    Summary

    "I can send you back. Not to your body, but to one many years ago. Harry, you must fix the natural order of Death, on my behalf."

     

    Harry's breath faltered. It was all so confusing... Harry had died. He had died and spoken to Death and suddenly he was standing in Hogwarts, in 1942, and the Sorting Hat had just pronounced him Slytherin. Death had chuckled at that.

    Summary

    Harry knew he didn't put his name in the Goblet of Fire, but no one believes him, except for Hermione. Ron abandoned him when he needed him the most and everyone was out to get him for wanting fame, which he never wanted it in the first place. He was done with the wizarding world. He thought he found a place where he belonged, but it turned out the world was against him from the very start. He wanted to leave for good, but how?

    Well Harry found a loophole in the Triwizard Tournament. Two actually.

    1. A magical guardian can withdraw the unwilling champion.

    2. A blood relative - any blood relative, even a distant relative, can take him out of the tournament if they think Harry was put there against his will.

    But there is just a couple of problems; It turned out that Dumbledore is his magical guardian and he would wanted Harry to participate in the tournament, which means Dumbledore has control over everything Harry has and is keeping everything tight lip. Also there was no way the Dursley's would help him. They would likely see him die in that death tournament.

    If he doesn't participate, he would loose his magic for good.

    Summary

    Decades have passed since the end of the war but life has not been kind to Harry. He had dreamt of more but every chance at happiness he’d ever had was ripped away from him. He longed to join his loved ones in the next life but even that was out of reach for him.

    In a last attempt at dying, Harry bleeds out on the cold marble floor, praying to the gods to take him. Instead, he wakes up in his 14-year-old body.

    With a manipulative old goat, a new improved Dark Lord, and a mission from Death, will this new life be worth living?

    Harry isn’t sure but he certainly doesn’t want life to be easy for the ones who wronged him. Revenge has never tasted sweeter than when they don’t know it’s coming.

    On hiatus… sorry, it’s not dropped but it’ll probably be a while before I start posting again

    Summary

    "A second chance,“ Death said.

    Harry stopped in front of a bench and turned to look at the being. "A second chance at what?"

    "Life."

    Harry laughed bitterly. "Because that has worked out so great the first time?"

    Death tilted its head. "You've changed," it stated.

    "Life does that to you," Harry said and his mind felt clearer than ever, "Or should I say the last seven years. I never really left this place, have I? I lived a life feeling not quite dead and not alive either," he spat.

    "I know how you feel," Death said after a moment, grinning.

    "Oh, do you," Harry retorted and pierced Death with a look.

    The being's smirk widened as it leaned closer.
    "Bored."
    Years after the war, Harry Potter lives an apathetic life. When Death offers him a second chance he takes it.
    Accompanied by the being, Harry travels back to the summer before Sirius dies. Inside his younger body and the memories of an older self, Harry realizes that being connected to Death may have twisted his morals a little more than expected.
    Seeking to make up for the boredom of past years, Harry isn't above carving his own space between two sides to even out the playing field.

    Summary

    Harry isn’t the Boy-Who-Lived, but his parents still died, and Albus Dumbledore, concerned that Death Eaters might seek the boy’s death, cast a powerful charm on him to make wizards ignore him before Harry was left with the Dursleys. Except, with the Elder Wand in play, the charm was far too powerful, and made others essentially forget Harry existed when not directly interacting with him. Sorted into Ravenclaw at Hogwarts, Harry lives a contented life with no one either loving or hating him…until the charm breaks on his seventeenth birthday, and he’s suddenly plunged directly into the middle of a living world at war.

    Summary

    Harry is an elf. No, he's not a bloody house elf. He lived in a place where they had got him confused with a house elf for nearly six years. They had him doing all the chores and he slept in a cupboard. Not a particularly cheerful cupboard, either. But he's not a house elf. He's a regular elf, thank you. Come on, people. It's like you're not wizards or something. PreHogwarts, NOT a creature fic. Character study.

    Summary

    Harry spends the whole summer before fourth year feeling restless. He chalks it up to the weird dreams he's been having, assuming Voldemort is responsible. And for some dreams, that's true - but what about the other ones? The ones that feel... familiar?

    Back at school, things change one morning in September, when he and three other students wake up with the memories of the four Hogwarts founders in their heads. They don't know why they've returned, or how it happened, but they know one thing - they changed the Wizarding World before, and they're going to do it again. It's about time they shook things up a bit.

    Summary

    Harry’s occlumency reveals his disturbing home life which sets off a chain reaction that cannot be undone. Snape finds himself begrudgingly caring about the bespectacled boy, Harry discovers what it's like to have adults who care, and Hermione finds herself becoming an accidental crime lord. Draco Malfoy is very much along for the ride, in all senses of the word.

    A ridiculous blend of hilarity and tragedy, Another Mind Game is the multi-faceted fanfiction you didn't know you wanted but will absolutely adore.

    Featuring a sassy Harry Potter, good friends, and a great deal of sarcasm.

    There are also ridiculous endnotes if you make it far enough. (You can do it!)

    Summary

    Sick of the Dursleys and resolved to missing his few friends if it means getting away from the people of the Wizarding World and their nosy whispers, Harry gets the idea to leave it all behind for a while, just a bit, just for a rest. Like a camping trip, except he’ll take enough provisions for a year or so...maybe some plants, seeds and things for a little garden. Maybe some time away from the things that weigh him down will help the constant highs and lows he’s been feeling for a while now. Just a little break.

    (Or, the one where Harry says TTFN and takes himself off on an indefinite vacation and upsets a few very careful plans.)

    Summary

    Based on "Hatal Fart Attack" by Corwalch, "Royal Ward" follows the changes in Harry's life after he gains the personal attention of the Queen, an event which causes Vernon to die of a heart attack. My thanks to Corwalch for permission to write a sequel. Reading "Hatal Fart Attack" first is recommended, but not absolutely required. Please note that this story begins in 1989, shortly before Harry's 9th birthday and several years before Prince Charles and Princess Diana divorced. Warnings may change as the story progresses.
