Summary
Snape sits across from him, all long limbs and complete lack of what he used to be. Harry swallows and watches his pale palms, a healthier tan than they used to be. They don't look wide enough to strike well. Harry doesn't know if that makes a difference.

Summary
"I’m only two minutes late!” Izuku protested. Had he missed the start of an important test? None of the national, standardized tests were supposed to happen this month and even being two minutes late to one of those wouldn’t elicit this sort of reaction. They were discussing their career interest forms today, but that was it. Nothing time-critical was supposed to be happening.
“Midoriya, you were reported missing a week ago. No one has seen you for eight days. The police have been combing the city for you.”
"I’m sorry. What?”
Midoriya Izuku went missing for a week and turned up in a back alleyway with skills he's never even heard of and no memory of how he came by them. He resigns himself to never learning the truth of what happened to him, but he shouldn't waste this chance should he? He could become a hero with reflexes like these.

Summary
Harry has enjoyed his first few weeks of summer vacation with his new parent. Regardless of his missing post, Harry is looking forward to his second year at Hogwarts. No trolls, no deadly artefacts or three-headed dogs, and no professor trying to kill him. Nothing could go wrong this year. Until an unexpected guest claims danger is lurking in Hogwarts. Honestly, Harry doesn't know what's worse: the disembodied voice only he can hear, his friend's obsessed sister, the one-man paparazzi, or Gilderoy Lockhart. As for Severus, well he just wants to protect his son and destroy a horcrux. They really should've hoped harder for a normal year.

Summary
Before going into hiding, Lily Evans Potter made a decision that no one, not James and definitely not the nearly omniscient Albus Dumbledore, knew about. Harry still goes to Dursleys, but Severus Snape is the one who takes Harry from the small island and to Diagon Alley. As Harry's first year at Hogwarts begins, Snape finds himself increasingly concerned about Lily's son. And Dumbledore's decision to keep the Philosopher's Stone in Hogwarts may or may not be causing Snape's tension headache.

Summary
It's a dire time for the wizarding world. Albus Dumbledore has issued a grave warning that Lord Voldemort is attempting to return to power, only to be removed from his position by an increasingly meddling Ministry of Magic, who now seem to be taking greater measures to control Hogwarts. All of this is happening in the midst of the Triwizard Tournament, in which an agent of Voldemort himself has seen fit to attempt to force Harry to participate.
Harry, however, is having absolutely none of this and has instead elected to leave the country.
Under the guise of a study-abroad program at the new and prestigious Lily Academy, Harry and his friends have jetted off to America for a much-needed escape from a bunch of backwards inbreds and their crumbling society. But will the Atlantic Ocean itself be enough to keep their troubles at bay? And what mysteries await them beyond the Proclamation Line of 1763? Harry is about to find out that the New World means new troubles, ones he could never have imagined.
The clock is ticking. But what is it counting down to?

Summary
Four-year-old Luna has been able to see lights her whole life- and when both of her parents die in an explosive magical accident, she decides to grab on to one of the lights and follow it.
Meanwhile, Regulus Black has never really thought of himself as the parental sort- he's hardly interacted with a child in his life, much less raised one. But when two magically inexplicable orphans show up and somehow resurrect him- well, what else was he supposed to do? Not immediately adopt them? Yeah, right.
(Features little Luna and Harry adopting each other as siblings and Regulus being in way, way over his head)

Summary
Harry Potter is informed in third year that he's technically Lord Slytherin by Right of Conquest since he killed the basilisk. This is very stupid, but on the other hand, if Harry can use it to protect people and solve their problems, he will. (it's still stupid, though).

Summary
Before his third year of Hogwarts has even begun, Harry faces three whole weeks of unsupervised time in Diagon Alley. In that time he takes a trip to Gringotts - and that changes everything.
Burdened with the knowledge that Dumbledore has been blocking his family magic, and manipulating far more than he ever thought possible, Harry doesn't know who he can trust; but he knows he can't keep going that way. There's a whole world of lore and politics and history to catch up on, and the more he learns, the more Harry realises his true place in the world, and how much is being kept hidden from him. All the while, Dumbledore's twinkling eyes are constantly watching, and Harry can't let on how much he knows.
With help from unexpected places, Harry starts on a journey to end the war, and reshape the wizarding world. With how much he looks like James Potter, people have forgotten one important thing about him - he is Lily Evans' son, and she was one hell of a witch.

Summary
It’s been six years since Voldemort was defeated, and five since Harry Potter vanished without a trace.
Just as his friends have given up hope of ever seeing him again, he stumbles back into their lives - but something is very, very wrong. They soon learn that Harry had spent five years trapped in the land of the dead, acquiring strange and terrible new powers. Ancient magics are awakening, and they are keenly interested in the recent happenings of the wizarding world. Voldemort was just the beginning, it seems.
Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Neville all find themselves searching for answers in a dawning Age of Warlocks - an age in which powerful wizards are trophies for godlike beings, coveted pawns in a high-stakes inter-dimensional game of chess.
Throughout it all, Neville and Harry are irresistibly drawn to one another - but can love survive in a dawning era of violence, necromancy, and power?
