Summary
When 11-year-old Tom Riddle finally arrives at Platform 9 and ¾, he meets fifth-year Prefect Harry Evans, a Muggleborn Slytherin at the top of his year. Harry is everything that Tom wants to be—Harry knows exactly what it’s like to be special, intelligent, and have no one understand you…
Harry Potter, who has de-aged himself and gone back in time in order to guide Tom onto the right path, may find that his efforts to win Tom over have worked a little too well.

Summary
The suit swings on its hangar as Shiro backs out of his driveway, but it doesn't fall, it holds on. And soon enough, the road is straight and the suit is still, casting a long shadow across the backseat of Shiro's car. His headlights only shine so far ahead, but he knows this part of the drive by heart. Too well, like the way his heart is beating too fast. He takes one turn, and then another, and another, heartbeat gradually slowing as the freeway opens up in front of him. There’s not much traffic this late at night. The road becomes less familiar as the hours stack up, and somehow it’s a relief to not know exactly what comes next. If he looks in his rearview mirror, he can see the suit hanging there, his sole companion. He’ll snap another picture of it soon.

A roadtrip au about a journey to take back something stolen, and finding more than that.

Summary
The hands on his wrists, and his chains clinking, and then suddenly he’s dead weight slamming into the ground, into his own pool of drying blood, aggravating every injury and tearing a second-nature scream from his throat. He couldn’t move if he wanted to, laying there with his infected eye-socket in cooling sanguine fluid.
Majima vaguely registers a hand on his shoulder, carefully rolling him over onto his back. His head doesn’t touch the cold floor, held up by something.
And he sees, finally, in the haze, a pair of soft brown eyes staring down at him. They’re all he makes out.
Someone is speaking once more, and he knows he must be dreaming that same old dream again, because he whispers from a broken body, “Saejima?”
But this time, right as his sight starts fading out, his limbs turning to lead, he remembers the eyes creasing in stark confusion.
-
What if Majima was saved from the Hole and ended up in Kazama's custody? What if he couldn't let go of his loyalty to Shimano? And what if he met Kiryu Kazuma before the Empty Lot, before he went Mad Dog?

Summary
I can't lose this, Kiryu thought desperately, not again.
Miraculously, he was getting another chance, and he would never forgive himself if he didn’t take it, regardless of what came next. Despite everything, Majima still had feelings for him, and it made him feel hopeful for the first time in years. Maybe together they could make everything better. A sudden, profound realization struck him like a bolt of lightning—this was his last chance to turn back from the grim, lonely path he was walking on.

Do all love stories have to end when the couple finally gets together?

Summary
“Kiryu-san, I do not know what or how long it’ll take for you to put your trust in me as you did then, but I assure you that I intend to repay the debt I owe you.”
“...You don’t owe me anything,” Kiryu said. “I failed you.”
Tachibana took a step towards him. “Clearly, you didn’t.”
Tachibana comes back into Kiryu's life after twenty-two years with a promise that he'll do everything he can to ensure that Kiryu gets to keep the life he had worked hard to build—starting with purchasing the land Morning Glory's on. But, it sounds too good to be true to Kiryu, so they strike a deal: if Tachibana can win his family's trust, then Kiryu will let him buy the deed to their land.Their arrangement allows them to have a second chance at happiness, but before they can take it, they'll need to let themselves be open to the possibility that they’re allowed to keep it this time.

Summary
'Before you,' he said, 'you can see more women than warriors. Cowardly, unarmed, they will give up the moment they see the weapons and bravery of their conquerors who have given them such a drubbing so many times before.' (Tacitus, Annals XIV.36)
The first time Clarke sees the Head Girl she’s sitting on a throne, presiding over her dominion with a piercing stare and a crown of braids in her hair. Her warriors are spread at her feet, a multitude of them, all long-haired and wild and clad in identical brown regalia. There’s something of the sacred about her, like the crimson cloak draped across her shoulders and her divinity are one and the same.
Or at least it feels that way.
British girls' boarding school AU. Obviously.

Summary
“First time with a man?”
Kiryu’s cheeks burned. He could lie. And maybe if it had been anybody else, if it were a pretty hostess or that Poppo cashier with the nose ring that always gave him an extra hot bun, he would have. But this was Majima. He hated being lied to. It felt wrong to lie to him.
“First time, period,” he muttered.
