Summary
There is a Gaunt family curse.
The family tree is a withered thing, gnarled and twisted from centuries of marrying cousins to cousins and clinging to a bloodline steeped in dark magic. The curse is evident in every branch, the poison seeping through their veins. The fruit it bears is bitter as the intent that first sowed it. Each generation is more puckered and stunted than the last, a collection of sour grapes on a vine that should have been pruned long ago. Her mother sworn Matilda would be free of it.
It is the last promise she ever makes.
It was extremely disappointing to the Dark Lord. Matilda carried Salazer Slytherin’s blood in her veins, diluted but undeniable, and yet she did nothing with it. She did not even resent the world that had taken everything from her and expected her gratitude in return.
The Gaunt family had always known how to recognise their own. Fruit does not choose the vine it grows on. And some fruit, no matter how carefully picked, still comes up bitter.

A canon retelling of the Harry Potter series through the perspective of an autistic Slytherin female character, who is also, regrettably, Voldemort’s cousin.

Summary
Girlhood in Hawkins came with rules. Girls were supposed to smile politely, laugh softly, and swallow their anger before it became ugly. Pretty girls had it easiest, at least on the surface of things. They were treated like objects instead of people, curled hair and glossed lips and crossed legs while the men spoke over them. Smart girls learned to make themselves smaller.
Priscilla Kline learned the rules young. Being the mayor’s daughter meant smiling through town parades and campaign dinners while men talked over her and around her and at her. By eighteen, she had perfected the art of being underestimated.
Nancy Wheeler never learned how to stay quiet properly. The men at The Hawkins Post seem determined to punish her for that, and even Jonathan Byers struggles to understand the space between ambition and survival. Then there is Priscilla: soft-spoken, beautiful, and exactly the sort of girl Nancy assumes could never understand her at all.
She is wrong about a lot of things that summer.

Summary
Dariya Ovechkina and Steve Harrington had agreed to date.
Not for love. Not even for like. It wasn't a kiss-behind-the-gym, pass-a-note-in-math kind of beginning. No fireworks. No music cue. Just a short, strange conversation in the cold, somewhere between midnight and morning, and a decision that didn't feel real until everyone at school started looking at her differently.
It was just supposed to be a distraction; that's how Steve had said it. Just a few weeks. Enough time for Nancy Wheeler to miss him. Enough time for Jonathan Byers to see what he lost. A little fake affection. A few public appearances. Walks down the hallway like they belonged together.
But lies are easy to start, and hard to stop.
STRANGER THINGS 2-5; will be long fic :)

Summary
Harry didn’t even know what a soulmate was.
He certainly didn’t have time to figure out the differences between muggle and wizarding puberty; what with the murderous teacher and three-headed dog in first year or the giant killer snake and teenage Voldemort in second year.
So imagine his shock and surprise when he wakes on his thirteenth birthday to a name inking itself on his skin.
A very familiar name.
And the course of history changes.
