***SPOILERS*** This takes place after the "In The Shadow of the Relic" side quest, so if you don't want to be spoiled, stop now!

What if Sebastian needs a place to hide and recover, while his friends figure out how to help him? What if his good friend just so happens to have a place that no one else knows about, where he can rest and heal and work through his issues? And what if, along the way, they find out that their friendship is more than just a friendship? Can love heal all?

Raileigh Malcolm thought there was something strange about the relic that Sebastian had been using, and she wasn't sure her friend was completely in control of his own actions when he used an unforgivable curse. She needed time to figure out the answer before the ministry came calling, and Sebastian needed somewhere to hide. A little bit of good old fashioned hard work might help him, too. And the castle ruins in her vivarium were the perfect place to hide.

How to Make a Villain | Sebastian Sallow x F!OC by morelikeravenbore
29 parts Ongoing Mature
A comprehensive guide on how to turn the good guys bad. Canon divergent, slow burn, mutual pining, idiots in love. ~x~ Aurélie Collins wishes she were invisible. Unfortunately, despite her best efforts to be normal, there are a great many unusual things about the red-haired girl from France. She's the only transfer student Hogwarts has seen in recent memory, she has an absolutely abysmal sense of direction, and - though she desperately wishes she couldn't - she can wield an ancient and highly unstable form of rare magic. When tragedy rips her from her life of opulence at Beauxbatons Academy of Magic, Aurélie is unceremoniously thrust into the freezing cold Scottish Highlands to finish her final year at Hogwarts, where the castle's floor plan is impossible to navigate, obsession with gossip runs prevalent among the student body, and it's freezing bloody cold - all the time. Worse still, she finds herself unable to escape the unwavering attention of Sebastian Sallow. Tall, handsome and infuriatingly arrogant, the Slytherin Quidditch captain is convinced he's the greatest thing to ever walk the halls of Hogwarts, is best friends with a Gaunt, and, to Aurélie's endless irritation, does not want to let her out of his sight. Ever. But when the horrors of her past threaten to catch up with her, Aurélie must make a choice: tap into the magical abilities she's tried so hard to suppress her whole life and put her trust in the very same Slytherin boy who won't stop antagonising her, or spend her life running and hiding from those who tore her life apart in France. Will she step into the power she was born to wield to protect herself and those she loves? And will Sebastian Sallow prove himself to be more of an ally than she could have ever imagined?
Legacy Disowned - Book 2 by toonedupfiction
21 parts Ongoing Mature
Going into their 6th year at Hogwarts, Maggie Darling, Ominis Gaunt and Sebastian Sallow are hard at work trying do the right thing. They have been searching tirelessly for a way to cure Anne of her curse and find a way to deal with the repository once and for all. These tasks prove more difficult than anticipated forever and ghosts from the past come back to make their missions even more complicated. *** This second book takes place after the events of Hogwarts Legacy, following the story of an original protagonist, the young Miss Darling. We are now in uncharted territory of the story. This is a transformative work based on the Harry Potter franchise by J.K. Rowling and Portkey Games Hogwarts Legacy. Consider this an expansion and a fresh look at the game through an original lense presented in a literary format. *** What to Expect: I highly suggest reading book 1 first. I have left lots of hints and clues to the bigger picture for the series so if you just dive in to two you might be totally lost. Miss Darling comes from an upbringing that makes her a far cry from your typical Hogwarts student. She is very much an anti hero who engages in a lot of questionable behavior but strives to at least try to be a decent person. It is a rotating third person perspective where we will see things through the eyes of many different characters. The story primarily focusses on the Slytherin trio of Darling, Sebastian and Ominis. This is rated mature for violence. While there are some crushes confused and slow burning relationships typical for adolescence our protagonists have quite a bit on their plate so this is first and foremost and action adventure. There will be no nsfw.

Sebastian Sallow is gone. For over a year now he's been radio silent despite desperate attempts to find him. Without so much as a warning he left everyone behind, leaving Olivia in a wake of despair. The past year has been spent healing and trying to move on and form new relationships. But when he returns unexpectedly at the start of seventh year, what is she to think? Lost Devotion is set in the seventh year of Hogwarts and follows along as Olivia and Sebastian navigate through whatever it is that they have between them. From enemies to lovers, lies and despair....one thing is for certain: nothing is simple when it comes to Sebastian Sallow. <><><><><><><> It's a SLOW BURN with lots of story building and is inspired by one of my own Slytherin MC. You are welcome to replace that with your own MC if you like. ⚠️This story contains depictions of foul language, alcohol use, graphic violence, themes of SA, trauma and explicit sexual content and more.⚠️ This does also contain some spoilers for Hogwarts Legacy, so read it at your own risk. A 🌶️ in the title of a chapter denotes sexually explicit content or steamy content. I am still editing and writing this story but will try to post often! Also I'm a visual person so sometimes I'll post pictures and inspo, all the art is not owned by me and all credit goes to the artist. ❣️Cover photo credit goes to DVINAAMESCA-DVNA on tumblr❣️ Thank you to anyone that takes the time to read this story, I write as a fun past time so I truly appreciate anyone taking the time to give it a read. Thank you all ❤️
Sanguinis et Omnium Fractorum//Sebastian Sallow by kaidynsarell
15 parts Ongoing Mature
Clara Elmore was fifteen when she saved the wizarding world. The Hero of Hogwarts they'd called her. But could she truly be called a hero if she was the villain in the stories of so many others? Was it truly victory if blood lingered under her fingernails from the mountain of corpses she'd crawled over to obtain it? Was it truly victory If Anne was still dying? If Ominis still lived under the shadow of his family? If Sebastian had vanished almost without a trace and left everything that had sparked between them behind? Two years later; dark forces begin to stir in the shadows, nightmares prove frighteningly real, and memories are not what they seem. Victory may not have been what she thought and The Repository may have only been the beginning. ******** * This writing thing? It's new. Very new and exciting and mostly scary. So I apologize in advance for the approximately 189030000 grammatical mistakes I'm sure will be found. ( We're all going to pretend not to notice them okay? Okay.) Sebastian Sallow x Female Slytherin OC (slow burn) Third Person POV This is a Seventh Year Fic and characters are aged 18+ CW: This story will get very DARK. Please be prepared for mature themes. Including: Graphic descriptions of violence and torture, blood, terminal Illness, PTSD, depression, anxiety, suicide, self-harm, substance abuse, character death, implied SA, forced pregnancy, angst, and some mild smut ( maybe not so mild later, we'll see ;) *I will try to include specific warnings on chapters but if any of the above make you uncomfortable please skip the necessary chapters or skip this story altogether. :) *This story takes place after the events of Hogwarts Legacy and will include spoilers from the events of the game * Aside from Clara Elmore and her likeness all characters are owned and trademarked by Warner Bros, Portkey Games, and Wizarding World.
