Summary
“Look. I don’t know if getting ‘em away from their dad would change what happens. Maybe they’ll grow up to be just fine and the world’ll get hit by an asteroid or a nuke or something. Lot of shit can happen between now and then.”
“But?”
“But if you want to give ‘em a chance to grow up normal, this year’s as good as any.”
Hazel and Agnes escaped the apocalypse, but Agnes isn't content to sit by and let the world be destroyed. Not when it means leaving those seven kids who frequented her donut shop to suffer.

Summary
When Petunia Dursley refused to take Harry in she forfeited his birthright protection, so Dumbledore took the baby to the safest place he knew: Hogwarts.
The applicable staff (mostly just… not Snape) took Harry in on a rotating schedule as he grew from baby to toddler to child. They traded extra credit for babysitting among the older students, and Harry grew up knowing a few dozen different laps that were safe and warm to nap in.
This was a Harry who grew up among books, among old transient walls and learned professors. They gave Binns night duty sometimes, and let him talk young Harry to sleep. This was a Harry whose world changed, on principle, daily. The stairs moved. The walls became doors. You had to keep your eyes open–you had to pay attention. So he did.
He grew up in a school. Knowledge was power, but knowledge was also joy. This was his sanctuary. There was magic in his world from birth.

Summary
“We wanted to be bird feeders.” Number Four grinned, leaning over to pick a chia seed off of Number Six’s ear.
“Like the one we made during crafts.” Number Six elaborated, pushing his brother’s hand away from his face. Grace had used last week’s recreation time to make peanut butter bird feeders with her children. She had carefully written the report asking for permission, justifying her choice with data about gross motor skills and basics of biology instruction.
This had not been in her contingency report. She would need to be more thorough next time.Or, raising seven four-year-olds while having limited free will isn't easy.

Summary
It turns out, she’s not that hard to fix. A couple jumps, a couple nudges to the side—crises averted. Allison can talk, the moon doesn't explode, Pogo isn't strung up on the wall. Vanya still goes deaf in one ear. (She doesn’t tell the others. They don’t ever ask.)
or, Vanya loses her hearing and also everything she thought she knew about herself. This is the aftermath.

Summary
And so Luther, aching, throbbing, wakes his siblings one by one on August 2nd, 2004, moonlight spilling into each of their rooms and tells them that they are going to leave and never come back.
No one protests, refuses , or looks behind them.The Hargreeves run away.
How tabloids and candy sort of end up saving the world.
