Summary
Being a Parselmouth came with the inherent predisposition to understand snake behaviours and imitate them. It was relieving Harry wasn’t going to kill anyone with venom, nor petrify them with his gaze. But also, somewhat frustrating as it was all completely useless. None of the skills that came with being a Parselmouth would help Harry survive Voldemort.
It might, in fact, have the opposite effect. For all Riddle's fury that Harry was the cause of his elder self’s defeat, he was fascinated by the fact Harry was also a Parselmouth. He had grabbed Harry’s face, turning him side to side looking bemusedly enraptured by Harry’s threat display. “At your age, I was imitating much more vicious snakes than this, Harry.”
That may have been all well and good, but Harry didn’t feel very vicious. He felt very threatened and in over his head.

Summary
Harry Potter never destroyed the Diary Horcrux in his second year at Hogwarts. Nearly five years later, after the Battle of Hogwarts has concluded, Wizarding Britain has once again turned on the man who had been their saviour twice over.
Sixteen-year-old Tom Riddle finds his way back to life after draining Lucius Malfoy of his soul. In the time it takes him to catch up on recent events, he finds himself reluctantly fascinated by the Boy-Who-Lived. When they finally meet, Tom attempts to win Harry over, though he's expecting to have to fight Harry instead.
To his great surprise, Harry joins him.
