    Summary

    Each story will be tagged according to the content within that story.

    I can't add tags to the series directly and placeholders are against TOS, so I can't tag what I am planning until I get to those stories.

    Harry Potter reacts much differently to the Dementor attack on his cousin and it causes a cascade of changes in the lives of everyone he knows. He takes advantage of some old traditions to escape the predetermined path he has been set on.

    “Somehow you found me a more acceptable confidant,” Snape said, in a tone that implied that Harry’s brain might be faulty.
    “This would probably upset anyone I said it to, but you’re about the only person actively trying to keep me from being in mortal danger in the first place. Plenty of people will help me once I’m neck deep in it, but they’d still encourage me to walk into the mess."
    “That is the faintest praise I have ever received,” Severus said, but Harry had a feeling he meant he was touched.

    Summary

    Based on u/mlatu315's prompt on reddit:
    Harry had always been told his parents were dead, but when he was 5 he learned the truth: he was unwanted. That was the year his baby sister was left on the Dursley's doorstep.

    Summary

    Aurora Sinistra spends most of her time watching the stars. She's no centaur, but she's better than Trelawney. In the summer of 1991, she has a plan redeem the reputation of Slytherin House, and maybe some of the people inside it. Recruiting Severus Snape to help her over a game of chess, the two teachers undertake a gambit of their own that leads the Boy-Who-Lived and the Brightest Witch of Her Age into Slytherin House and friendships with Draco Malfoy.

    However, there is something strange going on at the school. Can the three figure out what it is that Professor Quirrell is up to and stop it? How will the changes in House and friendships effect Harry's relationship with Dumbledore and the headmaster's plans?
