Summary
“Harry, are you going to explain any of this?" Ron asked. "Or did you go totally senile in that fall?”
Harry didn't know where to start. He looked at the young teenager in front of him, his mind whirring. This was his best friend. He would always trust Ron with any big changes in his life, Harry decided. Regardless of how old he was.
And honestly, Harry needed help right now.
OR
While hunting horcruxes with Ron and Hermione, a freak accident lands seventeen-year-old Harry Potter back in his thirteen-year-old body. He has to tell someone, and who better to trust than his best friends? Don't worry, though: even this cannot tear their friendship apart.

Summary
A continuation of my fic Even This. Now that Ron, Hermione, and Ginny have joined Harry in 1993, it's time to actually grab hold of this opportunity to fix the future! Though their actions definitely grab the attention of...well, basically everyone. But changing the future is easier with help, right? What could possibly go wrong?
In this pseudo-sequel, each chapter will be told from the point-of-view of one of the non-time travelers. How long does it take Albus Dumbledore to notice that something weird is going on in his castle? How do Molly and Arthur react to the sudden change in their youngest two children? And so on, the story goes. The various POVs will slowly reveal the actions of the time travelers as they strive to save lives...and maybe the whole fate of the wizarding world, while they're at it.

Summary
Harry Potter had just turned 40 years old in the year 2020. His kids were off to Hogwarts, with James starting his sixth year, Albus his fourth, and Lily her second. Life had gone on with Harry making his way through the Auror department and becoming head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.
But at 40, life at Hogwarts had proven it wouldn't just stand still. After an incident with his daughter, Harry met with Draco Malfoy after a taxing and grueling month long Board of Governors meeting over the incident that would have seen their sons expelled. Not that Harry would ever let that happen. Still, the incident proved to Harry he couldn't avoid the position that so called to him.
Naturally, right as he was setting up to accept the DADA position, everything had to go dead wrong when the very reason for his daughter's near death and son's explosion decided to try and ruin Harry's life. In the past. Supposedly...
He was rather confused by this turn of events, too.
