    Summary

    Look, the cost of living in Los Angeles is insane, and public servants make nothing. Lacking savings, an inheritance, or a spouse with a high-earning job, Buck turns to a side gig to help pay is rent. And what side gig is perfect for a gorgeous man with no shame?

    If you guess stripping, you win.

    (or 5 times the fire fam found out about Buck's side job, and one time his side job found out about his real one.)

    Summary

    A gift is what Death called it, Harry still isn't really sure about that. After reincarnating and living so many lives, it really shouldn't have come as a surprise to find himself in the middle of the war that had started it all.
    The most logical thing to do, of course, is to adopt himself.
    What could go wrong?

    Summary

    Harry Potter has never been normal. Even before he was born, he was a child of prophecy. So no part of his life could be called normal in the slightest. When given the chance to have a 'normal' life, does he even know what that means? No, he's gone through too much to even try, and he's too tired to care. It's too bad everyone expects him to be the upstanding son and heir of the Potter family when he's never had family before in his life though.

    Also, the baby is a little difficult to explain. The baby who may eventually turn into Lord Voldemort...no, nature vs. nurture and all, and Harry plans to nurture the hell out of this kid.

    Summary

    When your options are:

    (A) Being a sheep for the Light side and never making it past seventeen again.

    Or:

    (B) Joining the dark side as a political pawn to crush the hope children everywhere.

    Life looks a little bleak, and with Tom tagging along as her unborn baby (really? Couldn't at all think of a better plan than 'let's make everyone think the Girl-Who-Lived was raped at ten') that bleakness seems to grow.

    So, armed with foreknowledge and a healthy dose of I'M EVEVEN! STOP TRYING TO MAKE ME A MURDERER! Haryana decides to make a third option:

    (C) Use the insane amount of wealth and recourses people gifted her for murdering Tom the first time and launch a secret campaign to buy wizarding Brittan so that no matter who wins she's be on top.

    Summary

    Harry and Hermione, fresh from a wizarding war and with no one else in this new world, steal themselves a father. Well, steal is a little harsh. He agreed after all. Granted he was a little intoxicated and they were vague on the details but hey, other families have started under those conditions.
    Shenanigans ensue.
