    Summary

    After willingly choosing to face death in the Forbidden Forest, Harry Potter expects nothing more than silence as he believes his story has ended. Death & Co. have other plans, though.

     

    Instead, he wakes up in a void to discover the world he died to protect is crumbling, and that magic itself is nearly lost after centuries of neglect. Offered an impossible choice, between rest and a second chance, Harry is hurled back in time to an era before Voldemort’s rise, before war, and before magic’s fate was sealed.

     

    But everything carries a price. Nothing changes without a sacrifice. And if there’s one thing Harry has always offered freely, it’s themself.

    “Given all that you require,” they had said. Turns out it was at the expense of his own arse.

     

    Harry stared down at unfamiliar hands, at a body that was not his, at a life that did not belong to him.

     

    Something cold and furious settled in his chest.

     

    “Liars,” Harry muttered, gritting his teeth.

    Summary

    On the thirty-first of October, 1980, Lily Potter filed a magically binding will naming Severus Snape as Harry's guardian. She placed him last on the list to convince James. She placed him first because she meant it.
    Snape cannot refuse. He does not decide to become a father. He simply does the things that fathers do, one after another, for twelve years, until the doing becomes the thing, and the thing becomes permanent.
    Dumbledore had a plan. Lily had a better one.
    Blood was never the magic that protected Harry. It was love.

    Summary

    In one world, Harry was doused in compulsions and loyalty potions to make him become the Golden Boy-Who-Lived, a puppet of The Great Albus Dumbledore (TM).

    In this world, that never happens. The Dursleys go on a vacation, never to return. It's only when Harry is almost thirteen years old that batty old Sybill Trelawney makes a new prophecy, telling Dumbledore where Harry is.

    What will have happened to Harry in the eight years he was lost? Why does he have a Boomslang for a pet? Why does his cousin wield two goblin-made axes and only speak Silvertongue, the goblin language?

    Be ready for a Grey Alliance that takes on Dumbledore and Voldemort both, Harry taking over the Wizengamot (eventually), and mythical-level magic dealt out by a young man who will do anything to create a safe world for ALL magical beings.

    This is completely self-satisfying Gary-Stu writing that combines like all the tropes - hyphenating names, Wizengamot takeovers, ritual magics, magical holidays, Slytherin politics, the works. Comments with suggestions for improvement are great!

    Summary

    Sirius wailed, tears falling onto James’ cold skin as he held him. The only thing that made him pause was the shrill cry of a baby inside the room next door. Sirius propped James up against the wall, touched his face one more time, and swiftly ducked into the room.

    Lily was dead. Harry was not.
    ...
    Or, a cannon-adjacent fic where Sirius, Severus, and Remus try to get over their differences to protect Harry from his only living family. They move in next door and try to play a nice group of muggle roommates. Tensions rise; will they fight to the death, or will past hatred turn into something else? I don't know yet, so we'll see where it goes!

    Summary

    The second wizarding war is still ongoing. Nevarah has forgotten about the realm they have abandoned. An investigation into a beacon discovered by accident leads to the current status quo falling apart faster than a house of cards.

    Tldr.: Everyone suffers.
