    Summary

    To rebalance a world spinning toward disaster, Lady Magic recruits an unlikely and understandably reluctant champion- the failed, thoroughly unmourned, recently departed Severus Snape, allowing him to return back to life in his fifth year, before his pivotal “Mudblood moment” as a fully repentant, far wiser, less angry version of his former young self. Snape has a Herculean task ahead. Can he fix himself enough to unite the magical world and revive a dying planet?

    -----

    Slight AU of canon- two pivotal events are different:

    1)Lily and James really are flirting in the scene where Snape is hanging upside-down.
    2)Snape dies in the Shrieking Shack before he can give his memories to Harry, so Harry never walks to his death a willing sacrifice and dies trying his best to take Voldemort with him. He fails to do so. Harry did collect all the 3 Hallows and is still Master of Death, though. He and Lady Magic convince Death to send Snape back to 1976 to right what went wrong.

    The rest of the changes are through Snape's (and sometimes Harry's or others) actions as this story diverges very quickly from canon.

    Summary

    I died content. I woke in a bastard's body, six years old, with a world I recognized and a future I refused to accept. Jon Snow was meant for the Wall. I have other plans. Dragons. Conquest. Empire. Canon derailed before it started—and somewhere in the frozen dark, the Others are still waiting.

    Summary

    It's April 1945. You live in a small Bavarian village and can't wait for the war to be finally over. When American soldiers free your village from the Nazi reign - although most of your neighbours call it occupation - you're needed as a translator. Soon enough you're caught between doing what is right and trying not to become a total outsider. And what will happen when your husband comes back?

    This is an AU - Steve and Bucky aren't supersoldiers, Bucky doesn't have a metal arm and there's no Hydra. Steve has the post-serum physique, though.

    Summary

    Before the start of the war, Charlotte Lehmann had believed it could not get any worse than the Anschluss.

    Watching her beloved country submit to the Reich was a betrayal too deep for words. But things can always get worse. The night can always get darker. By 1943, that darkness had come to plunge Europe into war...

    ...and rumours of a girl who sees fleeting glimpses of moments not yet come, or visions of faces she had never met but would later see, reach the ears of HYDRA, the Nazi deep science division.

    Branded as traitors, 'Charlie' is seized by the Gestapo and torn from her family, remanded to the HYDRA work camp at Kreischberg. There, she's subjected to brutal experimentation at the hands of Dr. Arnim Zola, as he tries in vain to enhance her natural gifts.

    But when the captured 107th arrives, one amongst them stands out. Sergeant James Buchanan Barnes, with defiance still burning behind his eyes, is chosen for the same brutal experiments that Charlie has already been enduring for months. Bound now by common cause, they must find a reason to survive the darkness together—even as it threatens to swallow them both whole.

    Summary

    Either this was a very authentic re-enactment, or this was the war, and by the reactions of the couple in the room, this didn’t seem like a game.

    But that was impossible. The technology for time travel simply didn't exist.

    Bucky turned back to the frightened couple. “What year is it?”

    He needed confirmation that this was an idiotic thought because it was. The old man opened and closed his mouth, like a fish out of water, until he stuttered out–

    “1943.”
