Shellcottage Stories

What it's like to live in the Wizarding World

A re-imagining of Deathly Hallows from the POV of Harry Potter's stupid friend. (His words, not mine). Semi-canon. DISCLAIMER: I do not own the rights to these characters and situations. All rights lie with the author, JK Rowling. No copyright infringement intended, no material gain sought. I write this in tribute, and because I want to play in her playground for awhile...it's fantastic.

"It's not forgetting that heals. It's remembering." ~ Amy Greene *** A revealing tale starring everyone's favorite ginger and brunette pair. It's been nearly a year since the defeat of Voldemort, but things are far from over. After a year of absence, Ron and Hermione return to Shell Cottage to help Fleur prepare for her upcoming baby shower. Old memories are forced to the forefront and painful discoveries are made. Hearts are broken-and healed again. *** (Content based on the 'Deathly Hallows' book, not the movie.) ** THANK YOU to 'Pottercast' #226 and 'WeasleyMom' for helping inspire this story. Finally, a big thanks to 'Danii' for beta'ing the original version of this story!**

I See You Only when the two sides of the same coin can truly see one another, when day and night learn to coexist, only then shall the balance be restored. Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy have spent years seeing everything wrong with each other. So when Harry catches Draco slipping into Knockturn Alley, naturally, he follows him. What starts as an argument quickly turns into a chase, which leads them into a mysterious artifact shop-and directly into the path of an ancient cursed watch neither of them was supposed to touch. Now Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy are trapped in each other's bodies, with no idea how long the curse will last-or what, exactly, they are supposed to do to break it. Harry is suddenly living as Draco Malfoy: heir to a family he knows only through whispers, trapped beneath expectations he never understood, and carrying a secret that Harry knows all too well. Draco is suddenly living as Harry Potter: the Boy Who Lived, raised by people who never wanted him, carrying a history Draco was never meant to see from this close. The shopkeeper gives them only one answer. They have to truly see one another. How difficult could that possibly be? Apparently, very. Because seeing someone's face is easy. Seeing the person behind it is another matter entirely.

A book 8,is the battle really over? Another prophecy has been made that once Voldemort is defeated the people who have been a ffected by him will come back but is it all happy there

After Ron sacrifices himself 1st year, Hermione talks to him while he's asleep (I'm really bad a summaries but it's cute I swear)

A shell cottage fanfic focused mainly on characters other than the golden trio Mostly cannon-compliant (ill probably save some characters who died and turn it into an angst-ass storyline) JK owns all rights to the world and the characters. The story is mostly mine.
