Summary
In the summer preceding his 5th year, Harry’s forced into a trip with the Dursleys to Spinner’s End to meet one of Petunia’s old friends, and while he’s there, he gets hit by a car.
The author wants you to consider Harry’s luck. No, seriously, ruminate on it for a second. Now, the author wants you to guess who might’ve just run him over.
Yeah. That’s right. Severus Snappy himself.
Oh man. Sure do wonder what’ll happen next.

Summary
“Hello dickhead,” hisses Nagini. "I am here to report your location and abysmally boring daily life back to Tom so he can find a way to kill you faster and more painfully. At least then he’ll give me more rabbits, because hunting is a pain in the arse and those nimble little pieces of shit are bloody tiring to catch.”
Harry stops weeding Aunt Petunia’s lawn in favour of staring at the giant python in the garden hedge next to him.
It’s the holidays after the Triwizard Tournament, Nagini hates this whole spy business, and Harry makes an unexpected friend.

Summary
Harry's name is spat from the Goblet of Fire, turning his excitement for the Tri-Wizard Tournament into a nightmare. The Champions believe he cheated, Dumbledore is less than helpful, and his friends have abandoned him.
Resigned to his fate as a pariah, Harry is about to receive an offer of support from a most unlikely source. Of course, this leads to a domino effect, revealing things Harry and his new friends could never have imagined, changing the course of the war and his life forever.

Summary
Dumbledore has plans for Harry Potter to save the world but Sirius and Remus would rather let the world burn than risk his safety.
---
“I think I’m ready,” Harry said, setting down his wand.
Remus swallowed down his nausea. The first Animagus transformation had the highest likelihood of disaster. After today, Harry could spend the rest of his life half goat or opossum. When Remus died, assuming there was an afterlife, Lily would surely kill him again.
Remus unthinkingly grabbed Sirius’s hand. Sirius, for his part, tried to tamp down his excited grin to a more sympathetic one.
Harry took a deep breath. For several moments nothing happened, then suddenly Harry shrunk down to something small, half-obscured by the unmowed grass.
Remus and Sirius ran to his side.
“Is he… a chicken?” Sirius said.---
This is a Wolfstar raises Harry fic set from 1986 through the second wizarding war. It's the third in a series but can be read standalone. If you’re curious why Sirius, Remus, and Harry left Britain, read Unsorted. If you’re curious why they hate Dumbledore, read Under the Auspices of Generals.

Summary
After the events of Halloween 1981, Sirius is in Azkaban, Harry is with the Dursleys, and Remus is alone.
This is the story of how they come together.
---
Remus's eyes darted back and forth between Dumbledore and McGonagall, astonished to be witnessing her blackmail the headmaster right in front of him.
I love when Minnie gets like this, James's voice in his mind cheeked. Remus internally shushed him.
After a tense silence where Remus half-expected wands to be drawn, McGonagall asked, “When he turns eleven, you would allow him to come to Hogwarts, is that right?”
Albus nodded, his expression unreadable.
“Excellent. If Hogwarts is safe enough when he’s eleven, then I don’t see why he can’t come here now.”

This fic is the sequel to Under the Auspices of Generals but can be read standalone.

Summary
Snape watched Sirius warily as the pureblood boy looked him over, his hands moving up to rub at his throat as he glared at the boy who’d pinned him to the wall. However, now that Sirius was actually looking he could see the small tremor. The fear that Snape had towards Remus. The scars covered by cleverly placed sleeves the same way Sirius knew how to do for his own markings from his parents. How Snape was alone, just like he was.
“Where’s Evans?” Sirius asked warily.
“I don’t need her to fight my battles,” Snape snapped at him. Sirius caught it though. The hurt in his eyes. The self-inflicted anger.
“What, did you two have a falling out?”
Snape blinked before sneering defensively. “Why would I tell you?”
Now normally, this was Sirius’s opportunity to mess with Snape, say something hurtful and see if he could get a laugh out of his friends.
But he didn’t have his friends with him anymore, and it didn’t seem like Snape did either.
“Because Remus is pissed at me right now so I know how it feels if you wanted to talk about it.”

Summary
Dating Draco Malfoy, Harry thinks, will mean being at arms length outside of sex. No unnecessary physical contact or displays of affection. He wants him anyway, inexplicably. Perhaps that is exactly the kind of person he should be with, someone who will never need Harry to kiss him first, because Harry doesn't think he'll ever be that person.

Summary
The customer standing in front of him is quite possibly the most beautiful man Remus has ever seen. Like, he looks like a model or something. He has long, black hair, flattened by water, and just the slightest amount of scruff on his face, and…
And a baby strapped to his chest.
Okay.
