    Summary

    War leaves hollows.

    In the aftermath of the Ministry battle, wounds run deep: scars on skin, shadows on hearts, families broken and remade. Theo Nott inherits a name he despises, Aurelia Black learns the weight of love and family, and Harry Potter faces truths that hollow him to the core. Even Sirius Black and James Potter, both finally free, find that freedom carries its own fractures. Regulus Black wrestles with the fear that love makes him unworthy, while Draco Malfoy claws his way back from the Dark Lord’s shadow.

    But hollows are not only emptiness. A bone, when hollow, can carry breath, can sing, can transform into life itself.

    Summary

    The underwater kingdom of Gillysea is dark and dank, but Regulus Black, the last remaining prince of the Mer, has never known anything else. That is, until one day, he decides to visit the surface. What he finds there is that he knows nothing about the world, and even worse, knows nothing about himself.

     

    As sleep pulls him under, the last thought that crosses his mind is that they're even, he and James. They've saved each other, haven't they? Regulus can't help but wonder if either of them stink of doom.

    Summary

    "Born as the seventh month dies," Voldemort murmured, his voice soft and contemplative. "Parents who have thrice defied me… that can only refer to the Potters, or the Longbottoms.”

    Severus’ heart skipped a beat.

    “Not the Potters,” he said quickly.

    Voldemort turned to look at him, his gaze going sharp. “Not the Potters?”

    “Their son was born on the first of August,” Severus said. “The prophecy cannot refer to him.”

    Harry is born on the first of August. Voldemort targets the Longbottoms instead, kills them and wins.

    Together with Severus, he remakes the wizarding world.

    Summary

    It’s Merida’s second year at the Skyfall Academy, and life is finally settling into something that almost resembles normal. She has friends. Her dragon, Seraphrax, is growing stronger by the day. The sky feels closer, the fire in her chest burns brighter.

    Of course, peace never lasts.
    At Hogwarts, students and ghosts are turning to stone, and somehow her twin brother’s ability to talk to snakes has everyone convinced both of them are the Heirs of Slytherin.

    Merida’s solution? Maybe she can just self-study her Hogwarts classes this year instead.
    …What do you mean that’s not allowed?

    Summary

    On the night Voldemort comes to Godric’s Hollow, Lily’s sacrifice saves Harry — but a mysterious young woman saves James. Years later, James Potter raises his son with the help of Sirius and Remus, grieving his wife yet haunted by the memory of the stranger who looked at him with heartbreaking familiarity. When Harry enters Hogwarts and James finally meets Hermione Granger, he realizes the truth: the girl who saved him is the same witch who now walks at his son’s side.

    What begins as a struggle to reconcile grief, fate, and fatherhood becomes a battle against destiny itself. Across the years of war, James must confront Dumbledore’s secrets, Harry’s peril, and the growing pull toward the brilliant witch bound to him by time. As Hermione discovers the cost of stepping into the past and James learns to live beyond the shadow of loss, their entwined paths reveal a truth neither can deny: this was the path that was always meant to be.

    Summary

    Regulus Black dies on a dreary, cold December day, which, frankly, he never expected. In fact, if given a choice, he would’ve preferred to die in September—somewhere in between the miserable heat of summer and the gloomy cold of autumn, just for the spite of it all. But no, the universe had other plans.

    After gulping down a potion that burns like liquid acid and battling some nasty Inferi in his final moments, Regulus is ready for the afterlife—a peaceful hill where he can watch his loved ones live their lives without him. A nice, quiet end. Or so he thought.

    Instead of passing on to his idyllic hill, he wakes up in the past—still stuck in his childhood bedroom, surrounded by the same old stuffy house and the same miserable family.

    Great.

    Apparently, gods and deities have a twisted sense of humor, but Regulus isn’t about to let this slide. If he has to relive this mess, he’s going to get that damn hill one way or another—even if it's the last thing he does.

    Summary

    After uncovering truths that forever change how he sees the war, death, and himself, Harry Potter finds himself standing before a choice that is both impossible—and inevitable.

    As the wizarding world burns in battle, an ancient prophecy settles upon his shoulders like a cloak of sacrifice. But just when everything seems sealed by fate, an unexpected encounter with Luna Lovegood rekindles the spark of the unknown.

    With cryptic words and an ancestral vow, Luna charts a new path for Harry—one that defies the destiny he thought was his. A silent train, a forgotten spell, and a sacred promise between magical Houses intertwine their fates into something far greater than war: the awakening of a new truth.

    Summary

    James and Lily Potter thought they'd mastered parenting—until Zephyra.

    Their rainbow baby, born after two heartbreaking losses, experiences the world differently. Zee doesn't just dislike scratchy socks—they feel like fire on her skin. She doesn't prefer routines—she needs them like oxygen. And when the world becomes too much, only Harry, her golden-boy brother, knows how to calm her storms.

    But as Zee's meltdowns grow more intense and Harry begins building a life beyond their family, the Potters face their hardest lesson: love isn't always enough to bridge the gap between two worlds.

    Now James must confront his own insecuritues and struggles, Lily fights to hold their family together, and Harry discovers that being Zee's safe person might mean never being able to leave.

    A story about autism, family, and all the things we fail to say—until it's almost too late.
