Summary
“No post on Sundays” Uncle Vernon announced happily, “No damn letters today-”
Something came whizzing down the kitchen chimney as he spoke and caught him sharply on the back of the head. The next moment, thirty or forty letters came pelting out of the fireplace like bullets.
“That does it!” he snapped, his beady little eyes focused solely on Harry, “It’s you that they want. And they won’t stop coming after us until you’re… gone”.
Harry didn't like the sound of that.
“But Vernon, we can’t! You heard what that- that despicable old man told us!”
“Don’t worry, pet” Vernon said, his nasty grin triumphant, “I’ll leave him someplace so far away that those freaks will never trace him back to us. There’s an institute up north, for these- these hopeless cases and whatnot - St Brutus's Secure Centre for Boys. I’ll leave him there, and then we can get back to our nice, normal life”.Or, the one where Harry doesn't attend Hogwarts in first year but finds his way to the wizarding world anyway, and this changes everything.

Summary
Newt Scamander's mark is in the form of a panther, wild and ferocious, the black ink running elegantly down his wand arm and ending with the thick tail wrapped possessively around his wrist.
Percival Graves' corporeal Patronus just so happens to be a silver panther.
Too bad the magical community in America has discarded the notion of soulmates and soul marks altogether, and Newt's creatures really aren't helping the situation by repeatedly stealing Graves' things.
(Canon-divergence where Newt rescues the real Percival Graves, they face off Grindelwald together, and Newt decides to take Credence in and set up shop above Kowalski's bakery, much to Mr. Graves' frustration.)

Summary
When video evidence of Marinette Dupain-Cheng actually pushing Lila Rossi down the stairs one Monday morning surfaces, it starts off a chain of events that Marinette would love to call one big cosmic joke.
In the wake of Hawkmoth’s defeat, there’s quite literally no akuma for her to blame a bizarre duplicate of herself on. With tensions mounting and accusations being thrown her parents opt to reach out to the biological mother who gave her up for adoption, if only to get her out of an increasingly hostile situation.
There’s just one problem with that: that being her biological mother is dead.
Luckily for her, her biological mother’s “friend”, Bruce Wayne, is willing to take her in and give her shelter in America away from anyone and everyone who knows her.
Yet when her duplicate follows her to a new country and starts causing her more problems, she’s forced to dig deeper into the strange mystery unfolding around her – and the answer to the matter isn’t quite as simple as she’d wish.
(or; in which Marinette is the biological daughter of Selina Kyle and Bruce Wayne, whom almost everyone believes to be a bully and a liar – and that’s only the tip of the iceberg)
