinking awake like he was, although some were still unconscious.or
The members of the Project Hail Mary find themselves in a cinema, forced to watch a film which supposedly shows their future. Their captor tells them this will allow them to save Earth (and Erid) but how?or
A watching the film fic because every fandom needs one.- Language:

Summary
Eva Stratt has never been a woman who hesitates.
She’s made countless decisions after decisions throughout her life, often regardless of the consequences that may result. She’s not an idiot. She’s well aware that there will be consequences, and she’s equally sure that the consequences will be of little concern. The end justifies the means — her actions will be judged, but at least they will have happened.
But here, alone in a Russian conference room, for once in her life Eva Stratt does not know what to do.
OR; The beetles make it home.

Message in a Beetle by ConalltheLibrarian

Summary
It’s been nearly 27 years since Eva Stratt forced Ryland Grace to board the Hail Mary and sent him off to his death for the greater good of mankind. Meanwhile, Eva and the Project Hail Mary team have been fighting a losing battle against the cooling sun—and their own demons—trying to make sure there were still people to be saved by the time the crew could send a solution home. Right on schedule, the beetles are returning to Earth, hopefully with the answer to saving the world. But Eva has something else to worry about; there’s every possibility Ryland Grace’s last words would be coming home, and all the time in the world couldn’t make her ready to face the consequences of her actions, or what will happen when her colleagues find out what she did to their friend.
It was time to find out if it was worth it for her to sacrifice Grace, and her soul, to save humanity. And to find out if she was ready to face him after all these years…- Language:

Summary
He tuned out the squabbling men across from them to Fucile, leaning in to hear him better. “What’s up, bro?”
“It’s nice to see you smile, a real one I mean, not that crap you put on for the media.” Fucile teased.
He laughed nervously. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, man. I laugh all the time.” He finished off his statement with a patented Ken Sato laugh and a sip of his drink. It didn’t taste as good anymore.
Fucile just hummed in response. He looked amused, leaning away from Kenji so he could see him better. He had a stupid, lazy smirk on his face as he dragged his eyes up and down Kenji’s frame.
Kenji felt distinctly like prey about to be eaten by a predator.
Not taking his eyes off of Kenji, Fucile grabbed his glass off of the table, downing the rest of it in one go. Still smirking, he finally turned away.
“Fine, keep your secrets then, Ken Sato.”
Or: how Kenji makes himself a family, bonds with his daughter, and learns that maybe, just maybe, everything will be okay

Summary
They can hear the soft piano melody even before they enter the greenhouse. It steals their breath away, just a little; a feeling of deep, unexpected familiarity. Rover's been feeling a lot that, lately. The Black Shores are like the place of a missing tooth, always reminding them of something they can't remember. Just like Shorekeeper.

Summary
Sirius Black never expected to find Draco Malfoy on his doorstep, claiming that Harry Potter was missing.
Harry Potter is fine. He says so himself.
Draco Malfoy does not. Sirius Black eventually understands why.
A quiet psychological horror about love, routine, and how easily harm can look like care.

Summary
As part of his penance program after the war, Draco returns to Hogwarts to retake seventh year. The Ministry is not at all kind (why would they be), his professors seem to both loathe and pity him, he's anxious all the time, and Harry Potter will always be a thorn in his side. Even if Potter is pretty okay at tutoring. Honestly, Harry is just trying to not make things worse.
A story of PTSD, recovery, and redemption, with a touch of dark magic and curses.

Summary
Harry balled his hands at his sides. He wished he hadn’t come. He wished he’d never listened to O’Cannon’s show. But more than anything, he wished Draco wasn’t six feet away, treating Harry like an older version of himself, one that Draco had never cared for. Never loved.
“But you didn’t know that’s what would happen, Malfoy. And if something had happened to Teddy, where would you be? Back in Paris avoiding the fallout, as usual.”

Summary
AU. Harry accidentally Apparates to an empty Grimmauld Place when he’s nine instead of to the top of the school roof when he escapes Dudley’s gang. The house is empty except for portraits and sometimes a speaking wooden face, and Harry has to kill his own food, and there’s something nasty in the cellars, and some of the portraits are mad. But this is still a vast improvement over the Dursleys.

Summary
AU. Harry knows there are both advantages and disadvantages to being the twin of Ian Potter, the Boy-Who-Lived, who defeated Voldemort three years ago. Harry never anticipated that one of the disadvantages would be Lucius Malfoy offering him a formal courtship—and his brother insisting he has to accept, to spy on Malfoy and see what he’s been up to since the war ended.

Summary
Harry has always known he was a Squib child left with his aunt and uncle, and that his parents are still alive, and that he won’t receive a Hogwarts letter. What only he seems to know was that he has magic; it’s just wild and does what it wants and refuses to show up for most people who have tried to investigate it. Harry leaves the Dursleys’ house at eleven to go find a way to tame his magic, while his twin, David Potter, the Boy-Who-Lived, starts his first year at Hogwarts.

Summary
Ten years after Conan, things that Shinichi thought were dead refuse to stay buried.
---
Shinichi had promised not to keep people in the dark when they’re in the room. And it was impossible to deny that Kogoro was in the room for whatever this was.
He hesitated. It had been ten years but the habit of keeping quiet hadn’t faded. But-
He took a deep breath. “The scene is-” he stopped, voice cracking a bit. Cleared his throat and tried again, leveling his voice out into the neutral tone he used when describing a particularly gruesome set of facts. “The crime scene is the same as mine would have been.” Kogoro’s face twisted, eyebrows winging up into his hairline. Shinichi kept going. “If the poison had killed me. Same clothes, same pose, same head wound,” he tapped the barely perceptible scar on his forehead where the pipe had made contact all those years ago “same everything. It’s identical.”

Summary
Ken Sato tried to get his act together. He started being more friendly with his teammates, more respectful towards Coach. But Coach expects a lot more out of a reformed Ken---he's a lot more suspicious when Sato shows up to practice late, looking bruised and beaten. One thing leads to another, and now Ken is expected to bring a non-existent girlfriend to a team dinner. He doesn't want to, but he contacts someone he thinks he can trust: Ami Wakita. But nothing is ever simple with an insatiable journalist. Events start spiraling out of control with a mixture of kaiju battles, hospitalizations, and lies.
“You, the famous Ken Sato, need a date for a team dinner?”
Sato buried his face in his hands. Somehow this was worse than he imagined.

#20: Of all the potential dangers, Shinichi had never considered… this.
#21: Some things are further than they appear.
#22: You're only calling on a whim anyway, and even if you haven't miscalculated the time difference (you know you haven't) the professor is probably still busy at the conference.
