Harry Hartford and the Years of Misfortune by MothMagia
Fandom: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
16 Nov 2024
Summary
In the grand scheme of things, one single person isn't much. They are a grain of sand in the vast desert, and they are lost without a trace, only to be briefly rediscovered when one looks at their family tree, or finds their gravestone hidden beneath the dirt and grass that cover it.
But, for some unlucky people, the world seems to focus on their single grain, and gives them every bit of pain and suffering that it can.
And for Harry Hartford, formerly known as Harry Potter, he is that grain of sand.
But god, how he wished he wasn't.
A retelling of the Harry Potter story which, while it generally hits the same story beats, falls off the wagon rather quickly. Where Harry grows up knowing he is loved, and he finds a new set of friends, and yet, at the same time, quickly learns that the world has it out for him for circumstances outside of his control.
And because of that, he must find a way to survive without completely losing himself in the process.

Summary
"That's the way the song has always been, even way back when we were playing in World Juniors. 'USA Hockey is do or die.'" Kent takes a long gulp of his electrolytes and leans into the lunge, watching the rest of the players complete their cool-down stretches. Jack pretends to ignore the fact that he can audibly hear Kent's hip popping.
"That feels extreme, eh?"
-
He never had such a stark reminder that he was born in Pittsburgh than the giant red, white, and blue logo embroidered over his heart. As he glances out at the room full of expectant faces, he wonders, briefly, if agreeing to play for the United States might have been a mistake.

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.)
