Harry was tired of being the shadow of his twin brother Alexander, as everyone thought he was the 'boy who lived'. On his fifth birthday he decides to run away from home without a thought for where to go, meeting a person who will change his life forever...

"If we got each other, and that's all we have" Maddie Gallagher has horrible parents, but siblings that would kill for her. Maddie is the second youngest, a year younger than Carl. She's not like the other Gallaghers, she's sweet, and innocent. Maybe that's why they are all so protective over her. I only own my oc Maddie and a couple others.

"I dont know i just feel safe when im with you"

The Blacks want to marry off their youngest child. He begs Sirius for help and tells him a secret: He is a man and would rather die than be forced to be anyone's wife. Panicked, Sirius arranges a marriage between his brother and his friend James Potter, knowing that Regulus can be the man he is in the English countryside in James' estate, which is a sort of safe haven for homosexual servants who are running from the law or are already convicted. James wants to ensure Regulus' happiness, even at the expense of putting his life on hold for a while. Regulus wants to ensure James doesn't fall into societal ruin because of him. Sirius just wants to help. And Remus is just a very tired butler who watches James and Regulus dance around their actual feelings (literally). (Trans Reggie; set in the Victorian Age, 1890s. No horrible homophobia or transphobia depicted. Dysphoria is thematised. Other tags may be added)

Harry gets an anonymous love letter. He had gotten a lot of these kinds of letters but why is it that he can't let this one go? And why does he start to develop feeling for his best friends brother? Read to find out. Also, Voldy dies in his fourth year.

For the sake of the story's flow I have decided that this will not be a sequel. :)

A small beggar boy, the most powerful mage in a millennium. A wise cracking baby owl of death. An academy filled with the next rulers of the world and a war in Gaul about to start. You might say trouble is brewing. Rome wasn't built in a day, or so we say. But what if it was, what if powerful forces were at work, and they carried on playing their part throughout its history? Magic, monsters and people who could control them. Power is a game played out with monstrous pieces all across the ancient world and at its very heart was Rome. Despite its power and influence, the city has fallen on hard times, with wars raging across the northern lands, most men have been levied into the legions but it still isn't enough to achieve the total victory the senate want. When Iatus is pulled off the streets and put to the mage's test he knows he's probably going to die. But when he survives his encounter with a powerful demon, he starts down the path of war, murder and the endless pursuit of power.

Harry is saved by his snake familiar mortem, and introduced into the wonderful world of magic. Harry discovers his dragon familiar umber, and the truth about Voldemort, dumbledore and his mates. Credit to @janeconquestbackup for the amazing cover!
