Years later, a changed man returns to the Wizarding world under a new identity, determined to unravel the conspiracy that destroyed him. But vengeance grows complicated when he crosses paths with Hermione Granger, now entangled in secrets of her own. As buried truths resurface, Draco must decide whether love is a weakness or the only thing worth saving.

Summary
On the 10.02.1929, the world draws a breath when lives hangs in the balance. The vision has come to pass as Gellert Grindelwald foresaw it, though, in the after, that is of fairly little consequence. There is only Death, and his antidote, a life of torment. The spark grew to flame, and the inferno consumed it all. There is only ashes, now.
Meanwhile, two unlikely teams attempt their utmost to ensure the survival of their friends- nay, family, learning a great many things about those they love so fiercely. If all else fails, one can always rely on one's great-aunt. One's great-cousin! One's... godchild and adopted family? Or... on one's mother...? One's grandpa? Or one's... half-sibling?! Wait, we're getting ahead of ourselves.
Explore a new era between the lowest of lows and the highest of highs, spanning from Hogwarts to Nurmengard, and India to Ilvermorny, from second chances under Parisian starlight to dragonfyre in Hungary, from a crypt in Yorkshire to the bowels of Hogsmeade. After all, many mysteries await.
And, maybe, just maybe, there is something to the Dumbledore family legend, a companion coming to any member in need. And in direst need, perhaps some can simply become phoenixes themselves.

Summary
“It did not satisfy him to serve as a passive oracle. Where others saw prophecy as inescapable doom, he saw a weapon. The Sight, to him, was no longer merely a gift. It had become a skill.”
In the highest tower of Nurmengard, Gellert Grindelwald plays his violin, not to entertain, but to summon the future. Through its restless defiance, he reaches not for the indulgence of music, but for the discipline it demands and the visions it yields. This is not performance. This is control made absolute.
A character study in prophecy, power, and precision.

Summary
Seamus Finnegan has always loved fire, but seldom found himself able to control it. After his mother dies when he's five, Seamus learns she has arranged to have him sent to his only living magical relative — Gellert Grindelwald. In Nurmengard Castle, Seamus continued to develop his affinity for fire and explosions, to his grandfather's amusement, and when it comes time to go to Hogwarts, Grindelwald leaves him with the instruction to give Albus hell — but not to let him die unless it's from an aneurysm Seamus gives him.
(Inspired by a throwaway line from Harry Potter and the Den of Snakes in which a character reports gossip that Seamus Finnegan is actually Gellert Grindelwald's grandson. More tags will be added as the story progresses.)

Summary
Harry Potter wasn't the only person who had always expected Professor McGonagall to be there. Irascible and inflexible, perhaps, but always dependably, solidly present. With her father's cast-iron moral sense and a heart of gold buried beneath a stern exterior. This story focuses on the inner workings of the woman who was never far from Dumbledore's right hand side.

Summary
What precisely happens when a spark turns to a flame? It is 18:16 in the afternoon on a sunny late September Saturday in 1928, and Albus Dumbledore has once more done the unthinkable – attach himself lips-first to the man who happens to be the love of his life, and his biggest enemy simultaneously.
Although, this, of course, is a lie. They are neither, and both, and so much less, and so much more. They ARE. They are! They are... something? Well, Gellert Grindelwald quite certainly knows what they are, and are to be. So does Albus. Pity, only, that these two [imbeciles] never do have a heart-to-heart to see whether their opinions for once actually align...
Accompany them as they fool the ministries on numerous occasions, break people out of prison, fight for the rights of Lycanthropes, dance at a variety of balls, explore the concept of exile, eat, of course, numerous delicacies, make ground-breaking discoveries, commit crimes and do right by people, meet old friends and make new enemies, and just overall somehow stay alive through it all.
But beware: Not all fae-tale stories have a happy ending...
