Summary
Harry Potter fell through the Veil chasing his godfather. Harry was still underage and had blood protection on him that didn't let him die until he was an adult. Or maybe it was because it had to be Voldemort who killed him.
Harry didn't know and didn't care much. Whatever the reason, Death just decided it wasn't Harry's time to die yet. So the Veil decided to spit him out again.
Except he's not sent back to 1996. He wakes up in 1975 with no memories. He just knows there are people calling him James, and the actual James is confused.
They soon realize it will be up to them to save Wizarding Britain by meddling with the timeline. Along the way, Harry will discover more than he bargained for.
Everything Harry had been ever told, which was not much, was told by people who were grieving, biased, or blinded by loyalty and hatred. Most of it was exaggerated or false.
Now, surrounded by living ghosts, he’ll learn who James Potter and Lily Evans really were—and what they might still become.
Or: Harry fell through the Veil and isn't allowed to die, so he wakes up in the past with no memories and befriends his dad
IMPORTANT: this fic will not include any incest between ANY characters

Summary
“What are you doing here, Pakkun?” Sakura asked.
Despite Tsunade’s death-grip on his scruff, he still managed a shrug. “Well, when the boss said his wife finally woke back up we thought we would come see-“
His mouth still moved, but Sakura didn’t hear the rest as the world immediately collapsed upon itself and left her as its sole spiraling focal point.
Boss.
He couldn’t mean…?
“I-I’m sorry, Pakkun, I think I misunderstood you. Could you-“
Wife.
She brought a trembling hand to the cold sweat beading on her forehead. In the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the name printed neatly on her wristband:
Sakura Hatake.
---
After nearly succumbing to a brutal injury during her last mission, Sakura regains consciousness in the hospital a month later only to discover she has absolutely no memory of the last four years. During the recovery process, she struggles to reckon with just how much her life has changed.[COMPLETED]

Summary
If the horcrux hunt began in 1979, right after Regulus Black discovered Voldemort’s secret, how challenging would’ve it been? Without some of the critical information Harry Potter and his friends possessed by their 7th year, how likely would’ve it been to succeed? No time-travel, no unprecedented luck, just the resources available in the late-70s/early-80s.
-----------------
Not in the Order of the Phoenix, but certainly not Death Eaters, Sirius and Isabella Black (nee. Rosier) found themselves straddling the ever-growing divide between the Light and Dark families. When Sirius’ brother comes to him with information that could potentially change the course of the war, the couple’s thrown into action while forced to reckon with the fact that neither side entirely trusts them.Bookmarked by whoneedsreality

Summary
When Dick Grayson accidentally portals into the past, he finds himself on the Justice League’s Watchtower surrounded by younger versions of the original members of the Justice League...including Batman.
But none of them have any idea who Nightwing (or even Robin) is.
What a perfect opportunity to create a little chaos...while also trying not to break the timestream.
