    Summary

    Latin; a dead language with no practical applications except perhaps the deciphering of old texts and as a particularly quaint party trick.

    Thankfully, as Harry finds out, Latin is not as dead as he was first taught when he decided to learn the language. It wouldn't have mattered anyway, of course; he loved Latin, and would have been proud to know it even had it been as useless as it was pretty. But in the world of Wizards, the world of Magic, Harry realizes his rare talent with words is particularly valuable, and allows him to use magic that no one's ever heard of, that no one's ever seen. But as time goes on, and he becomes more and more entangled in the webs spun by those around him, he starts to realize just how deep the magical rabbit hole goes and how dangerous power like his can be.

    All Harry had ever wanted was for the world to make sense.

There's nothing accidental about it! As he grows and his understanding of Magic continues to deepen and expand, what paths will open up before him? Perhaps one that's never been walked before?

    Summary

    On Samhain night of 1981, the Potter Cottage was attacked by the Dark Lord Voldemort. Charlus and Dorea Potter died protecting their grandchildren, who seemed to have miraculously survived, leaving a young Henry James Potter with a lightning shaped scar on his forehead. Unnoticed by the adults, little Halley Lily Potter was also marked, hers right above her heart in the form of the rune ᛦ (Norse/Younger Futhark for "Yew"). Dumbledore saw the seemingly dark magic on the girl and proceeded to cut her off from Magical Britain, convincing the Potters that she had no magic and would be happier with the Dursleys. The Potters and all of Britain rejoiced at the apparent death of Voldemort, while a little girl's life would soon be turned into a living hell for 7 long years, until one night, when her world changes for the better.

    Summary

    It's been seventy years since Voldemort fell and the war ended, but Harry’s battle never did. Until he clashes with a witch meddling with time in the endless sands of Algeria, and the clocks turn back.

    The die is cast, a new path forged. Old challenges meet new tricks. Someone's going to die, and it won’t be him.

    Sic semper tyrannis, he says, and may the gods help all those who stand in his way, for no one else will.

    Summary

    Ten years of life at the Dursleys have healed Alexandra Potter of any good feelings she might have towards her aunt, uncle and cousin, leaving her friendless and sarcastic about life. On her eleventh birthday, a letter sent by a school of magic may give her a providential escape. Except, of course, things may not be that simple for a girl fan of the Lord of the Rings...

    Summary

    After a relatively peaceful first year at Hogwarts, Victoria’s second year would prove rather more eventful. The mysterious Heir of Slytherin has returned to Hogwarts, and appears to have set their murderous sights on Victoria.

    It will take all of Victoria’s resourcefulness to survive the Heir’s plans—if she isn’t too busy keeping on top of her burgeoning magical talent. Not to mention the growing interest from pure-blood society in the Girl Who Lived, rumoured to be attending the prestigious Malfoy Yule Ball as guest of honour…

    Magically talented, Slytherin fem!Harry. AU world with a canonical tone. No rehash of the stations of canon. No bashing. First hints of age-appropriate politics and romance.

    Summary

    Victoria Potter had always known she was different. No matter how hard her Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia tried to pretend otherwise, she could do things they couldn’t, and see things they wouldn’t.

    It was only when Professor McGonagall of Hogwarts School came to visit that she realised just how different she was. Sorted into Slytherin, in her first year at Hogwarts school she would find true friends, learn magic, and discover the secrets of the Houses of Hogwarts.

    Magically talented, Slytherin fem!Harry. AU world with a canonical tone. No rehash of the stations of canon. No bashing. No kid politicians. No 11-year-old romances.

    Summary

    When Harry finds an injured Snape on his doorstep and must hide him from the Dursleys, he has no idea that this very, very bad day will be the start of something good.

    Harry and Snape are thrown together by annoying relatives, a series of strange dreams, and Voldemort's latest hunt for Harry, but their greatest challenge may well be surviving each other. This will be a long summer unless the two can find a way to work together. A slow-burn enemy-to-mentor story.

    Alternate 6th summer (and part of the school year): post-OotP; ignores HBP and DH. No slash, no romance. NOW COMPLETE!
