Summary
Upon hearing the prophecy, Lily Potter chooses differently. She brokers a deal with her once-enemy, and instead of an equal, her son is marked as something else entirely. Now raised under Lord Voldemort’s reign, Harry Potter grows up with doctrine in his ears and a leash at his throat, forced into a careful charade of false obedience. He thinks he can maintain the lie—until he chances upon a locket in the dusty depths of Grimmauld. It’s awake, aware, and Harry just so happens to yank the soul inside free from its prison.

Summary
Merlin loses Freya and is off-kilter for a while. When a monster appears he misses a crucial piece of information which Prince Arthur is able to uncover. Things seem to go south when Merlin's magic is revealed. But as the stakes change with the arrival of King Galorian, Arthur has a change of heart. He begins to break away from his father's reign and acknowledges magic for what it is. Merlin's priority remains his devotion to Arthur, and he will do everything to prove it. The five kings visit Camelot and decide the political future, while Merlin and Arthur try to work out who is trying to destroy it all.

Bookmarker's Notes
Truly epic. The sheer complexity of the characters and the storylines. So much original thought went into this, and yet still managed to capture the essence of the characters you would grow to love in the show.
+ Extra points for the rightful richness given to morganas character and maintaining her depth and giving her a incredibly believable storyline without dismissing or casting aside certain parts of her character.
+ Merlin learning the truth of prophecy early on
+ Kilgharrah getting proven wrong (but not bashed, even if he low-key deserves it)

Dreams and Darkness Collide by Epic Solemnity (Dark_Cyan_Star)
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
14 Aug 2016
Tags
Summary
Though he was raised without the expectation of saving the world, Harry still possesses a savior complex. Only, it's so dark and twistedly immoral that he created an alter ego to practice vigilantism. His second identity makes a name for himself and immediately ensnares Minister Riddle's complete and obsessive attention. A game of cat and mouse begins, and morals are questioned.

Summary
Lavender takes one step forward and – just like the snap of a finger, the blink of an eye, the drop of a pebble – Hogwarts is left behind. There's no jump, no flashes of light, no whirlwinds of disconnected images. Just one little step; behind stood her war and in front stands 1947. "Huh," she says to herself, "didn't see this in the tea leaves."

the one with the arranged marriage by bustlingcrowds
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
15 Oct 2022

Summary
Harry Potter has little to no hope of ending Lord Voldemort. And according to the prophecy, she's the only one who can.
When an opportunity arises in which she can settle the matter that doesn't involve killing him or being killed—Harry seizes it.
A marriage bond is the only loophole they can think of that could get both of them out of the prophecy. It's binding magic is ancient and powerful. Powerful enough to override that little line that said 'either must die at the hand of the other'. Now, neither can harm the other.
Besides, it's not like she imagined there would ever be a happily ever after for her where she marries someone she loves and has a family. The costs of this war are too great and her guilty conscience won't let her sit around any longer.

Summary
It was dark and painful back there in the corners of her mind, in that gaping hole at the back of her head that evidently led to his. Harry found strength in it. For that was how far she could fall.
She saw what Voldemort did to his followers…the pain and torment. The fear.
How he received a perverted version of respect from all his followers. They cowered from his gaze. Took his word without a moment’s hesitation.
And Harry wanted.
---
“Then what can Lord Voldemort give you?” He brushed her fringe aside, looking at the weeping scar. “What morsel can he give for you to sharpen your teeth on?”
There was blood in her eyes and what-kind-of-perversion in her veins, but she wanted him. All of him. His brain, his skills. She wanted to get under his skin and eat her way out.

Summary
"Arthur used to think he knew everything about his servant, and to an extent he still did. As shocked as he had been about the incident, this wasn’t exactly something that was unlike Merlin. It was dumb and it came from a place of kindness with a total disregard of himself. The action itself, Arthur understood. What he didn’t understand was why Merlin had kept it to himself."
In which Arthur slowly unravels the mystery that is Merlin, and begins to realize just how much he doesn't know.
