The War: Severance by wispandwyrm (Wispandwyrmfiction)
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

Summary
The War is not going the way anyone expected.
The Prophet says Harry Potter kidnapped Draco Black (Malfoy).
It’s a good story, but completely wrong.
While the Ministry rewrites their history into propaganda, Harry and Draco move between motels, hotels, cottages, and Spinner’s End—separated from the Resistance and trying to hold themselves together long enough to end the war.
Beneath Hogwarts, something old is waiting.
And in a world obsessed with bloodlines and heritage, they know that family has very little to do with blood at all.
Disguises help a little. Snape’s wardrobe helps more. Sirius Black’s attitude helps most.
Can be read as part of the series or as a standalone wartime arc.

Then the Ministry sends Draco a letter.
Malfoy Manor is missing. Lucius Malfoy is still officially alive. And according to several very old magical laws, that makes the problem Draco’s.
What begins as a bureaucratic nuisance becomes something far stranger: a hidden genealogy, a mother who vanished half a century ago, and a trail that leads north toward the oldest magical landscapes in Europe.Some houses disappear.
Others are waiting to be found.
And Sirius Black has opened a pub.
