Summary
In a meting to discuss the safety of the school in the wake of Sirius Black´s escape, an auror´s sneakoscope detects tampering with the Sorting Hat. All new students, as well as those sorted the last two years, need to be re-sorted to see if their housing was a product of the compulsion spell found in the Sorting Hat.
For Harry and Hermione, this might mean they might get the second chance they thought they would not get, both at feeling as they belong and getting the guidance and help they expected when they entered the magical world.
No one expects the Gryffindor Golden Boy, the Boy-Who-Lived, to be placed anywhere other than with the lions, so why is his re-sorting taking so long? As he sits and waits for the annoyingly long sorting ceremony to end, Severus Snape starts to wonder if he has missed something about the Potter brat, for surely there is nothing not-Gryffindor about him.
And more importantly, how was such a powerful magical object as the Sorting Hat tampered with? And why?

Summary
The boy's breathing had begun to slow. Finally. Tom's lips twitched and his eyes narrowed maliciously as he crept forward, allowing the charms wrapped around him to dissipate. Anticipation bubbled in his stomach as he imagined fear and shock in those green eyes.
Eyes that snapped open the instant Tom's hand touched the frame of the hospital bed.
Eyes that burned gold.
OR...
Harry's an enigma and Tom? Well, Tom has always enjoyed a good riddle.

Summary
There were very few things in Harry Potter's life that he was certain of. There was one absolute certainty though; he'd felt it in his bones for as long as he could remember. He, Harry Potter, was dead. The living people around him might not believe, but the dead sure did. Oh well, it doesn't impact his life much. Besides, it's nice to get help with his schoolwork from his parents.

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.

Summary
Tom Riddle isn’t usually intrigued by his classmates. Not unless they have valuable skills or exploitable weaknesses.
Harrison Evans is the exception to that.
(Or: A rather oblivious Tom Riddle’s borderline-obsessive curiosity and impending sexuality crisis over Slytherin house’s newest fifth year)

Rise of the Good Bad Dark Lord (Revamped) by Bokbok3
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
09 Mar 2025
Tags
Summary
When Lord Voldemort cast the Killing Curse on Lily Potter, he expected victory. Instead, he awoke inside a dark cupboard, staring at a crying child on a small bed. Green eyes met his own. Voldemort stilled. Harry Potter.
But something was… different. He was different. No longer the Dark Lord, but a mere fragment of a soul—a shadow bound to the boy who was destined to be his downfall. And yet, as time passed, as he observed, taught, and guided the child, something unthinkable happened. Affection. Pride. A fierce, undeniable urge to protect, to nurture.
Then, the truth struck like lightning. He was not the true Voldemort. The original still lurked out there, waiting, hunting… for his boy.
No.
Tom would not allow it. He would rise again—as a Dark Lord, or as something far more dangerous.
For the first time in his existence, Lord Voldemort had something he placed above himself. And he would burn the world itself before letting anyone take Harry from him.
In the process of revamping (12/56)
