Summary
AU. Harry isn’t the Boy-Who-Lived, just a lonely orphan who goes to Hogwarts interested in learning Potions and making friends. But his Potions professor hates him, and Harry can make few friends when he has to conceal his snake familiar and his Parseltongue—and that he seems capable of bringing small animal constructs to life. Blaise Zabini is one of the few people invited into Harry’s secrets, a relationship that grows to be more and more important to both of them as the years pass.

Summary
“If only one could root one’s self in here among the grass and stones and do something worth doing” —Gaudy Night, Dorothy L. Sayers
"So, what sort of inquiry takes four people to conduct?" Wen Qing asked, when they were seated.
To her surprise, the others looked to Jiang Cheng, who met her gaze for the first time. He looked sharper than she remembered, as if grief and his change in station had honed his edges.
"The others are here as witnesses. I'm here with a proposal." He took a deep breath and carefully clasped his hands on the table between them.
In the aftermath of the Sunshot Campaign, Jiang Cheng offers the Wens another choice.
