    Summary

    In July 1978, Lord Voldemort and his new alchemist, Corvus Thorne, planned an experiment devoted to blood purity...
    Project "Purity"
    Its goal was to “purify” Mudbloods—Muggle-borns—through the use of the blood of certain pure-bloods... thus creating puppets loyal to the Dark Lord.

    The project began that same year with two children:
    A boy born on January 18, 1978, given to the Lestrange couple.
    A girl born on April 21, 1978, given to the Malfoy couple.
    They were called Antares and Cassiopeia.

    In March 1998, as the wizarding war nears its climax, the consequences of “Purity Project” finally unfold. In the Forest of Dean, Antares sacrifices himself to save Bellatrix Lestrange, dying while believing he had failed her. His death shatters Bellatrix, who realizes too late that she truly loved him despite her ideology.

    Meanwhile, Cassiopeia becomes another victim of the war’s cruelty. Used as a bargaining piece for her father’s failures and trapped in a brutal marriage, she dies before her family can save her. Her death devastates the Malfoys, forcing them to confront the cost of their beliefs.

    In the end, the war that promised purity only destroys the very children it created.

    Summary

    These violent delights have violent ends, and all that glitters is not gold. Lysa is a terrible person doing terrible things, and deserves every terrible consequence that she will bring upon others and possibly herself as a result. Given that she's been reborn as a woman in Westeros, however, that's a price she's willing to pay. It's only gunpowder; what's the worst that can happen?

    Or, a villain protagonist makes trainwreck life choices, therefore fitting in with everyone in this god awful world. Readers may rubberneck in hatred or fascination, at your own choosing.

    Summary

    “I just—”
    The words dissolve into wet coughing, blood spilling from his lips.
    And for the first time in his life, he has all of them listening.
    All of them looking at him.
    All of them seeing him.
    “I just wanted to be loved,” Tim chokes out.
    The world stops.
    His family freezes in horror.
    Tim’s eyes burn, tears slipping sideways into his hair.
    “Was that too much to ask for?”
    No one answers.
    Those are Tim Drake’s last words.

    Or

    Tim wakes up ten years in the past and makes sure his family is happy

    Summary

    Petunia wasn't the smart one. Or the pretty one. Or the magical one. But she was cunning, resourceful, and she knew what she wanted from life... and she got it.

    So when her nephew turns up on her doorstep one cold November morning, she sees it as the opportunity that it is.

    ---

    This was an odd little earworm of a plot bunny that wouldn't leave me alone. I'm much more inclined to shorter works, so it's a bit of a patchwork story.

    Note on the tags. Petunia is... Petunia. She is not really 'Nice' or 'Good' but she's not 'Mean' or 'Evil' either. She's a selfish, self-centered woman with a brittle sense of self-esteem and a drive to be recognized as successful in her own right. I tagged it 'Good' because that was the closest I could get to 'not the horrible person from the book, but not really even close to a Molly'.

    Also: I will not be tagging every single person who appears in the fic, only those with reoccurring roles. This is not a bashing fic and I've done as best as possible to give rational(ish) 'good intentions' explanations for the canon shenanigans.
