Summary
Arthur Pendragon and Merlin were literally from two different worlds. One is a prince from a great kingdom and the other a common farm boy from the next kingdom over. These two should have never met.
But that was before they realized their parents were once friends and arranged the two of them to marry when they reached adulthood. That was before Uther turned on magic and Hunith went on the run with her infant son.
Now almost twenty years have passed and these two boys have grown into men. Camelot knights have found Hunith and come to collect her son.
Will Merlin survive this new world he has been thrusted into? A peasant among royals, a sorcerer among those that would have him killed if they found out. Can Merlin even begin to hope for happiness when the prince he is forced to marry wants nothing to do with him?
Follows canon but with my own arranged marriage spin to it

Wicked is the Blood by MandoVet

Summary
When seven-year-old Harry Potter speaks to a serpent in the London Zoo, he doesn’t just unlock a door; he draws the attention of someone watching. Morticia Addams, matriarch of the famously macabre Addams Family, recognizes the signs of suppressed magic and wounded potential. Upon discovering the boy’s name and the cruelty he’s endured, she makes a decision with all the grace and finality of a guillotine.
Harry Potter is coming home with them.
Raised among poison gardens, swordplay at breakfast, and cousins who play with guillotines instead of toys, Harry finds something in the Addams manor he never knew existed: a family that not only accepts the dark, strange parts of him, but celebrates them. Under the watchful eyes of Morticia and Gomez, alongside Wednesday, Pugsley, Thing, and the rest of the delightfully eerie household, Harry grows into something the wizarding world never expected.
Confident. Unafraid. Powerful.
So when Hogwarts finally comes calling, they are not prepared for this Harry Potter, and he is no longer alone...- Language:

Harry Potter the boy who survives by Sparklingwatermelo

28 Oct 2024

Summary
The sound of hammering fists on the door of his cupboard pulls Harry from the edges of sleep, and the piercing shrieks his aunt is directing through the grate makes him wish he had the ability to fall into an eternal slumber. “Boy! Get out here and help me make breakfast!” It never fails to surprise him how much Petunia sounds like a bird, those green and blue budgies you find in a pet shop, so sharp and shrill he fears for his eardrums. “I won’t ask Twice, boy! If you’re not out here in thirty seconds I’ll fetch Vernon!”
Harry breathes out a sigh. Petunia is one thing… Vernon is something else entirely. Threats to do with his uncle are not something to be taken lightly, the last thing Harry wants is to start his day with a black eye or broken ribs. So, he sits up on his rickety cot, careful to avoid whacking his head on the ceiling of the cupboard, and calls back as politely as he can, keeping all traces of annoyance or anger safely tucked away from his words and tone. “Coming aunt Petunia! Sorry Aunt Petunia.”
Or Harry lives with the Dursleys, finds a magical snake, and goes to Hogwarts. But this is not the Harry Potter Dumbledore expected...
Harry sorts into Slytherin

Summary
After Arthur disobeyed his father and retrieved the Mortaeus flower for Merlin's cure, Arthur's frantic pleading to save Merlin led to a misunderstanding that actually convinced Uther to take the flower to Gaius.
Now all Arthur has to do is explain to Merlin why Uther thinks they are lovers.
And while Uther is supportive of the relationship, he requires it kept secret. But in his paranoia, Uther misinterprets every innocent interaction between the two as something far more intimate, to the embarrassment of everyone involved.
And then the knights begin showing up...

Three years after graduating from Hogwarts, you find yourself caught in the tumultuous web of emotions as you reunite with your former best friend, Sebastian Sallow, after five long years of silence. The tragic events in the Feldcroft Catacombs tore you apart, but your love for Sebastian never wavered.
Now working as an accomplished Auror, recent developments force you to leave your familiar surroundings and relocate to a safer location. Unexpectedly, you are assigned to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where Sebastian has been training as an understudy for the Defense Against the Dark Arts teaching position.

Summary
"You're a vampire," she says calmly.
"Yes."
"I'm not sure whether to be relieved that I was right or terrified that I was right." She's not lying either. She's a bit of both right now.
"Terrified would be the commonly expected reaction," I say softly. Her face is rigid, she's obviously distressed, confused, overwhelmed. I want to help her, to use my gift to calm her, but equally I want her honesty in this moment. If I have any chance at all at honesty with her, she has to be able to process this at her pace.
"I was sort of hoping I had some kind of injury from banging my head so hard," she tells me, her tone and emotional state bitter and slightly wild. "I don't suppose there's any chance this is a hallucination?"
"No, I'm afraid not," I say gently.Series

Summary
Stay away from the light-beds. Stay in the deep.
It is the first thing hatchlings are taught the moment their fans unfurl and they can swim without their parents to buoy them along. It is the first rule, the first law. It is the beginning of every boogey-monster bedtime story told when they settle against the cliffs to sleep.
Castiel should have listened better.
