    After a bout of accidental magic when Harry is six, Vernon goes too far. When Harry wakes up, he is gravely wounded and more than fifty years in the past in another world. After some shuffling, Harry ends up at Wool's. There, he meets Tom Riddle, his mysterious roommate, eventual best friend, and the love of his life.

    Inspired by a doctor he meets in the past, Harry is determined to go into medicine and protect other children like himself and Tom. Tom has his own dream of becoming Prime Minister. The boys quickly become inseparable and are determined to help each other down their paths to build a life together.

    Tom understood now that some part of him had never given up on having a… friend. Someone who understood him more than anyone else. Someone who would always take his side.

    In a flash, he knew he would do anything to have Harry Faye’s loyalty.

    Summary

    There is little of himself to be seen in the boy who clearly takes after his mother. He has her coloring, her soft classical features, even her muted air of melancholy, here more pronounced and freshly shaded by grief. Yet looking closely, is there not something in his bearing that reminds him of Robertus’s solemn, thoughtful gaze? Is that petal-pink, bow-shaped mouth not curiously familiar even without Simonetta’s gracious and warming smile? Even those charming, impossible to hide ears are so like his sister’s that his remaining doubts crumble and lie forgotten, and with them his ability to hold firm to neutral disinterest. It is no longer a question that this fragile young beauty is his son, and Hannibal is impatient now to bring him home as soon as possible, and equally unseemly in his sudden desire to hide Will away and allow no other watchful eyes the privilege of an unhindered view.

    Will’s parents die, and it turns out the man who raised him was not his biological father. Hannibal sees in this unexpected development an opportunity to nurture and raise his own companion and partner, in all things and in every possible sense of the word.

    Summary

    "My horse is hitched to a post closer to Asperger's and autistics than narcissists and sociopaths, but that's not what you want to know. You want to know how I faked my genetic profile."

    Jack straightens. "The Bureau doesn't discriminate along species lines--"

    "Unless, of course, you lie on your application or tamper with the genetic screening your employment is conditional upon," Will counters, upper lip curling in disdain. He's not devout, content to be ignored by Others and gods alike, and though he acknowledges the usefulness of the Compact, he considers the monthly tithe too high a price for the boons they receive in return. He's still going to argue this point with anyone who'll listen, because as little as he likes Others, he appreciates hypocrisy even less.

    Summary

    Baoshan Sanren took on Cangse Sanren as a disciple in part due to the fact that she was a descendant of the celestial dragons and warned her that she may pass on her mythical nature to her children. That proved true when her son, Wei Ying, was born; she and her husband were determined to raise him free from the influence of the cultivation sects. Then Wei Changze was killed during a night hunt gone terribly wrong at the Burial Mounds, and Cangse Sanren was only spared because of her special bloodline and the Burial Mound's intervention.

    However, it meant she couldn't turn back into her human form anymore nor leave the Burial Mounds. What did that mean for her and her young son?

    Basically, a canon divergence with dragon Wei Ying and Cangse Sanren, the Burial Mounds as a proper sanctuary, and improved chances for some characters (others...not so much).
