Summary
When the Boy-Who-Lived stood in the middle of the clearing, waiting for death with terrified yet resigned eyes, the Dark Lord Voldemort thought that he had finally won. That he could now shape the world the way he was always meant to do, with no Dumbledore, no prophecy, no boy with green eyes stubbornly standing in his way. He raised his wand and confidently cast the Killing Curse and, once again, his life fell apart.
OR
When Harry chooses to come back to life, he takes with him the entirety of Voldemort's soul. In doing so, Voldemort's mind and body reset to the time right before he made his first horcrux; he is seventeen again, and does not seem to remember the horrors he has committed. The Light wins the war, and is left with an impossible decision. What should be done with Tom Marvolo Riddle?

Summary
Harry's sixth year ends with the Dark Lord's takeover. At some point, Harry wakes from unconsciousness. He is ordered back to school. Things get weirder: after a vicious attack, Voldemort saves his life. Which makes it clear: he is a Horcrux.
Should Harry stay, or join the rebels? Use his new power over Dark Marks, or resist the temptation? Should he fold or rage against the Dark Lord and his mentoring act? Aim for influence… or his own destruction?
~Gen, dystopian and plotty AU: mentorship between Harry and Voldemort, and between Harry and Snape - both at a snail’s pace. No main ships.

Voldemort spoke: "The Horcrux isn't really gone, is it?"Harry frowned. "What do you mean?"
Dumbledore turned to Harry, perplexed - dismayed even. Voldemort watched him with unholy glee. They had paused their duelling.
“You see?” the Dark Lord hissed. “He will always be mine.”
“Harry,” Albus said gently. “You just spoke Parseltongue.”

Summary
Holly Potter, a year after wining the war, realises that while Voldemort might have been stark raving mad – the young Tom Riddle was a shrewd politician and wanted to bring many needed changes to Wizarding world, changes she can get behind wholeheartedly. After being hit by a killing curse for the third time in her life she wakes up in a dimension where Voldemort doesn't exist and Tom Riddle is going by the name Marvolo Slytherin. He is the kind of politician Holly had dreamed he would have been if not for horcurxes.
As Holly and Marvolo get closer to each other in this dimension she slowly starts realising that both in her own world and in this new one the connection between her and Tom Riddle is much much deeper than a prophecy or a horcrux and that she had been manipulated in both worlds to view him as the enemy.

Summary
Harry didn’t understand why Voldemort had suggested their marriage as a solution to the war. He didn’t understand why his friends were supporting the suggestion. But he goes into it, trying to be as numb as possible, trying to retreat into his mind and just let the world play out around him—no matter how difficult that is.
