Summary
Companion Piece, Goldie and Spring's side.
--
It's senior year for Goldie and his friends, but things turn out much differently this year. A new class called Advanced Senior Science is being instructed by a new teacher named Mike Schmidt, an eccentric doctor who decides to assign their partners this year. And who else does Goldie get but his unofficial enemy, "Springtrap" Salvage? However, something strange is going on with Springtrap and his friends... and if Goldie has to work all year with this guy, he wants to know what it is. Along the way, he discovers things that he otherwise never would have imagined.
Spring is just a socially awkward rabbit who doesn't want to be separated from his friends, but everything gets messed up when he's partnered up with "Goldie" Fazbear. Now, trying to juggle school, friends, taking care of his little brother, doctor visits, and keeping his economic status a secret from his classmates, he must add keeping his nosy partner in the dark on top of everything else. That becomes a little hard when he begins to realize this popular guy isn't nearly as bad as he had always thought, and without even realizing it he begins opening up his world to him.

Companion Piece, Freddy and Alfred's side.
--
Freddy Fazbear has always had it pretty easy in life; with a loving family and wonderful friends, he never really understood that there were people less fortunate. However, when his new, eccentric science teacher assigns him to be Alfred Fischbach's lab partner, he begins noticing certain things about the other bear. He's quiet and withdrawn, yet there's a fire in his eyes and a bruise around his wrist that looks suspiciously like a handprint. Despite everything he has ever felt about the other, Freddy finds himself very concerned for his new lab partner.
Alfred could never claim to have a good life, with a drunk father and an uncaring mother and a strange inability to say what he wanted to say, but he honestly believed he had the best friends in the entire world. He didn't need anyone else... so when the "Fazcrew" begin poking around in their lives, he does not appreciate it. He especially does not appreciate it when he finds himself becoming friends with them, and when everything starts to unravel before his very eyes, the only ones who could pick up the pieces were the ones pulling the carpet out from under their feet.

Companion Piece, Bonnie and Blu's Side.
--
Bonnie Henderson was popular, talented, had wonderful friends and loving parents, and he was observant. He never much cared for "Springtrap" and his friends, but when he gets paired up with "Blu" Rodriguez in science, he immediately realizes that something isn't right with the younger rabbit- and by extension, the rabbit's friends. Determined to not be a bystander while his classmates' lives fall apart, he begins getting to know the unpopular, close-knit group and finds that they're actually pretty fun. Now if only he could convince them to get help before it's too late.
Blu was bright and positive and happy. His classmates knew him as the annoyingly optimistic kid. His friends knew it to be him desperately clinging to a reason to live. His friends are the only people he cares about, so when he gets partnered with Bonnie Henderson he is not happy one bit. Unfortunately, his new lab partner is much more observant than he would like. Wanting to keep everything from falling apart, Blu does whatever he can think of to keep Bonnie at a distance, but doing this becomes that much harder when he realizes he actually enjoys the other's company.

Companion Piece, Foxy and Mangle's side.
--
"Foxy" Jones was the son of a successful businesswoman and a successful supermodel. He loved his mothers as much as they loved him; the only people who came even close to his parents were his friends. In science, he is partnered with the strange, aloof "Mangle" Blanc, someone he has never spoken to nor ever liked. Something doesn't seem right here, and at first Foxy is determined to not get involved, but as his friends' connections with their own partners grow, so does his- and so does his concern. Realizing that nothing is alright, he strives to become someone that Mangle can trust.
Mangle wasn't like their classmates and they were just fine with that. There were people who loved them just the way they were and those people gave them a reason to hang on. However, when Dr. Schmidt assigns them to be partners with "Foxy" Jones, they find themself slowly being drawn out of their shell and out of their dream world, being given a chance to have something more. But it's frightening, being pulled into reality by someone you don't even know- someone you've hated your entire life. And becoming friends with the people pulling your life apart was even scarier.

Companion Piece, Chica and Chii's side.
--
"Chica" Sanchez has loving family and friends. She's musically gifted, is an excellent chef, and she's sporty so it isn't much surprise that she's well liked around school. When she and "Chii" Kain become lab partners, she doesn't complain despite not liking the more feminine chicken. However, almost immediately she discovers that they have much more in common than either of them had thought, and it isn't long before she realizes that something in Chii's life isn't okay. She takes action; she won't just watch as her new lab partner's life shatters into pieces too small to gather.
Chii liked to think she was fortunate compared to her friends, and because of that she does her best to be their shoulder to lean on. Her aversion to physical contact makes this difficult but she does her best. Then she becomes lab partners with the last person she ever wanted to be with, and she hates that they have so much in common despite their contradicting lives. As she becomes fonder of her new partner and her friends, she finds her world opening up- but with her world opening, it all starts falling apart and she isn't sure she's strong enough to hold on through it.

Summary
After years of enduring endless abuse from his father, Adrien finally snapped. In a quick, heated moment, his anger made him commit the unthinkable: murder. Scared, Adrien called the one person he trusted most in the world-Marinette-and together they hid his father's body, both swearing to never speak of that day again. Adrien and Marinette think they're finally in the clear, that is, until, three things happen:
1- He discovers a secret basement under his house.
2- An unknown number starts texting him, threatening to expose his secret
3- Felix unexpectedly shows up, demanding claim to a specific brooch.
How far will these two go to keep their secret hidden when authorities get involved and an investigation is underway? To make matters worse, Adrien believes he's going crazy... as he starts seeing his dead father.

Harry Potter and the Realistic Events of the Chamber of Secrets (revisited) by ReverendKilljoy
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
29 Aug 2025
Tags
Summary
This is a reimagining of "Chamber of Secrets"—faithful to the bones of J.K.R.’s original plot but rewritten with deeper psychological insight, sharper emotional realism, and a keener awareness of trauma, isolation, and identity. This project continues where Philosopher’s Stone (Revisited) left off, following Harry through his second year at Hogwarts, where the danger is subtler, the magic stranger, and the cracks in the world—and in Harry himself—have begun to show.
Why revisit this book? "Chamber of Secrets" is often treated as a transitional novel: darker than the first, but still just a step toward the grander narrative. But at its heart, it’s a ghost story. A diary. A horror. And it’s the year Harry begins to realise that being “the Boy Who Lived” doesn’t protect him from being unseen, unheard, or unwell. This version leans into that. Into what it feels like to be a child waiting for rescue that may never come.
If you’re new here, don’t expect a wholesale reinvention of canon—this is still the story of Harry Potter. But it’s a version where emotions linger longer, cruelty cuts deeper, and magic doesn’t always fix what’s broken.
