Summary
Harry Potter was never meant to be ordinary - but he was never meant to be this, either.
Every child in the wizarding world knows about Harry Potter. The-boy-who-lived, the Lights symbol of hope and power, their perfect little saviour. Every child apart from Harry Potter. Harry Potter only knows that the shadows are his true family and that listening to them is what he wants to do.

Summary
A short story of what could have been, starting from the final battle in the Battle of Hogwarts.
What if Harry, as the Master of Death, had the power, however briefly, to restore those that had been lost, including Tom Riddle? What if he had to lose himself to do so? Would he make that ultimate sacrifice?
If he did, what would that mean for the Wizarding World?
What would it mean for his soulmate whom he had never told, who didn't realise what Harry really meant to him until he said good bye?

Summary
There was a prophecy that came first. It was forgotten by many but has guided the hands of the manipulator -
Born of the line of the King,
the Great Lord shall walk among you.
He who is the Immortal Master of Death.
And he shall be joined by two
who shall stand side by side in Magic.
Light and Dark,
Balance made flesh,
in the Power of Three.
False Lords will rise and fall,
bringing change and destruction to the People
until the Light Lord and the Dark Lord
stand alongside the Great Lord
and the Three rise as One once again.
Beware the false lords and the destruction they bring.
Look for the coming of the Great Lord
in the line of the King.Once known, can the Master of Death fulfil his true destiny?

"You went yourself?"
"I did."
"You had no authority—"
"No."
"I had a promise."
"I expected James Potter's son."
"I found Lily Evans' child."
"He apologised because I asked him if he was hungry." Even Fawkes ceased singing.
"He apologised," Severus repeated, "for being hungry."
Dumbledore's shoulders seemed to sag. "Severus..."
"No." Years of bitterness sat behind that single word.
"I buried Lily because I failed her once." His black eyes never left Dumbledore's.
"I will not fail her son." Outside, thunder rolled across the Scottish Highlands. Neither man noticed.
Far below the castle...
Ancient magic stirred.
Deep beneath forgotten stone...
Something that had slept for nearly a thousand years recognised a name.
Potter. And, for the first time in a very long while...
The House waited.

What if the twinkling kind eyes weren't so kind and inocent?
What if a motherly love is hiding painful truths and way too many lies?
What happens when someone you considered family for years betrayed you the worst?
What happens when war is over and Harry finds himself in front of Lady magic?

“If he is dead, why does Wormtail still appear on this map?”
The Marauder's Map is never wrong.
Which meant when Sirius used it to prove his innocence and accuse Peter, he was speaking the truth.

Summary
[Re-write and expansion of my other fic “If I’m Being Honest”]
The war is over. Voldemort is dead. Hogwarts is rebuilding. The future stretches out before Harry Potter exactly as everyone always assumed it would.
Auror. Hero. Boyfriend / Future Husband.
A life already planned before he's had the chance to decide if he wants it.
As Harry struggles to adjust to a world no longer defined by survival, he finds himself changing in ways even he doesn't fully understand. New interests. New ambitions. New dreams that have nothing to do with defeating Dark Lords.
And while Ginny Weasley loves him fiercely, Harry begins to realize that love alone cannot bridge the growing distance between who he was and who he is becoming.
A story about healing, grief, growing apart, and discovering that sometimes the bravest thing a person can do is choose their own future.

Summary
Summoned across time by a botched blood ritual, a battle-hardened, morally grey Harry Potter finds himself stranded in 1975, long before the First Wizarding War truly ignites. Stripped of his past but armed with a lifetime of lethal combat experience and the dark magic he cultivated to survive, Harry refuses to be a pawn for Albus Dumbledore or the rising Dark Lord.
Instead, he decides to seize the board.
Infiltrating the very heart of the pureblood elite, Harry sets his sights on the Noble and Most Ancient House of Black. But as the lines between manipulation and genuine, consuming passion begin to blur, Harry realizes that breaking the timeline might be the easy part. Controlling the three most dangerous witches of their generation, while the wizarding world spirals toward war, will require absolute dominance. Marauder-era AU featuring a Metamorphmagus, Slytherin Harry, and a complex polyamorous dynamic with the Black sisters.
Rated M to be on the safe side - Contains adult themes
