Summary
There are, surprisingly, worse things than dying on the floor of the Chamber of Secrets after having your soul leeched by the memory of a boy from the 1940's. Like having your mother hover over you and forbid you to ride a broom. Or being watched with pitying eyes wherever you go. Or realizing that the very boy who tried to kill you is not, in fact, dead like everyone believes, but instead lives inside your head.
Ginny Weasley is forced to grin and bear it as she navigates school, a somewhat crippled social life, and the horrors of her past. Tom Riddle is just along for the ride.

Summary
A companion piece to A Study in Resonance.
Grimmauld Place was not a haunted house -- but Sirius was haunted by it nevertheless. For six months, he sheltered Harry, Ron, and Hermione from the war. For four months, he battled the locket. For one month, he lived alone, with only the half-remembered ghosts of his past to keep him company. Through it all, the house watched, and it listened, and it waited.
(Or, an exploration of what it might mean to have a haunted house in a world where magic and ghosts are very much real, and one's greatest enemy is one's own mind).
Contains spoilers for A Study in Resonance, specifically the chapters that cover HP books 6 and 7.

Summary
Adapted from a Tumblr prompt: instead of one adult, postwar character waking up at age eleven with full knowledge of what's to come and a determination to make it go better this time around, what if several of them did?
Or: Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Draco, Neville, Luna, Fred, and George each find themselves children again, fully aware of what's to come and plotting like mad to make it not happen--and each completely unaware that their classmates have found themselves in the same situation and are planning much the same thing.
One person armed with foreknowledge can deftly reweave the timestream. Several people armed with foreknowledge are more likely to tangle it into spaghetti. And it doesn't help that maybe not everyone wants the same happy ending.
