Summary
"I must say Harry," Voldemort admitted softly, rounding the tombstone, pale fingers trailing over the headstone of his father's grave. "I did not expect it to be you."
Harry shrugged, the piercings lining his ear catching the moonlight and drawing Voldemort's warbright gaze as a teasing smile stretched his face. "What can I say? People rarely expect much of me. Oh, before I forget — here."
Hands moving on instinct, Voldemort snatched the object tossed at him, eye twitching as droplets splashed upon his face. Lowering his hands, he glared at the impetuous boy, then looked down. Emotion abandoned him, jaw clenching, knuckles whitening as he took in his...his...
"This is..." he began, trailing off numbly as soul-deep horror clawed its way to his (arguably non-existent) heart.
"Your Diary?" Harry offered, brushing the mildew off the top of a headstone and taking a seat. "Yes."
"Why is it wet?!"
"Ah. Er...heh," rubbing the branching lightening-silver scars across his neck, Harry coughed. "Funny story that. Turns out, Veriteserum doesn't evaporate. It just...kind of... absorbs."

Summary
The summer of fourth year finds Harry Potter suffering through the abuse of his uncle and left for dead, abandoned by his friends. With Voldemort deciding to visit Privet Drive only to discover that the Blood Wards are gone, the Wizarding World will be rocked by the consequences of their encounter.
When you have control for the first time in your life, how far can you escape the life you left behind without it dragging you back?
Including a sane Voldemort, new possibilities, plotting Death Eaters, very confused Order members and smirking goblins (cue the shifty goblin eyes) it's a good thing Harry heard Amsterdam was nice this time of year.

Summary
There are moments in life that carry repercussions. And... there are moments in life in which you have to confront the regrets of your past.
Tom Riddle is learning this the hard way. Desperate, Tom turns to the one person he ever trusted to help him. The problem? Harry Potter has moved on and he's not the same boy he once knew, not the same boy he grew up with in Wool's Orphanage.
Finding a place for himself in Harry's life may be one of the most complicated things Tom has ever had to do, and that's before adding in the fake engagement and work commitments. Not to mention the baby. If he succeeds though... it may also be the best thing he's ever done.
They say time heals all wounds.
Clearly, whoever said that never met Harry.
