    Summary

    Death was not what Harry thought it would be. An empty train and a being proclaiming himself to be the Death, telling him that, “sorry, no afterlife for you” certainly wasn't anywhere near his expectations.

    And having his soul and magic crammed back into his four year old body, being told that he can never die… That was another painful kick to the groin.

    But Harry is British, and the phrase “keep calm and carry on” is practically a part of him by now. He realises that this is a second chance at life. To actually live and do whatever the hell he wants without being someone else’s pawn. It is a new beginning, and things are going to be vastly different this time around.

     

    UPDATE: As of April 2025 this story has been fully edited/rewritten.

    Summary

    What if Hagrid caught a nasty case of dragonpox, and was unable to introduce Harry Potter into the wizarding world? What if the only other person who Dumbledore trusted to handle the situation, who was not otherwise indisposed, was a very reluctant Severus Snape? What if this one difference created a butterfly effect that would change Harry Potter's life, and the future of the wizarding world forever?

    Harry is determined to impress Snape and prove his worth beyond the stupid title and scar that have made him famous.

    Draco is determined to impress Harry Potter and become the boy's new best friend.

    Severus is determined to survive the headache that is two hyperactive new Slytherins who seem hell-bent on bending the status quo of his entire House, and their common room, to their will.

    Summary

    A time-travel fix-it type story in which the wolf falls for the moon, the brewer falls for the grower, and the one who never had a childhood falls for the one who never grew up. Other relationships will happen, but first they’ll need to learn about some spectacular betrayals. The dead, who aren’t so dead, have been taking advantage of the survivors. Myths wander over and through the British magical world once again. Basically, Dumbledore is really creepy, Neville is King Arthur, and Sirius looks tasty in a leather jacket. The story begins a few short months after the war, and then, things get wild.
    *Note: although completely unimportant to plot or 99% of the story, Fred Weasley lives. Because that’s how it should’ve happened.

    Summary

    After the confrontation with Voldemort after the third task of the Triwizard Tournament, Harry doesn't get sad. He doesn't get mad. He gets even.

    AU! This story is only partially canon compliant. It is fully canon compliant up to Dumbledore, Snape, Harry and Fudge's little ... chat at the end of Goblet of Fire. Beyond that point, it's hit and miss. NO HARRY HORCRUX! Proactive Harry, Intelligent Harry.

    Summary

    Harry Potter, retired Auror, is also a budding magical theorist who likes a quiet life. When he discovers what seems to be a possible reason that so many pure-blood families are losing their magic and having Squib children, he keeps it quiet, because he knows it would only cause a storm of controversy. But an equally budding acquaintance with Draco Malfoy might change his mind.

    After the fall of Voldemort, the students whose 7th year was so heavily impacted by the war and the Death Eater-takeover at Hogwarts have been called back to retake their last year of school. The power balances in the wizarding world are shifting, but at Hogwarts, the old alliances remain unchanged. The animosity between Slytherin and Gryffindor is as strong as ever, and while Draco is trying to restore some of the lost power and influence of House Malfoy, everyone is trying to come to terms with what happened during the war and who they are now. Voldemort may be gone, but it would be a lie to say that all is well.

    Summary

    Draco Malfoy had returned for his eighth year at Hogwarts. Things were, of course, not ideal, and everyone pretty much hated him. But that was to be expected.

    What was not expected, however, was everyone in Hogwarts mysteriously falling under a dangerous sleeping curse. That was, except for Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter.

    The two soon find out the curse is only one part of a much bigger, and darker plot. Draco and Harry must set aside their differences and work together to save the Wizarding World, and each other.

    Summary

    Lucius is out of luck in Azkaban, and Draco and Narcissa are struggling while under house arrest. So Draco seeks help from the one person who has the sliver of a chance to change his family's fate. The blond's offer in return: his life, his service, his dignity, because what are they worth in the face of his parents' extinction?
    And Harry? He struggles every day to make their world a safer place. Fighting as an auror to catch the dark wizards, who did not get the memo that there is no Dark Lord any longer.
    Can a reluctant Death Eater and the Saviour of the Wizarding World find a way into a better future, or are light and dark too different ever to work together?

    If you ask Ron, he would tell you, "Not a chance, mate."
    If you ask Hermione, you might get a different answer. Most likely one related to a book.
    But if you ask Harry, he has already met a Slytherin willing to sacrifice his life, for him to win; and a Griffyndor who has served his friends up for slaughter. Nothing is ever as simple as light and dark, so he might as well try.
