Lyra and Lyle Grey return to Hogwarts for their sixth year. 

The events from their fifth year have taken them down different paths and left the once closely bonded twins at odds with each other. They have different friends and different expectations.

One wanting to wield the power of the repository and the other wanting to keep it safe until they learn more. Lyra, wanting to find out if she can safely use it to remove a curse that has befallen the twin sister of her best friend, Sebastian Sallow. Lyle, wanting to wield it to gain the power to protect those he loves from the looming threat of death that hangs over them constantly. 

Will they learn to work together or will the rift between them grow further until they're torn apart forever? 

This is a post Hogwarts Legacy story that will contain some spoilers from the game as it references past events that take place, mainly Sebastian's storyline and endgame content.


All characters are 16+ starting out will be 18+ by the end of the story as we progress through sixth and seventh years and after. 

This is a complete rewrite of my original fic "Crossing Grey Lines" as I didn't feel like the story I wanted to tell was coming through and the whole thing was a mess, so I decided the best thing to do was scrap it and start over. 

This is a darker story that will contain mature themes that may not be suitable for all readers, thus all chapters containing mature content will be marked with a *.

Themes that may appear in this story:
-PTSD
-Depression
-Su*cidal Ideation
-Alcoholism
-Violence
-Talks of/Acts of Intimacy, Se*ual or non.
-Substance Abuse (in the form of potions/tonics)

The consequences of our actions have the shadows talking back. Their voices are lovely, alluring, and most of all sinful. With their wicked tongues, they offer a temptation I may not be able to refuse. I can't help but wonder if we made the wrong choice. *** This is a dark enemies to enemy/lovers romance for Sebastian Sallow, and my OC Hyacinth "Hattie" Hills that takes place during her last year at Hogwarts. She is still in the throws of recovering from her first year, heavily stricken with the grief and trauma it caused her. Now that she's begun to heal, there's a shadow stalking the grounds that threatens to undo all of that progress. All participating characters are 18+, as this is set a bit in the future and with an added year at Hogwarts. This work contains many dark themes and triggers. There is some Ominis/OC but this is not for the Ominis girlies, unless you want to see him hurt. This fic is heavily inspired by Zade Meadows, and a thirst for the darkness. TW: Stalking, Obsession, CNC, Death, Trauma, Knife Play, Blood Play, Edging, Cuckhold, Orgasm Denial, Mirror Play, Spit Play, Heavy S&M, Face Fucking, Verbal Humiliation, Primal Play, Breeding Kink, Degradation, Sebastian is Cruel, We are going to traumatize Ominis Gaunt, ect....and will add others down the road, it's a lot to tag. You can find a full list of tags/warnings on the Ao3 copy of this fic and I will be adding warnings to every chapter that involve heavier themes. Each chapter title is based off of songs that inspired them, creating its own ballad - there is a link in the intro/warning chapter.

Atley Barlowe is a budding new witch who also carries the world on her shoulders as she travels the road less traveled to unlock the secrets of her connection to ancient magic. Will the burdens of their lives, minds and souls prove to be too much or can they save each other? Sebastian Sallow x Fem!oc (but please feel free to replace "Atley" with your oc's name and "Barlowe" with your oc's last name in your mind if you'd prefer to read it that way.) Slow burn romance but will slowly become a deep and dark fic filled with heart swelling fluff, chaos, angst, magic, dark magic, romance, friendship, family, twists, turns and all sorts of soul crushing. This will be a LONG fic in order to keep the entirety of the story together - but for new or slow readers - do not worry, chapters are fast paced and kept at a manageable length. Will contain spoilers from the Hogwarts Legacy game. Characters aged up to year seven (18 years old). - *SPOILERS - There will be MANY spoilers for the HL game so read at your own risk ** TW: This story will contain themes of death, struggles in mental health, depression, PTSD, anxiety, violence, a bit of intimacy, terminal illness, blood, alcoholism, injury, self harm, "foul" language - if you are uncomfortable with any of these, please do not read! *** All characters aside from Atley and their likeness are owned, created and trademarked by Warner Bros, Portkey Games, the Wizarding World, etc... all rights to them. Story / original character owned by me. Occasional scenes be taken from the game and use quotes, but my own additions will be added to them. Lastly, thank you for reading and all your support!

It's always exciting to feel like I'm reading an annotated book passed around among friends! :)
The Legacy of Our Love by Creative_Quills
43 parts Complete Mature
A Hogwarts Legacy story. Follow the adventures of Asra Devorak, as she is whisked away into a world of magic and mystery the day Professor Eleazar Fig discovered her ability to see traces of Ancient Magic. Enrolling in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry as a fifth year, she must quickly overcome the many challenges that come her way and catch up to her fellow students. Managing this proves to be quite the struggle as threats of a Goblin rebellion, and the unveiling of ancient secrets come at the price of her access to this Ancient Magic. After the encounter with Ranrok at Gringotts, Asra must work alongside Professor Fig to put an end to their plans, before the Ministry has another full scale rebellion on their hands. Not only must she now catch up on five years of magical education and stop a rebellion, but she must do so while her thoughts are more than distracted with her newfound infatuation with her new Slytherin companions; Sebastian Sallow and Ominis Gaunt. This story will follow the events of the game rather closely, with me expanding on certain scenes and plot points I felt the game just did not give us enough material for. I plan to expand this into a trilogy , as I have many plans for the remainder of their time at Hogwarts as well as the after years. If you're looking for plot focused stories with some feral open door romance, you're in the right place! This will be a non-monogamous storyline, because why would I make you choose between our Slytherin boys? This story will include mature themes such as discussions of childhood abuse, traumatic backstories, violence, wound description, sex, substance use/abuse, death, grieving, etc. All characters aged to 18+. We can view Hogwarts as more of a Univeristy school for older students for the sake of my morality.

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.
