Harry Potter and the Unseen Influence by TheQuietImperius
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
06 Aug 2026
Summary
During his fifth year, Harry Potter discovers he possesses an extraordinary and terrifying ability: his voice carries compulsive power. When he speaks with intent, people obey, completely, naturally, without awareness that they are being influenced. The compulsion is seamless, leaving targets with rationalized memories of having acted of their own free will.
The power has no known limits. Every test has confirmed the same conclusion: anyone will do anything he tells them to.
The story follows Harry as he grapples, with decreasing resistance, with what this power means, what it makes him, and how to use it both to satisfy increasingly complex personal desires and to end the war with Voldemort before more people he loves are killed.

Summary
Draco didn’t even think. He raised his mother’s wand, directed it at his father, and with more conviction than he had ever felt in his entire life he uttered the two words that would keep his father from taking this moment away from him. A burst of green light struck Lucius Malfoy right between his shoulder blades and he fell forward onto the rubble strewn floor. The hall fell into silence again as Draco stared into two brilliant green eyes that wore a look of utmost disbelief.
~*~
Six years later Draco Malfoy stands staring at Harry Potter across their shared sitting room with his arms crossed. "Don't thank me Potter, I'd have never found a job if I let my father kill you. Let's just get through this year without killing each other.""This year? Are you planning an early retirement? Or do you frequently only stay at a job for one year?" Potter said with an eyebrow raised.
"This is going to be a very long year." Neville said from the settee between them.

Summary
After all the possessed-by-evil issues in the 1990s, Sorting Hat-based interviews are standard procedure when hiring Hogwarts staff. Professor Draco Malfoy gets a little too dependent on exploring possibilities via the Hat, which complicates his relationship with his new coworker, Harry Potter.
Inconvenient, because they've both just been snared in a seventeenth-century sex curse.

Summary
In September of 1971, Severus Snape finds a forgotten portrait of the Slytherin family in a dark corner of the Slytherin Common Room. At the time, he has no idea that talking portrait will affect the rest of his life.
On 31st July 1995, Harry Potter disappears from Little Whinging a few minutes after midnight. The means of his departure are unfathomable, and the Order's only relief in their concern is the fact that Voldemort was not responsible.
The rest of Wizarding Britain is too busy tearing down their Wizarding Savior via the press to be much concerned, at least until certain Slytherin allies decide that enough is fucking well enough.
