    Summary

    On the night Voldemort came to Godric's Hollow, he killed James Potter and cursed Lily's son and vanished into nothing.

    The problem is that James didn't stay dead.

    The Potters survived. All three of them. And that changes everything: the war's end, the world's recovery, and the quiet, accumulating weight of raising a boy who carries something none of them fully understand yet. Voldemort is gone. The mark on James's chest says otherwise.

    A canon-divergent AU beginning October 31, 1981. Slow build. The Peverells matter. So does what Dumbledore didn't say.

    Summary

    The Ministry, through Umbridge, attempts to expose the DA by extracting Harry's memories and viewing them publicly via Pensieve.

    The extraction succeeds, but what appears are not Harry's memories — they belong to an alternate, older version of him operating in a divergent timeline. They cannot be stopped or removed.

    Harry watches alongside the school, the Ministry, and his professors as a version of himself who is more competent, more compromised, and ultimately more alone plays out a war Harry hasn't yet fought.

    Summary

    What if Snape had agreed to become the Head of Slytherin House, not because Dumbledore wanted him to, but because he wanted to save Slytherin? What if he used his cunning to reform the house right under Dumbledore's nose?

    He could save some of the Slytherins from the mistakes he made. He could find the ones who wanted to walk away and help them. And if he created in them a house loyalty deeper than their loyalty to Voldemort, the ones who wouldn’t walk away might be able to save each other in the end. The first step was to keep them from becoming willing slaves while here at Hogwarts.

    Severus knew from his own years here that Slytherins were happiest when they were plotting. The problem was that Hogwarts wasn’t structured to give them drama, so they had had to create it. If he could keep them busy with other things, they might learn how to focus their energy. The House Cup had long since lost its allure as it was biased, so he would have to create other challenges for them. After all these bitter years, he had nothing kind left in him, but in the end, the choice was easy. He did it for her. Because it was something she would want him to do if she still lived.
