Summary
When Harry was young, a prophecy foretold he would defeat the darkest Dark Lord of their age. And somehow, he had—without him remembering.
But just before he left for Hogwarts, his parents warned him about the Dark Lord's son, one he had left behind in a Muggle orphanage, never to get close—
Harry didn't care. He befriended the prickly Slytherin, and now, a decade later, they had never been closer.
They were best friends. Best friends who happened to fuck... best friends who knew how each other tasted.
It was perfect—until it wasn't. Things went downhill when Ron and Hermione noticed Tom's gift, and suggested, that it looked like... a proposal.
That wasn't right. Lots of friends sleep together, right? Tell the other how good they felt, how amazingly they sucked...
Oh. Oh, fuck.

Summary
In one universe, Albus Dumbledore meets a bully named Tom Riddle and set his wardrobe on (fake) fire, starting an enmity that will shape the wizarding world for decades to come.
In another universe, where one's soul takes the shape of an animal, Albus, led by his daemon Nimue, reconsiders. Perhaps it would be better, wiser to get to know the boy before punishing him?
Or, what would have happened if Dumbledore had really tried to help Tom Riddle?
(If you're not familiar with the concept of daemon, everything is explained in the first chapter's introduction.)
