Summary
Hal starts his third year at Hogwarts and on the whole, things are going really well. Except for those few things that go really wrong.
Book 3, in which there's trials, escape murderers, Animagi, danger and bravery. And mostly boys trying to figure their way through being 13 and having lots of feels.
(Canon-divergent rewrite of the books, if Vernon Dursley and Lucius Malfoy (independently of each other) had died some years before the start of the story.)

Summary
Harry thinks he's going to have a normal year at school and nobody's going to try to kill him this time.
He's wrong.
(Canon-divergent rewrite of the books, based on how the absence of two minor, but nevertheless key characters (Vernon Dursley and Lucius Malfoy) would change things, with OTPs and other liberties taken.)

Canon-divergent rewrite of the books, based on how the absence of these two minor, but nevertheless key characters would change things, with OTPs and other liberties taken.

Summary
It never bothered Charles that he essentially belonged to someone else from birth. Ever since he could remember he had been told stories about the mysterious prince who was his betrothed, and who one day would be called husband. As he grew older, Charles caught his thoughts drifting away from lessons under strict tutors, his mind slipping into the hazy daydream of his life yet to come...

Summary
A Modern day Merlin AU set at the University of St Andrews, featuring teetotal kickboxers, secret wizards, magnificent bodyguards of various genders, irate fairies, imprisoned dragons, crumbling gothic architecture, arrogant princes, adorable engineering students, stolen gold, magical doorways, attempted assassination, drunken students, shaving foam fights, embarrassing mornings after, The Hammer Dance, duty, responsibility, friendship and true love...
This story was inspired by the thought of Prince William of Wales (and indeed the current Max von Hapsburg) studying at the University of St Andrews; it is also, as the title suggests, at least a little inspired by the operetta 'The Student Prince'.
Grateful thanks to Lamardeuse and DarkEmeralds for Beta and cheerleading!
::2019 note: This story was written BEFORE the TV show introduced the character of Gwaine. It's not that I can't spell, or that I'm perversely writing him out of character - I incorporated other characters from Arthurian legend (Kay, Gawain etc) into my story, and lacking prophetic abilities, my versions naturally don't mesh with the versions subsequently introduced into the show.::
