Summary
After the war, Harry Potter, now the Master of Death, returns to the past and becomes Hogwarts’ flying instructor, raising young Tom Riddle in a secluded Highland cottage under Headmaster Dippet’s protection.
Tasked with guiding a child destined for darkness, Harry’s own moral compass shifts as he protects Tom, while the boy’s innate cruelty sharpens into fevered devotion for the young man who raises him.
Their bond, deeper than any normal guardian-and-ward relationship, draws the wary eyes of Hogwarts, blurring the boundaries between familial, possessive, and dangerously intimate love. Desire, loyalty, and darkness intertwine, leaving both forever changed.

Summary
A gift is what Death called it, Harry still isn't really sure about that. After reincarnating and living so many lives, it really shouldn't have come as a surprise to find himself in the middle of the war that had started it all.
The most logical thing to do, of course, is to adopt himself.
What could go wrong? -

Summary
When seven-year-old Harry Potter speaks to a serpent in the London Zoo, he doesn’t just unlock a door; he draws the attention of someone watching. Morticia Addams, matriarch of the famously macabre Addams Family, recognizes the signs of suppressed magic and wounded potential. Upon discovering the boy’s name and the cruelty he’s endured, she makes a decision with all the grace and finality of a guillotine.
Harry Potter is coming home with them.
Raised among poison gardens, swordplay at breakfast, and cousins who play with guillotines instead of toys, Harry finds something in the Addams manor he never knew existed: a family that not only accepts the dark, strange parts of him, but celebrates them. Under the watchful eyes of Morticia and Gomez, alongside Wednesday, Pugsley, Thing, and the rest of the delightfully eerie household, Harry grows into something the wizarding world never expected.
Confident. Unafraid. Powerful.
So when Hogwarts finally comes calling, they are not prepared for this Harry Potter, and he is no longer alone... -

Summary
In the magical world, victory does not always bring change.
Even after Voldemort's fall, the Ministry had not erased his shadow: it had embraced it.
Through subtle laws, propaganda and quiet fanaticism, magical London had slipped backwards, darker than ever.Harry Potter and Hermione Granger had fought a war for a better future, but they soon discovered that the enemy was not a man... it was an idea.
A deep-rooted, ancient idea, too comfortable to be broken.Betrayed by politics, marginalised by power, forgotten by those they had saved, Harry and Hermione decided to turn to the only force that could not be corrupted: Death itself.
And when Death answered, it did not do so with threats or rewards.
It did so by opening a door.Transported to 1946, with new identities and a rewritten destiny, Harry and Hermione became the last heirs of the Peverells: an ancient, feared and almost mythological family.
Now, with power that no one can deny and a name that the wizarding world cannot ignore, the two have a second chance.Not to save the future.
To prevent it.

Summary
Voldemort intended the object to be used by his most loyal follower in the event that his horcruxes were destroyed, but it ended up in Hermione’s possession instead.
It sent her back to a time when he was much less the monster that she’d always known him to be. Nothing could have prepared her for the intelligence and charm of Tom Riddle.
He isn’t who she thought he was.
Hermione discovers that it’s a dark descent into the madness of the man she should hate, but can’t… a descent she will never emerge from.

Summary
“Such ego,” Harry breathes out shakily, though his voice trembles with strain.
Riddle grins, and with deliberate intimacy brushes a finger along Harry’s cheek, the touch soft and horrifying in equal measure, “Whatever happened to you, Hadrian…get over it. I’m going to be so much worse.”
Or
Harry Potter dies, and Hadrian Peverell survives. Tom Riddle is just what comes next, or perhaps, what was always there.

Summary
"I think I want to take over Britain." Harry said, smiling into the chilled breeze as the sun set. "How about it?" He glanced over at Tom, still sitting by his side.
"We could." Tom replied, "But it would be hard."
"Not if we worked together." Harry said, "Grindelwald was alone. You were alone before. This time, we'll be together." Tom examined him closely, his hazel eyes gazing into Harry's green for a long searching moment.
"Alright." Tom said finally, a smile gracing his face. "Let's do it."

Summary
In which Draco has a rip roaring crush on Hermione for the first four years of school. Then Fifth year arrives and it seems she might return his affections.
So what does he do? Naturally, he lures her (in a romantic way of course) into an alcove, magically glues her in place and kisses her until she's dizzy.
This is their love story. It's full of magic, humour and growing together. Of adventures, mischief and silliness around Hogwarts, cosy and tucked away from the rest of the world. This story is all their little moments; falling in love, falling apart, broken through the war and back again for Eighth year, and everything else In Between.
Featuring: a smart, ultra competent Hermione Granger who knows what she wants and isn't afraid to go after it,Soft, cinnamon roll Draco Malfoy who's completely head over heels for Hermione and is prepared to break all sorts of rules to spend time with his witch
Ultimate wingman Blaise Zabini. He's also a mother hen
Theo Nott making bets and badges. He's here for the chaos
Oblivious Potter (but he has suspicions)
Tiny bit of Ron Weasley bashing but also Ron Weasley redemption (and I redeem him so good!)

Summary
This is a story about the Ancient and Most Noble House of Black, or at least what is left of it. In 1987, Cassiopeia Black receives a shocking letter about a metamorphic child, who may or may not be a Black. From there, House Black has a choice: come together and overcome their differences or fade into obscurity.
This is a slow-burn fic with a lot of politics and POVs from all Blacks (including the usually forgotten ones). This is the perfect fit for those who love the Blacks, extensive world-building, and captivating mystery.
