    Summary

    In the middle of Harry’s fifth year at Hogwars, between Umbridge’s detentions and Snape’s remedial potions, and the stress and the nightmares and the weight of everything on his shoulders - Harry snaps. The only help he finds, comes in the form of a snake coiled inside his soul, guiding him and taking him to a safe place.
    And what if he finds not only the safety he needed, but a new perspective on magic - and love - in the most unexpected of places?

    After all, there’s something to say about knocking, bloody and hurt, on the door of your worst enemy and say: “I didn’t know where else to go.”

    This is a story of revenge, of blood, and a slow descent into darkness. But more importantly, this is the story of two soulmates finding each other.

    Summary

    "...in the event that I, Lily Evans Potter, and my husband, James Potter, become deceased," read Albus, "I do hereby name Severus Snape as sole legal custodian of my son, Harry James Potter, until such a time as he comes of age." He folded his glasses on the table.

    "Fuck," said Severus, with feeling.

    Summary

    Crowley winced and turned around. He squinted at the King of Hell and his two-day stubble and expensive suit and bloody audacity. His Hell-trained survival instincts really didn’t like this.

    That ancient part of him who’s known this man-shaped being since he was a hatchling filed away his escape plan for later, however.

     

    Or: Crowley and Lucifer are siblings, and sure, they’re not exactly on speaking terms now, but that doesn’t stop Lucifer from knocking on Crowley and Aziraphale’s door on a Sunday morning, asking for help. Needless to say, it doesn’t go exactly as planned…

    [Or or: on relationships, the Throne of Hell, absolution, and the universe's most dysfunctional family—maybe—coming to senses.]

    Summary

    Crowley never asked to be a demon. He also never expected to fall hard for an angelic omega either, and yet here he was. As if his life wasn’t damned enough, throw in Armageddon, a rival suitor, and misunderstandings to make it even worse. But Crowley doesn’t believe in losing.
