    Summary

    AU. The Potter twins survive Voldemort’s attack. However, Albus Dumbledore knows that the root cause of the war, pureblood bigotry and hatred against Muggles and Muggleborns, will endure even if Voldemort never returns. He therefore asks Lily and James to send one of their sons to grow up in the Muggle world while training the other to battle Voldemort, so that together the twins can smooth over the differences between the magical and Muggle worlds in the political arena. And perhaps it might have worked, if not for abusive Dursleys, Harry’s inability to fit into the magical world or his family when he learns of his heritage, and a boy named Theodore Nott.

    Summary

    Two weeks after Sirius Black falls through the Veil, Harry Potter and Hermione Granger are staying at Grimmauld, going through Sirius' things with Remus.

    Two weeks after Sirius Black falls through the Veil, Regulus Black's head breaks above water.

    Dumbledore isn't going to be able to keep the same secrets when a resurrected Death Eater encounters two thirds of the future Golden Trio. But Voldemort's desire for immortality means his favored General is exceedingly interested in her cousin's return to life.

    -----

    “Such magic is dark,” Remus breathed. “It isn’t even meant to exist. It would have required… I mean, a lot of blood, if this is blood magic… surely not…”

    Regulus sighed. Sirius had thought Remus’ stammering and wide eyes when his mind was overworking was cute. Reg disagreed. “Several human sacrifices,” he finished for him. “It would have taken several human sacrifices.” Their mother was certainly deranged enough to do it.

    “Is it reversible?” mini-Potter muttered.

    Summary

    Harry is suspended in the summer before fifth year. Grimmauld Place may seem an unlikely refuge, with an erratic lord and a malicious house elf and a tendency to change when night falls. But a year away from Hogwarts offers opportunities, and Harry begins to learn what it means to be a ward of the House of Black.

    'Magical families deal with the dead differently. The Potters bury theirs which is more of a statement than you’d think. It says ‘our kin are safe in the ground, we trust they will not rise’ - words your grandfather once said to me by the way, not something I just made up for dramatics. Other families don’t have such confidence.' - Sirius Black
