A Rather Useless Inheritance by Blood_Stained_Fingers
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
22 Nov 2023
Tags
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
“Go.” She said, not quite yelling but suddenly intense as she herded Harry back, away from the pillar and towards the tracks. “Go now, boy, or you’ll miss your train!”
He looked behind his shoulder, there was a train....he hadn’t heard it approach. The doors were open and waiting, and for no good reason at all, he stepped inside. The strange little woman didn’t follow him on, she simply stood there watching him. that same incomprehensible smile on her face.
“Which path will you choose?” She asked again, just before the doors closed, replacing his view of her with his own, pale reflection.
===================
Sirius was gone, and Harry's world was crumbling through his fingers. All he wanted was a little peace, just a moment to himself.
Maybe it was a wish come true.
Maybe it was just the machinations of a strange little witch and her enchanted locket.
When Harry found himself, now fifty years in the past, on his birthday he doesn't question it too much.
He just take the opportunities set before him.

Harry Potter & The Mental Hospital: Harry Hunting by ivysaturn
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
02 Jun 2023
Tags
Summary
Harry Potter, a man who has more major mistakes than he has fingers on both hands, tries to kill himself. For reasons he has only just begun to understand, he fails. But not without consequence. As of the week after, he is sent off to a mental hospital -- and is to stay.
Every visitation is a new round of torture -- with Draco slowly falling in love with him, Voldemort himself coming round to say hi, and Hermione trudging up old dirt, Harry can never catch a break.
Harry knows he is not a good person. Dumbledore knows this, too. They both know perhaps that Harry deserves to die. But he lives, and everyone else suffers for it.

Summary
Tom Marvolo Slytherin has it all.
There was a time when he had nothing, a long time ago. Faded memories of a childhood of rejection, hunger and hatred. But things were different now. He had a powerful last name, a promising career, allies and enemies who cringed at the mention of his name. He had wealth, influence abroad and the respect of the man who was never a mentor, but now a friend.
He had it all, except his soulmate.

Summary
Snape narrows his eyes and gives him a once-over, which makes Harry more uncomfortable than he wants to admit. What is he looking for? Weaknesses? The words on Harry’s hand shouldn’t be visible in the dark, but Harry makes sure to keep the injury turned away from Snape either way.
“Potter,” Snape says when his eyes reach Harry’s face again. “Are you drunk?”
…What?
“No…? I don’t have time to get drunk, sir.”
As soon as the words leave his mouth, Harry already regrets them. But seriously, how can Snape think that he’s getting drunk in the middle of the week, considering everything he’s dealing with?

Summary
Harry starts walking up and down, frantically going through all the ways he could react, all the things he could do, dismissing most of them right away. He glances at his watch more than once, his heart rate increasing every single time.
Ten minutes later, Harry has a plan. It’s very loose and full of holes, but it’s still better than what Dumbledore came up with.
Harry takes a deep breath and glances at his watch one last time. Twenty-seven minutes. Harry has twenty-seven minutes left before Voldemort will realize Harry won’t surrender. It should be enough time for what Harry has in mind, if only barely.
Harry runs to the door and ignores the shouts of the portraits. Dumbledore is the loudest, but Harry ignores him just the same.
Dumbledore is dead. If he needed to tell Harry something, he should have done it when he was alive.

Summary
When Harry made it to the Chamber of Secrets, there were a lot of things he was expecting. He could be too late and stumble upon Ginny’s corpse, he could be greeted by Slytherin’s deadly beast, or he could meet the heir of Slytherin— undoubtedly an immensely powerful foe. All in all, he rather expected someone to die.
So he was suitably surprised when he hissed “open” and found himself staring at a man holding out a rose.
Hold on… was that Tom?
Crack treated seriously.

Summary
“You cannot throw a ten-year-old into Azkaban, minister!”
“We aren’t throwing him anywhere. Besides, it’s just a temporary-”
“You cannot punish a child for their accidental magic!”
“How sure are you that it was an accident? For all we know, he could be dangerous. He killed three people and doesn’t show any regret.”
“Of course, he doesn’t! Look at him! He’s in shock! I’m not even sure he can hear us.”
Harry blinks and closes his eyes. Why do they need to be so loud? Why can’t they just shove him into a cupboard and leave him alone? He’s so tired.
The adults keep talking, but Harry doesn’t try to listen to them anymore. Why bother? They will do with him whatever they want, either way. That’s how it will always be.

Summary
Harry is below average in almost every way, but that's alright. He doesn't need to be smart to support his father, the man-who-lived, with the one thing he excels at: healing injuries solely with the power of his mind.
Life might be a little dull, but Harry takes comfort in the sense of purpose he gets from healing his father's injuries.
And then Harry finds Voldemort in his house, badly injured and chained to a wall, and everything changes.

Summary
Voldemort has no idea that the snake on his lap isn’t a snake at all, that it’s the boy-who-lived who became an Animagus a month ago and decided to spend the summer holidays in his snake form to avoid having to go back to his relatives.
Prepare for a lot of fluff.
