[Diver!AU; Creature!AU] Viktor was assigned the task to guard the clan's prized jewel. It's a boring job, until it isn't. Warning for some spilling of blood, and implied abuse
[Adventurer!AU] Septimus generally tried not to accept quests for magical beasts, but this time he needed the gold to tide his family over with his soon to be child while he found safer work. But, he isn't the only one with new family.
"I never want to go back there again," Tom whispered, fingers entangled in Harry's as he stared at the blue sky. When Tom is finally released from St. Mungo's, Harry's (released only weeks earlier) is waiting for him, but Tom quickly falls back into old habits. Warnings for mentioned violence, bloodshed, trauma
The clock chimed midnight. Severus stared at his childhood home. His suitcase was packed, propped gently against his leg. He had a wistful urge to look back at his childhood home, hoping that someone, anyone, would somehow wake.
You wanted the peace of acceptance, but were never given it. Perhaps it's just something that will never be for you. Warning for implied witch killings.
Being with Harry was like standing in the gentle, orange light of dawn. Harry's every quirk seemed to warm his eternal night. It broke him, turning and walking away.

Harry has a chronological illness. His anchor has always been Tom. He never realized he was Tom's anchor too. Character death. Loosely inspired by The Time Traveller's Wife
[AU] He didn't want to be normal. He didn't want to do nothing when he knew he could help. He didn't want to be like all those other people who would stand and watch but never help.
Kendra wanted to relieve Ariana of the trauma of her attack. There was only one way she had known of that was available to an untrained witch, but memories were tricky things.
Aquamarine was the colour of the lonely sky. It was the solitude of not even being accepted by her fellow Hufflepuffs. Aquamarine really wasn't her colour.
Upon hearing of the prophecy, Lily had done a ritual, ensuring her son would survive anything the Dark Lord attempted. It really was unfortunate that she hadn't specified the latter.
Taupe was a colour that was easily overlooked, almost invisible, and willing to change to remain so. It was also the colour Horace related to the most, even if he wished for the attention. The colour attracted no attention, and barely any acknowledgement itself.
This was never supposed to happen. He was supposed to be chasing gold until his last breath. He was supposed to disappear like those heroes who left one morning and never returned. He was supposed to die trapped after chasing some new gold pile, like his parents.
"Have you ever considered finding a new hobby?" Roger couldn't tell if it was even a hobby, or just something he did to keep the memory of his parents.
"I hate you!" Those were the last words Harry said to him before he disappeared. And Tom intends to find Harry again, if only to explain. Tom/Harry. Slash, I think? Riddle Era.
Adventure is not outside man, it is within. Just like revolution. It only takes one house elf to rouse a nation, and bring another to its knees. Dobby could quote anger, but really, they had it coming.
The flickering flames and the fireflies were the only stars she could reach tonight, even as the glittering night sky slowly made itself visible to her.
Just a place where I'm going to leave my multichapter ideas that I have a plot for but will deal with eventually. Currently: Bellatrix never goes after the Longbottoms, rather, she leads the Death Eaters in the Dark Lord's stead.
The enchantments that showed your deepest desires were always the most dangerous. Or, in which Neville gives Harry a Sleeping Potion that doesn't quite work as it should.
Heroes didn't exist, and Fleur knows that expecting a hero of Harry Potter would be ridiculous. An attention seeker is what she expected, but didn't get.
Sometimes saving someone means allowing them to save themselves, and letting them go. Because you trust in the person you were trying to save. Possible triggers
If there was one thing Arabella Figg had learnt living in the muggle world, it was that everything had a meaning. Including the page that nearly had her turn into an old popsicle.
There were things that Tom did that Harry didn't approve of, and Harry knew that he always, perhaps foolishly, forgave Tom. But he couldn't continue supporting Tom when his actions would eventually kill people. Slash.
[AU] Hermione didn't really know the world outside, beyond a brief flash of a memory, but she knew anywhere would be better than where she was. Enter Cedric. For Queen Bookworm The First
One regular trip to the bookstore becomes so much more, and has her returning to the bookstore not for the books, but for someone else... Hermione/Lucius. For HP Slash Luv

It took him two tries to pick the wand up with his shaking fingers, but the wand fit perfectly within his palm, and Gellert could feel that this was exactly where he was supposed to be.
Albus had seen his own vision for the Wizarding World in Gellert. They were the equals that had found each other and shared the same vision. The Wizarding World didn't know what awaited them. Slytherin!Dumbledore. Implied death and destruction.
[Royalty!AU] In the end, Salazar had found someone like him, that didn't care what other people said and had her own intelligence. Someone he could pick out of a crowd with ease. Someone he knew would be more of a companion than a trophy wife.
Most, though, end in the same way they began, after coming back a full circle, and finding everything that was sought in what was previously given up for the journey. MoD!Harry. Implied character death.
Time wouldn't help them. It only made the situation more unbearable, it only stripped them of their last remaining shreds of hope, and that had been the very reason she hadn't attacked Hogwarts until now. Dark!Hermione.
[Mythology!AU] Frustrated with how Knowledge and Luxury were behaving, the entities sent them into the mortal realm several times to solve their problems. Until the entities decided to join them...
[Disability!AU] He was the disgrace of the family for something that had never been in his control. Sirius couldn't really say that he was surprised...
There wasn't much choice to this, and little that could be done to change it. An agreement was and agreement and those weren't to be broken, especially not ones this old. Slash.
AU. Ariana sometimes wondered if everything would one day get boring enough to eventually break her promise to Aberforth, but days like these often reminded her otherwise. Vampire!Ariana. mentions Louis/OC
I want to see that monster destroyed for once and for all. I want to make sure that whoever has the courage to defeat him has a better chance at it. I will be forgotten with history, but that doesn't matter. I'd die knowing I did my best.
You had learned the truth of human nature in that empty funeral under a tree. You had learned that humans were selfish creatures that cared only for their own comfort.
The crow had represented true death in its silky black feathered cloak, whispering secrets of the world beyond the living in its croaky cry. A cry you had heard, relentlessly, the entire morning until you believed it ingrained into your very memory.
[Mermaid!AU] She allowed herself one last longing glance before disappearing beneath the angry waves, knowing she would never return to that little piece of nowhere ever again. Unrequited!Lavender/Ron.
You know that horrible feeling of being the only person trapped in a world that was utterly full, yet completely out of the reach of your terribly short arms.
You wondered if this was what it felt like to be utterly shattered, broken in a way you had once considered inconceivable, some horror straight out a nightmare. CharDeath.
The last thing he would see would be Lily's eyes. It no longer mattered that it wasn't truly Lily's but the sudden understanding that filled those eyes helped with the hope of him being forgiven. CharacterDeath.
She could feel the blood oozing from the cut on her cheek, spilling warm red liquid that coursed down to meet the ground. She couldn't feel the stinging pain she knew she should feel from the cut. She couldn't find it within herself to wipe away the blood, or heal the cut. It would take magic that could be used to save someone else
She could remember seeing a fluffy white dog once, a poodle the muggles called it, in the arms of a woman who was very richly dressed. That particular dog had stood out in her mind because of the look of absolute sorrow in its eyes.
She didn't want kindness, she didn't want gentle caring if they could not accept her 'strange' ways. She didn't want someone to be gentle with her physically if they hurt her more than anyone else mentally. Luna/Voldemort. Possible triggers. Oneshot.
He destroyed everything he touched. He watched everything burn until the only thing left was ashes. Usually it was of someone else. Tom/Harry. Oneshot.
They had parted after that, the silence after the brief 'thanks' growing awkward. She honestly did not expect much after that. A singular afternoon could mean nothing and was easily forgotten, but once you knew a person you began seeing them everywhere you went. Cedrella/Septimus. Oneshot.
The boy had blue eyes, and hair that looked as dark as the night sky. His head was tilted curiously to the side as he examined them one by one. He looked mature for his age, as if he knew much more than he should. It almost felt as if he understood their predicament. He couldn't, could he? Historical!AU. Oneshot.
Uncle Sev was always working on some potion or the other, and was never not busy with them but Draco liked the cool atmosphere of the potions lab. It was also the only time Draco ever saw his godfather relax a little bit, but only in the moments before Uncle Sev realized Draco was watching him. Oneshot.
Most other people saw him as the boy who had lost his brother, they hadn't seen that he had been searching for some kind of closure. He had been looking for someone who would listen to him, even if he had not known that himself. Oneshot.
Her marriage was more important than her, and perhaps her happiness could be sacrificed for that because her first loyalty was always to her family. It always had been and always would be. Oneshot. Onesided!Cygnus/Druella. Challenge fic.
Harry has grown up knowing that he was adopted. A couple days before his fifteenth birthday, a strange man visits Harry house telling him many things that are difficult to believe. Finding out that his aunts and uncle knew of the wizarding world only sealed his entry into it. Grey!Harry Manipulative!Dumbledore.
