Summary
It's been six years since Remus Lupin, age 25, left England after the death of his father and the slow dissolving of his friendship with the Marauders. A letter from James finds him in Canada at an opportune time, asking him to come home to meet his soon-to-be-born son.
Remus never expected that his time away would give him the perfect resume for teaching at Hogwarts, nor did he expect that his return would spark both conflict and resolution. If only he could get the Potion's Professor to understand how sorry he is for the way things turned out.
“What is the price for your forgiveness?”
“One Thousand Galleons.”

Summary
He could just see the blurry outline of Remus’s shoulders against the dark night sky, the moonless sky. No werewolf with him here tonight, the black night, the night without even stars to relieve the darkness. Just Remus.

Summary
“Just… tell me. Tell me what is going on, Snape.”
What was going on was that Severus Snape had no trouble tracking down one Petunia Evans, now Dursley, to a little town in Surrey where he saw how exactly she was treating her nephew. Which somehow led to last night and Severus knocking on Lupin’s door with a toddler half-asleep in his arms.Series

It was "Witch Weekly", of all people and organizations, the first to notice and comment on The Boy Who Lived’s absence from the ranks of first years at Hogwarts. The magazine went on to elucubrate that the young hero was studying at a foreign school, possibly Beauxbatons or Holzschuhkäse.

The note pinned to his collar read 'Harry J Potter - please accept'. The Dursleys had left him with nothing else but a pillow sack with half a sleeve of McVities biscuits, a mealy apple, and ten pounds.

Summary
(It all starts with Peter Pettigrew dying twice.
First, Peter kills Wormtail (discreetly), and then Sirius kills him (less discreetly).
Losing a friend is never easy, even amidst the ravages of war, but losing the last of your childhood alongside him is far worse.)
War is a complicated, messy thing. The Marauders have their fucked up shit to deal with, but they also have each other, and that counts for a lot.

Summary
J.K. Rowling herself said that “It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.” Choices have power, and any one of them can change your story. Indeed, the choices of those around you can change your story. And that’s an awful lot of choices and an awful lot of different stories.
In this one, Minerva McGonagall makes a different choice, and Remus Lupin and Harry Potter get a shot at happiness.

Summary
That prophecy... yeah that one, well it could have been talking about two wizarding boys, Harry Potter or Neville Longbottom. We know the story when the prophecy refers to Harry Potter, but what if it had meant Neville? What if He Who Must Not Be Named was convinced that it meant Neville? What then... well... this.

Summary
It didn’t matter that Harry fell asleep thinking about a busy Saturday in Diagon Alley, or digging through the attic with his father, Sirius, and Uncle Remus. It didn’t matter that he went to bed with a stomach full of warm food, or that his mother tucked him into bed even though he was fourteen and he didn’t need it, but she still did it because she loved him and he loved her.
None of that mattered; the nightmares still came.

How different would the world of Harry Potter be if James and Lily had lived?
Ships not listed because I'm unsure if there will be deviations from canon in that respect. Characters will be added as they appear.The work itself is largely Gen, focused on family and friendship. However, endgame ships can be found in epilogue tag.Series

Summary
Peter Pettigrew's surprising actions on Halloween of 1981 have given the Order of the Phoenix a brief but much-needed respite - and advantage, if they are brave enough to press it. Voldemort lives, and the prophecy about Harry still stands, but -- for a brief moment in 1981, it feels like anything is possible.
(AU in which Peter remembers he's Gryffindor after all, James and Lily live, and Sirius and Remus resolve their suspicions. War!AU fic, focusing closely on the Marauders.)

Summary
What matters most to Lucius Malfoy is his family, and what matters second is power. He secures both when he decides to aid the Light at the end of the First Wizarding War.
His decision doesn't change the ultimate fate of the Wizarding World, but it creates better lives for his family, and it opens new doors for many others, too.
Most importantly, however, is the impact this new life has on his son, and how it improves his childhood.- Language:
