Summary
Before his third year of Hogwarts has even begun, Harry faces three whole weeks of unsupervised time in Diagon Alley. In that time he takes a trip to Gringotts - and that changes everything.
Burdened with the knowledge that Dumbledore has been blocking his family magic, and manipulating far more than he ever thought possible, Harry doesn't know who he can trust; but he knows he can't keep going that way. There's a whole world of lore and politics and history to catch up on, and the more he learns, the more Harry realises his true place in the world, and how much is being kept hidden from him. All the while, Dumbledore's twinkling eyes are constantly watching, and Harry can't let on how much he knows.
With help from unexpected places, Harry starts on a journey to end the war, and reshape the wizarding world. With how much he looks like James Potter, people have forgotten one important thing about him - he is Lily Evans' son, and she was one hell of a witch.

Summary
“Alina, was it?” Aleksanders voice comes from behind her, the door shutting with a soft click as he steps into the room.
She doesn’t jump. Despite knowing that the door should have creaked. It always has. No matter how many times Mal’s dad, their dad, has tried to fix it. She’s too used to the way he sneaks up on her.
You’re supposed to be in New York” She says, ignoring his question. Her name is the least of their concerns.
Aleksander doesn’t seem to agree. “And you told me your name is Alya. I suppose we’re both liars”
Wiping her still wet hands on the towel she turns to lean against the counter, meeting his eyes with a shrug. “Alya is a diminutive of Alina”
“That was a well prepared answer” Aleksander says, resting his hand on the back of a chair. The small table in the breakfast nook acting like a separation between them. “Do that a lot then?”
She tilts her head, like she’s considering his question. “Lie about my name? Or fuck my boyfriends brother?”
Or: Alina goes home with her boyfriend for the holidays and realizes that she might know his brother a bit better than she thought.

Summary
This alternate story begins after Shadow and Bone Season 1 Episode 5. As with many of you, I was heartbroken to see the end of Darklina. Aleksander created the Fold to save Grishas and his mother. He created it accidentally when he was backed into a corner. After centuries of power, revenge, and being told the creator of the Fold was “The Black Heretic”, he became “the villain”. He could have found peace again with Alina. If Darklina was endgame, it would have made such a better story. This alternate ending is the story I hope for in the Grishaverse.

Summary
Aleksandr was right and Alina’s not even surprised. She once thought that it was cruelty, evil, that made ‘wanting to destroy’ his first choice for everything; now she knows the truth: it was sadness, and defeat, and loneliness. It was losing so much and so many. Alina’s tired of losing. She knows now, she’d do things so differently, if she had another chance. But it’s not like it’s possible to change the past. Time-travel just doesn’t exist… right?
