    Summary

    There was so much want inside of Devlin Potter — stacked up, and shoved into crevices, and buried under layers of other things to keep it hidden. Every moment of the day he could smell it in his blood, taste it in his saliva, and feel it in his pulse. If he took it all down, if he took it all out, if he unburied it all — it would be enough for an avalanche. So he stepped away from it within himself, as he always did.

    Nearly three years after Voldemort kidnapped Harry's son and sent his body back, Harry discovers he has actually been alive the entire time. Together with a werewolf Death Eater, they devise a plan to rescue the boy, but getting him back is only the beginning.

    A tense story about loss and return, intermingled with the complexity of blood, love, and choice.

    If you enjoy stories that look at alternative paths for young Tom Riddle, you may enjoy this. There is nothing overtly graphic, but I don't shy away from the realities of war and trauma.

    Summary

    "Do you know what they mean when they talk about love?" Harry says, tears dried up.
    "Of course," Draco says, "My parents love me."
    Harry looks at Draco, "What is it like?"
    "It just is," Draco feels another chill. His breath hitches.
    "But why would they?"
    "They're my parents. And as long as I'm a good heir, they'll love me," Draco tilts his head away from Harry.
    "So, love is conditional."
    Draco's breath feels even now, "Yes, it is."
    "I guess Sirius would have never loved me if he weren't my godfather," Harry's expression becomes slack. "If I weren't the son of his friends, I would have never known anybody could love me. If I weren't the Boy-Who-Lived, nobody would even care about me. Ron, Hermione, Dumbledore, and the whole Order wouldn't care. Maybe you can only be loved if you check all the right boxes." Harry takes a huge sigh, "How can I ever do that?"

    Or
    Harry and Draco meet on the Astrology Tower balcony after the Department of Mysteries battle, striking a bond that can never be fulfilled.

    Summary

    Harry froze up at the sound of Sirius' voice, finding it too close for comfort.
    "Y'know, you remind me of someone, I just don't know who." The boy said, causing Harry to nervously chuckle.
    "Oh, yeah, I uh, I wonder who.." Harry trailed off, pushing his glasses up at the same time as one very alive and very young James Potter.
    'How cheesy,' Harry thought.

    Summary

    “Har-Harry, don't freak out will you…” He looked at her and grabbed the paper that lay in front of him. He never signed up for The Daily Prophet. So why was he given one? The title read, ‘The Boy Savior Abused?’ his blood ran cold, and his arms shook. What? He looked up and found several eyes staring at him. People he didn't know looked and wondered if what was said was true. He ignored their stares and decided it was best to continue reading.
