Summary
I always wondered why Severus went to Dumbledore with his admission of guilt and request to save Lily. There were plenty of other ways and people he could have given the information to without committing himself to a miserable life trying desperately to receive redemption and forgiveness from people he didn't like. Here's my take on what could have happened.

Petunia is more than Harry sees. She is a multi dimensional person with thoughts and feelings and flaws all of her own.
The wizarding world really did her no favours.

Summary
Hermione meant to go back to the night Severus Snape died.
Before the blood and silence and all the truths learned too late.
Instead, the Time-Turner shatters.
Hermione falls nearly thirty years into the past and lands in Spinner’s End, where Severus Snape is not yet a spy, a professor, a murderer, a hero, or a dead man.
He is nine years old.
Thin, furious, brilliant, half-starved, and already expecting the world to hurt.
Stranded in 1969 with no way home, no legal identity, and no idea how much damage one misplaced kindness might do to history, Hermione finds herself with Aunt Vera’s spare room, a broken Time-Turner, and a child who does not know how to be helped.
There will be tea. Laundry. Drying charms. Butterbeer. Mistakes.
And slowly, Hermione begins to understand that saving Severus Snape may have very little to do with the night he died.
Author’s Note: This is eventual HG/SS, but the romance is a very late-story development. The early and middle sections focus on Hermione stranded in 1969, young Severus, found family, healing, and timeline changes. There is no romantic dynamic while Severus is a child.

Summary
Petunia wasn't the smart one. Or the pretty one. Or the magical one. But she was cunning, resourceful, and she knew what she wanted from life... and she got it.
So when her nephew turns up on her doorstep one cold November morning, she sees it as the opportunity that it is.
---
This was an odd little earworm of a plot bunny that wouldn't leave me alone. I'm much more inclined to shorter works, so it's a bit of a patchwork story.
Note on the tags. Petunia is... Petunia. She is not really 'Nice' or 'Good' but she's not 'Mean' or 'Evil' either. She's a selfish, self-centered woman with a brittle sense of self-esteem and a drive to be recognized as successful in her own right. I tagged it 'Good' because that was the closest I could get to 'not the horrible person from the book, but not really even close to a Molly'.
Also: I will not be tagging every single person who appears in the fic, only those with reoccurring roles. This is not a bashing fic and I've done as best as possible to give rational(ish) 'good intentions' explanations for the canon shenanigans.

Draco Malfoy & the Blackwater Curse by Tessa Crowley (tessacrowley)
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
01 Oct 2025
Tags
Summary
After a dangerous and chaotic first year at Hogwarts, Draco Malfoy goes into his second year vowing to be as normal as possible—a plan that goes out the window when he sees a familiar but impossible name on the Marauder’s Map: Regulus Black. His mother’s cousin, one of the only blood relatives he has left, and missing in action for over a decade.
But finding and helping Regulus is an endeavor that will require consorting with ghosts, lifting curses, and protecting Hogwarts from the threat that has kept him on the run all this time, a dangerous agent of the Ashbringer and Regulus’s own brother.
Perhaps Draco’s life just isn’t meant to be normal.
