Summary
In September of 1971, Severus Snape finds a forgotten portrait of the Slytherin family in a dark corner of the Slytherin Common Room. At the time, he has no idea that talking portrait will affect the rest of his life.
On 31st July 1995, Harry Potter disappears from Little Whinging a few minutes after midnight. The means of his departure are unfathomable, and the Order's only relief in their concern is the fact that Voldemort was not responsible.
The rest of Wizarding Britain is too busy tearing down their Wizarding Savior via the press to be much concerned, at least until certain Slytherin allies decide that enough is fucking well enough.

Summary
Being reborn as a daughter of the House of Black was bewildering, but realising they weren't actually evil was another problem entirely. Despite a name and gender change, Harry Potter wasn't someone who would let their family suffer for no reason. Lyra was a Black, and Blacks protect their own.

Summary
Dumbledore doesn't make it in time for Harry's trial, and the outcome is very different. Harry is expelled, his wand snapped.
But he refuses to give up. And he is done waiting around for Albus Dumbledore to give him information.
Deciding to take his life into his own hands, Harry asks for training from several Order members, preparing himself to fight Voldemort while the whole wizarding world believes he's helpless and back in the muggle world.
Meanwhile, his friends are at Hogwarts, tackling their own problems in the form of Dolores Umbridge. Harry hadn't expected the separation to be so difficult - or for a certain mischievous redhead to make the waiting game they'd entered into so very excruciating.
He might have lost his home in Hogwarts, but with Sirius and Remus around, Harry begins to learn that rebuilding a family isn't as hard as he'd anticipated.

Waking up at 12 Grimmauld Place wouldn't have been something concerning except for a few things.
1. Harry had fallen asleep in the Eighth years' dormitory.
2. He wasn't even in the right bedroom at Grimmauld Place.
3. Sirius Black was standing right in front of him, looking very much alive.- Language:

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
“I didn’t expect you to be an Unspeakable,” Zabini said casually, his tone light but curious as he signed the last line. “Everyone was so certain you’d end up as an Auror.”
Harry hummed, glancing up briefly before returning to his form. “I was, actually. Did the full training, served for almost five years… then I got bored.”
Zabini’s laugh broke free this time, rich and surprisingly unrestrained. “Only you, Potter, could find chasing down Dark wizards boring.”
-
His heart dropped like a stone as he took in the familiar walls, the thin mattress he sat atop of, the faint smell of dust and damp wood. His chest tightened as realization dawned.Finally, his gaze dropped to his hands.
Small. Pudgy. Child-like.
“Fuck,” he muttered, his voice trembling as the weight of it all sank in.

Summary
How is it even possible that Harry falls into another dimension where nobody knows who he is, and winds up attending Hogwarts as Harry Grindelwald, great-grandson of the Dark Lord?
Balthilda, still living somewhere in the 19th century, said: “This is my nephew, G-”
“Harry!”
“-Grindelwald,” Balthilda finished, smiling pleasantly, if vacantly, at her neighbours. The Montgomerys stared. Harry turned his smile up brighter, reaching over the garden fence to shake Mr. Montgomery’s hand.

Summary
“I wonder what monster tastes like?”
Harry hadn’t even realised that he had spoken out loud until Snape responded.
“It varies, depending on your tastes.”
Harry blinked at the man in confusion. “You’ve tried monster before?”
“Of course,” Snape scoffed. “Almost all Hogwarts students have at some stage, it’s why it had to be added to the sex education talk.”
Or: when a seemingly innocent musing in detention leads Harry on a very unexpected (and very dubious) path.
Written for Kinktober 2025 but all of my own creation.

Tim has rescued Bruce from floating around the past, but lost everything else that matters to him.
Now that he’s alone, teamless, no longer a Wayne, or Robin… what’s left for Tim?Jason looks murderous. “God DAMN it, Tim, this was not the situation I had in mind when I generously taught you how to be a younger brother out of the kindness of my heart!”
Even more shocked by this, Dick asks incredulously, “You, Jason Todd-Wayne, tried to give younger brother lessons? Where did you even get the audacity?”
Jason rounds on him hotly. “Bitch, you wish you knew how to be a younger brother!”
“FOCUS,” Tim demands. “We’ve got like, an hour to pull this off.”
