    Summary

    The Deities have a funny way of apologizing, Harry decides. They don’t offer him a choice so much as they force one. Not as the Boy Who Lived, but as the grandson who never was.

    Two years after the war, he’s tired, haunted by ghosts, estranged from friends, and uncertain what peace is supposed to feel like. When the Deities intervene, it’s not mercy that sends him back, but purpose.

    The morning after the war’s anniversary, Harry wakes in 1977 with his grandparents alive, his father still a student, and Voldemort on the rise all over again. Posing as a distant cousin, he becomes part of the family he never knew.

    But as Harry rebuilds what history took from him, his father begins dreaming of a future filled with war and loss.

    And for the first time, the past and future Potters are fighting the same battle, to make sure the story doesn’t end the same way twice.

    Summary

    Harry Potter died at the Battle of Hogwarts.
    He defeated Voldemort. He saved the wizarding world. He fulfilled the prophecy.
    Then he learned the truth: his entire life had been shaped around one purpose—to become a weapon, defeat Voldemort, and die.
    Harry refuses.
    Death gives him a second chance.
    He wakes at eleven, on the morning of Dudley’s birthday, with every memory of his first life intact. The war. The deaths. The Horcruxes. Dumbledore’s plans. The Deathly Hallows. Everything.
    This time, Harry won’t be anyone’s pawn.
    He chooses Slytherin, determined to escape Dumbledore’s influence, while keeping Ron and Hermione by his side and giving Draco Malfoy a chance to become his friend.
    Harry knows Hogwarts is broken. He knows the wizarding world must change.
    He also knows how to destroy every Horcrux.
    But instead of simply killing Voldemort, Harry makes an impossible choice: bring Tom Riddle back whole and give him a second chance.
    With the Master of Death’s power, Harry will rewrite the future, protect the people he loves, and finally choose his own destiny.
    This time, Harry Potter has no intention of dying for someone else’s greater good.

    Summary

    Harry has a plan.
    1. Destroy the Horcruxes.
    2. Save everyone who died the first time.
    3. Avoid making the same mistakes.
    4. Absolutely do not tell anyone he's from the future.

    It's a solid plan.

    The problem is that the future keeps introducing variables Harry has absolutely no memory of.

    Some of them are helpful.

    Most of them are terrifying.

    Featuring: one increasingly confused Sirius Black, a Harry who keeps derailing canon, adults who are actually competent, and entirely too many things that should not exist.

    Summary

    Harry Potter has died before.

    Being the Master of Death, he has discovered, does not make him immortal. It simply makes death considerably less permanent.

    This time, he opens his eyes as Orion Cygnus Black: eldest son of Orion and Walburga Black, Sirius Black's twin brother by eleven extremely important minutes, and Regulus Black's older brother. He remembers another life. Another Hogwarts. Another war. He remembers exactly what became of the people now growing up around him.

    But memory is not prophecy, and Orion refuses to treat it like one.

    So he does what Harry Potter has always done best: he interferes.

    Summary

    Harry had only just begun to put his life back together after the war and look towards the future with hope.

    Waking up in the familiar darkness of the cramped cupboard under the stairs left him feeling more than a little cheated and completely confused. Yet that unpleasant surprise seemed to hold new possibilities as well. After all, not everything in his life had gone the way it was meant to.

    There was also someone he truly wanted to get to know better this time.

    * * *

    Percy lived an ordinary life, caught between his great ambitions, life in an overcrowded family, and people he could never quite fit in with. He had to stand out. He had to become someone exceptional.

    Maybe. One day. For someone.

    He had a plan for the future. For the Ministry. For Britain. For himself. For everything that needed fixing. It was a good plan. It was going to fall apart very soon.
