After Voldemort's return in Harry Potter's 4th Year, Dumbledore decides that to win the war against the Dark, the Light must actually fight. So he does what he can to aid the boy who may be their only hope. Another powerful Light figure wishes to help Harry as well, even if he is a bird. Slightly Badass!Harry and Badass!Dumbledore, also Darker!Everybody. H/G R/Hr RL/NT and others.

After the Final Battle, Harry can finally live his own life. Except he doesn't know how. He decides he needs a break from it all, but it ends up longer than he expected. Will his friends and family still be there when he returns? What happened to him while he was away? Is his job finally done? AU, HP/GW. Rated M because they're all adults, mostly.

After the final battle, Harry leaves for France to hunt fleeing death eaters, leaving the people he loves behind. But was it the right decision? Canon until the epilogue. M for a reason, eventually. My first published story.
