Summary
“It's you!”
Tom slowly turned around. Harry could barely contain the excitement thrumming through his whole body.
Tom, his only friend from the Muggle world of ‘before’ was a wizard, too!

The dried blood felt uncomfortably tight on his cheeks when Harry opened his mouth and said in a whisper: “Despite everything, it's still you.”

Harry Potter is tired of being the errand boy, a beginner in the Auror Force as he is. His luck turns around when he and his best friend Ron are assigned unofficially to help with the investigation of a murder the likes of which has not been seen since the fall of the Dark Lord Grindelwald two decades earlier.
But the murders keep happening, relationships keep tangling, and not everyone is as they seem…

Summary
When Petunia Dursley refused to take Harry in she forfeited his birthright protection, so Dumbledore took the baby to the safest place he knew: Hogwarts.
The applicable staff (mostly just… not Snape) took Harry in on a rotating schedule as he grew from baby to toddler to child. They traded extra credit for babysitting among the older students, and Harry grew up knowing a few dozen different laps that were safe and warm to nap in.
This was a Harry who grew up among books, among old transient walls and learned professors. They gave Binns night duty sometimes, and let him talk young Harry to sleep. This was a Harry whose world changed, on principle, daily. The stairs moved. The walls became doors. You had to keep your eyes open–you had to pay attention. So he did.
He grew up in a school. Knowledge was power, but knowledge was also joy. This was his sanctuary. There was magic in his world from birth.

Summary
When Harry Potter proposes to Ginny Weasley after an on and off relationship spanning five years, the last thing he expects is to be broken up with for the sake of Ginny's career ambitions. While most people would have a good cry and get on with life, Harry decides he's not ready to give up. If sophistication is what Ginny wants, then sophistication is what Harry will deliver. And who better to help him with some good old-fashioned self-improvement than his old classmate, ex-friend, and unrequited crush, Tom Riddle, or as he's known these days, Lord Slytherin.
"I know it’s an unusual request—” Harry started.
“I’ll do it,” Tom interrupted, resting his hand over Harry’s, their ring fingers overlapping. “I’ll make a husband out of you, Harry.”
“You will?” Harry asked, guarded hope fluttering in his chest.
“Of course,” Tom promised, flashing a charming smile.
