Summary
On his darkest days, Tom Riddle had written into his diary, "Sometimes, I wish I'd never been born." Ginny put the golden chain around her neck, like a hangman's noose. She took the hourglass in her hands, closed her eyes, and spun.

Summary
“And they’re calling him ‘The Boy Who Lived’? Mycroft asked.
“It’s quite a legacy,” Fudge defended.
Mycroft scoffed. “It’s quite a mouthful.” He watched as Potter’s eyes crinkled.Mycroft prided himself on his intelligence and his control. Right now he knew more than both British ministers and had control over two Harry Potters.
It was like Christmas, his birthday, and Easter combined.Series

Summary
After something of an interesting start to the summer, Harry and Theo find themselves in the safe confines of Snape’s home. To bad the school year can’t hold the same peace that they’d found then. The Triwizard Tournament has come back once more, and with a new threat waiting in the wings, even the spirits of the dead are worried that Harry might join him and become one.

Not discontinued, am currently going to be going through and re reading everything that I’ve written for this to remember everything, and also to edit out grammar mistakes. I am going to be doing Podfic chapters for all of this as I do so, so it will take a minute but new chapters will be coming soon even if they still might be a monthly thing.

Summary
Ari figures that finding herself in the world of Harry Potter with memories of things that haven't happened yet is a big enough plot deviance that she might as well go ahead and change everything else.
Now she has to plot several rescues, look for at least one competent adult, and find the nearest library. Hopefully before anyone figures out just how much she knows.

This is gorgeous and almost philosophical. It made me appreciate my own life more.

Summary
Harry Potter seeks meaning when his life ends far too soon and he is reborn in the past as the daughter of Walburga and Orion Black. He has big goals for changes he wants to achieve in the wizarding world but it is easier said than done when your mind rebels against being in a girl's body and your body rebels against the terrifying parents you are being brought up by.
Harry had always thought being an orphan was the worst fate he could have had but after having Sirius' parents as his own, he can now safely say that he would much prefer to be an orphan again, thank you very much!

Summary
When Hermione Granger decides that the only way to stop Voldemort is to go back in time and love the evil out of him, Harry Potter laughs. Then he agrees.
Harry Potter wakes in 1928 with an accidentally age-regressed Hermione and a half-baked plan to change the course of history. He suddenly finds himself with two small children to raise—one of which has the potential to grow into a Dark Lord. Living under a new name and building a quiet life in 1930s Godric's Hollow, Harry’s singular focus becomes raising his children with love and affection.
As political tensions rise and long-buried legacies awaken, Harry finds himself entangled with Lord Arcturus Black III—who might be everything he ever wanted, if he can just manage not to hex the posh git first.
Time travel/reincarnation. Found family. Courtship rituals. Domestic fluff. Pretty-swift-not-really-slow-burn romance meets magical chaos, with a cast of precocious children, looming Dark Lords (cough Grindlewald cough), and at least one snake who may or may not be a prophet.

Bookmarker's Notes
18/? plot is basically fluff and slice of life but in a good way
slightly aro relationship vibes, also in a good way
