    Summary

    “This is Mr Riddle, one of our Slytherin prefects. I’m sure he’ll make you feel right at home. Mr Riddle, this is Harrison Peters. He’s just been sorted into Slytherin and will be joining you in sixth year,” Dumbledore announced jovially, though Tom could see that sliver of constant suspicion in his gaze that had never quite faded.
    “Harry,” the boy hurried to correct. “Just Harry.”
    And then he stuck his hand out. How… plebeian, Tom noticed with delight. Walburga would probably faint.

    Summary

    Unsatisfied with his post-war life, Harry decides to get to the root of all of his problems when that root was still working at Borgin and Burkes shop in the late 40s. He’s the Master of Death, damn it, he can do what he wants for once in his life.

    Tom Riddle isn’t particularly happy about working at a small, dingy shop for magical artifacts, no matter how interesting those artifacts are. He’s even less happy when an insufferable stranger sets up the most obnoxious flower shop right across the street.

    What follows would be a romantic comedy, if it weren’t for politics.

    Summary

    “Harry, please,” Death says beseechingly. “You haven’t even heard the full punishment yet.”

    “Oh? There’s more?”

    “Tom Riddle will be in your custody for five years,” Death finishes. “Five years is how long that Fate has deemed you should be punished with the presence of your worst enemy."


    A hundred years after the end of the Second War, Harry Potter, Master of Death, unwittingly helps the last fragment of Lord Voldemort’s soul escape Limbo. Now, bound by Fate to Tom Riddle for the next five years, Harry has to coexist with the man he feared the most.


    Or: Auror M.O.D. Harry and Tom Riddle strike an uneasy truce and solve crimes together, and Harry has to decide if his capacity to save everyone includes everyone, really.

    OR: an excuse for Harry and Tom to be a crime-fighting duo like Sherlock Holmes and John Watson, while also trying not to strangle each other.

    Summary

    "Okay," Harry says gravely, "kid. So. You might not believe me, but." He swallows. "You've been….de-aged."

     

    "De-aged?" Tom asks, perplexed.

     

    "I think so," he goes on rapidly, "I mean, you were, like…" He screws his face up. "Sixty-eight years old, just an hour ago. But now you're seven."

     

    "Sixty-eight?" Tom gasps, and he opens his mouth to scream.
    June 24th, 1995. The night that Lord Voldemort regains his human form, and he and Harry Potter fight to the death, when their wands collide, shared by a beam of gold light.

    And then, Lord Voldemort's volatile, recently-regenerated human form morphs into something else entirely. Into his seven-year-old de-aged self. Now he's young Tom Riddle, fresh out of Wool's Orphanage. The Golden Trio and the Weasleys will learn something new about themselves - and Tom will, too. Can young Tom escape the shadow of his older self? Or will he succumb under it?

    Featuring: fluff, lots of fluff, Tom Riddle being Tom Riddle even at age seven, and Harry Potter being an idiot, per usual. Updates every week/two weeks! <3

    Summary

    Ratio would rather not run the risk of disrupting the routine he and Aventurine had created over time. If he was still going to be following this routine, it was better to pretend nothing had changed.
