Summary
“Harry Potter.”
The cold burrowed into his flesh; the scent of cloying death and molding earth clogged his senses.
“The Boy Who Lived.”
A strange sense of unimaginable loss and disappointment rose inside of Harry. That brilliant, yet cruel boy could’ve been so much more if he’d not stepped down this bloodied path.
Terrible, but great. He pitied this creature.
“Come to die.”
Harry Potter faced the flash of green light with the bravery of a Gryffindor and the broken heart of a Hufflepuff.
When Death gives Harry a third option, one that can save everyone he ever cared about, he takes it unflinchingly. Even when that means doing the impossible: falling in love with the enemy, Tom Riddle.

Summary
So far in the year 1978, Harry Potter has published his first book, graduated from Hogwarts, attended his twin brother's wedding, and received a letter from the dark lord that is terrorizing the Wizarding World. Now, his parents have died of dragon pox as well. It feels as if Harry's solitude has left him in a whole, where all he does is work on his astronomy charts, but the letters from Voldemort just keep coming. And, well, Harry has never had someone to speak with on an intellectual level...

Following the shopping trip to Diagon Alley, after Hagrid returned him to his relatives' home, Harry is faced with a moment of clarity.
He can leave. There's finally somewhere to go where his family can't touch him.
Harry makes the journey back to Diagon Alley alone and changes (without even knowing it) the course of the rest of his life. Unfortunately, his life has already been planned out for him beyond what he could have imagined.... Some people might not be happy that he's messing that up.

Summary
Harry shouldn’t have been surprised when Voldemort was reborn as the young, unfairly fit version of himself.
“My Lord, I live to serve you,” Bellatrix cooed, bowing before him. “I have succeeded where all others failed—I have ensured your rebirth. You will be better, stronger than—”
“I am not your Lord, you mad tramp.”
Harry snorted, unable to stop himself as a look of outrage and embarrassment crossed Bellatrix’s face. She raised a hand to cover her cleavage. “But—my Lord—”
“I am Tom Marvolo Riddle, neither a titled Lord nor the Lord you were apparently expecting.”
or:
Bellatrix uses Harry to resurrect Voldemort, but gets blindsighted when he chooses to seduce Harry Potter instead of kill him.

Summary
It had been three weeks since Harry had mistakenly landed in the 1970s, given his name to Dumbledore as Harry James, and been re-Sorted as a Slytherin.
It had been two weeks since, in an effort to avoid his mother and the Marauders, Harry had started hanging out with Snape.
It had been one week since, to his absolute, gut-wrenching horror, he had been asked out by Lily Evans to Hogsmeade.
Harry had never imagined there could be anything worse than facing down Lord Voldemort in a creepy graveyard. He had been wrong.
Meet Harry Potter. He's broken the timeline, busted his parents' first date, and potentially botched his chances of ever being born.
And, just maybe, he's also caught the attention of a certain rising Dark Lord.

Summary
“What I find absolutely fascinating,” Riddle said, stalking closer, “is you.” He marched forward, backing Harry up until he was pinned to the cool wall of the common room. “Do you know why?”
“No. And I’ll be honest here, Riddle, I don’t particularly care.”
The taller boy grinned at him, small yet infinitely pleased. “That. Right there.” One hand rose and brushed some of Harry’s fringe from his face. “Nathan Ciro was a spineless little boy too afraid of his own shadow to dare even glance in my direction. But you…”
He leaned closer, “You look at me like you want to stab me.”
After an accident, Auror Harry Potter wakes up in the body of fourteen year old Nathan Ciro, a tormented Slytherin who recently tried to end his own life. Seeking answers to his strange predicament, Harry returns to Hogwarts, and causes quite the stir through staff and students - especially when they come to realise he is not the same boy as before.
He tries to avoid suspicion, but as his quest for the truth draws more and more attention to him, Harry begins to think that he might not like what he will discover.

How Can I Be a Dark Lord if I'm Only Using First Year Light Magic? by Watermelonsmellinfellon

Summary
The conclusion of the events of his First Year at Hogwarts leaves Harry Potter feeling wary. When even Hermione is unhappy with authority figures, then obviously things have gotten serious. After much consideration, and a lot of research, Harry finds out just how dire Magical Britain's situation is.
It turns out prejudices extend in every direction, and even Dumbledore isn't as innocent as he wants others to believe. In fact, he is complicit in many of the current problems they are facing.
It seems obvious to Harry, that in order for things to change, he's going to have to make people want it. And the way to do that is, unsurprisingly, to use their own laws to make them see sense, even if it means he must commit immoral acts to see it done.
After all, how could he be a new Dark Lord if he was using First Year Light Magic to make his point known?

Summary
Harry's life post final battle isn't what he expected it would be, and then he dies, just like that.
He gets a second chance but forgets to read the fine-print, and ends up somewhere in the distant past while his body suddenly looks quite differently.
Now he's stuck as a teenager attending Hogwarts again, where he encounters an old enemy, and surprise, it's not Tom Riddle. All Harry has to do now is survive long enough to build a life for himself that's actually worth living.

Summary
In a world where Harry Potter does not travel back in time far enough to turn Tom Riddle's path on its head and prevent the creation of Horcruxes, Voldemort contemplates the life they're building.
Love and regret don’t come easy, and when they do, they aren’t the magical cure-it-all of Dumbledore’s dreams. Harry would claim that such sentiments were better learned late than never, but Voldemort isn’t certain.
Not this Christmas Eve, at least.- Language:
