    Summary

    The Elder Wand and its divided loyalties send the final battle back to the last time the Hallows were all united in the same space: Hogwarts, 1946. Alas, temporal displacement doesn't really change much for the prophesied foes. Voldemort still wants to kill Harry; Harry still wants to end the war and go home. Watching avidly from the sidelines of their mis-timed duel, 18 year-old Tom Riddle can't decide whether he wants this mysterious Potter boy to shut up, join his Knights, or snog him senseless.

    Summary

    It’s May 1979 and the Order has just apprehended a pair of mysterious wizards who look remarkably like a Potter and a Malfoy. Naturally, James Potter and Sirius Black are called in to identify the strangely familiar strangers and determine their backgrounds and loyalties.

    (This would be a lot easier if their captives weren’t convinced everyone they talk to is dead. It would also be easier if they didn’t spend half their bloody time bickering.)

    **

    “Just ask them questions only they would know the answer to,” Malfoy suggests.

    “There’s not a single thing that I know about either of them from the first war that any old Death Eater couldn’t find out.”

    “How is that possible?” Malfoy huffs. “He’s your father!”

    “Am I or am I not famously an orphan?” Potter snarls.
