Summary
The Killing Curse struck twice.
Green light split the graveyard and The-Boy-Who-Lived fell with the spare. For a breathless, suspended second, there was silence. Then, something ancient turned its head.
Death had not been consulted.
When Cedric Diggory’s body inhaled again, it was not with the soul that had left it.
Across the grass, Lord Voldemort smiled because he did not yet understand that he had made a different kind of mistake.

Summary
Lord Voldemort was dead. Killed by a mere toddler.
At least, that’s what the prophet had emblazoned across its front page on November 1st, 1981.
Barty Crouch Jr knew better. And he was going to be rewarded greatly when he found his master, and delivered little Harry Potter's head on a plate.

Summary
A horcrux did not stop one from aging. Oh it slowed it down, that wasn’t indisputable but if Lord Voldemort wished to live forever, he would need something far more substantial.
Horcruxes alone, he had long since realised, were not perfect. The soul was tethered, yes, but the body still yielded in its slow decay. Rot had no master, only time.
---
There was something wrong with Harry Potter.
At first, no one noticed. The boy grew as he ought to grow, small and underfed in Privet Drive. But there was something, deeply, off kilter about him. The Dursleys not only locked his cupboard door on a night, but also their bedroom doors as well. Not because of the magic, though they feared that too, but because sometimes the boy watched them at night, eyes glinting in the dark when they forgot about the cupboard....

A teenage vampire seeking his Sire. His loyal dog. Dead rats. And a babysitting Barty Crouch Junior.

Summary
There was no pity in Arcturus’s gaze, no affection, but neither was there disdain. What filled his eyes was something far more unsettling—something heavy and calculating, as though he were measuring Sirius with a precision no one else ever had. Cold and deliberate, it was the look of a man who saw not a grandson, but a tool, a piece in a grander scheme.
“The time has come for us to return to our roots,” Arcturus began, his voice steady, like the pronouncement of fate itself. “We’ve allowed ourselves to care too much for the opinions of sheep. We’ve let slip the traditions, the magic that defines our blood. And in doing so, we’ve bowed to the world. When, in truth, it is the world that should bow to us.”
Or: Faced with their looming ruin, the Black Family decided to take a Targaryen approach to solving their problems.
Or: They are to be married in the tradition of their House.

Summary
“From my flesh, you came,” Hannibal murmurs, and Will muddles over the potential implications of the double entendre. But it’s what Hannibal says next that sends a shiver of unease down his spine. “And to my flesh, my dear boy, you will return.”
Post-fall, Will and Hannibal are navigating the unfamiliar terrain of their new lives together when Hannibal experiences sudden kidney failure. When Will offers to give Hannibal one of his own kidneys, tests reveal more than just Will’s eligibility as a donor: Will is Hannibal’s biological son.
When Will learns the truth, it's not the knowledge itself that horrifies him the most— it's the fact that unlike himself, Hannibal is thrilled.
As Hannibal continues to press the boundaries of their intimacy with renewed enthusiasm, Will gets to grapple with brand new horrific Freudian quandaries on top of all of the other bullshit he’s already working through. What Hannibal wants is for Will to let go of shame and embrace every sordid, animal desire he’s ever had. What Will wants is, well, hard to parse out from what Hannibal wants these days.

Summary
After very publicly (some would argue theatrically) losing his mind and murdering three young women in an unconscious state, FBI consultant Will Graham is sentenced to serve three consecutive life sentences in the notorious Shawshank State Prison. Upon arrival, he is unsettled to find himself in a cell neighboring that of infamous serial killer Dr. Hannibal Lecter, who is 12 years into his own life sentences and amuses himself dealing in fine contraband.
When Will approaches Lecter with an unusual request, the two strike up a friendship which, over the years, develops into a powerful infatuation that will change them both irreversibly. But prison is no fairy-tale world, and there are dangers lurking around every corner: the violent captain of the guards, Jack Crawford; the scheming warden, Frederick Chilton; and the brutal gang known as the Sisters, led by the murderer Francis Dolarhyde.
And then there is the secret Will is hiding in his cell. A secret that, sooner or later, will change everything.

Inspired by the novella "Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption" by Stephen King and the film adaptation by Frank Darabont.
