Summary
Harry Potter died saving everyone. But the world kept turning, and something even worse came. Death drops him off in snowy 1938 London to stop the world from burning once more.
Just one problem. He's got paws instead of thumbs.
In the garden of Wool's Orphanage, Tom Riddle's first friend is a tiny snake. Billy Stubbs kills her with a trowel. Tom takes his revenge - brilliant and vicious, but he's so desperately outnumbered that when his bullies corner him, Harry can't help but intervene. A debt Tom repays by designing a collar that can bind a Grim.
Sometimes the road to redemption is paved with ash.
— a.k.a. a dark time-travel romance following Tom's journey from boy to man, Harry's struggle between justice and mercy, and whether caring can redeem someone - or if it only makes them worse.

Summary
What I wanted to write was a quick one-shot that explored the idea of Harry being the biological son of Voldemort, only Voldemort doesn't know he has a son and is also as evil as ever. Meanwhile, Harry is just a charismatic kid with a snake and ridiculously powerful magic.
It turned into a series rewrite.
Here's book three.
Features: pretty much everyone having a horrible year. Really, I'm trying to think of someone who has a good year and I can't think of ONE.
Also features: Harry Potter discovering teenage rebellion (and Merlin capitalizing on that fact); Remus Lupin being the best damn DADA Professor Hogwarts has ever seen; Ron Weasley living in the state we call denial and making it everyone else's problem; Hermione Granger planning a murder; Sirius Black, who just wanted to kill ONE RAT, how has it spiraled this badly; a catastrophic miscommunication; Tom Riddle trying to keep his idiot relative alive (it should not be as hard as it is but here we are); and a Theodore Nott that's- well. You'll see.

The W in Weasley stands for Werewolf by gonzoclock

Summary
When a werewolf comes out of nowhere and attacks nineteen-year old Arthur Weasley, he thinks his life is over before it's even really begun. He's wrong, of course, and now all of forty years later the Weasley family is thriving, happy, and healthy- and every one of them is a werewolf.
Things are going really well for eleven-year old Ron... except for the part where he has to get through school without anyone finding out his family's secret while simultaneously keeping his new brother alive. Easy-peasy. Right?
(Pay no mind to the one-eyed beast that seems to be lurking in the shadows- it's almost certainly nothing to worry about.)
Features the entire Weasley family adopting Harry Potter practically the second they lay eyes on him (or before that, even); Ron Weasley finding himself being altogether far too nice too slimy gits who don't deserve it; Percy Weasley doing his best; Harry deciding that being enemies with this Malfoy kid is too much work actually; Hermione Granger being as smart and ruthless as ever; Severus Snape who did not, and I repeat, did NOT sign up for ANY of this; and much, much more

Summary
If Kat had a choice, she certainly would not have chosen the Dursleys as her family. Her chosen family would love her. She wouldn't have to act tough or mean or rude... She would be safe.
Sirius just wanted one glimpse of his goddaughter before hunting down that rat. When he sees her fighting with her uncle, he knows he needs to seek more than revenge. He needs to give her the family she deserves.
