    Summary

    Harry Potter was done waiting.
    After years of beatings, neglect, and being treated like an inconvenience in his own home, Harry runs away from Privet Drive in the middle of summer—tired of the Dursleys’ cruelty, the silence from those who were supposed to protect him, and the strained, carefully-worded letters from friends who feel increasingly out of reach.
    In the heart of Diagon Alley, Harry discovers something that should have been impossible: he is not only the Heir of House Potter, but also the Heir of House Black. Two ancient lines of magic awaken within him—fire and ice, honour and control—binding themselves to him in ways he is only beginning to understand.
    When legal magic confirms his emancipation, Harry is offered something he has never truly had before: choice.
    Taken in under the protection of a certain Weasley connection—someone far from the Ministry’s reach and far closer to Goblin law than most wizards realize—Harry begins to rebuild his life from the ground up.
    And if that so happened to be him resorting himself into a certain green and silver Hogwarts house? So be it.

    Magic's Child by

    Fandom Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

    21 Apr 2025

    Summary

    When Harry willingly sacrificed himself for the sake of the Wizarding World as was expected of him, he never imagined for a second he'd wake up in a strange chamber surrounded by people both dead and alive.
    He certainly never expected Mother Magic herself to show up. Or that she'd be disappointed with his sacrifice.
    He also didn't expect her to decide that almost his entire life needed to be redone... And the way she described that like it was a reasonable suggestion was unnerving at best. Terrifying at worst.
    Harry had thought he'd finally fulfilled his destiny, only to learn that he was destined to so much more than death at the hands of a dark lord.
    Armed with seven books, each filled with details of Harry's life he'd rather keep private, Harry and the others settle in for a lesson from Mother Magic on where they all went so horribly wrong.

    Summary

    "Maybe," Peter thought, "I can make a life here."
    Hence the tears and the guilt and the grief, because was Peter allowed to move on? Was he allowed to… to leave it all behind? Leave all the bad things in the past?
    Peter was "The Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man!" after all, and wasn’t he letting Queens - his people - down if he didn’t fight tooth and nail to get back to them?
    or

    Peter's tired. He's so tired, and he doesn't know what to do, but maybe things will get better.
    (They do.)

    technically inspired by Dark Matter by mysterycyclone but really only the "Peter in the DC Universe" part
