Summary
Boy grew up knowing that he was different. He grew up knowing he was special, and people would rue the day they crossed him again. Boy knew that people were scared of him when he walked past, and he revelled in it. That’s why it just made sense when he was approached by a strange old man, with a large beard and a sharp grin
*54 years later*
Boy grew up knowing that he was different. He grew up knowing he was a freak, and people would always be there to push him down. Boy knew that people were dangerous, he knew deep down they could only mean trouble. That’s why it just didn’t make sense when he was approached by a strange old man, with a large beard and a sharp grinhey everyone, this is my first time writing any fanfiction and therefore will probably be all over the place.
this story will be split in two kind of ways, we will be talking about one character for ages, then another. eventually they will meet and then our story will truly begin.
THIS IS A SLOW BURN
there will be so, so, so many things happening before our characters even meet, but there will be mentions of the other in some chapters.hope you enjoy!

Summary
Doctor Strange saw 14,000,605 possible futures in the fight against Thanos, but he found only one way to win. If he had stayed in that time loop for just a tiny bit longer—maybe a millisecond—he might have discovered another way to succeed. This option was less likely than Tony Stark’s brave self-sacrifice, which ultimately sent him to the underworld. However, Strange did not see the unbeatable strength of Peter Parker.

Summary
“Get back here!”
Harry had never run faster in his life. He wasn’t thinking; his mind was stuck in a loop. Get out, get out, get out. He sprinted down the street. He needed help — he needed help now. He barely made the curve.
Everyone he knew would send him back here if Dumbledore asked them to. The thought was there before he could stop it.
Not the Order.
His feet hurt from how hard they were hitting the ground. His thoughts lagged behind, chasing him too. He didn’t slow down to let them catch up.
——-
One evening, Vernon goes too far.
Harry runs.
He knows he can’t ask the people he knows for help — not about this.
So he runs to the one person he knows would never, under any circumstances, send him back to Dumbledore.

Summary
Quick note: I accidentally used the series summary as the work summary before. It's been corrected now — sorry about that!

Drove off dozen of Dementors.
Survived a tournament designed to break him.And still, he is sent out of the room when the adults begin to decide his future.
An old magical artifact offers him a possibility:
a life in which he is not merely a symbol — but a priority.When a long-forgotten guardianship is activated and political tensions begin to fracture Hogwarts, it isn’t only the balance of power that shifts. It’s Harry’s closest relationships.
Some friendships are built on habit.
Others on choice.And this time, when the doors close —
Harry stays.Series

Summary
Harry looked at him blankly.
“Oh,” Right. “I’m holding out my hand for you to shake,” Draco said, mortified a second time and grabbing Harry’s hand from where it had been hovering near his face and shaking it.
The mortification wasn’t that bad in the face of Harry’s brilliant smile, Draco supposed.
