wrong step, the: (would be not to start this exodus) by maplewoodmoth

Summary
Re-write of my previous story in the series:
To be human is a complicated situation. To be a person? To be seen? Hagrid knows just as well as anyone that simply existing in a world that has marked you as “just enough” yet still “other” is a hard hand to be dealt. He knows that unfortunately, ‘Nice’ and ‘Good’ do not equate to ‘Kindness’ and ‘Compassion’.
Sometimes the Kindest thing you can do, in the world you live in, is to destroy it, whether you mean to or not (you definitely mean to).
Sometimes the only way to live in a ‘Just’ world is to make it with your own bare hands. Tearing down the reality you live in, and rebuilding better and more solid, brick by goddamn brick.
It’s impossible to do it alone, but well. Sometimes it starts with a gesture, or a small word of solidarity.
Sometimes it starts with stealing a person.
Sometimes, it never really ends, just begins a new cycle.Hopefully it's a better cycle, this time.
This time, it is.Series

Summary
Anko goes after Orochimaru. She kicks ass in the process and heals. Not in that particular order and in completely unconnected events, she learns what it means to be human again. Or at least what that means for her.

Summary
It's not that Albus knows how an Obscurial is formed- all the knowledge he has is based on barely slapdash rhetoric and guesswork. In this universe, he doesn't know, and he doesn't care. Harry's physical safety is, to him, of the utmost importance, more than any emotional or physical well-being.
The tragedy about Obscurials, is that as powerful as they are, as dangerous as they are, no one stops to think how it is that they came to be - only blaming it on fear, bigotry, and a lack of understanding.

By and By: The Circle Unchained (Obscurial Harry Remix) by maplewoodmoth
Fandom Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
12 Oct 2021
Summary
The tragedy about Obscurials, is that as powerful as they are, as dangerous as they are, no one stops to think how it is that they came to be - only blaming it on fear, bigotry, and a lack of understanding.
What do family ties mean, to a person who has renounced them? Blood means nothing, after all, to a person who has already abandoned those connections years ago. Family, which Dumbledore never fully understands, is a choice, not a given, and blood is the same way. It has to be freely given, freely chosen, or it will not work.

Summary
“Have you ever thought about getting one?” Lyonel asked.
Dunk furrowed his brow at Lyonel’s vague question until it dawned on him. “Oh, fuck off—”
“Rude!” Lyonel exclaimed in delight. “How rude you are to me for asking but a simple question!”
“A hedge knight with an earring is asking to be robbed,” Dunk drawled.
A concession turns into a confession, and Duncan wears both very well.
-OR-
How an earring altered the trajectory of House Baratheon.

Summary
There might come a day when Lyonel did not feel so covetous over Ser Duncan the Tall, but it was not that day. Not when seeing the sunrise paint itself across Dunk’s skin still felt like a blessing from the gods. Not when he knew miles of bare pale, freckled skin waited for him in his quarters.
Lyonel's patience pays off when Ser Duncan the Tall makes a surprise visit to Storm's End without his squire present.
