    Summary

    “Won’t your silk trousers be ruined in the wet sand?” Potter asked after several silent moments, as if he’d been trying to decide on what to say after weeks of not talking again.

    “They’re wool, actually,” Draco said simply, moving his leg closer to Potter to let him see for himself. The Gryffindor was obviously in distress and maybe even some pain, and if taking it out on Draco right now helped him, Draco would let him. Maybe he really did have a crush on the poor bastard. “I’m sorry.”

    “What?” Potter’s voice sounded less venomous now.

    “That you got picked,” Draco explained, “I can’t believe they’re making you participate. And I honestly hope you don’t die.”

    Potter watched him in confusion, “You don’t think I put my name in?”

    Draco laughed and kept looking ahead, “You would rather eat slugs.”

     

    Or: Draco Malfoy grew up during the summer of '94 and Harry Potter is a sucker for forgiving people.

    Summary

    “Did Lady Malfoy say anything about the letters?” asked Ron.

    Harry shook his head. “She never got them. And when I asked Lady Gaunt if she had anything to do with that, she lied right to my face.”

    “Gaunt himself must be involved in this, too, or else the Malfoys wouldn’t be treading so carefully,” reasoned Hermione. “I mean, if Lady Malfoy’s secretly buying ward-bypassing artefacts…”

    “That could mean she’s got a plan to get her family out of whatever the Gaunts have trapped them in,” finished Harry triumphantly. He held up the courting comb, taking in the defiant sparkle of the rubies. For the first time since Draco’s last letter to him, he knew what he had to do.

    “I have to help them. I have to get the Malfoys out of the Circle, once and for all.”

    All Lord Harry Potter wants to do this year is pursue his courtship of Heir Draco Malfoy. However, with Lord Marvolo Gaunt as Minister for Magic, life in New Avalon has gone out of the frying pan and into the fire. As the dangers of the outside world finally seep into Hogwarts’ halls, Harry must seize his chance to understand Lord Gaunt’s past… and find out why the fates of his House and Gaunt’s are so inextricably entwined.

    Summary

    All it takes is one look in a mirror and an ill-advised attempt to shatter it, before an embittered Draco Malfoy fresh out of Azkaban is sent back into his body on the day he gets his Hogwarts letter.

    Suddenly, Draco has an unwanted second chance, with a Sorting Hat that doesn't know what to do with him, a certain Muggleborn who won't leave his study table alone, and green eyes he just can't get out of his head. And then there's his new wand, whose choice of him could just mark him as every bit as dark a wizard as his name means he should be.
