    Summary

    People are either afraid of or fascinated by things they do not know. Michael is both scared and fascinated by the notebook he found at Kings Cross. The thing writes back. He'd watched enough horror movies to know he should bury this book in a forest and hope no one ever finds it. But messing with Tom is just so much fun. What's the worst that could happen, anyway?

    Summary

    Harry has some weird words on his left wrist. That must be one of those strange things that Aunt Petunia hates so much. But it's okay! He likes them.

    Then, it all turns even weirder. Hogwarts, magic, a Headmaster and a Dark Lord await Harry - he would prefer if they all just left him alone, thank you very much.

    But when has it ever mattered what Harry wants?

    Summary

    He goes back to the Gryffindor dorms with a vial — one of his own, he wouldn’t dare to touch Snape’s vials, wouldn’t dare to steal from him — full of a transparent liquid, much like water. This would do the trick, this would end the pain he’s feeling.

    He’s going to drink it before going to sleep. But… something. He doesn’t, halts just as the vial is inches away from his mouth.

    He rips a piece of paper from one of his notebooks, writing down:

    -Your name is Harry Potter.

    -You were born on July 31st, 1980.

    -Your parents, Lily and James Potter, died when you were a baby, so you won’t meet them.

    -You’re a wizard.

    There are many other things he doesn’t want to burn inside his head when he drinks the potion, but he doesn’t write them. These are enough.

    He drinks the potion.

    Summary

    In another world, Harry Potter was spared. Raised by a Pureblood guardian in Lord Voldemort's Britain, he isn't special and enters his seventh year wanting nothing more than to be allowed to go into Arithmancy research and keep his head down.

    But after a chance encounter with a man who later arrives at Hogwarts on behalf of the Ministry, to evaluate the seventh-year students for potential, it looks like it may not be so simple.

    Marvolo Gaunt seems to have his eye on Harry. The trouble is, Harry has no idea why.


    On hiatus with a new, fully revised, and completed version coming out in summer 2026.
