Harriet Potter and the Witch in Westeros by Anonymous

Summary
There were some days that Harriet really despised being Harriet Potter.
She really did have the worst luck.
Fresh from defeating Voldemort and finally uncovering the full extent of her inheritance, Harriet moves into Black Castle, the ancestral seat of House Black and what would have been a really convenient place to hide out in during the war had Dumbledore or literally anyone else thought to inform her of its existence. Well, she has it now and what child who lived in a cupboard under the stairs until they were eleven wouldn't move into a castle if given the chance.
But then, Potter luck strikes again, and she finds herself, her castle, and her house elves transported to the northernmost Kingdom of Westeros, where she may or may not become pivotal in altering the outcome of the Game of Thrones and the 'other' threat massing in the True North. -

Summary
The Maesters talk of winds from Valyria blowing over, the hot ash from the still raging fires imprisoned in the downpour and clouds, an anger of a dead civilisation carrying rot in the rain. Alerie Targaryen is born in this strange summer storm. She dreams of another as a child. One where a man with no nose kills her in a forest, where she dies alone surrounded by ghosts.
It doesn't make much sense to the young Targaryen Princess, but she thinks it might if she could find the right twig.
Or; There's a reason why rumours spread of some Hightowers having dabbled in alchemy and necromancy.

Summary
Petunia wasn't the smart one. Or the pretty one. Or the magical one. But she was cunning, resourceful, and she knew what she wanted from life... and she got it.
So when her nephew turns up on her doorstep one cold November morning, she sees it as the opportunity that it is.
---
This was an odd little earworm of a plot bunny that wouldn't leave me alone. I'm much more inclined to shorter works, so it's a bit of a patchwork story.
Note on the tags. Petunia is... Petunia. She is not really 'Nice' or 'Good' but she's not 'Mean' or 'Evil' either. She's a selfish, self-centered woman with a brittle sense of self-esteem and a drive to be recognized as successful in her own right. I tagged it 'Good' because that was the closest I could get to 'not the horrible person from the book, but not really even close to a Molly'.
Also: I will not be tagging every single person who appears in the fic, only those with reoccurring roles. This is not a bashing fic and I've done as best as possible to give rational(ish) 'good intentions' explanations for the canon shenanigans.

Grab fate by its scrawny neck (and twist) by Anonymous

Summary
Draconis Malfoy dies at the age of 30 in what the press would call "a prison riot". Over 10 year after his sentence had been served. Over 5 years after his parents passed away in their cells due to "poor health" that he had known to be poison.
He thought he had nothing to lose, really. At least he could see his beloved family again.
But then he realized he was just a character in someone else's story. A dancing clown just there to make the protagonist and his friends look better in comparison.
A cautionary tale with no substance.
"Save him;" the voices pleaded. "Save yourself."
Armed with his new knowledge and tons of spite for a world predetermined to see him fall, Draco finds himself back in his third year.
Ready to save those he thinks deserve a second chance just like himself.

Summary
Princess dies at fourteen.
A lonely boy from a world without magic, he wakes up as Draco Malfoy, armed with nothing but the memories of every Harry Potter book he ever read.
His first attempt to change the story ends the same way his first life did.
Dead.
Given another chance, Princess is sent back to the summer before third year, determined to make this his last life. This time, Draco Malfoy will not become a bully, a Death Eater, or another casualty of Voldemort's war. He'll save Sirius Black. Expose Peter Pettigrew. Protect Remus Lupin. Keep Harry Potter alive. Maybe even become someone Harry could one day call a friend.
Changing a story is one thing.
Surviving it is another.
Or- A fic where Draco, with book knowledge and future insight, goes back to relive third year (after a brief stop at Malfoy Manor in the seventh book), navigating everything differently.
