Summary
Harry Potter is seventeen when he dies and somehow finds himself in a train station. He listens to Dumbledore explain all the things he wishes he knew before, sits in King's Cross, and wonders if he really has to go back. Harry's very, very tired, and he wishes it wasn't so simple: die and move on or go back to a world that you don't know how to survive. Killing Voldemort is swell and all, but he's not much looking forward to everything after that. To grieving, growing, loving, living.
Considering the ticket in his hands, Harry decides that he's tired of going along with decisions other people make for him. This is his party, his train station, his choice. Why not make it a happier one? One that makes everything so far worth living through. He rubs at the ticket and watches it change with satisfaction. Hogwarts to Godric's Hollow, October 31st, 1981. King's Cross Station, one-way ticket.
And because he's Harry Potter, he does the unthinkable. He gives the ticket to his godfather.
In which Sirius Black wakes up in 1981, nothing makes sense, and magic can make the impossible possible.
