    Do not let go of that hand, at all costs.

    ....

    I didn’t, I don’t regret it because I truly love everything and everyone here.

    But…who are you?

    Summary

    “No post on Sundays” Uncle Vernon announced happily, “No damn letters today-”
    Something came whizzing down the kitchen chimney as he spoke and caught him sharply on the back of the head. The next moment, thirty or forty letters came pelting out of the fireplace like bullets.
    “That does it!” he snapped, his beady little eyes focused solely on Harry, “It’s you that they want. And they won’t stop coming after us until you’re… gone”.
    Harry didn't like the sound of that.
    “But Vernon, we can’t! You heard what that- that despicable old man told us!”
    “Don’t worry, pet” Vernon said, his nasty grin triumphant, “I’ll leave him someplace so far away that those freaks will never trace him back to us. There’s an institute up north, for these- these hopeless cases and whatnot - St Brutus's Secure Centre for Boys. I’ll leave him there, and then we can get back to our nice, normal life”.

    Or, the one where Harry doesn't attend Hogwarts in first year but finds his way to the wizarding world anyway, and this changes everything.

    Summary

    “Beautiful.” Leona murmured against his lips. Idia whined in protest, but he would have to deal with it. He would say it as much as he needed to, until Idia believed it.

    He wanted Idia to believe it. He wanted to say hundreds, no, thousands of nice things to Idia, over and over again, and he wanted him to believe every word.

    Leona knew he could never make up for all the things that had hurt him, but he wanted to try. At the very least, he wanted Idia to know that he was worth that much effort.

    ---

    Four years after dropping out, Leona receives a call for help from Idia Shroud. But Idia isn't the one who really needs it.

    Summary

    Ever since she could remember, Persephone Jackson always had weird dreams. She watched as the Gods fought the Titans. Watched the birth and stories of gods like Ares and Hermes. Accompanied heroes like Heracles on their quests.

    Her dreams followed her into real life when she was seven, when she woke up screaming, blood in her mouth and electric shocks along her arms. When her mom cradled her in her arms and asked her what was wrong, she told only about dogs chasing her. She said nothing about the satyr, the pain of having her chest gouged into, or the numb feeling of her body morphing into a tree. Somewhere nearby, a Daughter of Zeus gave her life to protect her friends.

    When her mom told her stories of demigods and gods, she didn't tell her she already knew. That she had seen the likes of Perseus slaying monsters to protect his mother, had seen her namesake given to Hades with only the consent of Zeus, had seen a silver eyed goddess protecting women and children.

    Persephone told her mother none of this. Though young, she had also seen what happened to those like her. Those who saw. She was no seer, and would not suffer their fates. She would just paint her dreams away and say nothing of them.
