Harry Potter and the Legend of the Founders by Leonore4
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
05 Jul 2026
Summary
Harry James Potter has always had a knack for getting into trouble. But when he wakes up with the memories of Salazar Slytherin, it's a bad day even by his standards. Worse still: Nothing anyone says about the founder of Slytherin is true. In reality, it's much, much worse. How is he supposed to tell his friends this? Especially when they're slowly starting to remember too?

Summary
What would you do if you woke up in an 12-year-old's body with adult memories and the knowledge that you're supposed to be a villain?
A 34-year-old mother from 2025 dies and awakens as Petunia Evans in 1971. She knows exactly how this story is supposed to go—Petunia becomes bitter, magic-hating, and crucial to Harry Potter's survival. So she tries to change nothing. Stay invisible. Let events unfold.
Then she gets Sorted into Slytherin.
Now she's mastering magic she's not supposed to have, forming impossible friendships across house lines, and discovering that erasing a child's memories comes with consequences no one warned her about. Her Seer visions are getting darker, her failed Animagus transformation is changing her into something inhuman, and her desperate attempts to preserve the timeline are creating entirely new disasters.
Some knowledge is too dangerous to keep. Some futures are too important to save.Shelves: Harry Potter

The Wizarding Prince of Twilight by Marsflame18
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling, The Lord of the Rings - All Media Types, The Silmarillion and other histories of Middle-Earth - J. R. R. Tolkien
11 Jan 2026
Summary
Harry Potter was many things. He was a powerful wizard, the master of death, a powerful Auror, a problem-solver....sort of😅, and above all he was someone who craved family. He wanted a family that would love him for him and above all would not be FAKE! He had a good life...mostly after all that trash with Voldemort and the war but still he craved a new life where he could be loved and do what he wanted.
He though the whole master of death thing was just a fancy title....yeah it wasn't😬🫣.It just didn't mean what he thought it did which was apparently reincarnation after a long as hell Wizarding life and being reborn into an immortal species! Not only that, he just so happened to be reborn as a character from a book he read as a kid that was on their way to being hated and tortured AGAIN.
Yeah no.
Harry Potter now Maeglin Lomion was not about to deal with a prissy princess, naive cowards, royal drama, psycho Demigods, crazy relatives, bigoted relatives, and FATE!
He's gonna lead his own life this time and no ones gonna stop him!

The moment the Death Curse struck Harry Potter's forehead and carved a scar into the toddler's skin, something else happened.

To Survive All Else - Book I by Angeluscaligo
Fandoms: Celtic Mythology, Discworld - Terry Pratchett, Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling, Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery (Video Game), Harry Potter: Magic Awakened (Video Game)
26 May 2025
Summary
In a life where being smart means not being beaten or starved, Harry Potter turns out to be someone who should never be underestimated - someone who would go to the very edges of morality to preserve his life and to enact a vengeance on those who deserve it. Yet, this isn't his first rodeo - past lives haunt him, though he can not understand them. But one thing is for sure - something is wrong with the world. It is not what is ought to be. And only his past lives seem to realize this.
This work aims to massively expand the canon as it is given in the books, as well as slightly tweaking any canon facts/implications. It is, in essence, a complete re-write of the books, starting with the 2 months leading up to Book 1.
Currently, Act I and Act II have been concluded - Act III is now beginning.

Summary
Harry Potter always thought that life following the war would be worth living. However, six months after the Battle of Hogwarts, Harry finds himself overwhelmed with violent grief and an unwanted PTSD diagnosis. Exhausted, Harry seeks to be the teenager that he should have been, attending Hogwarts parties, meeting new friends, and discovering his sexuality.
When Ministry documents leak the possibility of a hidden Horcrux in an alternate reality, Harry realizes that he never will find peace. Paranoia brings back dangerous old habits, and Harry is determined to end any chance of Voldemort's return if it's the last thing he does.
In a freak accident, Harry finds himself on Earth's Echo, a seemingly perfect reality that has never been touched by Voldemort. The only problem: Draco Malfoy is unapologetically in love with him. It's a problem that Harry is willing to overlook if it means he never has to go back to the miserable life he was living — until he realizes that there's much more to this so-called perfect reality than it seems, and it sends Harry deeper into the universe than he ever wanted to be.

Summary
Harry had hoped that death was going to be peaceful. Opening his eyes to a new type of pain and suffering was not what he thought was going to happen when he walked into the forest. He had traded one hell for another. Or so he thought.

Summary
What happens after the end of Harry Potter & the Cursed Child? Well... this is my very canon-compliant headcanon.
In which Harry and Draco continue their budding friendship from HPCC, Harry continues to be stupidly oblivious to his feelings for Draco, and Ginny is... well, she's quite alright with it all, actually.
Also, Scorpius and Albus pick up where they left off with the updated new script quotes weaved in. :)

And why did that chain connect with the exact same one on Izuku's wrist? Holy shit, just his damn luck.

(aka 'how to survive endless rebirth with your so-called soulmate')
Harry and Tom’s souls are tied together. Which is why they’re in this endless loop of rebirth.
At some point, they stopped caring and just started fucking with people.

Summary
Anthology containing:
The End Is The Beginning
Death was not what Harry thought it would be. An empty train and a being proclaiming himself to be the Death, telling him that, “sorry, no afterlife for you” certainly wasn't anywhere near his expectations.
And having his soul and magic crammed back into his four year old body, being told that he can never die… That was another painful kick to the groin.
But Harry is British, and the phrase “keep calm and carry on” is practically a part of him by now. He realises that this is a second chance at life. To actually live and do whatever the hell he wants without being someone else’s pawn. It is a new beginning, and things are going to be vastly different this time around.
Metamorphosis
Sequel to The End Is The Beginning!
After years of living and healing in his younger body, it is finally time for Harry to return to Hogwarts, the seat of Dumbledore's power. Like a caterpillar he has matured and is ready to break through his metaphorical cocoon and spread his wings. Plans are unfolding, plots are solidifying and the future will never be the same.

Memory in a Mural by whispersinthedawn
Fandoms: Percy Jackson and the Olympians & Related Fandoms - All Media Types
11 May 2023
Summary
Percy never thought he'd say this, but he felt a smidgeon of sympathy for a Titan. If hindsight was 20-20, then there was no way that Epimetheus, with his shoddy vision, ever walked anywhere without crashing into innumerable walls.
For Percy, after all, the clues had been as obvious as a trail of breadcrumbs.
But it still took Daedalus showing Percy, not Icarus, the marvellous mechanical wings the inventor had devised to escape the Labyrinth, for the demigod to notice the arrow speeding straight for his face.
Being stuck here, not in a dream, but in someone else's body, was the wall that Percy had crashed into and brought down on himself.Percy had landed in the past – and he had no one but himself to blame.
