Summary
When Harry Potter received his Hogwarts letter, he found out the terrible truth; his parents abandoned him, the world thought him dead, and he had a younger twin brother who was hailed as a hero. His parents were public figures who would not like to see their dirty secret resurface. His godfather, the only person who might care about his continued existence, had split from the Potters and left Britain soon after. Harry could contact him, but did not want to risk facing another rejection. Fear won out: he entered Hogwarts under an assumed name. He Sorted Ravenclaw and never let himself look at Charlie Potter, the Boy-Who-Lived in Gryffindor. He focused on his studies and his friends. For three years, he didn't make waves.
He entered fourth year expecting much of the same. Then the Triwizard tournament was announced, and the papers claimed that Sirius Black would be accompanying the Durmstrang delegation.

Summary
There is a picture in one of the books of a worn young man, heavily scarred with gentle eyes. Remus Lupin, he is identified as. The man who was watching Charles, and presumably Harry. The man who died defending them. Harry traces his fingertips over the man’s face and wonders.
And then he stops, and reels all those thoughts into a tangled knot and tucks it away.
They didn’t want him; that’s fine. He doesn’t want them either.

Alternatively; Harry James Evans is Sorted Slytherin, desperate to stay hidden from the family that gave him up so many years ago. Severus Snape owes debts to a child presumed dead and the child's tormented godfather; and now he has a cunning, paranoid snake to charm all without tipping anyone else off to the boy's true identity.

Summary
Latin; a dead language with no practical applications except perhaps the deciphering of old texts and as a particularly quaint party trick.
Thankfully, as Harry finds out, Latin is not as dead as he was first taught when he decided to learn the language. It wouldn't have mattered anyway, of course; he loved Latin, and would have been proud to know it even had it been as useless as it was pretty. But in the world of Wizards, the world of Magic, Harry realizes his rare talent with words is particularly valuable, and allows him to use magic that no one's ever heard of, that no one's ever seen. But as time goes on, and he becomes more and more entangled in the webs spun by those around him, he starts to realize just how deep the magical rabbit hole goes and how dangerous power like his can be.
All Harry had ever wanted was for the world to make sense.
