Summary
Latin; a dead language with no practical applications except perhaps the deciphering of old texts and as a particularly quaint party trick.
Thankfully, as Harry finds out, Latin is not as dead as he was first taught when he decided to learn the language. It wouldn't have mattered anyway, of course; he loved Latin, and would have been proud to know it even had it been as useless as it was pretty. But in the world of Wizards, the world of Magic, Harry realizes his rare talent with words is particularly valuable, and allows him to use magic that no one's ever heard of, that no one's ever seen. But as time goes on, and he becomes more and more entangled in the webs spun by those around him, he starts to realize just how deep the magical rabbit hole goes and how dangerous power like his can be.
All Harry had ever wanted was for the world to make sense.

A slow-boil, realistic journey of a man rediscovering his path in a world of great magic— whether for good, or for evil.

Summary
Theodore Nott was rather proud of his ability to stay out of the limelight, he'll leave that to Malfoy and his sycophants, thank you very much.
However, with the Triwizard Tournament looming ahead, he'll find it impossible to stay in the shadows. All because of Potter and his stupidly nice smile.

Summary
They sought her out for conversation sometimes, cornering her in the garden or at the park, not that they ever had much to say. Really, Harriet thought snakes were rather dull.
---------
Harriet Potter has always been odd. Between having a shadow that moves on its own and chatting with grass snakes, learning she's a witch really isn't the strangest thing to happen to the bespectacled girl with a lightning scar on her neck.
Harriet attends Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where she makes new friends, encounters a prickly Potions Master, learns about the Boy Who Lived, and meets the enigmatic Defense Against the Dark Arts instructor, Professor Tom Slytherin.

Summary
As long as she could remember, Hermione has been given labels- unfit, unstable, ungrateful (lots of words beginning with "un" really.)
But Hermione Granger is not odd or unstable. She is magic.
And this world, too, has a name for her.
In this world, they call her the Girl Who Lived.
(GWL, Chosen one!Hermione Granger)
