    Summary

    No one bothers to tell Harry about the Statute of Secrecy or, for that matter, that electronics shouldn’t work in Hogwarts, so when he joins the magical world, he just continues writing his blog. The Muggle public is convinced he’s a brilliant fantasy writer, his friends are convinced he’s a menace to society, and MI6 is convinced Hermione is a Russian spy.

    Summary

    “Have you heard of changelings, Líle?”

    Lily tightened her hold on little Harry, wrapped snugly in his favourite blanket and carried in the crook of her arm. She looked the old washerwoman in the eye and bared her teeth in some semblance of a smile.

    Unbeknownst to many, the Potters have an old relationship with some unlikely Folk of Godric's Hollow, specifically the Good Neighbours from the woods beyond the little village. One day in October, as Samhain and their impending death approached, Lily Potter went to the Neighbours to seek protection for Harry, and the course of history is changed.

    Summary

    What if Harry Potter wasn't raised by the Dursley family, but a couple who loved and supported him wholeheartedly?

    What if, due to the love he rightfully recieved as a child, he didn't feel the need to prove himself as a hero from the minute he arrived at Hogwarts?

    And what if not a single person at Hogwarts was expecting the powerful whirlwind that was the Boy-Who-Lived, even if he wasn't the Gryffindor Golden Boy they thought he would be?

    A fix-it fic in which Harry grows up in an actually supportive family, which causes quite the personality shift for our young protagonist, a shift in cast, and a shift in plot so great that this is almost a completely different story at times, but the bones are still there.

    Preface: Fuck JKR, these characters are mine now. Canon is my bitch and I will do what I so desire. Proceed with that knowledge.

    Summary

    Oliver Stone once said: "The first casualty of war is innocence."

    Harry Potter was the lone survivor of a plane crash when he was just five years old. Recovered by an unknown militant group, he grows up without innocence as it is the only way to survive. The wizarding world isn't ready for this Savior.

    And, once he does return to the wizarding world, it starts to change. The war brought by the Dark Lord escalates and even the Ministry of Magic changes in response. War is encompassing, but where there is darkness there is still hope.

    ----

    Inspired by the web comic "Teenage Mercenary" (also known as "Mercenary Enrollment")
    Part one of this series was the one-shot inspiration for this full length piece. "Casualties of War" has diverged from the original one-shot.

    Summary

    After her husband is unfaithful and her cookie-cutter perfect world is turned on its head, Petunia Evans Dursley finds herself in her old hometown, full of regrets and feeling that her life has been without purpose. Before she can quietly take her own life, she is given an impossible offer by a long-dead figure from the magical world: return to the past, and rewrite her own history. Seeing it as a chance to make up for her biggest regret, Petunia accepts and finds herself in the middle of a Wizarding war she knew little about, protecting the younger sister she tried to forget by seeking help from the one person in the magical world she knows how to find.

    A what-if story beginning in the latter years of the first war against Voldemort, where an unlikely alliance turns into an even more unlikely romance, and the bonds that bloom from it will change the course of Wizarding history.
