    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

    Strange things, dreams. How much credence should we give to where our subconscious takes us?

    There were many things Draco did not need in his Sixth Year. He did not need Theodore Nott implanting strange dreams in his head, for one.

    In the ensuing years, he did not need to constantly remember that blissful, impossible dream. He further did not need Potter bursting into his mostly turned-around life to embroil him in a conspiracy at Azkaban. And he definitely did not need to embark on a clandestine investigation into prisoner mistreatment with Hermione Granger.

    Summary

    Since the war, Harry Potter has gone from Saviour to Scoundrel—not that he’s complaining.

    With a schedule full of gorgeous men, alcohol, and late nights, why would he want to change? Enter Draco Malfoy: beautiful, sharp, and completely untouchable. When Draco comes to Harry with a proposition to help him attract an engagement, Harry’s up for it—after all, how hard can it be not falling for his former nemesis?

    Very hard, apparently.

    Summary

    Here is a retelling of the Aurelian Cycle from Power's POV featuring the Power/Annie ship, with near lethal levels of angst. Very slow burn and getting spicy, but not smutty. Of course the darker themes of Aurelian cycle are present.
    Starting with some chapters from Power's POV leading up to the tournament and through the end of book 1. Re-imagining in book scenes from Power's POV + some additional scenes. Keeping it super cannon in this one, however I have made some changes to Power's backstory and fleshed it out a bit.
    Things will get more involved and connected as I get into the stuff from Flamefall(which will be it's own project), that's where cannon is getting promptly yeeted.
    Also this is going to be first person PAST tense, as I can't write present tense to save my life.
    Finally if you've somehow found this and haven't read the Aurelian cycle, go read it, it's amazing!
    I appreciate any comments, the fandom is so small, so holler if you're out there.
