Summary
They Shook Hands tells the overplot of the Harry Potter series using the Slytherin characters. I couldn’t find the sort of story I wanted to read. I still haven’t found anything that comes close. Canon events still happen, just not in the same manner. I do not introduce wildly out of place elements to the plot. I don’t suddenly send the plot spiralling off into strange new directions. There will be no new systems of magic, mages, elementals, Lordships, harems, or Tolkien elves. I have tried to write a realistic, canonesque story. My characters are not Junior Death Eaters. Every canon incident of their bad behaviour is present here. They are bullies. They are mean. But they’re not evil.
The functional POD is that the Malfoys have a child before Draco, and their development is slightly different. By the time Draco meets Harry, he's realised the value of friendship and is more open of a person. The POD for Harry is when he meets Draco in Madam Malkin's. In TSH, unlike canon, he introduces himself to Draco. They shake hands and decide to be friends. The story is distinct from other Harry-in-Slytherin fics because it doesn't turn on Harry being sorted to Slytherin but rather on Harry becoming friends with Draco.- Words:

Summary
Fudge apparently wanted scapegoats for the DoM incident, and he picked the Ministry 6. Now they're stuck in Azkaban instead of the Death Eaters. The dementors are gone, but things seem bleak... until Luna reveals she's smuggled in a wand. And she seems to be slowly taking control of the island for the DA. Oops. Features Idiot!Fudge, Genius!Luna, Good!Dumbledore, and one very confused Harry.

Summary
Eleven years of virtual solitude leave deep marks. From the shadow of Privet Drive's neat little rose garden to the magical world, those scars still linger on Harry's heart. But for three years, he's been a hero, just as everyone thought he should. And for three years, he's always had to go back to Privet Drive. Just as always knew he would.
But fourth year will be different. This time, he'll make his wish come true. He won't be alone. Come what may, he will make the sunset he always dreamt of in the dark of the cupboard beneath the stairs. No matter what.
And in the end, when he finally gets to see it, surely it will all be worth it.
