when we find ourselves back at the start by valiantlybold

Summary
Alternate timelines may move parallel to each other but that doesn’t mean these timelines are always in perfect sync.
When a two-hundred-year-old Harry dies in one timeline and a fifteen-month-old Harry is struck by the Killing Curse in another, an accident happens.
This is what we call a cosmic coincidence.
The results?
A fifteen-month-old baby with all the memories of a two-hundred-year-old man.
Surely, this won't cause any changes in the timeline. Right?

Summary
Harry is a child. Why is it his job to save the school? Why is it his job to do anything other than attend classes and do homework?
It’s not his job, but it seems Dumbledore is trying to make it Harry’s job.
And well, after living with the Dursleys so long only to end up under the thumb of a brand new manipulator, can Harry really be blamed for running away?
If no one else sees value in Harry, then it’s Harry’s job to find value in himself. That is a job he can live with.
*
An eleven-year-old boy goes on a journey of self-discovery and self-love.
Let’s see what happens.(And he also maybe saves the world?)

A/N: I got some questions in comments so to clarify: the disability tag WILL NOT apply to Harry at any point in the fic. There is a character who is mute, and remains so for the duration of the fic, and the tag applies only to them. If you have questions or concerns regarding your well-being while reading, feel free to drop a comment and I'll do my best to help out! <3- Language:

Summary
Two weeks. That’s all it takes to change everything.
From the cage of Privet Drive to the marble halls of Gringotts, Harry’s world cracks open: food offered with care, truths written in another hand, rituals that strip him bare and begin to rebuild what was broken. With Narcissa and Draco at his side, and Sirius’s survival no longer a dream but proof, Harry learns what it means to be seen—and what it costs to claim his inheritance.
But healing is only the beginning. Beyond the rituals and ledgers waits a choice: where to go when there is no home left, and who to trust when every answer raises new questions.Series

Chains of the Past, Bonds of the Future (Ashes into Light) by AzzyLee
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
02 Oct 2025
Tags
Summary
After Sirius falls through the Veil, Harry expects another summer of silence and starvation. Instead, a house-elf delivers food, letters, and a two-way journal that change everything. Drawn into the care of Narcissa and Draco Malfoy, Harry discovers truths long hidden: Sirius is alive, his inheritance has been stolen, and he is more than just “The Boy Who Lived.”
What begins with fragile trust grows into something larger — a training sanctuary where time itself bends, bonds are reforged, and the golden stag finds his white dragon. As Britain fractures under Dumbledore’s weakening grip and Voldemort waits in the shadows, Harry and his found family prepare for war, for healing, and for a future none of them could face alone.

Summary
Little Whinging, Surrey is a place where individuality goes to die. Row after row of identical houses line the streets with pristine, white picket fences and perfectly pruned hedges and house perfectly normal families. Those who live on Privet Drive are no exception to this.
But there is one little boy who does not fit into that mould.
Little Hari Potter, who has befriended snakes and knows their ways, hears his neighbors whispering of things he wanted them to notice and says, “Aunt Petunia, did you hear? Mrs. Number Six thinks we’re too poor to afford clothes for two children. I heard her talking about asking the neighbors for donations for us. Isn’t that nice of her? I know that I’m a huge burden on you all, so I’m glad that someone is stepping up to help out.”
And that simply will not do. The Dursleys care more for their reputation than anything else, and so things slowly but surely begin to change as a result.
The Hari Potter who arrives at Hogwarts could never sort anywhere but Slytherin.

Summary
On Harry's 10th birthday, he falls gravely ill. So ill that the Dursleys, after days of leaving the boy in agony, are forced to take him to the hospital. When Muggle medicine fails, Severus Snape is the one to answer the call for aid. He soon realizes that all he has been told of the boy's 'pampered', 'loved' and 'spoiled' life have been utter fabrications.
When Severus sees the depths to which Albus Dumbledore is willing to sink to play games with their lives, he decides he must protect the boy from the Headmaster, before it is too late.

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.

Summary
AU. Harry accidentally Apparates to an empty Grimmauld Place when he’s nine instead of to the top of the school roof when he escapes Dudley’s gang. The house is empty except for portraits and sometimes a speaking wooden face, and Harry has to kill his own food, and there’s something nasty in the cellars, and some of the portraits are mad. But this is still a vast improvement over the Dursleys.

Summary
It began, like many other variations of the same tale, with a prophecy. Given by the same woman, about the same two men. A true prophecy with the power to shape the world. Told in the presence of the Headmaster of Hogwarts and overheard by another. Half-heard with great consequence.
But that is where the similarities end. For this prophecy was not about a mere Dark Lord and a boy who was destined to carry his soul until death. No, this prophecy was about the Emperor of the World, the Man Who Conquered, and a boy who was destined to be his equal.
This is the story of how The Emperor Consort, His Majesty Harry Potter-Slytherin, rose to glory and power.

Summary
Once upon a time, a lonely girl met an abused boy. She gave him a birthday card, he gave her Pixie Stix, and they gave each other confidence. Then they met a stray dog and learned of another world, the sort of world that swallowed brilliant girls and orphan boys whole and left only the bones.
And they decided to Kick. Its. Ass.
They also kind of got engaged, but they'll sort that out later.
(Now a full canon rewrite with 90% less angst and at least 200% more chaos. Highlights include accidental kidnappings, intentional kidnappings, glitterpigs, eldritch horrors, tooth-rotting fluff, bad-ass children, a handful of competent adults, unexpected medieval weaponry, misuse of household cleaning charms & equipment, and unsupervised Lovegoods.)

Summary
After the tragic loss of her family on October 31, 1981, Amara Potter-Black found herself stuck with a title she considered tacky and a scar that would forever mark her forehead. So why, by Merlin’s beard, the wizarding world thought she’d care about their war was beyond her. As far as she was concerned, she was just a child—a student at Hogwarts in the ‘grand’ house of Slytherin, the one the portraits back home were always going on about. But after this year, all she really wants to do is go home.
