  3. Summary

    An exploration of the themes and tropes within the Omegaverse genre, typically those centered around the definition of gender in terms of what defines and differentiates an alpha and an omega. Basically, I don't entirely play by the stereotypical rules.

    Summary

    When Harry Potter gets resorted into Slytherin in the middle of his fifth year, all doubts vanish: the Ministry is corrupt, and Voldemort is pulling the strings. Between unfriendly roommates, Umbridge's sadistic detentions and disturbing Occlumency lessons, Harry's life gradually becomes a nightmare in which loneliness seems to be his only companion.

    Meanwhile, Draco unexpectedly finds himself caught up in a task he did not ask for, forcing him to face strenuous choices between love and hate—between life and death.

    (non-con element only in one chapter, and not between Draco and Harry)

    Summary

    Loki is given room and board, which is much more than he can ask for from people who would have his head on a stick. He understands it’s Romanoff’s doing, her perceived debt to him extending to the rest of them.

    “He brought me back to life, Tony. It’s the least we can do.”

    Funny how Loki has made a decision without ulterior motive for the first time in his life and yet no one would believe he did it just because he could. No one asks, anyway. Not even Thor.

    Summary

    Loki’s fingers, pale, thin things with the nails chewed off, dig into the flesh of his own palm. It’s hard to reconcile the Loki who killed eighty people in one day with the Loki that’s now sitting next to them, who’s trying to reduce the points of impact by holding himself tightly. It makes Tony wonder if maybe they were wrong about a few things.
