    Summary

    "Ignore the dementor; really, it's fine. There are no monsters here. It's just me…Harry." When things go very wrong before his fifth year, Harry Potter tries to pretend everything is normal…while also taking care of his Harry-suit so that it stays healthy and alive and learning to reign in his new powers, yeah everything is definitely normal.

    Summary

    Harry Potter had a plan...it wasn't a very good plan, but at least it was simple.

    Step 1: Don't die from the insanely difficult ritual
    Step 2: Cause as much chaos to the timeline as possible before getting killed and/or arrested

    As it goes, it was really simple...until it became clear he wasn't traveling back in time alone. Now the whole plan has to change.

    Step 1: Don't die from the ritual
    Step 2: Kill off current Dark Lord
    Step 3: Establish following to become new Dark Lord
    Step 4: Overthrow Ministry
    Step 5: Cause as much chaos to the timeline as possible
    Step 6: Keep boyfriend alive and not mad at him

    It was a work in progress, but plans hadn't worked out well for Harry in the past regardless. Oh well, it's not like he could make things worse...

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Incredible; MoD Harry isn’t stupidly OP, just reasonably OP; necromancer Percy; it was Xeno all along; inferius hairless cat eats rat!Pettigrew; would like more epilogue/resolution but satisfied with ending (but, like, if there’s a sequel of rebuilding the ministry I’d read it even if it’s all worldbuilding and political shenanigans and no magic spellcasting battles)

    Summary

    Peter loves his friends. Which is why he had to kill them. And now, he's doing- well. Alright. Things didn't turn out exactly as he'd anticipated, but he's making it work. Living his life. As a rat. Mostly trying not to think about things.

    Fine. Things could be better.

    But he hadn't thought they'd get worse- which is exactly what happens when, three years after James died, he's come back. And for some godforsaken reason, he's decided to make that Peter's problem. (Okay, okay- Peter gets it. He did kill him.) Peter is sure that James is going to turn him in, ruin his life the same as Peter had ruined the Marauders.

    But this is James. And he doesn't do any of that.

    What was Peter expecting, really?

    (Features: A lot of fighting, a lot of forgiveness, and a splash of necromancy. Alright, you got me- rather a lot of necromancy. But come on- we can't just have the ghost of Christmas James show up. Haven't you seen 'A Muppet's Christmas Carol'? There needs to be at least two more ghosts.)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Haven’t read yet but marked for later b/c this author had surprisingly interesting Peter in the story where blood magic clones of the marauders (and a few other people) show up while Sirius is running around in Harry’s third year

    Summary

    Little Whinging, Surrey is a place where individuality goes to die. Row after row of identical houses line the streets with pristine, white picket fences and perfectly pruned hedges and house perfectly normal families. Those who live on Privet Drive are no exception to this.

    But there is one little boy who does not fit into that mould.

    Little Hari Potter, who has befriended snakes and knows their ways, hears his neighbors whispering of things he wanted them to notice and says, “Aunt Petunia, did you hear? Mrs. Number Six thinks we’re too poor to afford clothes for two children. I heard her talking about asking the neighbors for donations for us. Isn’t that nice of her? I know that I’m a huge burden on you all, so I’m glad that someone is stepping up to help out.”

    And that simply will not do. The Dursleys care more for their reputation than anything else, and so things slowly but surely begin to change as a result.

    The Hari Potter who arrives at Hogwarts could never sort anywhere but Slytherin.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Pre-Hogwarts through year 1, with multiple snake familiars, one kneazle familiar, one magic parasite, and a progression from canon!Dursleys to almost a family; reread if series continues
