Summary
(n.)
The place where one’s strength is drawn from; where one feels at home; the place where you are your most authentic self.
Tom thought the man who adopted him was rather odd, even by his standards.
He talked in an American accent, knew more about the Political state of Britain than any other adult he's ever met, yet he claimed to have only lived in Spain his entire life. He often spoke downright weird phrases too, ones the five-year-old was pretty sure wasn't used in any country, though they sounded like inside jokes no one else knew the context to. But he was rich, and willing to take Tom away from here, so he'd take what he could get.
Phoenix never thought he'd wake up in the body of a rich, handsome man in a book series he hasn't even touched since High School. Much less 7 years before WW2 started and Grindelwald threw a tantrum about losing his boyfriend, but hey, who was he to complain? He was set for life now.
That said, he wasn't exactly fond of the idea of allowing that absolute train wreck of a plot- er, future to happen....

Summary
17-year-old Tom Riddle wakes up in the middle of London the morning of Voldemort’s defeat. He has no idea what’s going on, or why he’s not in 1944.
He heads to Diagon Alley and sees hundreds of people celebrating in the streets how a “Harry Potter” triumphed - twice - over the greatest Dark Lord their world has ever seen.
Tom needs to find some answers. All paths seem to lead to Harry Potter. It's not long before the two of them run into each other.
***
Featuring hijinks, healing, and (sort of) former enemies with benefits, set against a backdrop of rebuilding Hogwarts in the summer after the war.

Summary
"A second chance,“ Death said.
Harry stopped in front of a bench and turned to look at the being. "A second chance at what?"
"Life."
Harry laughed bitterly. "Because that has worked out so great the first time?"
Death tilted its head. "You've changed," it stated.
"Life does that to you," Harry said and his mind felt clearer than ever, "Or should I say the last seven years. I never really left this place, have I? I lived a life feeling not quite dead and not alive either," he spat.
"I know how you feel," Death said after a moment, grinning.
"Oh, do you," Harry retorted and pierced Death with a look.
The being's smirk widened as it leaned closer.
"Bored."
Years after the war, Harry Potter lives an apathetic life. When Death offers him a second chance he takes it.
Accompanied by the being, Harry travels back to the summer before Sirius dies. Inside his younger body and the memories of an older self, Harry realizes that being connected to Death may have twisted his morals a little more than expected.
Seeking to make up for the boredom of past years, Harry isn't above carving his own space between two sides to even out the playing field.

Summary
Revenge is the misguided attempt to transform shame and pain into pride. Being forsaken and neglected, ignored and forgotten, revenge seems a fairly competent obligation at this point.
Skylar is the boy who lived, that's why he's important. I'm not Skylar.
Going to Hogwarts is part of the plan, waking the basilisk is part of the plan, taking potions, learning spells, being tortured, murdering others, watching people di-I’m going to tell you a story, although it’s a bit long. I’m going to make you listen, because I want you to understand how you made me a monster. I’ll call this story antithesis, and you’re going to learn every single moment where things went wrong. I want you to cry, and beg for me to kill you, and when I’m done with this, you’re going to want to do that to yourself. You’re going to listen, because in the end, you owe me that much. You owe me so much more, but here we are, and this is how it’s going to end. Who knows, maybe this useless battle between you and me and this bloody world, well, maybe we always were fated to kill each other.
