Summary
(I am the one who says 'fuck you') - Benjamin Garcia, 'Ode to the Corpse Flower'.
Petunia drips magic the way she drips anger. Sparingly. Subtly. Nothing overt or obnoxious. Nothing that attracts the stares of other children or the suspicion of adults. Just things that help her. Her dolls line back up after the football Lily was kicking about ruins their perfect symmetry. Her bed makes itself while she brushes her teeth meticulously. Tea that is slightly too hot or too cold settles to the perfect temperature. Magic maintains the realm of order she has built around herself.
(A witch!Petunia and muggle!Lily AU, covering the Marauders' years at Hogwarts and the First Wizarding War).

Summary
Up at the teacher’s table, professor Quirrell was talking to a teacher with dirty red hair hanging around her sickly pale face like a curtain. Looking past Quirrell, two poison-green eyes, devoid of any warmth or empathy, found Harry’s own brown ones, and he felt a sharp pain on his scar.
“Who’s that teacher talking to professor Quirrell?”
“Oh, you know professor Quirrell already do you? No wonder he’s looking so nervous, that’s professor Evans, the potions mistress. Don’t get on her bad side, the old hag hates students.“
Harry looked again, but the teacher was no longer looking at him. Still, Harry could not escape the nagging feeling, which he had gotten just from a glimpse of her eyes and the cruel twist of her lips, that professor Evans did not like him very much.

Summary
What if Voldemort had chosen the pureblood boy, not the halfblood, as his opponent? This Neville would have had graves to visit, instead of a hospital. He’d still have grown up in his grandmother’s clutches, tut-tutted at, dropped out windows absentmindedly, left to bounce on paving stones.
Let’s tell this story: Alice Longbottom, who was the better at hexing, told Frank to take Neville and run.

Summary
"Stannis Baratheon will break the kingdom before he ever rules it."
When Robert dies of wounds sustained on the Trident, it falls to his younger brother to put the kingdom together. Stannis is not the man his brother was. He commands fear and respect, but not love, and even as he grips the kingdom it seems to come apart in his hands.
Lyanna Stark did not die in Dorne. But a part of her, the silly romantic part, did die, and now she must find what her place in the world is to be.

Summary
Evelyn Baker Lang and Christopher Mulready's names became irrevocably linked in history books when they were elevated to the U.S. Supreme Court simultaneously, but the Bartlet Administration's "swap-a-dee-doo" was predated by several years of friendly rivalry and mutual respect between the two jurists. These ten ficlets — inspired very, very loosely by the Bill of Rights — follow the lives of both future Justices in the years leading up to their confirmations to the highest court in the land.

Summary
Tom Riddle was sorted into Gryffindor. There is nothing to fear.
(If oneshots and multishots aren't your thing, you can probably skip ahead to Hermione Granger and the Silent Country, which, by accident, has a pretty good recap of what you need to know to hit the ground running in that story.)
