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
“Abashed the Devil stood, and felt how awful goodness is, and saw virtue in her shape how lovely: saw, and pined his loss."
-John Milton, 'Paradise Lost'In September of 1942, Tom Riddle is a brilliant, bitter schoolboy on the precipice of becoming a monster. Already wearing his first Horcrux around his finger, he doesn’t plan to let anything halt his ascent towards realizing his ultimate goal: becoming the greatest Dark Lord the world has ever seen.
But when a powerful and mysterious transfer student arrives at Hogwarts, Tom’s initial spark of interest rapidly ignites into an all-consuming obsession, threatening to unravel his carefully laid plans.
When ambition and pride run up against regret and repentance, what will be the outcome? Is there such thing as a soul too mutilated to save?
