Summary
Does knowing your fate change it? Is the future set in stone or do we chose our path? How would knowing details of your destiny influence the decisions you make?
Or:
What might have happened if Merlin never learned of his destiny, and therefore had to think for himself instead of following the advice of a morally ambiguous dragon.

Summary
‘“You can’t go alone Harry,” Hermione said, trying to lift herself to her feet but giving up with a squeak, “You need help!”
“No,” Harry said firmly, “This is my decision to run off to try and save Sirius, no one else’s - and you need help Hermione! Look at your ankle!”
“How are you even getting there?” Ron demanded, “'Cause if you want to floo, it looks like we both need to go back up to the castle,” he cried triumphantly.
The answer to his question came in the form of a sudden insistent tugging at the sleeve of Harry’s robe. He flinched back, and looked down to find the skeletal head of doe-eyed Thestral following the path of his hand in an attempt to lick off the blood that coated his arm. Harry froze for a minute, then grinned. He knew exactly how he was getting to London.’—
When Harry made the choice to leave his friends behind, and rescue Sirius from the Department of Mysteries on his own, he had never imagined what the consequences might be.

Summary
Harry has a crush, Molly wants Draco to come over for dinner, and Ron has to send the invitation. What could go wrong?
Dear Weasel,
You do remember we learnt a spell in third year that lets me see everything you scratched out, do you not?
I’ll reply to your mother separately, but I’ll be there—if only to see if you’re telling the truth about the drool.Sincerely,

Summary
Harry is full of confidence as he enters the French Ministry on a sunny June morning. He's prepared for this meeting. Overprepared, in fact. Ready for any question they can throw at him. Primed for success.
But as it turns out, there’s one thing Harry couldn’t prepare for: his interpreter. The person assigned to whisper in his ear all week; the distractingly sexy bastard with a smirking mouth and clever tongue.
Apparently, Harry's mission this week isn't just to bring the Quidditch World Cup home to England; it's to do it without falling in love with Draco bloody Malfoy.
Or
Harry falls in love in Paris.

Summary
Eight years after the war, Harry is an auror, and he is a drunk. An ordinary stop at Malfoy Manor, to dismiss Draco from his probation, reveals a disturbing secret: Draco has obliviated himself, and he has no memory of who he is.
Harry becomes determined to fix him, and together they help untangle each other from their shared web of trauma and grief.
“It was his birthday yesterday. I got him a pair of Gouldian finches—he was so excited. You know, he used to hate birds? The peacocks terrified him when he was small.” Narcissa sniffled and turned back to Harry. “Twenty-six years old … and he can’t be left alone for ten minutes.”“What happened to him?”
Narcissa took a sip of her tea; she pursed her lips and blew on the cup’s steaming surface.
“Draco tried to obliviate himself, Harry—last year on Christmas.”
