    Summary

    When he’s ten, Orion recognizes Slytherin’s locket in the drawing room, lost amongst other nicknacks and cursed items, knowing better than to touch it.

    He stares for a long while, wondering how he could’ve forgotten, before turning on his heel.

    He remembers the story. How can he not? But it’s fragmented and jumbled in his head, blurring with what he knows of this life and the details he does recall don’t concern him.

    There’s only so much one can remember about a book read a lifetime ago.

    Orion has no interest in getting involved.

    He’s got a life. A name. A duty to his family.

    Summary

    [SECOND INSTALMENT OF THE 'THE FANCIFUL PROVIDENCE OF DEATH' TRILOGY]
    [PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS 'CREATURE OF WINTER']

    Death thought that he had managed to avert the crisis rather well, all things considered. Harry Potter was dead, sure, but the boy's lack of a beating heart was hardly that much of a issue in the greater scheme of things. Really, it was Death's opinion that his master had been improved upon in death, now that he was without pesky things like a heartbeat or blood.

    Though, it certainly brought in a great deal of questions regarding the boy's mortality when he got up every morning to eat breakfast.

    Summary

    Oxford Languages defines briar as “any of a number of prickly scrambling shrubs, especially the sweetbrier and other wild roses.”

    ***

    Briar Theodore Evans was born the 30th of January, 1960 at 8:32 pm. A whole 6 minutes before Lily Jane Evans, who followed at precisely 8:38 pm. This wasn’t how it was supposed to happen. At least, it’s not how Briar remembered it happening when he read the books. Not that there was much he could remember about Harry Potter’s parents anymore. It had been years and they were such a small part. . .

    Or

    Briar may’ve come preloaded with the memories of a 23 year old—who once held a close to encyclopedic knowledge of the Harry Potter Series—but that does little to actually help him become powerful enough to fight Voldemort. He’s only capable of so much while stuck with a child’s brain and forced to grow up in 1960s & 70s Cokeworth England. Not to mention his less than ideal socio-political positions in, not just one, but two new worlds.

    Struggling to gain enough power and knowledge to save Lily, Briar fights to reach his only life goal.

    If only other people would stop distracting him. . .

    Summary

    The whole Umbridge thing makes her want to scream, just a wee bit. It’s seventh year, NEWTs are fast approaching, and she’s not kept a low profile for her entire Hogwarts tenure just to fail her exams horrifically.

     

    A semi/si-oc who wants nothing to do with the plot, like, ever.

    Summary

    He was reincarnated into a stereotypical shoujo manga with magic and fantastical creatures— not as any of the main cast, but the villain's butler, a kindhearted but loyal to a fault beastkin who fought to his death to let his abusive master escape.

    Unlike the original, however, he was not kind, nor was he loyal. He is not above killing, stealing, and lying, and he did not care if he was despised. To avoid a meaningless, pitiful death, he would even scheme his way to escape fate.

    Upon meeting the young villain, however, there was a change of plans. In this second life of his, he'll bet everything on the villain, and fulfill what the original couldn't— he will help the villain find the happiness that was so cruelly taken from him- no matter what it takes.

    Lmao this is my attempt to make a ‘not completely garbage’ work out of the reincarnation trope wish me luck :P
