    Summary

    Harry pressed his lips together and simmered down, but refused to apologize for what had been a perfectly reasonable question. “What kind of solution?” he asked, highly skeptical of this out-of-nowhere proposal. “And why would you even care?”

    ”Call it a personal interest in maintaining the current excellent character of my neighborhood.” Riddle shrugged one shoulder casually, but his eyes were now looking Harry up and down like he’d just been doing with the apartment; the effect was more distracting by an order of magnitude. “As for my offer—why, it’s a simple quid pro quo. I provide you with the funds to pay your rent, with the option to repeat the transaction in future months—“

    ”Why would you ever do that, it’s like a thousand quid and you don’t even know me—“

    ”…and in return, you allow me to take certain…liberties.” His gaze now strayed unmistakably downward, as he leaned against the doorframe and…holy fuck, did he just lick his lips!?

    Or: Faced with an unexpected financial reversal, Harry can’t make the rent on his nice new apartment. His neighbor might just be able to help him out.

    Summary

    Summary

    ”Are you my angel?” Tom whispers.

    Harry kills Voldemort, and the next thing he knows, he’s being dragged back in time—again and again—to Tom Riddle’s childhood.

    Tom’s all alone in a world that doesn’t care about him. With every return, his obsession with Harry grows.

    Tom’s convinced Harry’s there to save him—that he’s meant to be his. And the boy who will become a monster?

    He’ll stop at nothing to keep him.

    (Harry thought he was done with Voldemort—but it seems Tom Riddle isn’t finished with him.)

    Summary

    Tom had always considered it particularly petty on Albus Dumbledore’s part in assigning Tom to be the one to introduce muggleborn first years to Hogwarts. He was sure that Albus thought it was some sort of teaching moment, exposing Tom to muggles repeatedly as though he’d gain some sort of empathy and moral epiphany whenever he met a half-decent parent.

    However, it didn’t matter how many muggles he met or how many of them actually tried to be a decent parent to their magical children. There were more failures than successes, more broken homes and troubled children than not.

    And it seemed to be getting worse every year.

    Professor Tom Riddle discovers the child that was thought to be a squib is not. When opportunity presents itself so neatly, he is not one to shy away from grabbing onto it.
