    Summary

    Maybe the safest place in the world is no wider than a hug, as you tuck all your angles and nuzzle deeper into those arms: where the depth of which is in metres and in thousands if you count, stripping bare all your worries until you land beside a heart; where it’s the most grounded thing in the universe and it’s your shield and it’s your sword. It’s your knight, it’s your kingdom — you’re protected inside its walls. That there’s nothing that can hurt you, that could bother you anymore, as you rest here and nest here and feel safe within these arms.

    It’s the afternoon when he creeps in, when he settles into Harry’s arms — collapsing to his chest and finding comfort within his warmth. That he snuggles himself in and breathes all he is, pillowed by a heart that has always had room for him.

    Summary

    On returning to Hogwarts for their Eighth Year, Headmistress McGonagall decided to room Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter together. She may have hoped for a leading example of house unity; the other students fully expected insults and fights. But nothing happened.

    That was, until Harry sleepwalked into Draco’s bed.

    Harry was a lion. Tom was a koala. Can I make it any more obvious?

    Or: Harry and Tom have a competition to see who can achieve an Animagus form first. Suffice to say, Tom isn't very happy with the result.

    Summary

    Harry was twenty-eight years old when Tom buried him in the cold, unforgiving ground. The funeral took place mid-December, shortly before the winter solstice. People brought candles, tiny spots of light in the sea of darkness that Harry had left behind. There were tears, too, streaking the faces of Harry’s friends and family—the glittering proof of their shared pain.

    Tom did not cry. He remained somber, aloof, distant. He caught the soft, pitying gazes thrown his way and met them with indifference because none of it mattered.

    Harry was dead.

    Summary

    Being a Parselmouth came with the inherent predisposition to understand snake behaviours and imitate them. It was relieving Harry wasn’t going to kill anyone with venom, nor petrify them with his gaze. But also, somewhat frustrating as it was all completely useless. None of the skills that came with being a Parselmouth would help Harry survive Voldemort.

    It might, in fact, have the opposite effect. For all Riddle's fury that Harry was the cause of his elder self’s defeat, he was fascinated by the fact Harry was also a Parselmouth. He had grabbed Harry’s face, turning him side to side looking bemusedly enraptured by Harry’s threat display. “At your age, I was imitating much more vicious snakes than this, Harry.”

    That may have been all well and good, but Harry didn’t feel very vicious. He felt very threatened and in over his head.

    Summary

    --

    Once you eat so much, you’ll be sick of it.

    --

    Supporting Harry was the easiest thing in the world.

    He always came to Tom first in the aftermath of the inevitable break.

    And Tom was always there, ready with a padded shoulder to cry on, for just every time Harry failed a little more.

    --

    Because why couldn’t he get through a date?

    Why was there always something…not right…about every girl he went out with?

    It was the little things. He only noticed once they all got too close…

    --

    But Tom—Tom was always there.

    He would always listen, he would always sympathize.

    He would always cheer him on.

    No matter what, Harry knew that would never change.

    Because Tom…was perfect.

    Summary

    Harry hesitated briefly before deciding to agree and go out with Tom. If it went horribly he could cry about it to Hermione over a tub of ice cream, listening to sad music and ruining her couch.

    ‘Yes’ Harry thought excitedly ‘this is a great plan!’

    Draco writes romance novels and doesn't leave his apartment much. Harry bakes bread and sells it to Draco. Draco is quite weird. Harry might like that.

    Summary

    Harry is, or was, never concerned about identity and sexuality. After all he did spend some of his childhood under the care of his godfather, Sirius I-fuck-anything-with-a-hole Black.

    But right at this moment, he could feel a real crisis coming on. A crisis in the form of a classically tall, dark, and handsome stranger rolling a suitcase into the apartment next to him.

    An illegally handsome man with perfectly coiffed hair, perfectly pressed luxury-brand clothes and perfectly elegant stride who had no business whatsoever hanging out in this crappy, seedy neighbourhood that Harry was living in.

    Summary

    So far in the year 1978, Harry Potter has published his first book, graduated from Hogwarts, attended his twin brother's wedding, and received a letter from the dark lord that is terrorizing the Wizarding World. Now, his parents have died of dragon pox as well. It feels as if Harry's solitude has left him in a whole, where all he does is work on his astronomy charts, but the letters from Voldemort just keep coming. And, well, Harry has never had someone to speak with on an intellectual level...

    Summary

    Ficlet based on the following prompt:

     

    Prompt:

     

    Voldemort stares down at his soon to be husband, Harry.

    He had taken the boy as part of his conquest.

    Yet no matter how kind or cruel Voldemort was the boy never gave in. It seemed nothing worked.

    Voldemort could not get him to have a proper, balanced diet! About the only thing he seemed to eat was treacle tarts, and when he ate other things he ate very little.

    Unacceptable.

    Summary

    In 1934 Tom Riddle is adopted and changes the course of his life dramatically. In 1940s Hogwarts, Tom Riddle is at war with his fellow Slytherins and things aren't going in his favour.

    In 1980s Scotland, the Potters' marriage is a slow-motion landslide and Harry Evans sides with his mother, who teaches him compassion above all else. In 1995, Harry Potter finds a lost treasure in the Chamber of Secrets and falls in love.

    A hate-and-love story told in two parts.

    Obscurial!Tom Riddle. The first section is all hurt. The second section is somehow the fluffiest thing I've ever written. Un'beta-ed because I ran out of time.

    Summary

    ‘I can explain,’ the man starts, putting the spoon he’s been using that is unmistakably Harry’s beside the jar and raises his hands in surrender. There’s a brown smudge on one corner of his lips, and that’s how Harry knows that the jar most likely contains Nutella.

    There’s also a small, steady trickle of blood on the man’s cheek, but Harry is going to ignore that for now. There’s too much going on—there’s just too many inputs and his not-quite medicated brain is too overwhelmed to compute them properly. He doesn’t even feel angry anymore. He blinks.

    The man blinks right back.

    A few seconds pass.

    ‘Okay, maybe I can’t,’ the man concedes.

    Summary

    Harry ruffles through the buckets of flowers in the cooler. “What are you looking for?”

    “Something special. It is a note.”

    Harry pauses. For days Draco has visited his flower shop, but not once has he ordered anything with a message.

    Harry Potter has fallen in love. Naturally, the only way to do so is to pine Victorian-fashion, his secret hidden behind blooming flowers.

    Summary

    It’s good coffee for Merlin’s sake, Draco asserted. His job is hard and exhausting and coffee keeps him alert and it just so happens that the best coffee around is made by Harry Potter. There’s nothing more to it.

     

    Draco finally admits his feelings to himself and it turns out pretty okay. :)
