Summary
In a world ruled by Slytherin’s heir one should know how to lie, deceive should be second nature, scheming should feel like dreaming.
To the house clad in silver and green it is second nature, it does feel like dreaming. Either it is pure luck that these past six years nobody has figured out how horrible of a Liar Harry is, or they just never deemed him worth the effort. All he is in the end, is some halfblood son of dead order members – and therefore irrelevant within this society.
His lucky streak isn’t meant to last, he is noticed, chance makes him a player in a game of truths and fate decides to throw him two soulmates who’d never ever accept him.
A shitty hand, that’s what Harry Potter has been dealt.

Summary
Harry Potter is adopted by a retired chemistry professor causing him to become an accidental potions prodigy. Navigating the world of wizards with a strong home base allows Harry to ask important questions like, 'why don't we learn math?' and 'why hasn't everyone read Hogwarts: A History?' and most importantly, 'Why does everyone treat squibs so terribly?"

Summary
“Potter, don't tell me you never experimented in Gryffindor? “ Zabini asked and why did it sound so suggestive?
Harry felt lost. “Experimented how? Like with potions?“
The snort that followed caused him to glare at the blonde bastard who was lying on his side, head resting in his palm as he observed him condescendingly.
“Please Blaise, Saint Potter probably never even touched himself let alone one of the Gryffindorks,” Malfoy chuckled darkly and Harry wanted to punch him in the face.
However, the statement and insinuation finally sank in and he felt himself going red. It didn't help that Zabini's mouth curved into a wolfish grin as the boy sat on Malfoy's bed opposite him and leaned forward.
“That's fine, Potter. It is well known that snakes have the most skillful tongues out of all the houses and we like to practice and improve ourselves. Now that you are one of us, surely you do not want to taint our reputation? “

Summary
“You can use a spear as a walking stick, but that will not change its nature” - The Song of Achilles
Hadrian is a spear- there's no denying it. He is sharp, he hurts those around him (near or far, it doesn’t much matter) and most of all, he stabs the feet that mistake him for a stick.
Against the clock, Hadrian must learn the difference between living and surviving, love and hate; sacrifice and surrender.
How does a boy reared for war and forged in hate learn to love?

Summary
Children’s hair sometimes changes color as you grow. When he’s young enough for it not to be unusual, but old enough to know he’ll get in trouble for doing something ‘freakish’ again, Harry's hair goes from his father's dark locks to his mother's bright, most-likely-magical red hair.
It changes everything about who he identifies with, who he wants to grow up to be, and who he thinks he is. Instead of having James Potter as his idol, Lily turns out to be a much better influence.
So instead of seeing a scruffy, most-likely-muggleborn boy standing beside him in Madam Malkin's before their first year, Draco only has eyes for the scarlet-haired, green-eyed creature who just walked into his life. Not that Harry will ever notice, given he's trying to simply survive Hogwarts.Story Discord: https://discord.gg/8b7zt5PBHp
