Summary
There is a world where a prophecy goes unheard. A world where a boy is never orphaned, where he grows up safe and loved, rather than in a cupboard under the stairs.
But in that world, Harry Potter died in 1991—killed in what became known as the Hogwarts Express Massacre, along with every child who was supposed to attend Hogwarts that year. The war did not end, but it shifted, forcing both sides to set aside their differences against two common enemies: Gellert Grindelwald and Albus Dumbledore.
Seven years later, during a memorial for the children lost that day, the dead return. But not as ghosts. They are flesh and blood. They are seven years older and ripped from a world that's only just beginning to recover from its own war.
And the families who mourned them must now face the mirrors of the children they lost—and the strangers they’ve become.

Summary
"Part of him, the Cadmus part, says that it isn't logical for for them to be clawed and rotted and gone. He knows, logically he knows, that they were alright. But another part of him can't stop worrying, can't stop asking "what if?"'s, and thats the part of him that won't let him go back to bed, the part of him that gnaws at his stomach. That part of him wouldn't let him be.
Maybe that was the Superman part of him."
Superboy has nightmares about his family, sometimes.

Summary
Kara doesn’t have a problem with Conner, exactly, but they don’t have as much in common as everyone assumes. She’s lived two lifetimes on two different planets and he’s just a baby by comparison. He's borderline boisterous, happily roughhouses with his superhero friends like a kid is supposed to, where she somehow walked into the expectation that she acts like an adult. He treats his superpowers like a given, a birthright, when she sometimes, even years later, feels like she’s still adjusting to them.
He doesn’t know anything about Krypton.
