   Summary

   Harry dies with pity in his eyes and awakens in the white hush of King’s Cross, crowned by the shadows of the Hallows. Death offers him three paths, but only one calls to the ache in his chest. Instead of returning to war or resting in peace, Harry chooses the impossible: to step back in time and reach for the lonely boy who would become Voldemort. Armed with compassion instead of prophecy, he walks toward Tom Riddle’s past to teach him trust, to show him that love is not weakness, and to rewrite the story Dumbledore abandoned long ago.

    

   *Do NOT post this anywhere else, do NOT steal my work, do NOT feed my shit to AI, or I will hack your account and expose your AO3 history.I mean it *

   I do not own the characters; they belong to jk rowling, sadly

   If you want to translate, let me know first so I can link it !

   If you don't like my writing style, don't read it. I write how I want a fic to be; there will be no 300 words of describing shit, cause i dont like it that much.
   I have eye issues, so I set it up in a way that's pleasant for me to read

   Anyway, enjoy, I love every one of you who read this ,i will reply to each comment the best i can
