  4. Summary

    “I feel I have to start from scratch each time I write; I gain no greater confidence no matter how many books I publish.” - Richard Sennett

    Or, what I write when I’m definitely supposed to be writing other things. Was originally a fic where each chapter was a prompt, but I crave attention so I made them all individual fics.

    Summary

    Harry Potter was done waiting.
    After years of beatings, neglect, and being treated like an inconvenience in his own home, Harry runs away from Privet Drive in the middle of summer—tired of the Dursleys’ cruelty, the silence from those who were supposed to protect him, and the strained, carefully-worded letters from friends who feel increasingly out of reach.
    In the heart of Diagon Alley, Harry discovers something that should have been impossible: he is not only the Heir of House Potter, but also the Heir of House Black. Two ancient lines of magic awaken within him—fire and ice, honour and control—binding themselves to him in ways he is only beginning to understand.
    When legal magic confirms his emancipation, Harry is offered something he has never truly had before: choice.
    Taken in under the protection of a certain Weasley connection—someone far from the Ministry’s reach and far closer to Goblin law than most wizards realize—Harry begins to rebuild his life from the ground up.
    And if that so happened to be him resorting himself into a certain green and silver Hogwarts house? So be it.

    Summary

    AU. Harry grew up with the Dursleys after his parents died in the war, but he isn’t the Boy-Who-Lived. His determination to have friends at Hogwarts leads him into Hufflepuff House. And his determination to protect himself and his friends leads to him saving the day, a lot—accidentally.

    Summary

    The bartender winks at Steve when he slides his drink over, extra wedge of lime on top (which causes Steve to blush like a fucking virgin, and he hates himself for it). What is it about this guy that flusters him so easily? Maybe it's the effortless way he rules his domain behind the bar; confident and boisterous, his clever, dextrous fingers skimming the bottles as he pulls them from the shelves to mix drinks.
    Steve’s distracted, watching him. The more he drinks, the more he stares.
    The more Robin eyes him, warily.

    ---

    steve, robin, and a bucketload of unresolved tension walk into a bar (eddie and chrissy pine on the clock, gareth watches it unfold with minimal griping). everything stays unresolved until steve gets hit on, and eddie steps in as the world's best fake boyfriend <3

    Summary

    “When did you become a softie, Steve?" He shrugged, standing up.

    “Probably around the time my younger sibling stand-ins started doing things like falling into 18-month long comas. I'd say that’s about when.”

    -------

    OR I wrote a Max reunion scene with the folks who were in the Upside Down because the Duffers didn't want to.
