Summary
In a meting to discuss the safety of the school in the wake of Sirius Black´s escape, an auror´s sneakoscope detects tampering with the Sorting Hat. All new students, as well as those sorted the last two years, need to be re-sorted to see if their housing was a product of the compulsion spell found in the Sorting Hat.
For Harry and Hermione, this might mean they might get the second chance they thought they would not get, both at feeling as they belong and getting the guidance and help they expected when they entered the magical world.
No one expects the Gryffindor Golden Boy, the Boy-Who-Lived, to be placed anywhere other than with the lions, so why is his re-sorting taking so long? As he sits and waits for the annoyingly long sorting ceremony to end, Severus Snape starts to wonder if he has missed something about the Potter brat, for surely there is nothing not-Gryffindor about him.
And more importantly, how was such a powerful magical object as the Sorting Hat tampered with? And why?

Summary
After his showdown with Voldemort at the end of his first year, Harry decides he's had enough of being pushed around by the Dursleys and, since Dumbledore wouldn't let him go anywhere else, decided to try and negotiate for his freedom.
What will come of these negotiations and what effect will it have on Harry and his school years if he has the chance to choose his own path in life?

Harry Potter: Durmstrang Year One by Faithless_3105

Summary
Many had called Igor Karkaroff a weak man over the years but few would call him stupid; self serving yes, but not stupid. That very nature was what brought him to a sleepy suburb of Surrey in July 1991. You see he knew that Harry Potter would now be old enough to attend a school, he'd done the maths, and while the whole of wizarding Britain assumed that the boy would attend Hogwarts, like all good British wizards should, Igor thought he might offer the boy an alternative to try to persuade the young 'saviour' to his school. He could already imagine the coup it would be to pull that feather right from under Dumbledore's nose and, luckily for him, Harry Potter doesn't even seem to need that much persuading.
Join Harry as he learns to be a wizard in a very different magical environment and see the changes that can happen when you are free to make your own choices in life.

Summary
Once upon a time, Harry Potter hid for two hours from Dudley in a chemistry classroom, while a nice graduate student explained about the scientific method and interesting facts about acids. A pebble thrown into the water causes ripples.
Contains, in no particular order: magic candymaking, Harry falling in love with a house, evil kitten Draco Malfoy, and Hermione attempting to apply logic to the wizarding world.

Summary
Before his third year of Hogwarts has even begun, Harry faces three whole weeks of unsupervised time in Diagon Alley. In that time he takes a trip to Gringotts - and that changes everything.
Burdened with the knowledge that Dumbledore has been blocking his family magic, and manipulating far more than he ever thought possible, Harry doesn't know who he can trust; but he knows he can't keep going that way. There's a whole world of lore and politics and history to catch up on, and the more he learns, the more Harry realises his true place in the world, and how much is being kept hidden from him. All the while, Dumbledore's twinkling eyes are constantly watching, and Harry can't let on how much he knows.
With help from unexpected places, Harry starts on a journey to end the war, and reshape the wizarding world. With how much he looks like James Potter, people have forgotten one important thing about him - he is Lily Evans' son, and she was one hell of a witch.
