Summary
After decades of war, the world is on the brink of destruction, with no hope for survival. The only way to go on is to travel back in time and change everything that's gone wrong, starting with Tom Riddle. That's how Harry Potter found himself in 1941, a time he had hoped never to find himself in again. Why 1941? Death has a pretty messed up sense of humour, that's why.

When budding Dark Lord Tom Riddle overhears a prophecy predicting his demise at the hands of Harry Potter, he hatches a devious and brilliant plan: befriend the enemy, master the power-that-he-knows-not, and then eliminate him.
Unfortunately for Tom, Harry has never cared much for well-laid evil plots.
A Hogwarts AU in which Tom tries to be cunning, Harry tries to be helpful, and everyone else tries to be nosy.

Summary
Harry actually didn't mean to become a Dark Lord. It just sort of happened that way.
This series technically started with the one-shot "Charming When He Needs to Be," but Easy as Falling, Black Phoenix, and Burning Day are all finished prequels to it. Inspired by a request from sandersyager for Benevolently Snarky Dark Lord Harry.
