Summary
"You are a witch." Tom Riddle said to her on the 28th of June, near the river in the woods.
"I am a witch," she said, the words flying out of her mouth before she could hold them back.~*~
When Tom Riddle Sr discovers that one Merope Gaunt is a witch, instead of setting her ablaze like his parents would have liked him to do, he chooses to use her power for his ambition.
A tale of pureblood politics, muggle aristocracy and self-confidence growth.(Hiatus but one day I'll finish it in swear. I'll try to pick it up in September 2025)

Summary
Children’s hair sometimes changes color as you grow. When he’s young enough for it not to be unusual, but old enough to know he’ll get in trouble for doing something ‘freakish’ again, Harry's hair goes from his father's dark locks to his mother's bright, most-likely-magical red hair.
It changes everything about who he identifies with, who he wants to grow up to be, and who he thinks he is. Instead of having James Potter as his idol, Lily turns out to be a much better influence.
So instead of seeing a scruffy, most-likely-muggleborn boy standing beside him in Madam Malkin's before their first year, Draco only has eyes for the scarlet-haired, green-eyed creature who just walked into his life. Not that Harry will ever notice, given he's trying to simply survive Hogwarts.Story Discord: https://discord.gg/8b7zt5PBHp
