    Summary

    When Hermione Granger decides that the only way to stop Voldemort is to go back in time and love the evil out of him, Harry Potter laughs. Then he agrees.

    Harry Potter wakes in 1928 with an accidentally age-regressed Hermione and a half-baked plan to change the course of history. He suddenly finds himself with two small children to raise—one of which has the potential to grow into a Dark Lord. Living under a new name and building a quiet life in 1930s Godric's Hollow, Harry’s singular focus becomes raising his children with love and affection.

    As political tensions rise and long-buried legacies awaken, Harry finds himself entangled with Lord Arcturus Black III—who might be everything he ever wanted, if he can just manage not to hex the posh git first.

    Time travel/reincarnation. Found family. Courtship rituals. Domestic fluff. Pretty-swift-not-really-slow-burn romance meets magical chaos, with a cast of precocious children, looming Dark Lords (cough Grindlewald cough), and at least one snake who may or may not be a prophet.

    Summary

    "Death"

    "You are finally ready, I see"

    "Ready for what?"

    "To live"

    "Wasn't I doing just that?"

    "Were you?"

    Harry had no answer.
    (Perhaps that was answer enough. Or perhaps Death just enjoyed being cryptic. Hard to say.)
    ___

     

    {Time-travel AU. Watch as Harry is yeeted into the past, bullies the wizarding world into making sense, and absolutely refuses to follow Dumbledore’s script. Features excessive worldbuilding (someone's gotta fix this mess), slow-burn romance (because trauma-bonding is hot), and a protagonist who treats destiny like Terms & Conditions—unread and promptly ignored. Happy ending optional, sarcasm mandatory.}

    Summary

    It was something they talked about when visiting '76, on the rare occasions they were all on Coruscant at the same time. They actually worked out a few plans, yet it always felt overwhelming and impossible.

    Then Tup killed a Jetii.

    And 'Operation Save the Jetii' was born.

    Summary

    Obito stood over him, silent, his lone red eye burning with an intensity that Kakashi couldn’t quite read. The ground beneath Obito’s feet was cracked from the force of the battle they had just fought, but the world around them remained eerily still. Kakashi could barely lift his head, but he could see enough to know this was it.

    (It should have been)

    Kakashi tried to lift his head, the question on his lips barely audible. “Obito—”

    But Obito’s eye had already started glowing, the familiar, spiraling pattern of his power activating. The air around them rippled, space warping and twisting. Kakashi could feel the pull of the technique, but it felt different this time, deeper, more forceful. His heart pounded in his chest.

    (Obito should have killed him)

    The world around him tore open, the swirling void enveloping him completely. He was falling—through time, through space—ripped away from the battlefield, away from the destruction about to unfold.

    (He didn't)

    Alternately: Kakashi ends up stuck in the Witcher world and misunderstandings are created.
