Summary
The summer after losing Sirius, Harry is lonelier than ever. In a moment of impulsivity, he learns things about himself that he isn’t sure how to handle.
Back at Hogwarts, Harry has to deal with a new school year–a new potions professor, Occlumency lessons, trying to keep up with friends who seem to forget about him, and, as always, Draco Malfoy. But beneath it all, there’s something else. The feeling that there's something deeply wrong with him.
As war looms closer, Harry has to learn what to hold onto and what to let go.

Summary
"Get out!" she said and even though his legs barely obeyed, Harry did as he was told. Then his aunt took his suitcase out of the boot and put it down next to her nephew. She looked at him, briefly - just for a blink she seemed to hesitate, but then she turned away and walked back to the car. "Goodbye," were her last words, then she pulled the driver's door shut and only moments later, the lights of the car had disappeared into the darkness. // Harry Potter's life changes completely for the second time since his eleventh birthday. Suddenly he finds himself alone in a dirty working-class town - abandoned by his aunt and not knowing what to expect now. All he has is an old letter from his mother and the certainty that his previous life will now be turned upside down again // (A Harry/Snape Fanfiction)

Summary
When Voldemort possessed Harry at the Ministry he had felt something akin to peace. It was easy. Too easy.
What happens if the Horcrux in Harry actually acts like a soul bond and possessing him was the last thing that kept them apart? What if that was what it would take to bring sanity back into Voldemort's life?
This is a story exploring magical theory, incorporating existing Muggle wiccan practices, relationships of nearly every variety and of emotional growth. Harry learns that not everything is black and white, evil and good. Tom actually tries to make things "better" in the Wizarding World but he's still a pretty messed up individual. Maybe Harry will be helping with that?

Summary
Harry Potter has a scar. While it’s not the one the whole wizarding world knows about, it’s the first thing people see when they see his face. It’s the first thing Severus Snape sees when he runs into the lost boy on Diagon Alley, and it haunts him after he looses track of the child. He never would have guessed that the sad, abused child he’d seen that day was Harry Potter.
* Graphic violence tag refers to Harry’s abuse in the first two chapters.
