  • A Dunderhead Walks into a Bar (he meets a hero there)

    A HP time-travel fix-it from Snape's PoV. Harry Potter walks into a wizarding school looking bored, as if he has better places to be. Severus falls for a wizard in a muggle bar with green eyes who doesn't care what anyone thinks of him. Severus plans to ignore both, but can't follow through. Meanwhile, wizarding Britain waits for the hero they think will save them all.

  • A Public–Private Partnership

    Mycroft prided himself on his intelligence and his control, and right now he knew more than both British ministers, and had control over two Harry Potters. Parallel universe travel, canon divergence, MoD!Harry raises himself (with a twist).

  • Beware the Jabberwock

    King Galbatorix laughed, eyes twinkling much like Dumbledore's had. "Yes, Harry. Dragon riders. Come, let me show you this world. I'm sure there is a place for you here." Harry had grown up in a cupboard. He'd been thrown headfirst into a world of magic, been expected to save them all. Something hungry inside him trembled at the idea of having somewhere he'd belong.

  • The Boyfriend

    "I like the trees here," Harry said. "They keep my wrackspurts away." It was twilight, and he wasn't wearing any shoes. "You can stay at my place," Charlie said. This is a truly wholesome fic, inspired by FalconLux's "The Boyfriend," hctiB-notsoB's "I See The Moon," and The Carnivorous Muffin's "Painting Red Madonnas." MoD!Harry, Neurodivergence.

  • Harry Potter and the Semantics of Divinity

    Harry Potter's destiny was chosen for him before he could talk. When Lily begged Death to spare her son, Death took his master and raised him with the help of a snake and an angel. Newly eleven and with no social skills, our hero is up for an adventure in self-discovery.

  • Another Life, Another Love, Another—oh, whatever

    Izzy Swan, Master of Death, walks into Carlisle's office asking him to be her shrink. Edward Cullen, master of melodrama, asks his father for advice. A humorous odd love story that follows canon from a dad's point of view, now featuring zero angst and a healthy Edward/Bella. MOD!Harry!Bella AU. Wholesome fix it.

  • Not As Clever As He Thinks

    Severus Snape: youngest British potions Master in over a century, turning out only the best students from his NEWT classes. Enter Harry Potter, about to turn his world upside down. A time travel fix-it told from the perspective of a man who hasn't the foggiest what is going on. MOD!Harry. HPSS Slash.

  • If I Should Have a Daughter

    Rose Potter thought a lot about what she'd name her first daughter, but the night before the wedding, any future children were torn from her cold, cold hands. When the venom stripped the magic from her, she could no longer be a witch. Rosalie Hale, Carlisle named her. Bare as a newborn, it took a long time to find out who she was underneath.

  • Sown in Weakness, Raised in Power

    Tom went into the Potter home to kill an infant—he woke up face to face with a Dementor. Now trapped in Harry Potter's life, he's racing against Albus' suspicions and his other self's attempts at a coup. The UK is only big enough for one of them to rule, but Dark Lords don't settle for second place. Voldemort's gotten out of worse situations than a spotty memory and missing wand.

  • Commodus Aurelius Fudge

    The Fudge family took out an ad in the Daily Prophet for the announcement, as was proper for a family of means: Callidora and Cornelius Fudge welcome their son and heir to the family. An OC attends Hogwarts alongside Nymphadora Tonks and shakes up the Ministry of Magic's political games. Based on a true story.

  • Peter Pettigrew and the Deathly Hallows

    A Peter reincarnated as Harry story: Peter's mam always said he'd been born under a lucky star, but none of the stars' tales ever struck him as being particularly lucky. No, it was better to be a nonentity. Someone relegated to the forgotten parts of the history books. Someone small and inconspicuous, crouching in the corner like a rat. (In the cupboard three Hallows sat, waiting.)

  • A Dunderhead Walks into a Bar (he meets a hero there)

    Severus planned to ignore Harry Potter to the best of his abilities, but he's always been much better at making plans than following them. Snape is determined to get to the bottom of Potter's mysteries, and if Harry isn't going to be the hero, Severus will step up and get it done. A Time travel MoD!Harry story from the PoV of a man who hasn't the foggiest idea what's going on.

  • The Voice of Fate (or the Susurration of the Dishwasher)

    Harry wakes up post Battle of Hogwarts to learn his entire life has been a game. Working with Harry's limited 90s-era video game knowledge, there are no lists of stats or easy level-ups. Instead, this is a dark and realistic take of what happens when a man learns that 'saving' and 'loading' result in a world where his actions often don't have consequences. Gamer!Harry, MoD!Harry.

  • Untitled Severus time travel AKA The Weirdest Severitus Ever

    Severus travels back in time, and finds himself in the body of Harry Potter. Weirdness ensues. Not so much 'Severitus with a twist' as 'with a good shanking in the gut'. Better summary and title pending. A plot bunny I'm posting—we'll see where things go. Yet unbetad.

  • Minds Transitioning Out of Time

    It was neither dark, nor stormy, nor properly night. That wasn't to say the weather wasn't shite, it just was failing to mark what should have been a truly momentous occasion. Severus opened his eyes with the distinct, unnerving feeling that someone was watching him. MoD!Harry travels into the past, reincarnating as Snape. Harry raises himself, the Hallows meddle, madness ensues.

  • Growing into herself (Twelve snapshots of Lily)

    Currently a one-shot character study of Lily Evans who becomes Lily Potter, but never really got the chance to grow up. Here are snapshots of twelve events that shaped who she was, and who she will become. This will (eventually) turn into a Lily/Severus time-travel fix-it.

  • International Wizarding School Championship Submissions

    Being heir to a great house like the Blacks is a birthright, and Regulus is happy being the second son. If only it weren't for the way Sirius and Mother were always arguing, his life would have turned out just fine. Instead, he's forced to be everything he wasn't ready for. Slytherin will teach him about being a Black, but in the end Kreacher taught him what matters most.
