10 years. That's how long it's been since the Battle of Hogwarts. Since Beckett was trapped and held captive by his best friend. He was supposed to die in the war. In one timeline, he did.
Everyone has moved on. They've long since stopped crying over fallen heroes, over lost friends. The Wizarding World has stopped announcing the anniversaries, or showcasing the names and pictures of those who had been killed.
So why can't Beckett move on?
Note: This book is made to accompany material found in the Ghosts of Hogwarts tag on Tik Tok and in the Ghosts of Hogwarts Amino. The tag's central characters are ghosts who died in Harry Potter's final battle with Voldemort at Hogwarts.
"Hindsight is 20/20" takes place in an Alternate Universe where none of the 'Ghosts of Hogwarts' tag members died, but survived the war instead. It takes place ten years after the war, and was made as an explanation for why my original character, Beckett, is living life like the war was yesterday.

Perception A Tom Marvolo Riddle Fanfiction completed
He had achieved almost everything he had wanted. He had power and he was immortal. And yet, there were a few things he hadn't achieved. He had not been able to get rid of his fear of defeat. And he had not been able to forget what had happened that fateful night fifteen years ago. If you asked him whether he has rued what happened that night, he would tell you that there's no room for repentance or contrition where there's not even a conscience. Yet he would tell you that although he felt no remorse that did not mean he did not regret. Sometimes you only know what you've had when you lose it. Sometimes it needs loss to inspire perception. Sometimes you need a second chance. And sometimes you get it. ********** This is the sequel to my story "Poison", and I guess it's necessary to have read "Poison" for "Perception" to make sense, so please feel invited to read "Poison" first if you haven't done so yet ;-)Complete

The Lion and the Eagle |Neville Longbottom|
Some things stick with you forever. For me, it's May 2, 1998. The Battle of Hogwarts. The day I lost some good friends. The day my second home became a war zone. The day a man I once trusted showed his true colors. The biggest thing then was surviving. The biggest thing now is still surviving, but also trying to move on from the past. Sometimes, though, the past is an impossible thing to forget. [cover by @psychedeliah]Complete
