Summary
"I must say Harry," Voldemort admitted softly, rounding the tombstone, pale fingers trailing over the headstone of his father's grave. "I did not expect it to be you."
Harry shrugged, the piercings lining his ear catching the moonlight and drawing Voldemort's warbright gaze as a teasing smile stretched his face. "What can I say? People rarely expect much of me. Oh, before I forget — here."
Hands moving on instinct, Voldemort snatched the object tossed at him, eye twitching as droplets splashed upon his face. Lowering his hands, he glared at the impetuous boy, then looked down. Emotion abandoned him, jaw clenching, knuckles whitening as he took in his...his...
"This is..." he began, trailing off numbly as soul-deep horror clawed its way to his (arguably non-existent) heart.
"Your Diary?" Harry offered, brushing the mildew off the top of a headstone and taking a seat. "Yes."
"Why is it wet?!"
"Ah. Er...heh," rubbing the branching lightening-silver scars across his neck, Harry coughed. "Funny story that. Turns out, Veriteserum doesn't evaporate. It just...kind of... absorbs."

Summary
Harry Potter doesn't have to be an Auror to know that gifts from his dear 'Aunt' Bellatrix come with horrific hidden curses. He just didn't expect a trip to a spa to be so fraught with hidden dangers.
Massively AU. Smut and worldbuilding. Please read the tags!
"I mean," Harry continued, forcing himself to stand straight and not fidget. "I'm not exactly clear on how this works. My Aunt arranged the portkey for me and her letter was… not exactly forthcoming with details. Your—" Coworker? Golem? "— receptionist mentioned something about a Sylvan package, but I missed what that entailed.""Of course," the man replied smoothly, taking a step closer and lowering his hands as he saw Harry relax. "I apologize for the confusion. The constructs who staff certain positions here are good at their jobs, but sometimes there's no replacement for a human touch." The corners of his eyes crinkled slightly as his smile broadened, the faint feathering lines the only sign that time had touched him. "My name is Tom. I'll be your spa attendant and your masseuse. It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Potter."

Summary
The Boy-Who-Lived is dead and the world has rolled on without him. Voldemort's victory over magical Great Britain is complete, but traces of the war linger on.
Ten years later, Harry Potter is just trying to survive each day as it comes. He knows the rules; he keeps his head down and he does his best to blend in with the muggles. He keeps his magic locked up tight and doesn't stay in the same place for too long.
Harry's not trying to win a war, he's just trying to escape it.
Magic rolled over him, a crackle of heat sliding over his skin and the tinny taste of metal and juniper coating the back of his mouth. It was a crushingly familiar weight, pinning him in place with an iron hand that made a small voice in the back of his head begin to scream, setting his skin prickling and crawling. Seclusion wards, Harry thought, automatic and numb. Walls raised to keep prey in and competing predators out.

Summary
It's summer, just weeks after Voldemort's demise- or downfall or whatever pleases you to call it. Sure Hermione and Ron are alive, and yet so many more have died. The Weasley family? Just Ron, George, and Molly now...
Maybe it's selfish to focus on the small picture at a time like this, but Harry can't help but feel it was all a bit anti-climactic.
What's really changed? What did those students die for? What did Remus and Sirius die for? What did he die and come back for? Their Wizarding population is reeling from having been cut into less than half; meanwhile another fanatic madman recruits muggleborn survivors to kill the rest. What have they really achieved?
After a night of typical teen revelry, Harry wakes up with a hangover and a choice. Maybe he would've protested if his head wasn't killing him but it's too late now- it's 1974 and he's a pipsqueak again. The Knights of Walpurgis are making waves in the political arena... while in the shadows, a mysterious character that goes by the name Lord Voldemort is seeding revolution.
16/02: Rating has officially changed to Explicit, for the author to depict certain plot points starting in Chapter Fifteen. These scenes will be indicated in notes.
