    All Hail the Dark Lord, Or Something Idiotic Like That by

    Summary

    Harry Potter had a plan...it wasn't a very good plan, but at least it was simple.

    Step 1: Don't die from the insanely difficult ritual
    Step 2: Cause as much chaos to the timeline as possible before getting killed and/or arrested

    As it goes, it was really simple...until it became clear he wasn't traveling back in time alone. Now the whole plan has to change.

    Step 1: Don't die from the ritual
    Step 2: Kill off current Dark Lord
    Step 3: Establish following to become new Dark Lord
    Step 4: Overthrow Ministry
    Step 5: Cause as much chaos to the timeline as possible
    Step 6: Keep boyfriend alive and not mad at him

    It was a work in progress, but plans hadn't worked out well for Harry in the past regardless. Oh well, it's not like he could make things worse...

    Summary

    When Penelope is exposed as Lady Whistledown, she is disowned by her family and expelled from Society. Desperate, she travels to Romney Hall for sanctuary only to learn that her cousin is dead. After convicting Sir Phillip to allow her to stay to act as nanny and governess to the twins, she builds a quiet, peaceful life for herself in the country under an assumed name. All is going well until Eloise Bridgerton shows up at Phillip’s door and threatens to topple her house of cards.

    Viscount Anthony Bridgerton, widowed six years ago, is furious at his sister for her disappearing act and, with Benedict in tow, gives chase. Little does he know that his life is about to change forever thanks to the petite redhead he thought was well and truly gone from their lives.

    WARNING: This story is Pen/Anthony. Don’t like the ship? Just skip. If you have an open mind, join me on their journey.

    Summary

    “Penelope, please do not be stubborn.” He did not know why, but he felt that if she left, their friendship would be forever tarnished. “This is a great beginning to our story to the Ton. I ran into you on my first day back, the wool was pulled from my eyes, and I realized that while I have been looking at you nearly my entire life, I never truly did see you until I found you laughing over a pile of books outside the stationers.”

    “A lovely story, Mr. Bridgerton,” Penelope said dryly, “but it is certainly not ours and I will not let it be mine. If you don’t mind, I really must be going.”

    “Pen-”

    “Good day Mr. Bridgerton.
