Summary
“Nearly there,” Hermione is telling him softly. “You’ve done it, Harry, you’ve done so well. We’re nearly there, and then you can rest.”
“Hell, you can check out now if you’d like, mate,” says Ron, with a lightness he doesn’t really feel. He’s counting Harry’s heartbeats, matching his breaths, compiling this proof that Harry came back alive because it’s so much a miracle Ron almost can’t believe it. “I’ll carry you to the castle like a proper knight, and everyone will be too impressed with your victory to take the piss out of you.”
“Ron, honestly,” says Hermione.
Harry’s shoulders shake, the ghost of a laugh, and then the woods don’t seem quite as dark.

Summary
What if Regulus Black, and not Severus Snape, ended up being the turncoat Potions Master of Hogwarts?
A not!fic written in bullet points, ignoring the Deathly Hallows entirely because they annoy me.
Beta by my immensely patient Best Beloved, Turn_of_the_Sonic_Screw, and by the delightful starbirdrampant.

100% crack and one of the greatest things you'll ever read.
On the train to Hogwarts that fall Harry is approached by a hooded Draco Malfoy, whose hair is utterly covered in red glitter. “Potter,” says Malfoy, through clenched teeth, “tell me there is a way to get this off.”
“Holy shit,” says Harry, staring. “You look like a really shiny Weasley.”
“Potter,” says Malfoy, clearly inches away from hexing everything in sight.

Summary
In 1993, Gilderoy Lockhart points a stolen wand at Harry Potter and Ron Weasley with the intent to Obliviate them. The wand doesn't backfire. Gilderoy's "discovery" of the Chamber of Secrets is a short-term success.
Other consequences are not short-term at all.
Archived Author's Notes:
I was watching the Chamber of Secrets movie several years back when the scene in question began to play...and immediately I wanted to know what would happen if the wand had done what it was supposed to do. The answer got very complicated, very, *very* quickly.Blame Edgar Allan Poe for the title.
Beta work by Norcumi and Mrs_Stanley. Brit Spellcheck will be performed...soon.
*I use the first 7 books and the Tales of Beedle the Bard as canon, but there are moments from the films used because they left me with fun things to play with.

"Potter! What's the last thing you remember?"
"Mummy and Daddy are worried."
". . . ALBUS!"
Severus Snape does not get paid enough to deal with this shit.

Summary
After the confrontation with Voldemort after the third task of the Triwizard Tournament, Harry doesn't get sad. He doesn't get mad. He gets even.
AU! This story is only partially canon compliant. It is fully canon compliant up to Dumbledore, Snape, Harry and Fudge's little ... chat at the end of Goblet of Fire. Beyond that point, it's hit and miss. NO HARRY HORCRUX! Proactive Harry, Intelligent Harry.

Bookmarker's Notes
Harry's had enough of being led around by the nose by well-meaning adults, and decides to do something about being left shut away and ignorant every summer. He begins with planning, research, and growing and gathering his allies - which includes introducing the Marauders to the Weasley twins and encouraging them to go nuts.
It's almost enough to make you feel bad for the death eaters. Almost. -

Summary
What would have been the appropriate response to a creature that can kill with a look being set loose in the only magical school in Britain? It would have been a lot more than a pat on the head from Dumbledore and a mug of hot cocoa.

Bookmarker's Notes
Wizarding Adults don't generally act in ways overflowing with Common Sense. You know, like maybe calling the friggin' cops or wizard animal control or just evacuating or something when someone's let loose an ancient monster that's actively preying on the student body? NAH, just send in the resident orphan kid, the situation'll probably sort itself out eventually. Okay, sure, that's one idea; but what if maybe we DIDN'T.
