    Summary

    It's the summer of 1998. The battle is over, and Voldemort is dead, but Harry still has more questions than answers. Who is he without a piece of Voldemort's soul in his head? What is he supposed to do now?

    His friends try to help, but the only thing that can hold his attention—one of the only things that ever has—is Draco Malfoy, out on parole and weirdly hanging around the British Museum.

    As they keep running into each other, Harry sees that Malfoy is different, and he wonders if he can be someone else, too.

    Featuring rumpled band shirts, poker games everyone hates, fumbling sex, and a Harry going a little mental over how wands even work.

    Fic title from "Bitter Sweet Symphony" by The Verve, which was released in 1998. Playlist to get in the late '90s mood.

    Summary

    Draco Malfoy lives a very quiet, lonely life in District 7. He doesn't have many friends and has spent much of his life trying to prove himself. Now, at 21 years old, he's one of the tributes in the hunger games alongside his nemesis, Harry Potter.

    Harry Potter has lived a pretty good life. He has two loving parents, his godfather Sirius and his husband Remus, his best friends Hermione and Ron, and so many more who love him. Sure, the world is crap, but he's been pretty lucky for the most part. But when Ron's name is called at the reaping, he doesn't hesitate to volunteer.

    Sirius Black is not having a good time. He not only has to mentor the games every year after going through them himself, but this time round he has to mentor his godson and his second cousin together. It's a horrible mess, all of it. James and Lily are counting on him to bring Harry home, while Narcissa is counting on him to save Draco.

    There's tension from all sides and Draco and Harry are prepared to fight hard to get home alive. They're not sure what it will take, but whatever it is they're determined to make it.

    Summary

    [Met-a-noi-a]
    1. A transformative change of heart
    2. A fundamental shift in how someone sees something
    ...or someone

    Barty takes a swig of firewhisky and Evan’s attention is drawn to his lips, where a small drop is hanging from Barty’s mouth until he flicks his tongue out to retrieve it. Evan has never understood everyone’s excitement over kissing, he’s always thought it seemed quite unappealing, and really only considered it that one time in fourth year. But right now, it’s all he can do to stop himself from pressing his lips softly to Barty’s. He thinks it would be quite nice.

    Or the one in which resident demisexual, Evan Rosier, realizes he has feelings for the one person he shouldn’t, and Barty Crouch is the most oblivious person in all of Hogwarts.
