    Summary

    Many things are different and many are the same as Harry begins his fifth year at Hogwarts.

    Here, living with Dursleys that aren't just neglectful but outright abusive made Harry unable to withstand more than a few weeks of Trelawney's "predictions" back in his third year. Instead, he took Ancient Runes, and uncovered that he had a prodigious knack for runic magic, which opened the door to the darkest of rituals and the magic of mind and soul. A year later, Harry uncovered something horrible within himself - a parasite.

    So, when Voldemort sends him dreams of corridors and doors, Harry sends him pieces of hell in return.

    Summary

    “I may not know Muggle composers, but I do know Muggle philosophers: ‘Man is by nature a political animal’,” Harry hissed softly. “But, I have no interest in being an animal. I want to be a monster, and I think you know the game far better than the way you’re playing.”

    Riddle tilted his head, and a terrifying smile crossed his face. “Mr. Potter, you are not what I expected."

    And so Harry said, “Good. Do I have your attention, Mr. Riddle?”
