HP: Lord of Flaws

Cold-Blooded, Brutal Slytherin x Leg-Injured, Eerie Anepith

·

Of those who became famous before officially enrolling, Harry Potter of Hogwarts' Gryffindor House could only claim second place.

The first was a student at Durmstrang's Maskivle Academy, yet there wasn't a single person at Hogwarts who didn't know her name.

Astera Anepith Camerebus. Those who spoke her name could only do so with one emotion: fear.

Only Tom Marvolo Riddle of Hogwarts' Slytherin House dared to act without restraint in her presence.

And likewise, the reverse was true.

"Lord Voldemort."

That was the first thing she said to him in the orphanage's punishment room.

Please note before reading:

1. "" indicates V's thoughts, and [ ] indicates bystanders' thoughts.

2. Both leads are pure-blood supremacists, although the heroine isn't as opposed to Muggles as V and the other Death Eaters. They're two of a kind: truly extreme, badly behaved, chuunibyou villains. This may be upsetting to some readers.

3. The heroine attends Durmstrang, not Hogwarts, though both leads' circumstances will be covered, and they'll have plenty of interaction. Trust me, but I won't spoil anything. Most of the story takes place at the heroine's Durmstrang, to satisfy my craving for martial magic and Dark magic.

4. There are plenty of original elements, since the source material doesn't say much about V's era, the time of the Serpent's ancestor, or Durmstrang.

5. As for whether V is out of character, there's so little about his childhood that the stories I've read all portray him differently. I can't say whether he's out of character or not. I can only say I'll do my best to keep him true to the V in my mind.

6. The leads definitely get a happy ending, and it's a one-on-one pairing. V will still have a snake face later on. I actually find the snake face pretty appealing, too.

7. I don't think this is especially angsty. Neither lead has much of a heart, so it's hard to make things tragic, I guess? A lot of V stories are unbearably tragic, and I can't handle that.

Premise: I want to find Lord V a match.
