Summary
It's five years after the war, and Harry is not okay. He hates his job. He hates Robards. He hates Ron's promotions and Hermione's concern.
He chases oblivion in booze and weed and quick dirty fucks, but it's never enough.
Then Draco Malfoy's face comes up on the case board as a murder suspect and Harry is thrown into an investigation that will take him to dark and dangerous places.
The temptations put in front of him will force him to question the line between dreams and reality ... and just which side of that line he wants to walk.

Summary
13 years ago, Cursebreaker Harry James Potter went missing from his home in London, with zero traces or clues about his whereabouts. Draco Malfoy has spent the last 17 years in France, studying and working, and finally he is ready to return to a normal life in wizarding London, with a cushy job as a potions master making medical potions in St. Mungo's. Unfortunately, a normal life is going to have to wait, because the presumed dead Harry Potter has just shown up in his house, not a day older than when he went missing, and not a single memory of where he was, presenting with werewolf attributes and a fervent hunger.

Summary
Harry Potter is exhausted, haunted by the media, and somehow more socially anxious than ever. The war never came, but he’s still stuck in the middle of everything—The Chosen One, The Liar, The Symbol. He’s tired of being looked at. Tired of being looked through.
When eighth year begins, he flees to the Room of Requirement to escape it all. It’s quiet there. Safe. Until it isn’t—until Draco Malfoy shows up. They agree to ignore each other, which goes about as well as you’d expect.
Includes: magical shenanigans, a snake named Thistle, thestral babies, inappropriate uses of Parseltongue, cozy chaos, smutty smut and angsty angst, and two idiots falling in love.

Summary
After the war, the Malfoys escaped Azkaban by the thinnest margins: Narcissa’s lie in the Forbidden Forest, Lucius’s cooperation with the Ministry, and Draco’s youth all became evidence in their favor.
Years later, Draco Malfoy lives quietly, far from the public eye and even farther from forgiveness. He has no need for work, no desire for redemption speeches, and no interest in helping the Ministry that once put his family on trial. He spends his days buried in alchemical scrolls, cursed artifacts, and old magic no respectable wizard wants to understand.
Then former Death Eaters begin dying.
No wounds. No wand signatures. No killers.
Only silver scars beneath the skin, the unmistakable mark of Unbreakable Vows turned lethal.
As Head Auror, Harry Potter is forced to bring in the one person who might understand the magic behind the murders.
But as the bodies pile up and sealed records begin to vanish, Harry realizes the Ministry has been keeping more than evidence locked away.
And Draco Malfoy, for all his silence, may know far more than he is able to say.

Love in the Dark by azraelriego
Fandoms: Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid
06 Mar 2026

Summary
Shane Hollander always had a strategy. He had a strategy for winning the Cup, a strategy for managing the press, and a strategy for keeping his relationship with his rival-turned-boyfriend, Ilya Rozanov, strictly in the dark. He really was good at managing it all… Right up until the moment a medical impossibility turned into a positive pregnancy test, and the only man Shane ever loved asked him to do the one thing he couldn’t: tell the truth.
Five years post-breakup, Shane is technically winning. He has the trophies, the privacy, and their brilliant daughter, Airi. And he is perfectly co-parenting with his ex, Ilya Rozanov. The rules are simple: minimal contact, polite text messages about their daughter, and absolutely no acknowledging about their past.
Until Yuna Hollander decides to intervene. Suddenly, the ocean Shane put between them is gone. Shane’s new strategy is simple: survive seven days with Ilya without falling apart.

frequently, secretly fond of each other. by milominderbinder
Fandoms: Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid
14 May 2026
Tags
Summary
Shrugging one shoulder far more casually than he possibly feels, Ilya says, “I like both. Is secret, okay?”
“Okay,” Hollander says, voice cracking.
He doesn’t say anything else. The air’s so heavy around them that it feels like being in the middle of a scrum, the weight and heat of all those bodies pressing down on you. Danger always feels like hockey; it’s the most dangerous thing Ilya knows, except for this. Everything dangerous in his life involves men’s bodies and just how close he can get to them. Closer than he probably should.
A year after mysteriously dropping out of the 2009 draft, Shane Hollander is signed by the Boston Raiders, right behind Ilya Rozanov. Having the two biggest stars in the league on the same line is great for Boston — but playing alongside their worst rival was never exactly in Shane or Ilya's plans. Especially not when staying away from each other starts to feel just as impossible as getting along.

Summary
Children’s hair sometimes changes color as you grow. When he’s young enough for it not to be unusual, but old enough to know he’ll get in trouble for doing something ‘freakish’ again, Harry's hair goes from his father's dark locks to his mother's bright, most-likely-magical red hair.
It changes everything about who he identifies with, who he wants to grow up to be, and who he thinks he is. Instead of having James Potter as his idol, Lily turns out to be a much better influence.
So instead of seeing a scruffy, most-likely-muggleborn boy standing beside him in Madam Malkin's before their first year, Draco only has eyes for the scarlet-haired, green-eyed creature who just walked into his life. Not that Harry will ever notice, given he's trying to simply survive Hogwarts.Story Discord: https://discord.gg/8b7zt5PBHp
