Summary
“Harry Potter.”
The cold burrowed into his flesh; the scent of cloying death and molding earth clogged his senses.
“The Boy Who Lived.”
A strange sense of unimaginable loss and disappointment rose inside of Harry. That brilliant, yet cruel boy could’ve been so much more if he’d not stepped down this bloodied path.
Terrible, but great. He pitied this creature.
“Come to die.”
Harry Potter faced the flash of green light with the bravery of a Gryffindor and the broken heart of a Hufflepuff.
When Death gives Harry a third option, one that can save everyone he ever cared about, he takes it unflinchingly. Even when that means doing the impossible: falling in love with the enemy, Tom Riddle.

Summary
All it takes is one look in a mirror and an ill-advised attempt to shatter it, before an embittered Draco Malfoy fresh out of Azkaban is sent back into his body on the day he gets his Hogwarts letter.
Suddenly, Draco has an unwanted second chance, with a Sorting Hat that doesn't know what to do with him, a certain Muggleborn who won't leave his study table alone, and green eyes he just can't get out of his head. And then there's his new wand, whose choice of him could just mark him as every bit as dark a wizard as his name means he should be.

Summary
After uncovering truths that forever change how he sees the war, death, and himself, Harry Potter finds himself standing before a choice that is both impossible—and inevitable.
As the wizarding world burns in battle, an ancient prophecy settles upon his shoulders like a cloak of sacrifice. But just when everything seems sealed by fate, an unexpected encounter with Luna Lovegood rekindles the spark of the unknown.
With cryptic words and an ancestral vow, Luna charts a new path for Harry—one that defies the destiny he thought was his. A silent train, a forgotten spell, and a sacred promise between magical Houses intertwine their fates into something far greater than war: the awakening of a new truth.

Summary
After death Harry expected peace, not a second childhood.
An incident long before his birth has left Death waiting for a suitable master. The world must be balanced, after all, and Harry, unwilling participant that he is, finds himself standing squarely on the scales.
Unfortunately, Death has a flair for the dramatic and seems to enjoy making Harry’s life harder than it needs to be.
or
A classic time-travel fix-it where old enemies become allies, and a meddling old man has sunk his teeth deeper into the wizarding world than anyone ever realized.
