    Summary

    Greengrass looked him up and down before grimacing.” What on earth are you wearing?” she gasped.

    Harry looked down at himself at his red Converse with duct tape holding them together, his ratty jeans barely being held up by a spare piece of cord he’d nicked from a lost and found bin, and a tee shirt that was once white and blue but was so stained, Dudley was a horribly messy eater, that it was more of a tan and blue at this point. He grimaced.

    “Oh,” he sighed, “they’re my cousin's hand-me-downs.”

    “Well why don't you buy new clothes?” she sounded appalled, Harry understood why.

    “Hagrid and Mrs.Weasley both told me to only buy the bare essentials.”

    “Shoes without holes and clothes that fit are essentials!” Greengrass insisted.

     

    A chance encounter with a Slytherin in Diagon Alley may change the course of the entirety of wizarding Britain.

    also, nothing belongs to me but F JKR so whatever.

    Summary

    After the Dementors attacked him and Harry, Dudley finds himself questioning the carefully built reality around him.

    It was as if a bucket of ice water had been dumped over his head and someone with a megaphone was yelling "Do you understand NOW, Dipshit?" right into his ear.

    Armed with a lifetime of memories and a house full of evidence, Dudley vows to right the wrongs done to his cousin.

    If they change the wizarding world along the way, well, that's another thing entirely.

    Summary

    “Today, exactly one year ago, the new history of Erebor began,” Thorin was saying, making Bilbo furrow his brow as he wondered how a feast less than a year old could be considered a tradition for the dwarrows. Had Thorin made fun of the hobbits’ views on food, inventing an excuse to justify a banquet? Bilbo would have words with the foolish king. “Exactly one year ago, in fact, a Maiar placed a rune on the door of a hobbit, sending the dwarrows of my Company to his doorstep.”

    Bilbo blinked, feeling a lump form in his throat as he realised that Thorin was looking him straight in the eye.

    “I am grateful that the elves and men could join us in celebrating the Gabil San Bâhel,” Thorin bowed his head towards Thranduil and Bard, “and I am deeply grateful that he himself is still here after a year, not only reclaiming the home from a dragon, but also making it worthy of being called home.”
