    Summary

    Summary

    Draco Malfoy ceased to exist by the beginning of autumn of eighth year. After his demise, Harry receives the letters addressed to him. As he reads them, he finds himself falling in love with the lines written by this new, undiscovered side of Draco Malfoy. The only appropriate closure, Harry realises, is this: to go back and fix everything.

    Summary

    The Wizarding World believed Harry James Potter was the Chosen One. But Draco Lucius Malfoy knew better. HE was the true Chosen One. After all, he had been the one chosen — not for glory, but for suffering.

    He was chosen to wear the Dark Mark, the youngest wizard ever forced into the Dark Lord’s ranks.
    He was chosen to take the blame when You-Know-Who’s plans fell apart.
    And he was chosen to be the one left behind, over and over again.

    So yes, Draco Malfoy was the true Chosen One. The world just didn’t realize it.

    Now, two years after the war, he had four children depending on him. Orphans, like him, abandoned by a world that wanted to forget. Their parents were executed, just like his. And whether he was ready or not, it was up to Draco to keep them safe.

    Summary

    Harry is lost and broken after the war. He has gone to countless funerals, broken up with Ginny, moved back into Grimmauld Place—which feels darker and dirtier than ever before despite how much he tries to fix it. He feels lonely and desperate, but he won’t ask for help, and he still can’t cry.

    When he agreed to help the Aurors at Malfoy Manor over the summer, he thought that he would be breaking dark curses. Harry never thought that he would actually spend his days sorting out dusty books with Draco Malfoy, or teaching him how to cook.

    Little by little, as they begin to navigate their life post-war, Harry and Draco become intimate…in more ways than Harry could have ever expected.

    Summary

    Hardworking Law student Drake Beddingfield and Sultry sex cam worker Dee.

    Summary

    Draco accidentally triggers a curse that pulls him into tiny glimpses of different universes. This would all be fine—what does it matter if he semi-regularly flaunts the laws of space and time? Except that in every universe, in every iteration of every possible world, Harry Potter is in love with him.

    It goes as well as one might expect.

    Summary

    In the wake of Voldemort’s defeat, as the lines between justice and vengeance begin to blur across the magical community, Draco returns for his eighth and final year at Hogwarts under the terms and conditions of his probation. With nothing left but determination and a sneer, Draco resolves to pass his NEWTs and make a future for himself that he’ll never be ashamed of. Then students start taking their own revenge, the Weasel is set to go off at any moment, and an angry, haunted Potter begins stalking him again. In all of the madness of nightmares and dueling rooms, auras and side effects, Patronus charms and starry lights, Draco finally learns that the only thing more difficult than facing who you’ve become, is becoming who you are.

    Summary

    The Wizengamot in its wisdom determined at his trial that Draco ought to return to Hogwarts to scrape together a few NEWTs and perhaps even a sense of community and fellow feeling amongst all the other children, rather ragged round the edges--and a good deal in the middle--battered and burnt and even orphaned in the war. And with a choice between the school he had outgrown and a cosy cell in Azkaban, Draco plumped for school.

    Draco returns to Hogwarts for 8th year and finds himself a pariah. To his surprise, Harry Potter is the only person who seems to want anything to do with him.

    Summary

    Life hasn't been easy for Draco since the end of the war. People aren't quick to forgive, job opportunities are few and far between, and no one wants to give him a second chance. The only ray of light in his dark existence is Scorpius and the baby he carries. When even that is in danger, and it feels like the darkness is finally closing in on him, Draco's past catches up with him once again. But this time it may not be quite so bleak.

    Summary

    Draco shifts his head as he turns to look at Scorpius, his cheek touching the pillow. "Did you know that…" He pauses, his throat convulsing, and it sounds audible in the silence, besides Michael's steady, even breathing from the other bedroom.

    Scorpius is staring back at him, in wait of something new to learn, a beautiful and intelligent child. He has Draco's mind. He has Draco's eyes and nose and mouth and hair. He is his. All his. All he has of Michael are his wild curls and the green of his eyes, and sometimes he looks into them and imagines that they aren't Michael's, but someone else's.

    Draco leans his head closer, biting the quiver out of his lips before he breathes a laden and shuddering exhale, and he whispers, "You are my star in a big black sky."

    Summary

    After a bad day at the office led to his sudden death, Draco Malfoy woke up as a ghost in a strange flat in London. While waking up in a weird place was bad, being unable to leave was worse; the fact that he was trapped in Weasley's dingy flat was simply catastrophic.

    But if Draco had any hope of going home, he needed help, and unfortunately, Weasley was his only option.

    Summary

    It's a few months after the war, and Harry travels all the way to Azkaban to get Draco Malfoy out of prison. Malfoy might have the Dark Mark on his arm, but he doesn't deserve to be locked up, thank you very much.

    As a trade-off, Malfoy helps Harry study for his NEWTs, but the process isn't easy. Malfoy is hot now, and Harry struggles concentrating around him.

    Draco struggles concentrating around Potter, too. And he's beginning to not feel like himself, like something about his magic is fundamentally changing. He can no longer control himself around Potter, but he hasn't a clue what to do about it.
