**CURRENTLY ON HIATUS**
I'm still actively writing the story, however, as I was publishing the chapters, I found myself going back to edit them constantly. It made more sense for me to finish the story (or at least get a good foundation going) before continuing. I published the prologue so you guys can get a glimpse of what the new story is going to be about, so hopefully you enjoy as much as the previous version!
Astrid Rosier was born into privilege, but her life has never been simple. Believed to be a Squib until a tragic accident revealed her magical potential. Now, a seventh-year Ravenclaw at Hogwarts, she finds herself drawn back into a world of ancient magic and into the orbit of Sebastian Sallow.
Friendship, love, and morality twist together as Astrid's power grows, threatening to consume everything she thought she knew. With Ominis by her side and Sebastian in the shadows, the line between right and wrong disappears, and the choices she makes may haunt her forever.

Unforgivable
After Y/N's fatal choice to end Solomon Sallows life, Sebastian disappears. With Sebastian gone, Y/N must now lean on Ominis Gaunt to help her through the loss of her beloved Professor and the guilt that festers deep within her heart. Y/N believes Ominis is the only one she can truly trust but even he has his secrets and when Sebastian unexpectedly returns for her, the secret is revealed. A secret that will threaten to tear the once-unbreakable trio apart. But once a new threat emerges, the three must put Ominis' deceit aside and work together. Disclaimer: This story contains spoilers for Hogwarts Legacy. Mentions of smoking, drinking, and themes of childhood abuse. Very important plot points are used. In addition, there will be fluff, smut, spice, violence, TOTAL AND UTTER BETRAYAL, and mentions of PTSD. This starts very Ominisxreader heavy but Sebastian is ENDGAME, I promise.
Serpent Gossip - Ominis Gaunt
🎧✨Listen to the Audiobook on YouTube✨🎧 🐍 What to Expect 🐍 🌻 This is a soft divergence AU of Hogwarts Legacy, where the world is a little kinder, and hearts get to heal instead of break. 👉 In this version of the story, Anne Sallow is alive and well, Sebastian hasn't gone down a dark path (yet?), and our protagonist, Nina, is a transfer student from Beauxbatons learning to navigate Hogwarts, Slytherin House, and one particularly guarded, sharp-tongued boy with clouded eyes and a complicated past. You won't find relics or grand lore here - but you will find slow-burn friendships, awkward teenage crushes, stolen glances, cozy common rooms, quiet grief, and maybe... a little more. 📌 Canon tweaks: Garreth replaces Leander in early scenes (because let's be real: who needs Leander). Henrietta is an original side character with big Hermione Granger energy. Think of her as a tiny wink to the larger HP universe. I also added other side characters here and there (for ex. an ancestor of the Malfoys) just for the flow. I know I did Imelda dirty here (I think she's great), but I needed someone to play the mean girl and she happily took the job. ☝️ Storyline-wise, this fic diverges early from the game and reimagines many events through a lighter, more character-driven lens. ⚠️ Trigger warning: there are no triggers. Unless you count excessive fluff, snarky banter, or slow emotional unraveling. Proceed with tea. 🌈 This fanfic is safe-for-work and non-mature. No explicit content here - just plenty of emotional tension and heart-eyes. 🏳️🌈 Anne is queer in my lore. It's not the focus, but it's there. Softly, quietly, and without fuss.Complete

Obliviate (Hogwarts Legacy Sequel Feat. Dark!Sebastian Sallow)
In a weird way, your heart would ache whenever you saw Sebastian smile, or whenever you'd hear him laugh. His joy wasn't real. He was clearly confused but played it off with sly jokes and remarks. Whatever Ominis did most definitely worked, and so far, no real problems had occurred. However, this constant voice in the back of your mind likes to remind you of the potential for complications. You have betrayed Sebastian not once, but twice. If he were to ever find out the truth about his past, everything would go up in flames-possibly quite literally. ~ You and Ominis turned in Sebastian for his use of the Dark Arts during the events of Hogwarts Legacy, therefore sending him to Azkaban. During your final year (seventh) at Hogwarts, Sebastian manages to escape, setting his sights on the both of you. In a desperate attempt to save your life, Ominis uses the Memory Charm on Sebastian, wiping Azkaban, Anne and Solomon from his mind. ~ This has some romance elements (love triangle), but is primarily fantasy thriller! Just make sure that's your cup of tea before you start reading. The story will get extremely dark as it progresses. Now includes media (music/trailers)!

Legacy Disowned - Book 2
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.

The Unraveling
Our bond was formed long before we met, as if a string had been tied to our wrists, connecting us at birth... It is something beyond us, beyond this life... We were destined to meet, destined to love, destined to be together, right now, right here... Our bond was formed long before we met, Infinite, never unraveling. If you told Adelia Miltin a few years ago that witches and wizards existed, she would have called you mad. Yet, here she was, about to enter a school meant for aspiring witches and wizards as a new 7th year student. She thought her only worries were going to be taking care of her ailing grandmother, not learning how to fly a broom. Not only will she have to traverse through the halls of Hogwarts, but she will also have to navigate her new life filled with Ancient Magic, budding friendships, and an insufferable Slytherin named Sebastian Sallow. If you told Sebastian Sallow that his semester would start with a failed duel on his part, he would have called you a liar. Yet, here he was, named second-best by the hands of a new student, someone who could hardly hold their wand correctly. He thought his biggest worries this year were going to be discovering what happened to his parents, but now he also must fight for his title as best duelist back from an incompetent Hufflepuff named Adelia Miltin. ------- This is a slow burn Sebastian x fMC fic that will explore life before the curse and develop characters and relationships. This may be a slow read with a few episodic chapters since I want the reader to feel like they are going to school with the characters. There will be plenty of fluff in the beginning and angst in later chapters. While the fic does follow the main storyline from the game, I have added/removed/changed events/characters to suit my story. Please read the warnings and rights BEFORE starting this story! Thank you for your support! 😊

By a stroke of luck, the ministry has decided to give Sebastian a second chance. He gets to come back to Hogwarts for his seventh year of schooling. Ominis is still Sebastian's friend, but he wants to keep you away from him at all costs. He hates you for what you did to his best friend. On a happy note, St. Mungos finally found a cure for Anne Sallow's curse, and she's back at Hogwarts for her seventh year as well.
