Summary
Reginald Hargreaves adopts seven children. At first, he drafts a strict training regime, with allotted times for every activity to ensure loyalty and unity in the team he is creating.
Then he remembers the group of six who turned up at the Tiki bar all those years ago, the ones who resented him with every bone in their body, and he takes a second to reconsider.
Or; Reginald tries a second time, and everything goes a lot better.

Summary
“Such ego,” Harry breathes out shakily, though his voice trembles with strain.
Riddle grins, and with deliberate intimacy brushes a finger along Harry’s cheek, the touch soft and horrifying in equal measure, “Whatever happened to you, Hadrian…get over it. I’m going to be so much worse.”
Or
Harry Potter dies, and Hadrian Peverell survives. Tom Riddle is just what comes next, or perhaps, what was always there.

Summary
Night time wandering is a state that all omegas find themselves in at one stage or another; a state their waking mind has no memory of when their instincts take over to seek a mate. Will Graham never thought he would find an alpha, and he'd been fine with that, more or less. Until one day his instinctual side found itself in the kitchen of a very interesting alpha indeed!

Summary
Hob Gadling has lived through six centuries of history, and he’s collected more jobs than most people can imagine—mercenary, printer, pirate, mob boss, even a rock musician for a spell. But the one role that feels like home is the one he holds now: Professor Robin Golding, Medieval History, London.
Through lectures about chimneys and buttons, cups of tea at Nina’s café, banter with colleagues, and evenings in his pub, Hob reflects on the small things that shape lives. The inventions that go unnoticed, the food that feels miraculous after centuries of hunger, the city of London itself. And underneath it all, the quiet, stubborn hope that maybe one day his Stranger will walk through the door again.
A story about teaching, eating, laughing, waiting, and living—all the little things that keep Hob going.
