Summary
Vanishing after obtaining precious treasures he stole from a cooling corpse, Tom Riddle begins his study of the Dark Arts by taking a tour into restricted, forsaken, and abandoned territories. Just dipping his toes into a journey he originally thought to be the safest place to start, Tom makes a minor deviation in a fork-in-the-path that leads him into the arms of something far more primordial than time itself. Something from between the seams, beside our existence, and beyond the dark.

Raised in the Great Nation, Harry believed from childhood that he was meant for little more than average domesticity. Though as his sixteenth birthday crawls around the corner, he's forced into a world of wild and terrifying magic. Armed with only the remnants of his late mother's trinkets and uncanny dreams of a boy with red eyes, Harry seeks out his heritage in the Elden Realm.

Summary
An unstoppable force meets an immovable object.
A feather becomes the strongest weapon ever wielded.
Two birds fall as one.
Or. . .
Harry Potter is immortal and has outlived everything that tied him to his mortal self. Time is tired of Death and Fate getting all the fun, so Harry is sent back to the beginning of Voldemort's reign.
Tom Riddle's life is violently ripped apart and molded back together with gentle hands.
The curtains have opened once again.

Summary
Harry Potter was forty years old, a father of three, and on top of the world... only to wake up one morning in his childhood cupboard - though, not exactly in his own childhood. Trapped in an alternate universe where his parents are alive, he was abandoned to the Dursleys anyway, and everyone's calling his brother "The Boy Who Lived" (despite all evidence to the contrary), Harry just wants to escape the drama and figure out how to go home. But between a spoiled bully for a father, a brother raised to think he's the messiah, a sister who hates him, a mother who's suspicious of him, and the downright weird divergences this timeline has taken, that's easier said then done.
Oh, and Voldemort's there too.

Summary
His shirt was soaked through with blood as his hand moved uselessly, trying to cover the wound. A low groan slipped past his lips. The heat of the surrounding flames lashed against his skin, weakening him with every passing second.
He clenched his teeth. With the weight of those red eyes fixed on him, he forced himself to rise.
He hadn’t fallen yet. He would make sure those eyes gleamed with satisfaction.
On July 31, 1980, the Potter family welcomed twins into the world: Elian Cassian Potter and Rowen Fleamont Potter. However, the rigid traditions of the wizarding world and the Dark Lord’s desire to train the heirs of the Sacred Twenty-Eight pushed Elian into the background from the very beginning. Rowen, born just two minutes earlier, had already secured his place as the family’s heir. The lack of attention and the harsh treatment he endured fed the ambition within Elian—an ambition that would, in time, grow into a deep and consuming obsession.

8... then7? Elian is on the list Voldemort has seen, Rowan has bragged about killing the creature, his parchment has been taken and the death eaters are acting strange. He was suspended and dipped out.

Summary
Tom Riddle does not believe in prophecies. He does not believe in destiny, love, or any of the soft-headed nonsense his peers cling to. He believes in power, in control, in himself.
But Tom Riddle is also fraying at the edges—burdened by exams, his housemates’ endless war gossip, and the whisper of a prophecy he never asked to hear.
Either way, he vows never to believe in fate—until fate itself arrives at Hogwarts on a godforsaken Friday in the form of a transfer student whose name echoes his greatest fears and whose eyes silence every thought beneath Tom’s perfect head of hair.

4 harry is seen as a horror to those around him, he's having an okay time adjusting. Tom is frazzled and starting to get ambitious with who he believes Harry is death itself.
