    Summary

    Harry Potter is called up to Dumbledore's office and told he was being moved elsewhere to keep him safe. He no longer has to stay at the Dursley's, but Dumbledore tells him he has to stay with Severus Snape. For a few days it seemed like a bad idea. Until Severus Snape uncovers the truth of who Harry Potter really is and what he's been through. Watch as Severus does as nobody else has done before him. He takes care of Harry. Watch him flourish into who he was meant to be, a boy with the heart of a Gryffindor and smarts of a Slytherin. The Dursley's, Umbridge and Dumbledore had better watch out Severus is out for revenge. Spy or no spy, Severus is not allowing anyone away with hurting Harry.

    Summary

    In 1993, Gilderoy Lockhart points a stolen wand at Harry Potter and Ron Weasley with the intent to Obliviate them. The wand doesn't backfire. Gilderoy's "discovery" of the Chamber of Secrets is a short-term success.

    Other consequences are not short-term at all.

    Archived Author's Notes:
    I was watching the Chamber of Secrets movie several years back when the scene in question began to play...and immediately I wanted to know what would happen if the wand had done what it was supposed to do. The answer got very complicated, very, *very* quickly.

    Blame Edgar Allan Poe for the title.

    Beta work by Norcumi and Mrs_Stanley. Brit Spellcheck will be performed...soon.

    *I use the first 7 books and the Tales of Beedle the Bard as canon, but there are moments from the films used because they left me with fun things to play with.

    Summary

    “I can’t do this Harry, oh gods, Harry, it’s awful, it’s horrid,” she wheezed, feeling dark circles start to cloud her vision. She dimly felt him reach over and pick up the sheet she had abandoned, and soon felt him tugging at her chin, forcing her to look at him.

    “You can do this,” he said steadily. “You can and you will. We’ll do this together, I promise.”

     

    In the aftereffects of the Second Wizarding War and a devastating plague, British Wizarding society is on the brink of collapse. A final desperate measure has been enacted - a Marriage Law that binds one witch to several wizards, each of which is a perfect match for her to produce the most viable magical offspring. Forced to abide by the law or be tossed into Azkaban, Hermione soon finds herself knee deep in wizards - or rather, husbands, as the Ministry would have it.

    Summary

    To the girl with the bushy hair and the hungry mind, the Hat says RAVENCLAW;

    To the boy with the scar and the ask of otherwise, the Hat says SLYTHERIN;

    To the sixth son who has already chosen the two others, from a chance encounter on a train, the Hat says HUFFLEPUFF;

    and Flitwick is delighted and Sprout is intrigued and Snape is resigned, to say the least.

    Or: Perhaps the trio is inevitable everywhere, but in this variation, none of them are in Gryffindor, and they do their best to build things anyway.
