    Summary

    “What I find absolutely fascinating,” Riddle said, stalking closer, “is you.” He marched forward, backing Harry up until he was pinned to the cool wall of the common room. “Do you know why?”

    “No. And I’ll be honest here, Riddle, I don’t particularly care.”

    The taller boy grinned at him, small yet infinitely pleased. “That. Right there.” One hand rose and brushed some of Harry’s fringe from his face. “Nathan Ciro was a spineless little boy too afraid of his own shadow to dare even glance in my direction. But you…”

    He leaned closer, “You look at me like you want to stab me.”

    After an accident, Auror Harry Potter wakes up in the body of fourteen year old Nathan Ciro, a tormented Slytherin who recently tried to end his own life. Seeking answers to his strange predicament, Harry returns to Hogwarts, and causes quite the stir through staff and students - especially when they come to realise he is not the same boy as before.

    He tries to avoid suspicion, but as his quest for the truth draws more and more attention to him, Harry begins to think that he might not like what he will discover.

    Summary

    When Izuku wakes up in the forest not far from his home, he isn't prepared for what's about to come next.
    Izuku's never dealt with time travel, after all, but that seems to be the least of his worries. He's not in his own timeline, for one, and he may or may not have been missing for the past few months.

    With the threat of a future only Izuku knows about, a strange missing persons case, everyone around him getting suspicious, and a quirk he shouldn't have, Izuku has his work cut out for him.

    Summary

    “As you can see, the cuffs haven’t cut off whatever illusion you’re casting. You need to tell us who you are, and what kind of quirk you’ve been hit with to make you look like that.”

    “I’m… Midoriya Izuku?”

    “Wrong answer. Tell us your name- Your REAL name.”

    “Why do you keep saying that? I AM Midoriya Izuku!”

    “You’re not.”

    “And why not?”

    “Because Midoriya Izuku died four months ago.”

     

    Or:

    After a world-ending Virus kills everyone Izuku loves, he’s sent to a parallel universe where he’s the only one who died. The only problem is, he isn’t the same Izuku they lost- and he might not get to stay.

    Summary

    It’s May 1979 and the Order has just apprehended a pair of mysterious wizards who look remarkably like a Potter and a Malfoy. Naturally, James Potter and Sirius Black are called in to identify the strangely familiar strangers and determine their backgrounds and loyalties.

    (This would be a lot easier if their captives weren’t convinced everyone they talk to is dead. It would also be easier if they didn’t spend half their bloody time bickering.)

    **

    “Just ask them questions only they would know the answer to,” Malfoy suggests.

    “There’s not a single thing that I know about either of them from the first war that any old Death Eater couldn’t find out.”

    “How is that possible?” Malfoy huffs. “He’s your father!”

    “Am I or am I not famously an orphan?” Potter snarls.

    **

    Summary

    Maybe there's not that much of a difference between a hero and a villain. Maybe it's just a series of choices or even just the way people perceive you. Peter Parker doesn't want to be a villain, but maybe he no longer wants to be a hero either. Maybe he's just angry, and tired of following everyone else's rules. Maybe he just doesn't care what people think of him anymore.

    Or: an alternate timeline of that moment where Tony takes away Peter's suit.
