Summary
After Shadowhaunt things are never quite the same. Memories missing or scattering away from conscious thought, magic that feels like it's trying to escape from beneath her skin, and more questions about magic and magical identity than she thought she'd walk away with after everything Darkar had done to her. But she'd been trapped with him and the Trix for a long time, and not even she is fully able to remember everything that happened behind closed doors.
Will she be able to heal and return to the life she had before the Shadow Phoenix came into her life, or will she succumb to the questions and memories perhaps better left forgotten?

Summary
What if a saner Voldemort had spent more of Harry's first year observing her than trying to kill her? What if he knew exactly what to offer her the first time she challenged him?
What if a female Harry Potter had learned to fear Vernon Dursley in a way canon Harry never had? What if Harry chose to protect herself when no one else would?
