Summary
"Harry frowned. Here he was, in Azkaban for a crime he didn't commit. Well, that certainly got his plan of to a good start, and earned him twenty galleons from the DA betting pool. Now he just had to escape again, which would earn him another thirty five..."
In which Harry utilises that 'oh-so-dreaded' common sense that seems to terrify the majority of the wizarding polupation. Oh, and Hedwig has an owl army. Just because.
Complete Crack, not to be taken seriously.. Or siriusly?Series

Summary
(A/N: This story was until 29.12.2024 called "The Grey World". "The Grey World" will soon be the title of Part II of "The Grey World Series". I hope this dosn't cause confussion, and if it does I apologize, but the name change was deemed necessary.)
The Horcrux hunt was cut short when Ron left. Not long after, Voldemort showed up and took Slytherin's locket from Harry and Hermione. The Wizarding World went into full war. Harry and Hermione stay together through it all, the loss of friends, allies and hope. Still alive and fighting, but their society is collapsing, so when Harry gets a unexpected treaty offer, it's hard to refuse.
This story will begin at the end of the second Wizarding War and will therefore mention a lot of what comes with a war, death, trauma, loss, pain, torture, rape and more. But as of this moment I do not know how explicit I will make it, so just be warned. There will also be foul language and sexual acts, some with dubious consent, at best.
I also post the story at fanfiction.net, under the same nick, WinterMist2.
Do not steal my story and post anywhere else. Do not translate my story.I do not own any of this. This is the world and characters of J. K. Rowling.

Summary
Harry Potter has always had Tom Riddle's back, preferring to stay in the shadows as Tom's better half in the minds of others.
No one would ever expect that between the two of them, it was Harry who was the one to watch out for, and he liked that fact very much.

The Chosen One Is Dead, Long Live the Chosen One by BeastOfTheSea for IsysSkeeter

Summary
“Both I and the old fool took the boy of prophecy to be Longbottom – the heir to an ancient line of great power, the child of those who had most publicly defied the Dark Lord and lived, and, after the calamity of 1981, the one apparently marked by the Dark Lord as his equal.” Lord Voldemort turned his wand over and over again in his long-fingered hands. “But, I now wonder… perhaps, in our arrogance, we unconsciously endeavored to create a self-fulfilling prophecy. And failed.”

Summary
Lord Voldemort was ready to start the war in full force when a surprise arrived on his front steps — almost literally — in the form of one Harry James Potter, who had disappeared from him once again on the night of his 17th birthday.
This is a story about healing from a betrayal, about learning what is trust and how to trust, about the war and everything in between.

Summary
------
Harry is abandoned by everyone after his name comes out of the Goblet of Fire. When even Hermione and Dumbledore betray him, Harry vows revenge against those who have wronged him. He starts going down a dark path, and Hermione is only his first victim when he binds her to his will. Can she save Harry from fully losing touch with his humanity or will he break her? Or will she join him in the Darkness?
------
Heavy smut, a real, mostly canon-compliant plot, and somewhat realistic character development -- this story tries to have it all! Just be aware of the tags. Seriously fucked up!
