    Summary

    Latin; a dead language with no practical applications except perhaps the deciphering of old texts and as a particularly quaint party trick.

    Thankfully, as Harry finds out, Latin is not as dead as he was first taught when he decided to learn the language. It wouldn't have mattered anyway, of course; he loved Latin, and would have been proud to know it even had it been as useless as it was pretty. But in the world of Wizards, the world of Magic, Harry realizes his rare talent with words is particularly valuable, and allows him to use magic that no one's ever heard of, that no one's ever seen. But as time goes on, and he becomes more and more entangled in the webs spun by those around him, he starts to realize just how deep the magical rabbit hole goes and how dangerous power like his can be.

    All Harry had ever wanted was for the world to make sense.

    Summary

    When Harry Potter does not show up for his first year Hogwarts Wizarding Britain’s world turns to shambles as they uncover exactly what happened to the boy since he vanquished the dark lord. And now the boy has disappeared and they have no idea if he is even alive.

    Years later Hadrian Potter-Peverell is found defending a small store from a death eater attack. No one is prepared for the strong, confident, incredibly powerful boy that is seeped in darkness and has an array of dangerous secrets.

    Around the same time the notorious international assassin group First Blood shows up in Britain…

    And Voldemort? He’s incredibly intrigued both by the dark, uncaring, powerful, sadistic assassin Azrael, and the flirty, sweet, confident and extremely powerful Hadrian Potter-Peverell that shows up out of nowhere.

    Summary

    It’s not the first time a man has ever looked at Eddie a certain way. It’s not the first time a man has ever hit on him or asked him out. It happens every so often. Not a lot. Once every six months or so? If he had to put a number to it?

    But maybe it’s the first time Eddie’s considered saying yes.

    He’s in a much better place than he was a year ago, and he’s never actually dated that many people. He met Shannon when he was nineteen and high school relationships didn’t really count, and he was technically married until not quite four years ago. And there was only one huge, sad mistake since then.

    So, Eddie could say yes.

    He could go on a date with this beautiful, nice man. That is a thing he can do. And maybe it would be good. Maybe it would explain a lot of things he’s always wondered about but never put into practice.

    ~~~

    Eddie dates a man for the first time, Buck is completely Fine(tm) and not at all having a breakdown, and the way to love and happiness is not easy but they find it anyway.
