    Summary

    AU. Harry goes to Hogwarts for his first year, carrying a magical trunk that carries part of the essence of Grimmauld Place with him and secure in Phineas Nigeullus’s promise to have the portraits watch out for him. He’s a bit puzzled by how everyone expects him to act, but, well, that’s not his problem. He has tons already, he doesn’t need more.

    Summary

    AU. Harry accidentally Apparates to an empty Grimmauld Place when he’s nine instead of to the top of the school roof when he escapes Dudley’s gang. The house is empty except for portraits and sometimes a speaking wooden face, and Harry has to kill his own food, and there’s something nasty in the cellars, and some of the portraits are mad. But this is still a vast improvement over the Dursleys.

    Summary

    He's driving when a random thought strikes him that he saw a red mark on the babysitter's forehead. At the same time, he realizes he didn't ask his name. He sighs; how rude of him, really. His mother would surely be furious with him and say those weren't the manners she taught him. However, twenty minutes late, Shen Yuan is walking into the hotel where the meeting—and later, dinner—will be held when he realizes that, even if he didn't get a good look at the man, his dark clothes seemed to reach the floor like a dress.
    Or an ancient robe.

    ...or, the emergency babysitter turns out to be Luo Binghe, who's definitely giving Shen Yuan the creeps by calling him Shizun and being creepy. Shen Yuan has absolutely nothing to do with Shen Qingqiu, what the hell! Does he look like the kind of scum villain who shoves his young disciple into the Endless Abyss and acts like trash!? No thanks, he wants all his limbs! He's no Shizun, Luo Binghe, stop calling him that!
