Summary
From her hiding spot, Marja stared at the boy. He had the same eyes as her son. Her precious little Emil, less than a year old, had the same sea-blue gaze as this child, only maybe a shade darker. Then all she could think of was her son in this boy’s place, his eyes staring off into nothing, and she sobbed, tears blurring her vision.
The boy’s mouth moved, and even though nothing but a low gurgle of blood escaped his lips, Marja could see the shape they made. She could see him silently cry, mother, mother.
--
In which humanity shines brightest in the darkest of times, and one impulsive choice results in two serving girls and a Frey knight saving Robb Stark’s life in the aftermath of the Red Wedding.

Summary
Sakura is not an idiot. She was praised for her intelligence, reached Top Kunoichi at the Academy for her brains.
So it doesn't take her long after being placed on the powder keg that is Team Seven to realize she is going to die.
Kakashi, career shinobi since age-six, has no idea what the hell is going on with his little pink-haired student or why there is such fear in her eyes. So he gives her head-pats. That's what you do for scared puppies isn't it?

Summary
Uchiha Shisui hadn’t stopped laughing since Itachi told him what happened.
The fact that his baby cousin hadn't been able to shut up about his pastel-colored teammate since the incident made it even funnier.
Despite the rumors that often circulated amongst Uchiha fanclubs in the Academy, it wasn’t a show of being delicate or needing protection that tended to earn the admiration and attraction of his fellow clan members.
It was a display of brute strength.
Poor little Sakura-chan had no idea what she’d just signed herself up for.

In which Luna Lovegood dies, and Nara Tsukiko is born.
A fall through the Veil, a breath between worlds, and then - light.
She is reborn into a land of shadows and chakra, in a quiet village where children grow into weapons and silence is a second language. Her eyes open too early, her thoughts are too old, but she learns to smile anyway. For her father, who grieves quietly. For herself, who remembers everything.
And when she meets a silver-haired boy with eyes like a shuttered sky, something in her finally begins to root.

Summary
It's the Marauders' Era, the age of great beauty and yet greater tragedy in the wizarding world. But there's just one difference, in someone who's not even a part of that world: Petunia Evans, on receiving the rejection letter that seemed to spell her fate, did not give in to jealousy and sourness, but instead chose to stay determined and defiant. Who knew that this one, insignificant change in a Muggle could end up changing the fate of an entire generation? This fic is intended for the purpose of fixing all that can be fixed, saving all who can be saved and redeeming all who can be redeemed. This is probably going to be a long fic.
Also, if you're only interested in the Black brothers and their connection to the Potters and just want to read about Reg running away to the Potters with Sirius and everything that follows, then you can just read every chapter I title as 'Never Going Back' (partly still in progress as of now, there's five consecutive parts that are completed and then two follow-ups several years later which there's a long time left for yet) without needing to really know or read the rest of the fic (although please, by all means, do!)

Summary
When trying to stop his godfather from falling through the Veil of Death, Harry fell through with him. Death was none too pleased to see him this early in its realm, however, so he got another chance at life. Not as Harry though. His new life would be that of Rose Potter, Harry Potter's twin sister.

Summary
As the clock struck midnight on November 1st 1981, the one known as Petunia Evans was making herself a cup of tea in her kitchen. It tasted salty as she shakily sipped it… Must be the tears mixing in.
Not two hours ago she’d woken up with a gasp, and as soon as she felt the searing pain in her chest, she knew… her little sister was gone.
Now she was alone… First her parents, dead, and now her sister was gone too. Would they find her too? If masquerading as muggles hadn’t worked for her parents… would it be enough for her?
The telltale cracks of apparition coming from outside startled her, and she made her way slowly towards the front door.
When she opened it, she found her nephew on the ground in a basket, eyes as green as her sister’s staring up at her.
In that moment, as their gazes connected, something snapped in place inside her. Maybe Lilia had it right all along, even if it had gotten her killed. Maybe it was time to come out of hiding and actually do something about things. For her, and for her baby.
“Hello Henry, I’m your aunt Phaedra,” she crooned soothingly, her true name sounding weird to her after so long not saying it out loud, “let’s get you inside where it’s warm, ok sweetheart?”- Language:

Summary
What if Voldemort went after Harry and Neville, and gave no one a chance to die for them? What if both Chosen Ones died as children?
--
There was no prophesied boy, but there was still this--dozens of shadowed young faces refusing to run, even at the very end of the world. Dumbledore looked out at his chess pieces, pawns and queens; his children and his friends; his collateral damage. He had the beginnings of a plan swelling in his chest.It would take them decades to get their hands, quietly, on every Horcrux. Tom Riddle had to think they were secret. He had to think he was safe. It would take them almost decades, but one day he would be mortal again.
These dozens of faces--they were mortal now. Alastor Moody could feel mortality in the aches of old broken bones; Andromeda rewrote her own last name. Remus and Sirius felt empty, gaping holes in the seats around them, and they made crude, expansive, joyous toasts to friends' memories.
When Molly first reached over and held Arthur's hand, they knew this was something that could not last. That was why they held hands, held on, held tight.

Summary
When Petunia Dursley refused to take Harry in she forfeited his birthright protection, so Dumbledore took the baby to the safest place he knew: Hogwarts.
The applicable staff (mostly just… not Snape) took Harry in on a rotating schedule as he grew from baby to toddler to child. They traded extra credit for babysitting among the older students, and Harry grew up knowing a few dozen different laps that were safe and warm to nap in.
This was a Harry who grew up among books, among old transient walls and learned professors. They gave Binns night duty sometimes, and let him talk young Harry to sleep. This was a Harry whose world changed, on principle, daily. The stairs moved. The walls became doors. You had to keep your eyes open–you had to pay attention. So he did.
He grew up in a school. Knowledge was power, but knowledge was also joy. This was his sanctuary. There was magic in his world from birth.

Summary
It was Mrs. Figg who suspected first.
She noticed many things, sitting on her side of her fence with her cats chasing butterflies and nuzzling her ankles, Mundungus and the other watchers dropping by for tea now and then.
Mrs. Figg noticed that Petunia was a nosy bit of work with insecurities hanging from her every harsh angle. She noticed when Dudley learned the word MINE-- the whole neighborhood noticed that one. She noticed that Vernon glared at owls.
She noticed that when Petunia gave Harry a truly horrendous haircut one year, it grew back in at a normal rate. Harry was uneven and weird-looking for ages, hiding under beanies when he could.
When Mrs. Figg had Harry over for carefully miserable afternoons of babysitting, she noticed nothing moved that shouldn't. He didn't accidentally make flowers out of fallen leaves, or levitate anything during tantrums, or turn toys funny colors.
Mrs. Figg called up her mother, interrupting the wizarding bridge game she was winning against the nursing home staff, and asked her how she had known, decades back, that her youngest daughter was a squib.

Summary
Lily remembered her sister, how there had been a time she was curious and delighted about magic, before it slowly sank in that she could look and not touch.
The last thing Petunia had said to Lily before she died was a chilly goodbye, ending a holiday dinner where they'd had a shrieking row in the entryway. Petunia had said 'freak' and Lily had hissed 'better than this, better than this being my whole fucking world, Tune, do you even see yourself, are you happy--'
And now here was Dudley Vernon Dursley fussing himself to sleep as Lily walked the halls of the Godric's Hollow house. His tiny soft hands with their tiny soft fingernails curled under her chin, the same way Harry's always had.
She passed James, who was gently bouncing his way up the hall the opposite way. "I think he's asleep," James mouthed over Harry's tousled head. His hair was the same mess, his head bent down as he peered at his sleeping son.
Lily stopped where she stood, her nephew heavy on her chest, her husband smiling, her sister buried. "James," she said. "How are we going to do this?"

Summary
Harry Potter spent his eleventh birthday in a cabin on a tiny rock in the middle of the sea, listening to his cousin snore on the couch.
When a knock sounded on the wind-swept, rain-drenched door, it was not a giant fist (or a half-giant's fist). It was a short sharp rap that sounded once, twice, three times before Minerva McGonagall simply charmed the lock open and stepped inside.
"Apologies," Minerva said crisply, as Vernon raced out brandishing his rifle and Petunia pulled Dudley up off the couch and behind her. "I wasn't sure you could hear me over the weather.” The rain fell down behind the professor in a roar. She was perfectly dry.
Minerva fished in her pocket without looking, because the only things allowed in her pockets were only ever exactly what she needed. “I've come to deliver this," she said, pulling out a letter and handing it to Harry, who was cross-legged on the floor, "because our owl post seems to have been unable to get through.”
“And I've come to deliver this," she added, pulling out a second letter, "because Hogwarts by-laws require a professor to hand-deliver acceptance letters to Muggleborn families for their explanation and comfort."
