AN: Sorry about this late posting but I've been busy with school and all that. As I said before toady28 is my beta. And this is only a part of something I'll be posting as a different story but is still part of the drabbles here, in a way. It's more of prologue to this. I'll be posting it later and it wont be a crossover story with the name 'Death Only Brings Us Closer' but the title might change later on, it depends . Again sorry for being late.

Harry Potter, the son of James and Lily Potter, The-Boy-Who-Lived, The-Man-Who-Conquered, Saviour of the Wizarding World; those were the title he was known for back home. He was never known as just Harry, Lily and James' son. The titles given to him by the Wizarding World means so little to him, they also seem inaccurate for his taste (really 'The Saviour of the Wizarding World' he had only defeated Voldemort and he was only terrorizing England during his reign as the Dark Lord).
And his accomplishments? What has he accomplished?
He had only taken the life, or what's left of it, of man, if he can still qualify as one, who was a born from their society's negligence and prejudice.
In his opinion the Wizarding World of England should hardly celebrate the demise of a dark lord for too long really; they should focus on the fact that that now the current dark lord is dead they have to prepare for the new one that would soon rise. But they seemed to be more than willing to blind themselves.
Ironically the title has most sense and the one that's the most dangerous that he's gotten is 'The Master of Death', but it's one that he'd rather not share with anyone. Just from the implications of that title is…terrifying and very dangerous. People might actually kill to take that title away from him, 'The Saviour of the Wizarding World' be damned.
Blending in was never his forte, so when it became apparent that he for all intent and purposes stopped aging, he knew that blending in the Wizarding World would be harder. Sure, there are ways he can hide the fact that he doesn't age anymore but there will always be wizards, witches and anyone with a way higher I.Q. than him can easily deduce that he was hiding something. They could find by accident, while he was having one of those regular medical examinations, worse they could be sensitive to the magic around them and easily sense something's off. One thing might lead to another and next thing he knows, he might be strapped down on a table in a secret lab, being tested on.

Somehow he had the guts to tell Luna his situation. He knew she wouldn't judge, much, and well the only other person who can really understand just how deep the severity of his title was Hermione. And as of the moment she was busy with finding with the arrival of her and Ron's baby.
But Luna for all her…quirkiness can be strangely blunt if she wants to, being told to grow a pair and just tell their friends his problems so they can all help, that they weren't children anymore and can handle the truth. That wasn't how she phrased it but that was the general idea of what she said, this was also a lot less vulgar. She was right though, they weren't children and they've been together through thick and thin, they've been through war for Merlin's sake, they'd understand.
And when he told them, three months after Hermione gave birth to their first born, James Sirius (after Hermione's great-grandfather Gregory James Grant an army man and after Sirius because Hermione and Ron it owed to him), they were shocked, very shocked, but the shock they felt soon melted to resignation. 'Only you Harry, only you,', 'We should've known,', and 'This isn't really that surprising anymore with you luck, mate. ' was all they could say and well he was miffed with that. But he was glad they understood and accepted him, so they began to plan and look for solutions so the people in general won't notice Harry not aging. Ron thought that why not he go travel the world?
And why not?
AN: Don't hate me but I cut it here, I'll be posting the more complete version of this later in 'Death Only Brings Us Closer'.
