Summary
If the Ministry's response to the world's most infamous Dark Wizard being raised from the dead is complete denial, it should be no surprise that they don't even notice when the second most infamous Dark Wizard goes missing.
When Gellert Grindelwald escapes prison after getting a vision of Albus Dumbledore's death, he learns that Hogwarts is looking for yet another Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor. It seems like the perfect excuse to get close to the Headmaster so that he can protect Albus. But with Albus more suspicious than ever and the Ministry determined to get its talons into Hogwarts, how long can he hide his identity?
Albus is thankful to have found a professor who isn't some Ministry puppet. Harry just wants someone to assure him that his dreams don't mean he's losing his mind.

Summary
Not every villain dies in vain. Some choose to lose.
When young journalist Carlotta Edgecombe is granted three interviews with the most feared prisoner in modern magical history, she doesn’t expect charm. Or laughter. Or the unbearable gravity of a man who once tried to remake the world—and did. Almost. Or more?Locked behind the enchanted walls of Nurmengard, Gellert Grindelwald sits not like a man imprisoned, but like one who allowed the world to catch him. And as Carlotta peels back the layers of his philosophy, his manipulation, and the brutal elegance of his logic, truth becomes hard to ignore.

Summary
On the 10.02.1929, the world draws a breath when lives hangs in the balance. The vision has come to pass as Gellert Grindelwald foresaw it, though, in the after, that is of fairly little consequence. There is only Death, and his antidote, a life of torment. The spark grew to flame, and the inferno consumed it all. There is only ashes, now.
Meanwhile, two unlikely teams attempt their utmost to ensure the survival of their friends- nay, family, learning a great many things about those they love so fiercely. If all else fails, one can always rely on one's great-aunt. One's great-cousin! One's... godchild and adopted family? Or... on one's mother...? One's grandpa? Or one's... half-sibling?! Wait, we're getting ahead of ourselves.
Explore a new era between the lowest of lows and the highest of highs, spanning from Hogwarts to Nurmengard, and India to Ilvermorny, from second chances under Parisian starlight to dragonfyre in Hungary, from a crypt in Yorkshire to the bowels of Hogsmeade. After all, many mysteries await.
And, maybe, just maybe, there is something to the Dumbledore family legend, a companion coming to any member in need. And in direst need, perhaps some can simply become phoenixes themselves.

Summary
Two past lovers, friends, allies... Some might say they're hiding from each other. But that is only part of the truth - both feel betrayed by the other, and lonely without him. Both are keeping more secrets than they care to admit.
After the Paris ralley, the Ministry of Magic allies with its French counterpart to force Albus Dumbledore into working for them. Using the suspicious deaths in his family, they create a false case against Aberforth that will be dropped under only one condition: Albus has to solve their Grindelwald problem.
A desperate Albus reaches out to Grindelwald. Once a naive, manipulated boy, he has learned to play the game. But was he as innocent, as he would like you to believe? Gellert Grindelwald has a few words to say about the matter...

Summary
What precisely happens when a spark turns to a flame? It is 18:16 in the afternoon on a sunny late September Saturday in 1928, and Albus Dumbledore has once more done the unthinkable – attach himself lips-first to the man who happens to be the love of his life, and his biggest enemy simultaneously.
Although, this, of course, is a lie. They are neither, and both, and so much less, and so much more. They ARE. They are! They are... something? Well, Gellert Grindelwald quite certainly knows what they are, and are to be. So does Albus. Pity, only, that these two [imbeciles] never do have a heart-to-heart to see whether their opinions for once actually align...
Accompany them as they fool the ministries on numerous occasions, break people out of prison, fight for the rights of Lycanthropes, dance at a variety of balls, explore the concept of exile, eat, of course, numerous delicacies, make ground-breaking discoveries, commit crimes and do right by people, meet old friends and make new enemies, and just overall somehow stay alive through it all.
But beware: Not all fae-tale stories have a happy ending...
