Summary
When Harry gets quickly bored of staying in Diagon's main alleyway, he devises a plan to explore the rest of the alley, to the exasperation of Tom the Barman.
He never thought he'd discover a mild version of a rare magical skill and gain a passion in rune craft while doing it, but he can't really complain as it eventually gets him a boyfriend too.

Summary
When Harry finally ran away from the Dursleys after a fateful visit from his Aunt Marge, he definitely wasn’t expecting to get a job. Learning more about wizarding culture, that not all Slytherins are bad, ancient runes, and how to find family, this was certainly not how he saw his third year going. A mass murderer who happens to be his godfather has escaped prison and his friends haven’t noticed that he leaves each night to go to his job. Could this year get any more chaotic? Yes, because it’s Harry Potter.

Summary

Harry is well on his way of becoming an obscurial because of the advice of a well meaning witch of cause no harm | he repressed his magic and emotions like anger because of it | she taught him furthak runes
-----
The rune is working, and it's because Harry used blood to draw it.
It's a simple connection to make. He drew this rune out with the blood from a paper cut on his index finger, and when he finished the paper lit up in flames.
This is what he was missing. He was just too silly before, he thought the moon caused the first rune to glow. But now he knows! He's done magic again and now he's a confirmed freak but he's one with powers!
He's heard other students talk about fictional heroes such as Superman and Wolverine, but Harry's real. He's purposefully made something happen and now he's going to master it.
Harry rips the paper in half and lovingly places the pieces on his tiny shelf.
He's going to master these runes and he's going to make sure nobody leaves him ever again.

Summary
Harry Potter was a weapon. Not because of a soul piece, or a talent, or sacrifice, or love. But because he was raised to be one.
He’s just… not quite the weapon Albus expected.

Summary
[A half English student from Beauxbatons arrives at Hogwarts just in time to fall for George Weasley and land in the middle of a war she can’t outrun.]
He shortened his strides to match hers, a quiet ease as he navigated the turns of the halls. Meanwhile she was hyper aware of her breathing, louder than her footsteps and seeming to echo through the castle. She was about to apologize, insist she wasn't out of shape, but maybe all the traveling....
"What's your name?" he asked. "I guess I'll hear it when they call you to be sorted, but I'd kind of like to know it before everybody else does. I met you first, seems fair, or less weird than not knowing."
She tucked a wayward strand behind her ear. Her cheeks felt as red as his hair.
"It's Eleanore. Eleanore Ducharme. It's nice to meet you, George Weasley.

Summary
Harry tore his eyes away from the man on the catwalk. The merry party of wizards were advancing on him with Moody at the helm, leaving Uncle Vernon to smoulder a few metres away. He was asked if he was ready to go, which he didn't respond to. He simply let Moody's gnarly, root-like hand clamp onto his shoulder and lead him away.
They followed all the way to Uncle Vernon's Mercedes. Some of them gave Harry hugs while other whispered reassurances that they'd see each other again soon. That the weeks would fly by and that they would come to get him before he knew it. But Harry knew very well that he was doomed. He knew that this would be the last he ever saw of any of them.

Summary
Post-Hogwarts, Daphne Greengrass is an overworked single mother of three, long past chasing glory in dusty tombs and rune-laced ruins. Curse-Breaking is just a job now, a stable paycheque, a reliable grind. That is, until a sealed artefact from a forgotten era lands on her desk, humming with forbidden magic and secrets that refuse to stay buried.
Now she's forced into an uneasy alliance with her alcoholic ex-brother-in-law, Ronald Weasley and her infuriatingly overprotective ex-boyfriend/baby daddy Harry Potter, all while juggling interdepartmental politics, magical mythologies, and a mounting sense that something far older than Dark Magic is watching—and waiting.
Ancient blood, lost gods, and a box that was never meant to be opened.
One misstep, and history might just repeat itself.A darkly mythic post-war two-shot. AU. Adult cast. Ensemble
