Harry Potter and the Realistic Events of the Philosopher's Stone (revisited) by ReverendKilljoy for WaskeHD

Summary
Murder—murder most vile—in Godric's Hollow, Somerset. When James Potter and his family are marked for death by the dark wizard Lord Voldemort, one would think that all is lost. But instead, there is a boy, the Boy Who Lived.
This is a rather darker re-imagining of the introduction to Harry's story, told with alternate points of view and different illustrative examples from canon.
Please do comment and let me know what you think of this effort!

Harry Potter and the Realistic Events of the Chamber of Secrets (revisited) by ReverendKilljoy
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

Summary
This is a reimagining of "Chamber of Secrets"—faithful to the bones of J.K.R.’s original plot but rewritten with deeper psychological insight, sharper emotional realism, and a keener awareness of trauma, isolation, and identity. This project continues where Philosopher’s Stone (Revisited) left off, following Harry through his second year at Hogwarts, where the danger is subtler, the magic stranger, and the cracks in the world—and in Harry himself—have begun to show.
Why revisit this book? "Chamber of Secrets" is often treated as a transitional novel: darker than the first, but still just a step toward the grander narrative. But at its heart, it’s a ghost story. A diary. A horror. And it’s the year Harry begins to realise that being “the Boy Who Lived” doesn’t protect him from being unseen, unheard, or unwell. This version leans into that. Into what it feels like to be a child waiting for rescue that may never come.
If you’re new here, don’t expect a wholesale reinvention of canon—this is still the story of Harry Potter. But it’s a version where emotions linger longer, cruelty cuts deeper, and magic doesn’t always fix what’s broken.

Interlude- Scenes from the Muggle-born by ReverendKilljoy
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

Summary
While written as an interlude for another work of Harry Potter fiction, this really stands alone, and could fit with just about any canon-compliant Harry Potter Hogwarts story. I was thinking about what the experience of Hogwarts is like for those raised outside the wizarding culture, and these vignettes came to mind. Enjoy.
