Summary
The war is over, but its aftermath is brutal.
Hermione Granger has survived Voldemort—barely. Haunted by what she’s done, abandoned by those she once called family, and broken in ways she can’t name, she returns to a shattered Hogwarts with no purpose except survival. When Minerva McGonagall offers her a lifeline—an apprenticeship under the war-scarred, voiceless Severus Snape—she accepts, too tired to resist.
But Snape has ghosts of his own. Disfigured, mute, and hollowed out by sacrifice, he agrees to mentor the last person he wants near him… under one condition: when the year ends, he walks away for good.
Neither expects to find reflection in the other’s ruin. Neither wants to need, to hope, or to feel again. Yet amid the ruins, mistrust, and bitter silences, a bond begins to form—raw, volatile, and painfully human.
This is a story of war’s quietest casualties. Of survivors. Of enemies becoming uneasy allies, and of two broken souls dragged—resentfully, desperately—toward something like healing. But not without blood. Not without cost.
And not without war leaving its deepest bruises on them both.

Summary
Harry Potter is cold.
(He is always cold.)
Harry Potter was placed with the Durselys to hide him away.
It was unfortunate, but the wards took this one step further. Lily Potter nee Evans was rushed. The protection she had cast was shoddy and slapped together in an act of desperation, fear, and sheer spite.
Her baby would live and her baby would be hidden.
The wards allowed nothing less.
...***...
This is not a story of a brave Boy-Who-Lived. This is not a story of the Boy Who Lived at all.
Harry Potter was cold and no one seemed to notice.- Language:

Harry and Tom’s souls are tied together. Which is why they’re in this endless loop of rebirth.
At some point, they stopped caring and just started fucking with people.

Summary
989 AD. Saxon King Æthelræd is unsteady on his throne, faced with the increasing threat of Danish invasion into England. Villages are ravaged by both armies. In the Danelaw region of England, a young Norse healer named Helga cares for children orphaned by war; and when one begins to show signs of magical abilities, Helga – herself one of the most gifted witches in the Danelaw – realizes that if enough magical children are left with no parents to teach them, then the use of magic might die out in England forever. Helga thus resolves to collect the orphaned witches and wizards of war-torn England and take them somewhere to be educated in safety and secrecy. To accomplish this, she seeks out the aid of Goderic, a Saxon wizard in the king’s household, to bridge the cultural gap. They enlist the Welsh druidess Rhonwen, who uses her scrying glass to locate all of the magical children on the island. And together the three trek north to the Highlands, where they approach the reclusive Basque wizard Salazar with a proposition – to turn the ruined Roman fort on his land into the center of England’s magical education.
The story of the Founders, placed in the most accurate historical and cultural context possible. Please review!
