    Summary

    Ever wondered what the Sacred Twenty-Eight were actually doing before Voldemort showed up and made being pure-blood everyone's full-time job? Yeah, me too.

    This is a deep-dive into the backstories, cultural roots, old money jobs, magical specialties, and messy family history of all 28 “most noble” wizarding families. Some were Norman merchants, some were Highland warlocks, some were Middle Eastern scholars, and some were just really good at political scheming and pretending to be richer than they were.

    Basically: this is what JKR could have given us if she liked worldbuilding as much as she liked inventing snakes.

    Come for the wizarding anthropology, stay for the dark rituals, passive-aggressive cousin feuds, and that one family who definitely sold magical lingerie in 15th century France.

    The Sacred Twenty-Eight—like you've never seen them before.

    Summary

    It’s May 1979 and the Order has just apprehended a pair of mysterious wizards who look remarkably like a Potter and a Malfoy. Naturally, James Potter and Sirius Black are called in to identify the strangely familiar strangers and determine their backgrounds and loyalties.

    (This would be a lot easier if their captives weren’t convinced everyone they talk to is dead. It would also be easier if they didn’t spend half their bloody time bickering.)

    Summary

    AU. Fleamont Potter's wife managed to save him from the dragonpox, and he woke from a long coma to find that everyone thought all the Potters, including his grandson Harry, long dead. But Harry is alive, hidden with the Dursleys...and Fleamont gets him back, adopts him, and does everything in his power to keep him safe.

    There is no law he won't break. There is no rage he won't feel.
