Summary
Potter is utterly livid. He turns on himself, but stops at the door’s skirt. There’s a beat of silence and Draco doesn’t look, clamps his eyes shut, holds his breath. Potter says it on an exhale, so that it rings true and honest and crystal clear to Draco’s ears.
“You’re not worth it, anyway.”
It’s another blow to the head, a contravention with Draco’s name on it, a new poison to be served at breakfast. Draco doesn’t think he could shrink into himself any further if he tried. Potter walks away and he must be halfway gone already when Draco hears him say, low and resentful, in a manner that reminds him of his own father.
“Your father said: forgive me.”

Or: Draco does time in Azkaban. The aftermath is legendary.

Summary
"Three for three," Harry says. "All three of my kids. Just seems — well, and then there's Ginny. That's — sort of — everyone."
Malfoy's mouth starts to curl, not enough to bring out the dimples. It's on the edge of meanness, really. "Feeling left out, Potter?" he says. "The only straight one in the family?"
"Ha," says Harry, trying for sarcasm but winding up sounding a little forlorn.
"Ever wonder if it's hereditary?" Malfoy says, throwing back the last of his drink and going over to the bar for more. "I do. Seems like it might be, with me and Scorpius, and Ginny and your kids."
This, in fact, runs so close to Harry's thoughts that he laughs in spite of himself. "You asking me if I'm queer, Malfoy?

Summary
A process is recursive when it defines or contains itself; e.g., the Fibonacci sequence, which determines the next number as the sum of the previous two.
But not all recursive processes are mathematical. Recursion can happen in a temporal context when, for instance, the powerful magical force that is true love drags you back in time so it can create itself, endangering the fate of the Wizarding World—not to mention the very fabric of space and time—along the way.
