Summary
After a bout of accidental magic when Harry is six, Vernon goes too far. When Harry wakes up, he is gravely wounded and more than fifty years in the past in another world. After some shuffling, Harry ends up at Wool's. There, he meets Tom Riddle, his mysterious roommate, eventual best friend, and the love of his life.
Inspired by a doctor he meets in the past, Harry is determined to go into medicine and protect other children like himself and Tom. Tom has his own dream of becoming Prime Minister. The boys quickly become inseparable and are determined to help each other down their paths to build a life together.
He wanted Harry. He had never coveted anyone this much.
Tom understood now that some part of him had never given up on having a… friend. Someone who understood him more than anyone else. Someone who would always take his side.
In a flash, he knew he would do anything to have Harry Faye’s loyalty.

Summary
They sought her out for conversation sometimes, cornering her in the garden or at the park, not that they ever had much to say. Really, Harriet thought snakes were rather dull.
---------
Harriet Potter has always been odd. Between having a shadow that moves on its own and chatting with grass snakes, learning she's a witch really isn't the strangest thing to happen to the bespectacled girl with a lightning scar on her neck.
Harriet attends Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where she makes new friends, encounters a prickly Potions Master, learns about the Boy Who Lived, and meets the enigmatic Defense Against the Dark Arts instructor, Professor Tom Slytherin.

Summary
“Am I dead?” he asked, because he should be dead. He should be at the bottom of that lake, drowning under the bodies of decomposing inferi, but—
“Calm down, Black, you only fell off your broom."
—instead he was two years in the past. Alive. And with a whole new mess to deal with.
or; it's back to time travel, baby!

Summary
This world has no need for her, offers no destined paths and fated battles, for it is not hers to save. [
Was never meant to be saved.] But Harry — Harry, whose father was brave enough to face Voldemort head on, whose mother was brilliant enough to outsmart him, Harry, who has Lannister blood running through her veins and magic purring under her skin — Harry will reshape it all the same.Elyanna Baratheon is born with the breathtaking, terrifying might that is a life free of a prophecy’s shackles. Luckily, she's got twisted family drama, an ill-timed reawakening of the Magic of Old and the powder keg that calls itself the political climate of Westeros to keep her occupied.

Summary
(we all fall down.)
Contrary to popular belief, she did not come into the world snarling like a rabid bitch to be put down. There was no foaming at the mouth, no sharpened glare and certainly none of that piercing shriek. There was no auspicious star, no malicious blood-curse.
Pansy Parkinson is the only daughter of a declining Pureblood house, a mean girl of a side character, largely unimportant in the scheme of things.
Or rather - she was.

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.)
