Summary
He lets himself think about it—what a life without magic, without Voldemort, without this constant looming expectation to perform at the whims of the wizarding world might be like—and he feels little more than relief and an itch to get going already.
---
Overcome by grief and guilt after Sirius’s death, Harry leaves the wizarding world behind for a new life across the pond. As an unassuming Muggle, his life is ordinary and unglamorous, but fate eventually has its way of drawing him back to where he’s meant to be.

Summary
Tom still remembers arriving home for Christmas, only to discover their cabin empty of life, abandoned by Harry. He pushed his way into Harry’s bedroom and crawled onto his narrow bed, despair and rage like nitro and glycerin in his heart, fomenting destruction. The pillow still smelled like him. It smelled like Harry, his precious Harry, like—
Tom's eyes widened, his nose in the fabric, shivering at the subtle sweetness of the scent. It was muddled, distant, fading, but there. Tom, freshly presented and sensitive, could finally smell it. Harry, his Harry, was an unpresented Omega.

Summary
There was a shuffle and a knock on the bathroom door.
“Oi! I told you we’d be in here for a while. Go piss upstairs!” Ron called out to the twins.
“Ron? It’s Remus. Is everything okay?”
Ron pinked to his ears, seemingly mortified at implying he was in the bathroom with someone, to one of his professors. Harry chewed on his lips to keep his grin contained.
“Yes… Everything’s fine!” Hermione called out, and Ron’s blush bloomed dark crimson.
“Is Harry in there with you?” Sirius’ voice called out next, and Harry groaned.
Fucking great. He really didn’t need an audience for the next half hour of his life.
“Uhhh….” Ron said helpfully, and an intense whispering argument broke out between the three.
“Just send them off- say it’s just you two!”
“We’re not going to lie! Let’s just tell them we’re doing an experiment for school!”
“That won’t work at all. Lupin taught all three of us. He knows Harry and I aren’t doing summer work!”
Remus’ voice cuts in, deadpan, “Well, you should be doing your summer homework, as a refresher on the hearing capabilities of werebeasts would probably do you some good.”

Summary
“Remus, he needs someone who can connect with him…” Minerva’s voice had a desperate edge to it, “He doesn’t trust us.”
“And you think he’ll trust me? I’m as much a stranger to him as you.” He turned his eyes to Dumbledore, pushing past the discomfort as they made eye contact and his soul was pierced by the shrewd gaze.
“We think he may trust you because you and he have similar… backgrounds.”
He frowns at her, trying to put the pieces of what she’s saying together. Similar backgrounds? Shitty childhoods, maybe?
“Harry was not attacked.” Dumbledore says, breaking the silence, “He perpetrated it.”
A cold chill runs through Remus’ body. His mouth is suddenly far too dry and he feels as if bands wrap around his chest. He shakes his head.
“What?” He wheezes out, feeling all at once that his chest will cave in when he hears what Dumbledore has to say.
“I’m sorry to have to tell you this.” Dumbledore sounds truly grieved, and Remus feels bile rise in his throat. He’d used that same tone of voice when he’d found him after news about James and Lily, Peter and Sirius had broken. Had it really already been four years since he’d lost them?
“Harry is an Obscurial.”
