Oh, Merlin. It's you. (Ominis x Reader)
Ominis and you started out on completely the wrong foot. You, a frequent victim of foolish accidents, and him, an unintentionally rash tone that he is unable to control. After many embarrassing rendezvous, the two of you grow an unbreakable friendship as your initial friction blossoms into a slow-burning and passionate love that everyone seems to notice except for yourselves. Reader is MC and it takes place during the 5th year. Incredibly slow, slow-burn with an enemies(ish) to friends to lovers storyline. Y/n is part of a friendship trio with Ominis and Sebastian and the story includes many comfort/angst scenarios as well as good laughs. Contains some dark themes of child abuse, violence, depression, and more! (Read intro for more info) Originally on Archiveofourown❤️Complete

Hogwarts Legacy: The Price of Power
Following Dracaena Hoctina's eventful fifth year as a new student with extraordinary powers, both she and her best friend, Ominis Gaunt, enjoyed a relatively peaceful sixth year at Hogwarts. Now, as their seventh and final year approaches, they hope for another untroubled school year. However, Dracaena still feels no small level of guilt over her decision to turn Sebastian in to the Ministry. It's a guilt Ominis shares, and the pair have grown close following Sebastian's incarceration in Azkaban at the end of their fifth year, even spending their holidays together. Both of them still miss Sebastian terribly, and wonder if things could have been different if they had made different choices. On the Hogwarts Express, winging their way towards the castle once more, Dracaena and Ominis are interrupted in their compartment by a strange, yet wonderfully familiar figure standing in the doorway. Sebastian has returned. As the school year progresses, the Silver Trio are faced with an array of problems to navigate. Their approaching exams, the horrible amount of homework, and a blossoming love triangle between the three of them are the least of their worries, as Dracaena's magical powers begin to grow out of control. (!! All characters are 18+ !!) Note - due to a recent spate of disrespectful behaviour, comments are now moderated. I would like to foster a positive atmosphere for everyone engaging with this story, and while opinions are freely accepted, outright negativity, aggressiveness and insults are not. Ta~💚Complete

For the Love of a Slytherin
Hufflepuff reader, Adelaide Adonis has just started at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Little did she know, she would meet a student who would challenge her to the very core of her beliefs, and yet still make her fall in love with him along the way. Spoilers for the game. It's a telling of the players thoughts/feelings towards the different Sebastian scenarios throughout the game, along with slight changes to the storyline. I don't own anything. Thanks for reading :) Update: I added a new book titled 'For the love of Sebastian Sallow.' This will contain more romance since I will have more creative freedom without following the storyline of the game. It follows the same characters, and some of Adelaide's other friends, only two years later in their final year at Hogwarts.Complete

Anne & Ominis POV. *** When Anne thought about Ominis, her heart fluttered in her chest in a way that caught her completely off guard. She wasn't supposed to feel this way about her twin brother's best friend. It was all quite maddening, really.Complete
