    Summary

    There is a picture in one of the books of a worn young man, heavily scarred with gentle eyes. Remus Lupin, he is identified as. The man who was watching Charles, and presumably Harry. The man who died defending them. Harry traces his fingertips over the man’s face and wonders.

    And then he stops, and reels all those thoughts into a tangled knot and tucks it away.

    They didn’t want him; that’s fine. He doesn’t want them either.

    Alternatively; Harry James Evans is Sorted Slytherin, desperate to stay hidden from the family that gave him up so many years ago. Severus Snape owes debts to a child presumed dead and the child's tormented godfather; and now he has a cunning, paranoid snake to charm all without tipping anyone else off to the boy's true identity.

    Summary

    Reeling from his ordeal in the graveyard, Harry Potter is left anxious and isolated with the Dursleys. A mysterious letter and some uninvited guests cause him to rethink his plans for the summer - particularly the part about staying at Privet Drive. Join Harry as he takes on corrupt Ministries, finds love, inspires his friends, and learns magic at the side of his greatest mentor, Albus Dumbledore.

    5th year canon divergence, no bashing. Meant to replace books 5-7: mostly follows canon lore as outlined in those books but with significant deviations from the plot itself, including character development of the main cast post-Goblet of Fire. Explores what might have happened if Harry was given the help and support he needed, while avoiding the standard !Indy tropes.

    Summary

    The war is over - or it should be. Harry is a war hero, is a decorated Auror, is a mostly-functioning adult. He attends birthday parties, other people's weddings, Christmases where no one mentions the seats left empty. He lives a step outside his own life, but he’s fine. He is.

    Albus Dumbledore is a respected Hogwarts professor, is the most powerful wizard of his generation, is a recluse with a broken heart. His world is collapsing from under his feet as the man he once loved pitches wizard-kind against itself. The war hasn't started yet, but it soon will.

    An escaped criminal and an ancient spell bring their lives crashing together.
