    Summary

    “What I find absolutely fascinating,” Riddle said, stalking closer, “is you.” He marched forward, backing Harry up until he was pinned to the cool wall of the common room. “Do you know why?”

    “No. And I’ll be honest here, Riddle, I don’t particularly care.”

    The taller boy grinned at him, small yet infinitely pleased. “That. Right there.” One hand rose and brushed some of Harry’s fringe from his face. “Nathan Ciro was a spineless little boy too afraid of his own shadow to dare even glance in my direction. But you…”

    He leaned closer, “You look at me like you want to stab me.”

    After an accident, Auror Harry Potter wakes up in the body of fourteen year old Nathan Ciro, a tormented Slytherin who recently tried to end his own life. Seeking answers to his strange predicament, Harry returns to Hogwarts, and causes quite the stir through staff and students - especially when they come to realise he is not the same boy as before.

    He tries to avoid suspicion, but as his quest for the truth draws more and more attention to him, Harry begins to think that he might not like what he will discover.

    Summary

    There can be no greater gift given to a Necromancer than a soul fragment. Hariel as a true-born Necromancer figures Tom Riddle must have been courting her since the moment of her birth considering when he gave his to her. She naturally accepts his offer; it's a Horcrux for goodness sake. But she can't quite understand why Tom keeps trying to run from her after she does unless he wants her to prove herself to him? Well, she can oblige.

    Perhaps Molly will help her with that Love Potion after all?

    Drabble-ish, some longer chapters, some short ones!

    Summary

    “Go.” She said, not quite yelling but suddenly intense as she herded Harry back, away from the pillar and towards the tracks. “Go now, boy, or you’ll miss your train!”

    He looked behind his shoulder, there was a train....he hadn’t heard it approach. The doors were open and waiting, and for no good reason at all, he stepped inside. The strange little woman didn’t follow him on, she simply stood there watching him. that same incomprehensible smile on her face.

    “Which path will you choose?” She asked again, just before the doors closed, replacing his view of her with his own, pale reflection.

    ===================

    Sirius was gone, and Harry's world was crumbling through his fingers. All he wanted was a little peace, just a moment to himself.

    Maybe it was a wish come true.

    Maybe it was just the machinations of a strange little witch and her enchanted locket.

    When Harry found himself, now fifty years in the past, on his birthday he doesn't question it too much.

    He just take the opportunities set before him.

    Summary

    "A second chance,“ Death said.

    Harry stopped in front of a bench and turned to look at the being. "A second chance at what?"

    "Life."

    Harry laughed bitterly. "Because that has worked out so great the first time?"

    Death tilted its head. "You've changed," it stated.

    "Life does that to you," Harry said and his mind felt clearer than ever, "Or should I say the last seven years. I never really left this place, have I? I lived a life feeling not quite dead and not alive either," he spat.

    "I know how you feel," Death said after a moment, grinning.

    "Oh, do you," Harry retorted and pierced Death with a look.

    The being's smirk widened as it leaned closer.
    "Bored."
    Years after the war, Harry Potter lives an apathetic life. When Death offers him a second chance he takes it.
    Accompanied by the being, Harry travels back to the summer before Sirius dies. Inside his younger body and the memories of an older self, Harry realizes that being connected to Death may have twisted his morals a little more than expected.
    Seeking to make up for the boredom of past years, Harry isn't above carving his own space between two sides to even out the playing field.

    Summary

    The last real thing Harry remembers is standing across from Voldemort and watching the killing curse fly at his face.

    Then he visited a fluffy white limbo that somewhat resembles King Cross Station and instead of choosing to move on or go back he does something else entirely.

    And wakes up in his cupboard on the morning of Dudley's eleventh birthday.

    Because that makes sense.

    (No. No it doesn't.)

    But Harry is going to roll with it anyway.

    Summary

    Penny Potter may be the twin of Harry Potter but she does not share his proclivity for a hatred of the Potions Master, Severus Snape. Despite Snape's efforts to keep the girl at a distance, Penny's life becomes dangerously entangled with Dumbledore's spy. Trapped on the side Harry is trying to defeat, will Severus Snape be able to protect Penny Potter? Or will he make the same mistake twice?

    This is a long haul fic that focuses almost entirely on the OC and Snape, and how that gives a different perspective on cannon events.

    Summary

    There was nothing special about the new second-year Slytherin.
    Dressed in over-sized, second hand robe, he looked even smaller than other 12-year-olds. That pair of dorky glasses and messy raven-colored hair which resembled bird-nest didn't make him look any better.
    The boy was definitely nothing special. Tom was sure.
    Until he met those vivid green eyes
    ===============================================================================
    12-year-old Harry never expected that entering Tom Riddle's diary would result in his arrival in 1940s of real world.
    Or it was what it appeared to be.
