  1. Summary

    On October 31, 1981, a piece of the Dark Lord Voldemort's soul was ripped away from the whole and found a new home within his mortal enemy, the infant named Harry James Potter. What he never expected was that the child, raised so tenderly by his parents and their closest friends, would be brimming with the one thing he had always scorned - love. Unable to resist its siren call, that tiny sliver of soul found itself slowly healing, and nearly ten years later experienced a very strange rebirth.

    Now a child once more, Tom Riddle sets out to make a new life for himself - one that includes ensuring Harry is healthy, happy, and by his side. Unfortunately, his older self, the broken remains of Lord Voldemort, still lurks in the shadows.

    Summary

    20 years old, unemployed, and at the worst point of his life (and that’s saying a lot), Harry gains unrestricted access to a massive unfinished time turner and decides to use it to travel to 1946, when Voldemort only had two horcruxes and had yet to learn the worst of the dark arts.

    But what he finds isn’t the proud, charismatic Dark-Lord-To-Be, but a neurotic 19-year-old Tom Riddle living quietly in the tiny flat that his retail job barely pays for, isolated and addled by chronic illness.

    Summary

    The Dementor's icy fingers were closing in on his throat. A voice spoke inside his head.
    "Bow to Death, Harry... It might even be painless ... I would not know ... I have never died."
    He would never see Ron and Hermione again... Their faces swam behind his eyes.
    "Expecto... Patronum..."
    A silvery stag burst forth the same moment cold lips came down upon his.
    As Harry Potter's body slumped down the wall of the alleyway, the saviour of the wizarding world was no more.

    When Harry is too late to produce a Patronus in time to keep a Dementor from getting a taste of his soul, the Horcrux within him takes over his body.
    In trying to seal himself more permanently into his new vessel, Lord Voldemort miscalculates and accidentally merges with what is left of Harry Potter.

    Not quite a Saviour, not quite a Dark Lord, the person claiming the name Harry Potter has to deal with pesky teenagers, hormones and headaches related to a soulbond to the unaware Lord Voldemort, who still wants him dead. Now if he could only convince his not-quite counterpart that their goals aren't that different without him being locked up once he reveals that he's a Horcrux, that would be great.

    Summary

    Summer after the traumatic end of the Triwizard Tournament, instead of Harry Potter getting visions of the latest evil plot from the Dark Lord, it is Voldemort who gets visions of The-Boy-Who-Lived’s childhood.

    And they’re not pleasant.


    When Newt accepted to become one of Harry Potter's secret guard as a favor to Albus Dumbledore, he hadn't anticipated being faced with a choice concerning the welfare and safety of a child: obey Albus Dumbledore's orders or stay at Voldemort's side to protect Harry.

    Though difficult, the right choice was clear.

    Summary

    Harry gets hit by a killing curse and instead of dying travels to a different reality where he is the bratty husband of the Minister of Magic Tom Riddle. Harry realizes that his husband actually hates him and can barely tolerate his scandalous and petty behaviour and married him only for political connections with the Potter family. That's all good since he doesn't like Riddle either. Tom, on the other hand, is confused by his pureblood husband's new and strange behaviour.
