Summary
There’s something very unsettling about Tom Riddle.
Cedric can’t put a finger on it. Whether it’s the way he moves, all long limbs and eerie fluidity, the dissecting gaze he follows them with, or the way he speaks, with an accent that doesn’t match his manners. Maybe it’s how he drinks in Harry’s presence like a religious zealot, or how his eyes wander over Harry’s body as if he’s seen the skin and flesh underneath before.

Summary
“Do you think he meant it?” Harry asked, once the professor was gone, tracing the gilded lettering of his own name on the letter he'd given Harry. “We're really Wizards?”
“It makes sense,” Tom shrugged, though he could hardly look away from his own letter, the proof of what he'd always known, in some pit inside himself, that he was something different from everyone around him, that he was something better. He'd believed the first priest that had told him the same thing, albeit it opposite in nature, that he was a devil. It had made sense at the time, just as this answer did. Anything that offered an explanation for his being set so apart.
“I'm glad it's both of us,” Harry said, green eyes somehow greener, the natural brightness in him turning incandescent. Tom had thought he'd known the answer for that before too, dull hours at Sunday service spent gazing at the sun illuminating stained glass portraits, thinking: angel. “I'm glad we're going together.”
“We'll always go together,” Tom said, knowing it as fact, unable to imagine anything different. Wherever he went, Harry was sure to follow. It'd been that way forever. It would surely always be that way.

Summary
The killing curse still rebounds that fateful Halloween night, but it hits the roof instead of its caster. The Dark Lord wakes to find his magic subdued in Azkaban’s highest fortress. For twenty-three years a monster waits in the dark, chained and alone, until suddenly there is light.
Harry Potter, newly licensed Mind Healer, has finally put his fame to good use by advocating for Hermione Granger’s Azkaban Reform Initiative. Dementors are out and clean living conditions, fresh water, and Ministry-mandated mental health counseling is in. But the plan can’t succeed until every prisoner gets the resources they need, and no one else wants this assignment…
In which Harry puts personal history aside to take on his hardest job yet.
“Talk to me, please. Give me a chance to make you better.”
Lord Voldemort looks downright murderous.

Summary
Coriolanus Snow has been President of Panem for 3 years when he is first forced to go to District 12. It's a disgusting sort of place, really, and he'd avoid it for the rest of his presidency if he could. But that's where he meets the strangely enchanting Lucy Gray Baird. Faced with a rush of feelings that threaten to overflow into obsession, Coriolanus does everything in his power to keep Lucy Gray close to him, even if it makes her hate him forever.
