    Bookmarker's Notes

    I've read this series twice, so it's fair to say I enjoyed it (despite some difficulties). I love well-written long fic that sticks it to Dumbledore and/or the wizarding world. Independent and smart Harry, not over the top powerful or lord of every house ever, but not a doormat as in canon. Some of the characters act more logically and maturely than they tend to in canon, though that tends to be a net positive rather than a negative even if they are OOC. Love the crossover(s), especially Tony as Harry's dad. I have something of a hate/hate relationship with the MCU after "Civil War" so the characterization of the Avengers kind of sticks in my craw, but I powered through it for the great interaction between Tony and Harry, and seeing the wizarding world taken down a few pegs by the Starks and their allies. Multiple fandoms show up as character cameos which is fun if bordering on overdone.

    Recommended, with some reservations (as above). Even if you're strictly Team Iron Man and hate Rogers as much as I do, I'd say give this one a try if you enjoy seeing Harry get rescued from the bs that is his life in canon and go on to get the best revenge: living well.

    A time travel fix-it story with an overpowered Harry -- yet it works beautifully. :(Thankfully there's no "harem," no "lord of everything" HP, no animagus Harry, etc. Just a lot of magical power and fore-knowledge thanks to the time-travel.)

    Summary

    Harry Potter is informed in third year that he's technically Lord Slytherin by Right of Conquest since he killed the basilisk. This is very stupid, but on the other hand, if Harry can use it to protect people and solve their problems, he will. (it's still stupid, though).

    So here he is: a monster in the wilderness, a shadow crawling in the sun, trying desperately to be more than his nature. Than the terrified creature two centuries of torment shaped him into.

    (Or Astarion reclaims his personhood, one fraught, determined step at a time. And with a little help along the way.)

    Summary

    If there's one thing Stiles Stilinski knows, it's that Deputy Derek Hale absolutely Does Not Like him. The only reason Derek even tolerates him is because their kids are worryingly codependent.

    So Stiles is understandably confused when a very feral Derek shows up in his backyard after a call gone wrong and proceeds to move in with him.
