Summary
Lucius Malfoy has spent years desperately searching for a way to remove his Mark. Now, he’s out of time. Salvation - of a kind - comes from the resurgence of an ancient House, under a very familiar name, that could potentially overwrite the Dark Lord’s claim with its own. Of course, swearing his House into vassalage to a fourteen-year-old boy with diametrically opposed values and plenty of reason to dislike his family is far from ideal, but…well, Lucius has always been a practical man. Harry Potter is better than an insane, vengeful Dark Lord, and if that ancient lineage comes back into play? Well, perhaps his family will simply be the first among many; and this, an opportunity to secure a position of high favour...
Harry Potter does not like Lucius Malfoy, and trusts him even less. The last thing he wants is to bind their families together. But Malfoy is a convincing man and his offers and arguments end up sounding so very sensible. He doesn't want Malfoy’s resources and wealth to end up in Voldemort’s hands either, and if Malfoy is truly offering to help him with the things that are important to Harry in return, well…when has anyone else ever really done that before?

Summary
Harry Potter is informed in third year that he's technically Lord Slytherin by Right of Conquest since he killed the basilisk. This is very stupid, but on the other hand, if Harry can use it to protect people and solve their problems, he will. (it's still stupid, though).

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
Hermione Granger does not make mistakes, at least not often. After making the biggest, dumbest, most horrible mistake of her life, Hermione must deal with the repercussions while keeping her relationship with her Auror partner, Draco Malfoy, strictly professional. He, of course, has other plans.
Amidst a resurgence in Death Eater activity, the likes of which Britain hasn’t seen since the First Wizarding War, Hermione will come to realize that the mistake she’s made with Draco might not be so bad at all. It just might be the best mistake.
