Summary
"I'm your father," he replies gently.
"F-ather," Damian repeats clumsily. He knows what the word means, but he can't associate it with an experience. Now that he thinks about it, he has zero experiences to draw from. His mind is an empty void. He does not know who he is, aside from his name, and he does not know what he is supposed to do.
"That's right," his father hums in agreement. "I'm your father, you're my son, and now you're home."

Summary
Harry Potter had been an unwanted freak in the Dursley home, so when an opportunity arises for them to be rid of him, is it any wonder they jump on it? Harry finds himself trapped and experimented on like a lab rat by those that wield the strange power he's come to suppress. When he finally escapes, he carries with him a secret that must be kept so, lest he find himself shown as the freak he had always been told he was.

With every face a familiar stranger and his real friends out of reach, Harry must now navigate building all of his relationships from scratch— all while recovering from the scars that his own war-torn world has left behind.

Summary
“Selkies steal your heart. Merrow drown your children. Sirens sink ships,” Ron whispered, eyes downcast now. “Everyone knows that. There’s a reason wizards aren’t big into going swimming and sailing.”
Harry sank, wide-eyed, to the bottom of the tank, a massive lump in his throat. Hermione nudged Ron with her foot, tipping her head towards Harry reprovingly. Ron dragged his eyes up again and grimaced.
“Not that… not that I think you’d do those things,” Ron said awkwardly, glancing at Hermione and then shuddering. “But… you could.”
Harry shook his head, curling his nauseatingly flexible tail against the smooth walls of the tank. He hadn't meant to imperio Hermione - he'd never!
Except, he had, hadn't he?
Monster.

He even thinks skipping your kid’s birthday three years in a row might not be normal.
He's just not old enough to do anything about it.
***
In the second half of 1999, Tim Drake makes friends, mixtapes and questionable decisions.

Summary
Draco Malfoy is not an owl, really he isn’t. He simply assumes the shape of one on occasion when he wants to find a bit of privacy—a goal entirely thwarted because Harry Potter doesn’t understand you can’t just grab any old bird from the Owlery and force it to send your missives and deliver your packages.

Summary
They called the soldier into a training room where he saw his son hanging upside down on the ceiling.
“Hi Papa!” He cheered, waving with a big smile even though the soldier never gave one back.
“Look, Soldat, your son is a miracle,” an agent cackled, yellow teeth shining in the fluorescent lights, “crawling the walls like a little spider!”
***
The soldier doesn’t remember his son’s birth or how he came to be. He doesn’t remember bedding a woman and watching her belly swell, but they said the boy was his. He does know that he will protect and teach the boy within the confines of their cell walls. Even when the handlers berate him. Even when the good guys take him away
