Summary
"You have to come with me," he shook his head.
His tone offered little room for argument, but she didn't care a bit.
"Why?" Theodora demanded.
"Because, Miss Byrne, to the great sorrow of the both of us, my saving you means that you are my responsibility until another steps forward to take over that role. Should you get yourself killed out here through sheer force of foolishness, it is a stain upon my character as well as your own. Now, will you come with me, or will you force me to drag you?"
**
When Theodora Byrne wakes up one morning, no longer in her cozy modern bed, but adrift at sea - and on a sea that's home to pirates, both undead and living, no less - she has no choice but to rely on the charity, and the eventual kindness, of Captain James Norrington if she wants to survive. She has no way of knowing the feelings that kindness will soon foster...nor what she'll be willing to risk for a chance to save him from his tragic fate before the end.

Summary
They were soaked to the bone, soaked in each other. It had always been this way. A single touch brought the onslaught of their guilt and disdain and all of the turmoil that had been dragged between them to a grinding halt.
The toxicity, the push and pull of it all, the way he had left and what he had done — to her, and to Theo… it didn’t matter. Not when he was touching her and gluing her back together with acid that tasted like love.
—
UNLOVE ME. I DARE YOU.
—The use of magic is strictly forbidden by the reassembled German Ministry of Magic following the events of the Second Wizarding War, rendering Germany almost entirely magicless. Dark magic permeates the bones and gothic architecture of the nation, and witch hunts are on the rise in the Muggle world in response to an uprising of violent deaths stringing across Northern Europe - all pointing towards escaped inmates from Erkstag. One of which, a highly renowned war criminal and Death Eater, is Draco Malfoy. He flees into Muggle Germany, until a chance encounter leaves him risking it all - his anonymity, his freedom, and pieces of himself he was sure he had lost long ago.

Summary
"Well, here we are." Sirius pushed open the door with a grand sweep of his arms. “Home sweet Hell.”
Sirius had bad memories of Grimmauld Place, tainted by his own less than stellar family. But for Harry, whose summers had previously involved being locked away either in a cupboard or Dudley's second room--with bars on the windows, no less--it was perfect.
---
With Sirius free from Azkaban and taking up his role as Harry's guardian, Voldemort pursuing a political path to power rather than bloodshed, and a defense teacher that isn't actively trying to kill him for once, Harry has high hopes for his third year at Hogwarts. It'll be nice to sit back and be a kid for once.Only Harry's life is never so simple, and he soon finds himself facing a myriad of new challenges: school bullies and new family dynamics, horcruxes all but falling into his lap, his deja-vu brain giving him mixed signals, and hidden murmurs arising from old Death Eater circles that may pose a threat to him regardless of his tentative alliance with Voldemort. Things seem destined to never be easy, but if there's one thing Harry knows by now, it's that he won't have to do it alone.
