Summary
Pensieves are dangerous instruments of great power, capable of impossible feats. Mixing blood and memories was a recipe for greatness and disaster.
At the height of the war in Dumbledore's Office, Snape's blood and Harry's blood fall into the basin, entangled with the memories, and it changes the course of the world as those memories come to life. Thrown backwards into 1975, Harry and Snape are forced to adapt to danger and drama from all angles.
Oh, and Harry's eyes absorb that which changed him - one red as blood, the other silver as memories - leaving him completely blind. How will that vulnerability change the way Snape views him?

Summary
“Not Harry, not Harry, please not Harry!”
“Stand aside, you silly girl… stand aside, now”.
And Lily Potter stepped aside.
Voldemort stared at her.
“... Is this some sort of trick?” he asked softly.
“No". Her voice was flat, lifeless. “You already killed James... If you let me live, then you can have Harry”.
Voldemort’s lip curled - not in amusement, but disgust. His own mother had died for him. Pathetic, yes, sentimental and foolish - but she had chosen to die so that he could live. Lily Potter wasn’t even choosing to care. Surely the child of prophecy deserved a better mother than this! Even he could give the boy to a better family to be raised right!
Voldemort slowly reached down and picked up the child.
He was still staring at him. He was still oddly silent. His eyes were still the colour of the Killing curse and brimming with power.
Yes, Voldemort decided, that was exactly what he’d do.
"You belong to me now" he whispered.
And with a crack like thunder, he turned on the spot, vanishing into the night.Or, the one where Harry Potter is raised by the Lestranges and it goes more or less how you would expect.

Summary
King's Cross Station looks a little different, the second time.
So does the riverbank. So does Sirius, so do the dementors - Hell, even his patronus is different.
Snape, however, is infuriatingly unchanged.- Language:
