There are 3 parts of a shadow: The umbra, penumbra and antumbra
Mikal Grey is the new professors of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardy, ready to teach and introduce an entirely new field: Affective Sciography. A completely unique form of magic where the user controls objects by manipulating it's shadow. Not only that, but after extensive teaching and studying, one will eventually learn how to read a person based entirely on their shadow. This area of study has it's scholars learning how to understand someone not based on what they say, but what they feel. The intimacy and integrity needed in this field are deep, yet everyone expresses these traits differently. Entering the class makes you vulnerable, but you end up with an impenetrable sense of perception and a clear understanding of how each person's mind works.
This down to earth, eccentric and inspiring teacher will have his work cut out for him. He'll need to teach the students of his class to dig deeper than just what people say and how they act. To use their magic to be able to tap in and see the intentions and motivations that spur people on to do what they do. Not everyone cares or is cut out for it, but those who decide to pursue this new field will not only learn about themselves, but the hidden personalities and secrets of their classmates, as well as their mysterious teacher.
Find the love for learning again after the horrors of Voldemort and the Great War, as Hogwarts rebuilds it's reputation and prestige.

The Outcasts Of Hogwarts
"I know you know what I am, Professor Lupin. Our kind can always recognise one of their own" "Yes, but there's something different about you. Something I can't understand" There's a new student at Hogwarts when Harry returns for his third year. She is loud and impulsive but also has a lot of secrets. Secrets that she only seems to share with the new DADA teacher. Amaris Lovec missed out on her first two years at Hogwarts, as well as any interaction with children her age before she attends the school. She finds it difficult to adjust to her new way of life away from her pureblood fanatic father and the isolated world she grew up in, finding magical creatures much easier to understand. Despite being an Outcast, she manages forms strong bonds with the other school misfits and creates a pack that is greater than the divisions of the four houses. This story will be the plot of the Harry Potter series from the perspective of my characters with their own adventures added in. Disclaimer: the universe of the Wizarding World belongs to that author, the only thing that belongs to me are the characters I have slotted into her story. I'm not going to be writing out the entire plot of the Harry Potter books so you will need a basic knowledge of what happens in them to fully understand my story (which I'm guessing you'll have because you wouldn't be reading a Harry Potter fanfiction if didn't). The artwork for the cover is not to be copied or shared. Updates on the first of the month. I hope you enjoy it.![Hogwarts: a school of Witchcraft and Love (Tom Marvolo Riddle x F!reader) [✓]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/340170206-256-k405052.jpg)
Hogwarts: a school of Witchcraft and Love (Tom Marvolo Riddle x F!reader) [✓]
"Years ago, I met a boy who made all the wrong choices." As orphans, you and Tom Riddle have more in common than having no parental figures in your lives. One day, it turns out that you, too, can use magic, and it changes everything. For better or for worse? Your adventure starts off in Hogwarts, Britain's very own school of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where you are to spend the next seven years of your life. You grow and learn, but not always together, and not the same things. During the course of the years, he starts to get more and more involved with the Dark Arts... And you start to realize that there is something very wrong with your friend. As he gets older, he becomes more manipulative, possessive and twisted. He starts to use his powers and his looks to control those around him-including you. Eventually, Tom's true nature is revealed, but by then, it's too late for you. You fall under his spell, completely under his control, and there is nothing anyone could do to save you from the darkness that awaits. *~*~* ♡ A slowburn/sociopathic/dark Tom Marvolo Riddle x F!reader book that centers around both reader's perspective and Tom's fall into madness/rise in influence and power. The 'effects' of Tom's influence become apperent later in the book, so the emotional conflicts/thoughts start later too. ♡ Cross posted on ao3. ♡ I don't claim the Harry Potter characters in any way, the only thing I claim is the plot, some OC's and this, like my other books, are not made to make money off of them. ♡ I'm firmly against using AI for bookwriting as it takes away from the whole creativity standpoint. So you don't have to worry about that in any of my books. ♡ This book is very fucking long lol so just be aware.

Scorpius Malfoy and Albus Potter have decided fifth year is going to be their year; the year everything falls into place for them both and the year they show the bullies they aren't afraid of them. Scorpius receives a prefect badge and Albus is going to join the Quidditch team, if Scorpius can just convince him that he should try out. It's going to be the year everything works out for them, and if that means Scorpius keeping his huge crush on his best friend a secret, then that's just what he's going to have to do. It's just a crush.

Entangled by magic
"You have completely and utterly bewitched me, Lucia. Every time I look at you, I feel practically hypnotized." ☆✰⭐︎ Lucia Winters was raised in a pure-blood family with a storied history, expectations weigh heavily on her. Her father couldn't say no when she was invited to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry as a fifth year. She was deeply nervous about stepping into Hogwarts, not that she would ever admit it out loud. Lucia didn't grow up dreaming of the Great Hall, or getting sorted in front of hundreds of staring eyes. But with carefully composed nervousness there was excitement, she was burning with it. Lucia doesn't know yet what is to come, the power she can yield from her fingertips, a person who could guide her magic, or possibly use it. Sebastian Sallow was in his fifth year of Hogwarts. It started with exhaustion. The kind that settles into your bones - the kind that no amount of sleep or sugar quills can fix. Sebastian hid it with his grin, the sarcasm, the easy confidence. But by now, it was habit, not joy. Anne hadn't improved. Solomon barely spoke to him. So he did what he always did, he hid the bleeding parts. But underneath all of it was a hum, a low, constant desperation. He started digging into older magic, darker spells, things the books said he shouldn't touch. He touched them anyway. Sebastian was not going to sit back and watch his sister wither when he knew there were answers? No. There had to be answers, something, or someone, will show him. ☆✰⭐︎ A collision of two desperate souls, one already falling, the other just stepping into the dark. He needs her - not just because of her magic. She needs him - not just because he sees her clearly. Two people keeping secrets, both too clever for their own good, both drawn to eachother like gravity. Somewhere in their desperation, ambition, and obsession with saving Anne, it started to look like more than a friendship.![Unmasked (A Scorily/Scorlily Fanfic)[post-cursed child]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/99566264-256-k475347.jpg)
Unmasked (A Scorily/Scorlily Fanfic)[post-cursed child]
A dancing pair of fluttery pink fairy wings. That was all anyone ever seemed to see in Lily Luna Potter, because she never took them off. An angel of innocence, she pranced around Hogwarts as if everyone loved her, making good marks and smiling at everyone she saw. It was all a mask, of course, and it chafed at her, making her feel pressured and overly bubbly, like a bottle of butterbeer being shaken. It was bound to wear thin someday and peel off, this mask of hers, she reasoned. Why not now? A stack of books. That was all anyone ever seemed to see in Scorpius Malfoy, because he was never seen without one- often his thin face would be completely hidden by thick, musty old tomes. Even after going on that completely MENTAL time-traveling adventure with Albus Potter and having his birth status confirmed, Scorpius was still "that odd Malfoy kid," while Albus himself had suddenly become a Hogwarts icon. This made Scorpius feel second-best to a former fellow loser- never a good feeling. But he was bound to distinguish himself someday, he reasoned. Why not now? Scorpius Malfoy and Lily Potter. Two adolescents who were trying to break free from predetermined images that had been thrust upon them. Their only obstacles? Each other.Complete
