Summary
Little Whinging, Surrey is a place where individuality goes to die. Row after row of identical houses line the streets with pristine, white picket fences and perfectly pruned hedges and house perfectly normal families. Those who live on Privet Drive are no exception to this.
But there is one little boy who does not fit into that mould.
Little Hari Potter, who has befriended snakes and knows their ways, hears his neighbors whispering of things he wanted them to notice and says, “Aunt Petunia, did you hear? Mrs. Number Six thinks we’re too poor to afford clothes for two children. I heard her talking about asking the neighbors for donations for us. Isn’t that nice of her? I know that I’m a huge burden on you all, so I’m glad that someone is stepping up to help out.”
And that simply will not do. The Dursleys care more for their reputation than anything else, and so things slowly but surely begin to change as a result.
The Hari Potter who arrives at Hogwarts could never sort anywhere but Slytherin.

Summary
A retelling of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone where Regulus lives, and so too does James Potter.
Harry is raised far away from the world, sequestered in a little home of warmth, of safety, of peace and truth. Very few people know him even alive, seeing as he disappeared after the death of his mother.
His debut at Hogwarts is even more shocking then, when the son of James Potter and Lily Evans is sorted into Slytherin.
A ward of the snake house, thrown into chaos of life after the quiet of his upbringing, utterly alone in that large castle with a Headmaster who seems to trace his every move, follow the Boy-Who-Lived through his first year of Hogwarts.
