    Summary

    Shino’s beetles were crawling over Naruto’s arms, more visible than usual as the blond had taken his jacket off and hung it over the back of his chair. It was damaged from Sasuke’s fire again and smelled strongly of smoke. Kiba eyed the beetles like he always did and finally asked the question he’d been keeping in for weeks. “Why are you so comfortable around them?”
    Naruto looked once again baffled. It was a familiar expression for the boy. He looked down at the beetles marching in circles over his skin and then said, “They’re normal, right? His bugs don’t even bite or anything!”
    “They’re normal for me, yes,” Shino said. “My clan are the holders of this particular species of parasitic beetle.”
    Naruto just shrugged, “Whatever, I like your bugs a lot more than mine.”
    Shino cocked his head to the side, “What?” he asked.

    OR
    Naruto's apartment is horrible and unhealthy and Shino realizes just how bad a spot Naruto is in. He can't just stand by and let it continue, can he?

    Summary

    It's summer, 1996, and Harry is angry.

    He lets go of his anger, though! At the same moment the last of the Dursleys falls dead to the ground.

    "Dobby is free," he giggles.

    The aftermath proves more interesting than anyone could have expected.

    (Things escalate quickly, from there.)

    Summary

    Harry Potter was his horcrux.

    After everything that had happened, Voldemort knew he shouldn’t have been surprised by this revelation, by these new turn of unwanted events. But the fact was, he was surprised.

     

    Harry didn’t know how it had come to this. All he knew was that he really didn’t matter to anyone. After hearing Dumbledore say that he had planned to sacrifice him, he really didn’t know what to think or who to trust anymore.

    Voldemort realises Harry is his horcrux at the graveyard, and accordingly changes his plans.
