    Summary

    In the middle of their second year, Draco and Harry discover they're soulmates and do their best to keep it a secret from everyone.

    Their best isn't perfect.

    ~

    “Are you trying to get killed, Potter?” Malfoy drawls, stalking forward. Quick as a serpent himself, he reaches out and grabs the snake just below the head. It thrashes in his grip, but is no longer able to bite anyone. “This is a poisonous snake, and I doubt anyone brought a bezoar with them.”

    Harry glares. He opens his mouth, and feels the beginning the snake’s language pass his lips, and this isn’t what he wants, what’s the point of insulting Malfoy if he can’t understand him –

    Malfoy’s eyes widen. He slaps his hand over Harry’s mouth, “Potter, what the hell–”

    Summary

    Children’s hair sometimes changes color as you grow. When he’s young enough for it not to be unusual, but old enough to know he’ll get in trouble for doing something ‘freakish’ again, Harry's hair goes from his father's dark locks to his mother's bright, most-likely-magical red hair.

    It changes everything about who he identifies with, who he wants to grow up to be, and who he thinks he is. Instead of having James Potter as his idol, Lily turns out to be a much better influence.
    So instead of seeing a scruffy, most-likely-muggleborn boy standing beside him in Madam Malkin's before their first year, Draco only has eyes for the scarlet-haired, green-eyed creature who just walked into his life. Not that Harry will ever notice, given he's trying to simply survive Hogwarts.

    Summary

    “Harry Potter.”

    The cold burrowed into his flesh; the scent of cloying death and molding earth clogged his senses.

    “The Boy Who Lived.”

    A strange sense of unimaginable loss and disappointment rose inside of Harry. That brilliant, yet cruel boy could’ve been so much more if he’d not stepped down this bloodied path.

    Terrible, but great. He pitied this creature.

    “Come to die.”

    Harry Potter faced the flash of green light with the bravery of a Gryffindor and the broken heart of a Hufflepuff.


    When Death gives Harry a third option, one that can save everyone he ever cared about, he takes it unflinchingly. Even when that means doing the impossible: falling in love with the enemy, Tom Riddle.

    Summary

    “Hello dickhead,” hisses Nagini. "I am here to report your location and abysmally boring daily life back to Tom so he can find a way to kill you faster and more painfully. At least then he’ll give me more rabbits, because hunting is a pain in the arse and those nimble little pieces of shit are bloody tiring to catch.”

    Harry stops weeding Aunt Petunia’s lawn in favour of staring at the giant python in the garden hedge next to him.

     

    It’s the holidays after the Triwizard Tournament, Nagini hates this whole spy business, and Harry makes an unexpected friend.
