What's the Spell for Found Family? by theskeptileptic
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

Summary
In another world, Albus Dumbledore was humbler, kinder, and less manipulative. In another world, the Potters said 'yes' to making him secret keeper. In another world, this made all the difference.
or...
Harry Potter doesn't know his last name, but that doesn't matter when your job is cooking and cleaning and staying out of the way. His relatives don't treat him well, but he's made it work. He's almost eleven when a knock on the door changes everything he knows about himself. He's not sure what to do, but sticking around to hear what the strange adults have to say doesn't seem smart.
or...
This is a short, pre-Hogwarts story where Harry makes some friends, meets his parents, eats some pizza, and gets a hug, not in that order.

Summary
This is the story of what happened between the lines of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", "Deathly Hollows", until the end of the summer after Voldemort's defeat. It narrates how Harry and Ginny fell in love, how they arrived at their momentous kiss, and where that kiss led them. It also dives deeper into Ginny and Hermione's friendship. It can be considered a collection of missing moments that contain all the spicy episodes JKR could not publish. They are, for the most part, consistent with canon.

Summary
"Proofing, also sometimes called final fermentation, is the specific term for allowing dough to rise after it has been shaped and before it is baked."
Less than a year has passed since the final battle, and the Ministry is already up to its old tricks. Harry would very much like them to stop ignoring due process, tossing people in Azkaban, controlling the press, and menacing the populace with dementors.
He would also like, if at all possible, to bake a passable loaf of bread.

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
“So, you deduced not only Crouch’s identity, but also his work as Moody, just by an offhanded comment on your skill?” Riddle asked, sounding more than curious, and yet not at all impressed, “Explain that to me.”
Harry stared at Riddle for a long second before he built up enough courage to face pain once more. He could do this, it would be fine. He could face pain — pain was fine. Harry had been in pain his whole life, he could deal with this. He’d be dead soon, and he wasn’t about to do anything Riddle asked. He’d rather die than allow Riddle to understand any of what Harry thought.
“No.”
(Post GOF Harry is held captive by Death Eaters.)

Summary
Just before his eleventh birthday, Harry is found in a dark London alleyway. He is subsequently taken to stay in the home of one Severus Snape until he begins Hogwarts. Harry isn't quite sure what possessed him to agree to this arrangement, and Severus has no intention of allowing Potter's unfortunate progeny to get under his skin, but this is a Severitus fic, we all know how it ends.

Summary
Before his third year of Hogwarts has even begun, Harry faces three whole weeks of unsupervised time in Diagon Alley. In that time he takes a trip to Gringotts - and that changes everything.
Burdened with the knowledge that Dumbledore has been blocking his family magic, and manipulating far more than he ever thought possible, Harry doesn't know who he can trust; but he knows he can't keep going that way. There's a whole world of lore and politics and history to catch up on, and the more he learns, the more Harry realises his true place in the world, and how much is being kept hidden from him. All the while, Dumbledore's twinkling eyes are constantly watching, and Harry can't let on how much he knows.
With help from unexpected places, Harry starts on a journey to end the war, and reshape the wizarding world. With how much he looks like James Potter, people have forgotten one important thing about him - he is Lily Evans' son, and she was one hell of a witch.
