Summary
Living with the basilisk is going to take some adjusting, like learning to navigate hidden tunnels, keep himself secret, and figure out how to use magic (easier said than done). The castle and forest are full of dangers, and as Harry tries to fit into a world of elves, ghosts, and talking portraits, he'll find out if he's up to the challenge.

Summary
"He ducked, not fast enough, and the spikes caught on his clothes and yanked him off his Firebolt. He tumbled down the Horntail’s back, narrowly avoiding a frankly embarrassing fall to the death. The golden egg landed on the rocks below, bouncing off them and out of sight with a resounding clatter. Harry dove after it, desperate to reach it and be done with this entire debacle. Most of all, he wanted that dragon not to look at him like that anymore, lest he really threw up—or cried. "

Summary
This is a series about Harry losing his eyesight in a violent encounter with the Carrows, and Draco brewing him potions to restore his sight. Except that Draco is doing it because he wants his rival back, and not out of love. Harry is deeply fucked-up about his blindness, not gracious and accepting. Do not try this at home.

Summary
We’re all shapeshifters. It happens rarely, and it happens for a reason. Sometimes the shape you take reflects the person that you are. – Derek Hale, Season 2 Episode 5
“I didn’t shoot him if that’s what you’re worried about,” said Stiles’ dad. Then he smiled wryly. “Though I did push him against the wall and threaten to strangle him with my bare hands.”
Stiles gaped at his dad, because Derek…was Derek. And the Stilinski men weren’t exactly buff. They were built more slender and agile, though Stiles was still waiting for the agile part to kick in.
