Summary
Sirius Black never expected to find Draco Malfoy on his doorstep, claiming that Harry Potter was missing.
Harry Potter is fine. He says so himself.
Draco Malfoy does not. Sirius Black eventually understands why.
A quiet psychological horror about love, routine, and how easily harm can look like care.

Summary
As part of his penance program after the war, Draco returns to Hogwarts to retake seventh year. The Ministry is not at all kind (why would they be), his professors seem to both loathe and pity him, he's anxious all the time, and Harry Potter will always be a thorn in his side. Even if Potter is pretty okay at tutoring. Honestly, Harry is just trying to not make things worse.
A story of PTSD, recovery, and redemption, with a touch of dark magic and curses.

Summary
Harry balled his hands at his sides. He wished he hadn’t come. He wished he’d never listened to O’Cannon’s show. But more than anything, he wished Draco wasn’t six feet away, treating Harry like an older version of himself, one that Draco had never cared for. Never loved.
“But you didn’t know that’s what would happen, Malfoy. And if something had happened to Teddy, where would you be? Back in Paris avoiding the fallout, as usual.”

Summary
AU. Harry accidentally Apparates to an empty Grimmauld Place when he’s nine instead of to the top of the school roof when he escapes Dudley’s gang. The house is empty except for portraits and sometimes a speaking wooden face, and Harry has to kill his own food, and there’s something nasty in the cellars, and some of the portraits are mad. But this is still a vast improvement over the Dursleys.

Summary
AU. Harry knows there are both advantages and disadvantages to being the twin of Ian Potter, the Boy-Who-Lived, who defeated Voldemort three years ago. Harry never anticipated that one of the disadvantages would be Lucius Malfoy offering him a formal courtship—and his brother insisting he has to accept, to spy on Malfoy and see what he’s been up to since the war ended.
