Summary
If there’s one thing Izuku never imagined becoming after losing One For All, was to be forgotten.
Now a professor at U.A. High, he spends his days teaching and his nights haunted by the life he left behind. He tells himself the quiet is enough, but the ache of his past—of failed dreams, lost purpose, and a failed relationship with his best friend that crumbled under the weight of their differences—refuses to fade.
When a stranger steps out of the shadows with an offer Izuku can’t ignore, he’s thrust into a hidden world of corruption and power. Beneath the polished hero rankings and dazzling debuts lies a web of lies spun by the Hero Commission and government officials—a system built on control, manipulation, and sacrifice.
As Izuku uncovers the truth, his world begins to crumble. Faced with a choice between the life he’s built and the chance to truly make a difference, Izuku must decide: will he cling to the legacy of the hero he once was, or risk everything to fight in the shadows?

Summary
The entire room seems to shift, though no one else notices. Conversations hum, laughter rings from the other end of the hall, silverware clinks against porcelain. Life moves on. And yet—Potter tilts his head back, lips parting around the rim, throat working as he swallows.
Draco watches, transfixed.
He knows what that potion is. Knows that no one should drink it so carelessly, so thoughtlessly, without at least bracing for the consequences. It’s the kind that burns through veins like molten iron, that blackens organs, that stills the heart in a matter of seconds.
Potter lowers the goblet and meets his gaze.
Nothing happens.
Hoarsely, Draco whispers, "Why aren't you dead?"
OR
Hogwarts Eighth year. Post-battle. Where MOD Harry Potter gets passed around by two sons of Death Eaters, his ex-girlfriend, and his defense professor like a blunt.

Summary
“No post on Sundays” Uncle Vernon announced happily, “No damn letters today-”
Something came whizzing down the kitchen chimney as he spoke and caught him sharply on the back of the head. The next moment, thirty or forty letters came pelting out of the fireplace like bullets.
“That does it!” he snapped, his beady little eyes focused solely on Harry, “It’s you that they want. And they won’t stop coming after us until you’re… gone”.
Harry didn't like the sound of that.
“But Vernon, we can’t! You heard what that- that despicable old man told us!”
“Don’t worry, pet” Vernon said, his nasty grin triumphant, “I’ll leave him someplace so far away that those freaks will never trace him back to us. There’s an institute up north, for these- these hopeless cases and whatnot - St Brutus's Secure Centre for Boys. I’ll leave him there, and then we can get back to our nice, normal life”.Or, the one where Harry doesn't attend Hogwarts in first year but finds his way to the wizarding world anyway, and this changes everything.

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.
