    Summary

    Harry Potter doesn't have to be an Auror to know that gifts from his dear 'Aunt' Bellatrix come with horrific hidden curses. He just didn't expect a trip to a spa to be so fraught with hidden dangers.

    "I mean," Harry continued, forcing himself to stand straight and not fidget. "I'm not exactly clear on how this works. My Aunt arranged the portkey for me and her letter was… not exactly forthcoming with details. Your—" Coworker? Golem? "— receptionist mentioned something about a Sylvan package, but I missed what that entailed."

     

    "Of course," the man replied smoothly, taking a step closer and lowering his hands as he saw Harry relax. "I apologize for the confusion. The constructs who staff certain positions here are good at their jobs, but sometimes there's no replacement for a human touch." The corners of his eyes crinkled slightly as his smile broadened, the faint feathering lines the only sign that time had touched him. "My name is Tom. I'll be your spa attendant and your masseuse. It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Potter."

    Summary

    Unsatisfied with his post-war life, Harry decides to get to the root of all of his problems when that root was still working at Borgin and Burkes shop in the late 40s. He’s the Master of Death, damn it, he can do what he wants for once in his life.

    Tom Riddle isn’t particularly happy about working at a small, dingy shop for magical artifacts, no matter how interesting those artifacts are. He’s even less happy when an insufferable stranger sets up the most obnoxious flower shop right across the street.

    What follows would be a romantic comedy, if it weren’t for politics.

    Summary

    The man towers over him, his breath tasting of coldness and fury. Harry had always known that there had to have been a significant reason, why the hat had sorted him into Gryffindor over any other House. He finds, once more, that inexplicable urge to do something recklessly, utterly stupid. High from the power he so rarely wields when confronted with this man, he taunts, “Come on, Tom. Let’s finish this the way we started!” He grips the older wizard close, sees the belated outrage.
    This, certainly, qualifies as reckless stupidity.
    But, he thinks, it might also just be strikingly poetic. “Together!” He shouts and jumps off the building.
    ‘Great!’ thinks Death. ‘Excellent opportunity.’

    This is the story of Death entrapping Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort in a series of reincarnations to undo the chaos the two of them have collectively caused. It’s a story of how two adversaries tangled in fate are forced to learn about themselves and through that, about the other; of them trying to work together for a change - if only, to pursue their individual goals.
