Magical Shenanigans – Day 7 – 9 and Beyond – Duochanfan – Complete
Buck was happy living in denial of his feelings for his best friend. But everything turned on its head when his adoptive father, Draco Malfoy, turned up on his doorstep with a three-year-old version of his dad, Harry Potter, in his arms. With instructions to look after Harry Potter, while Draco goes and solves who did it, and how to reverse it.

Part Six: Ascendancy by Ladyholder
“My mother has been placed in her safehouse,” Draco reported as he walked into the suite they had been given. “I know she said she’s okay with this, but was she really?” Hermione asked. “Yes, she’s upset at the need, but accepting the necessity,” Draco said.
The Light That Leads You Home – Twelve (compelte) – DizzyDrea
Breakfast had been a surreal affair. Meeting Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy would never not be weird, but to learn that he wasn’t a Death Eater anymore had been shocking. Petunia Evans had been a pleasant surprise, and the two of them seemed to hit it off well. It helped that she was mostly Muggle, so she understood his struggles as he entered the wizarding world.
The Light That Leads You Home – Eleven – DizzyDrea
It had taken far longer than Tony was strictly comfortable with to be looked over by Healer Trueheart. She’d tutted over him as the diagnostic spells ran and huffed and muttered as she prepared the treatment plan for him. Tony got the distinct impression that there’d be hell to pay if he didn’t follow it to the letter.

Part Eight: Guess, You Where Right All Along – By Mykki
Sirius Black had always been viewed as a rebel, joining Gryffindor, choosing light over dark, friends over family, ignoring the suspicious looks and silent judgment. He thought he’d turned his back on his family, on them all, until the old family house elf appears one night, the family magic working through him to bring Sirius home. Sirius saves his brother and his family, wins the war, but keeps the secret that allows it at the expense of his friends and their acceptance. James, a man he’d thought would always have his back, turns away in disgust and hate, barely refraining from igniting a blood feud. Harry Potter grew up with his parents and siblings, yet he always felt judged, accepted only because of his fame, which enhanced his father’s image. Finding old photos of the Marauders, Harry becomes fascinated with the story of Sirius Black, and unconsciously follows in the path of a rebel, not realizing what awaits him years later….
Part Five: Ascendancy by Ladyholder
“Do you think there’s a manual for how to do this bloody job I’ve taken on?” “Kid, there wasn’t in my day, and I was the last king Magical Britain had. I’m going to say that I’m about as close to one as you’re going to get,” Arthur said cheerfully. “Bugger,” Harry muttered.

Title To Be Determined – Post 3 – Writing Hitsuzen
Dr. John Watson arrived on the Wayne family doorstep almost two hours early with an over-large suitcase, bags under his eyes, and a sleepy child on his shoulder. The Waynes already knew about the undercover detective on his phone and the political grandmaster stalking the cameras, but they didn’t realize the biggest threat to their sanity was the Watsons themselves. OR Alfred asks his nephew and great-grandniece to visit and help out around the manor while he’s recovering from surgery and Sherlock is on a mission for Mycroft. Since John already knows about the Bats, he thinks it’s a good way to keep John occupied and his second family distracted until he’s on his feet again. Everyone else is wondering exactly what is swimming in the Pennyworth genes, because WTF?
The Guardian – Prologue – Jilly James
Every Jedi deemed old enough and in safe circumstances was simultaneously given a vision by the Force. The Force itself was attempting to show that one was always called. For thousands of years, the duty of the one called had been clear, and the Guardian had fulfilled their purpose. As the influence of the dark grew, the Order ceased to understand the calling of the Guardian. Some Guardians stood their post for mere moments before falling away. As all the Jedi watched, the Force had none suitable left to call upon except a child. And then the last Guardian fell.
