    Summary

    When Gregory Goyle's father tells him to "pick winners," Greg thinks it means following Draco Malfoy like always. But after watching Harry Potter refuse Draco's friendship, save Hermione from a troll, and face down a basilisk, Greg starts to wonder if he's been following the wrong person.
    While Draco talks about what his father will do, Harry actually does things. And when the Chamber of Secrets opens and students start getting petrified, the difference becomes impossible to ignore. Harry doesn't just complain or make threats—he goes into the Chamber himself to save Ginny Weasley.
    Some people follow tradition. Others follow whoever shouts loudest. But the smart ones? They follow power. Real power.
    A story about recognizing genuine strength versus inherited status, told through the eyes of Harry's most unlikely allies.

    Summary

    𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘔𝘢𝘸. 𝘈 𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘧 𝘣𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘳𝘶𝘪𝘯. 𝘈 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘴. 𝘈 𝘩𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥𝘳𝘦𝘯 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘩𝘢𝘥 𝘯𝘰𝘯𝘦.

    Harry Potter never made it to Hogwarts.

    Brought unconscious to the dark alleys of Knockturn, he should’ve died— cold, angry, and forgotten. Instead, he carved out a place for himself with bloodied hands and stolen wands. He built an empire from an abandoned factory, guarded by outcasts and orphans, where creatures fight for food and every day is a struggle. He’s not a boy anymore. Not a hero. Not a victim. He’s a thunderstorm.

    Then, his name comes out of the Goblet of Fire— a name no one should know— he’s dragged back into the world that left him to starve. The world of robes and rules, where boys live in castles and forget the rest exist. He’s not welcome there. He doesn't want to be.

    And yet, in the middle of all this, stands Lord Voldemort— beautiful, terrifyingly human, and wearing a smile like a knife. He offers Harry an alliance. Harry knows better. But monsters recognize each other, don’t they?

    And this time, Harry Potter isn’t here to play by the rules.

    He’s here to burn the house down.

    Summary

    Harry Potter was many things. He was a powerful wizard, the master of death, a powerful Auror, a problem-solver....sort of😅, and above all he was someone who craved family. He wanted a family that would love him for him and above all would not be FAKE! He had a good life...mostly after all that trash with Voldemort and the war but still he craved a new life where he could be loved and do what he wanted.

    He though the whole master of death thing was just a fancy title....yeah it wasn't😬🫣.It just didn't mean what he thought it did which was apparently reincarnation after a long as hell Wizarding life and being reborn into an immortal species! Not only that, he just so happened to be reborn as a character from a book he read as a kid that was on their way to being hated and tortured AGAIN.

    Yeah no.

    Harry Potter now Maeglin Lomion was not about to deal with a prissy princess, naive cowards, royal drama, psycho Demigods, crazy relatives, bigoted relatives, and FATE!

    He's gonna lead his own life this time and no ones gonna stop him!

    Summary

    Harry has 1000% sass and all the balls cannon Harry wishes he had. This is going to be a very anti authority Harry Potter fanfic. He isn't going to be anyone's golden boy. He says fuck and smokes pot in later chapters, if this sounds entertaining, please give it a read. Also don't expect me to update regularly, I don't have any schedule ever.

    Summary

    Potter waggled his pointer finger and beamed happily. The Bertie Bott's beans made a racket bouncing off the walls of their small box as he shook them in smug, childish delight. “I’m gonna annoy you forever, Malfoy.”

    Draco huffed. “I don’t need you to,” he snapped. “I don’t need your help.”

    Potter raised his eyebrows. Draco preened internally — Potter was making the sort of expression where if he could raise just one brow, he would have, but he couldn’t, because that talent was uniquely Draco’s.

    “I know you don't,” Potter shot back, surprising him. “But do you want it?”

    ~*~*~

    Draco has some issues with his inheritance. Regardless of whether Draco wants him to or not, Harry is here to help.

    Summary

    After the war, the Ministry promised peace. What they presented instead was Project Severance—a radical magical program that splits convicted Death Eaters into two separate beings:
    One who remembers. One who doesn’t.

    Draco Malfoy is their most dangerous subject yet.

    The Penitent—cold, guilt-ridden, and locked in a magically reinforced prison—remembers every choice he made. Every life he destroyed.
    The Clean—charming, curious, and seemingly reformed—has no memory of the war or the crimes that branded him a monster.

    Hermione Granger, now leading the Department of Magical Ethics, is assigned to monitor both.

    But when memory bleed begins, and the two Dracos start to merge, Hermione finds herself caught between the man who once stood on the wrong side of history…
    and the one who might still rewrite it.

    Love was never part of the protocol.
    Now, neither is survival.

    Summary

    It only took one change—one vial of Wolfsbane under the full moon—for everything to shift.

    Remus keeps his mind, keeps his job, and when Sirius is dragged away, he doesn’t let him go quietly. With clarity and quiet defiance, he stays, fights, and protects. For Harry. For Sirius. For the chance to make it right.

    Sirius is still a fugitive. But now, he’s not alone.

    What follows is a slow-burning resistance—letters smuggled across borders, stolen moments, and something long-buried beginning to bloom again. As Remus risks everything to prove Sirius’ innocence, their bond deepens—built on memory, hope, and the ache of almost.

    Meanwhile, Harry grows with a godfather who writes back, a professor who won’t leave, and feelings for a boy wrapped in silver and secrets. And deep beneath the lake, a secret Black legacy waits to be awakened.

    Or: Remus drinks his Wolfsbane—and the world changes. Softer, fiercer, and infinitely more alive.

    Summary

    It was an impulse, an instinct even, but ever since Malfoy lied about not recognizing Harry at the mansion—and that was, what, two whole hours ago?—Harry had no other choice, really, but to grab Malfoy’s hand and force him to disapparate with the others.

    Now he's facing the consequences of his actions: a non-compliant Malfoy, outraged friends, and a growing affection he hadn’t known had taken root in him already.

    Summary

    When a heartbroken Hermione runs off after unexpectedly finding out about Draco’s arranged marriage, he expects Auror Potter to pay him a visit. He assumes it will be painful and probably end with his murder.

    What he doesn’t expect is The Chosen One helping him dissolve his marriage contract by using blackmail, bribery, felonies, and the help of his own mother - all so he can get Hermione back by the end of the day.

    Summary

    If someone were to ask him when he changed, when he went from Harry Potter, Gryffindor punching bag of the Wix World, to Lord Harry Potter, depraved and immoral monster, he might tell you it was when he realized that Dumbledore could have fought for Sirius to have a trial.

    He might tell you it was when his godfather Sirius Black fell into the Veil and he lost the only true parental figure in his life.

    What he won’t tell you is that it was none of those.

    It was when he found out Ginny and Molly Weasley had been dosing him with a love potion since his Hogwarts years. It was that day that Harry Potter died, and Lord Harry James Potter was born. From that moment on Harry did whatever and whoever he wanted.

    Which had led to this glorious, debauched, and very immoral moment. It was Lily’s coming of age family dinner and it was time for the Weasley family to experience what it felt like to have no control and be horrified at another's actions.

    Summary

    I don't offer a last name, and he seems to notice but I'd assume that he doesn't believe it to be on purpose, chalking it up to my nerves. It's clear by the slight tremble of my hands why he hadn't offered his own at introductions.
    ~
    It's the first year and Harry Potter has a much different beginning. A bit more cynical and a lot more self-aware of himself and his abilities causes him to stive for excellence. A certain blonde boy doesn't seem to be put off by his less than enthusiastic beginning either.
