While Harry, Ron, Hermione, Hannibal and Will make their way toward adulthood, they all know they have to tie the loose ends of their childhood. Even if some ends come with a deadly price.A story following the events of The Half-Blood Prince, featuring Murder Husbands in the making

Summary
It's hard to bring balance to the Force when the only method you've seen is your black-cloaked psychic cyborg sorcerer dad with a severe breathing problem throwing an old man down the Death Star reactor shaft. As much as Luke would like to see the not-yet-Emperor dead, he doesn't want to be arrested by his unusually attractive(?) war-hero dad and spend the rest of his indeterminate time in the past dropping Ewok beats in a jail cell. Also Leia would probably kill him. But not before breaking him out of jail.
So when the twins wake up on Tatooine decades in the past, they play it safe. They take over a planet, reconnect with their adoptive and real parents without weirding them out (too much), and accidentally cause the Chancellor perpetual near-death experiences.
Nailed it.

Summary
Obi-Wan Kenobi chooses to truly leave the Jedi Order after he has been brought back to Coruscant from Melida/Daan. The cold, uncertain reception he finds in the Coruscanti temple is simply too horrible to bear, after the year-long warfare he endured. He has not been reinstated as Qui-Gon Jinn’s padawan yet, anyway, and still without a lightsabre.
But, somehow, through a more winding path, he still ends up a Jedi.
A Mandalorian Jedi, to be exact.

Summary
Harry finds his way to the Winter Court of the fae as a child. Chaos ensues.
---
“Well, I suppose I won’t know until someone does manage to strike me down or bind me, will I?”Theo gives him a most exasperated look.
“Well, if I were to postulate… like dread Persephone, she who brings doom, I have eaten of the fruit of Elysium.”
Theo can See it, suddenly, Harry with pomegranate-stained lips and sharp teeth dripping red like blood, red jewels on his tongue, in a crystalline palace with a lavish banquet set, in fields of dewless asphodel.
“And you become that which you eat, you know. Oh, not completely, of course, and I’m no longer bound to Mab. So I share few of the physical weaknesses of the Sidhe. Iron may not bind me, though it does itch most annoyingly, and, I expect, will burn after some time in contact.”
“Good, because unless you deign to stop these rumors, half of Slytherin house will be spangled with cold iron by Yule.”

Summary
In the first instalment of Beyond the Blood Wards, readers are drawn into a world teetering on the edge of chaos, where shadows of the past threaten to consume the fragile peace of the present. At the heart of this tale stands Harry Potter, no longer just the Boy Who Lived, but a powerful young wizard forged by hardship, loss, and relentless determination. Beside him is Severus Snape, a man haunted by regret and redemption, who risks everything for a boy who is so much more than he thought.
This journey is not just a war against dark forces—it is a deeply personal fight for love, forgiveness, and the fragile hope of a better future. As they face betrayal, impossible choices, and moments of fleeting joy, each character must confront their own fears, regrets, and desires.
BtBW is a tale of sorrow and heartbreak, but also one of enduring love, unyielding friendship, and the strength found in shared purpose. It is about sacrifice and the quiet bravery it takes to keep fighting even when the odds are stacked against you.
Pt 3 of Beyond the Blood Wards is essentially porn. All sexual scenes will be placed in there with indicators of when in the story you should read. Note I have made no NSFW scenes for pt 1.

Summary
Sick of the Dursleys and resolved to missing his few friends if it means getting away from the people of the Wizarding World and their nosy whispers, Harry gets the idea to leave it all behind for a while, just a bit, just for a rest. Like a camping trip, except he’ll take enough provisions for a year or so...maybe some plants, seeds and things for a little garden. Maybe some time away from the things that weigh him down will help the constant highs and lows he’s been feeling for a while now. Just a little break.
(Or, the one where Harry says TTFN and takes himself off on an indefinite vacation and upsets a few very careful plans.)

Summary
“Go.” She said, not quite yelling but suddenly intense as she herded Harry back, away from the pillar and towards the tracks. “Go now, boy, or you’ll miss your train!”
He looked behind his shoulder, there was a train....he hadn’t heard it approach. The doors were open and waiting, and for no good reason at all, he stepped inside. The strange little woman didn’t follow him on, she simply stood there watching him. that same incomprehensible smile on her face.
“Which path will you choose?” She asked again, just before the doors closed, replacing his view of her with his own, pale reflection.
===================
Sirius was gone, and Harry's world was crumbling through his fingers. All he wanted was a little peace, just a moment to himself.
Maybe it was a wish come true.
Maybe it was just the machinations of a strange little witch and her enchanted locket.
When Harry found himself, now fifty years in the past, on his birthday he doesn't question it too much.
He just take the opportunities set before him.
