Summary

When Dumbledore catches him, the manipulative bastard decided that changing Harry into animal and sending him all but gift wrapped to Voldemort is the best way to get rid of him. What the headmaster didn't take into account was Harry's knack for survival. Stuck as a cat and living amongst Voldemort and his Death Eaters is not how Harry planned on spending his 5th year, but he may just learn something from it.

Summary
Harry lived a pretty content life after the war. Sure, everyone he had ever loved had died. The newspapers were slandering him so much that he couldn't step foot in the Wizarding World without being shouted at. His mind healer kept trying to get him to feel his feelings instead of pushing them down. Granger wouldn't stop bloody annoying him. But he was fine... so why couldn't he stop thinking about dying?
// A very different Harry Potter, one who was born a twin and whose parents were very much alive, lands in an alternate dimension where his parents aren't alive, he's known as the Boy Who Lived, and the war hasn't started up yet. Not only is he stuck with people he very much never wanted anything to do with again, but they keep trying to get him to reveal all his secrets.
(technically part of a series but you don't have to read the other fics to understand this one. More detailed description in the notes.)

Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

Summary
Harry Potter, son of Lily and James Potter, was an abused boy who just wanted to escape. Becoming Henry Evan Black was easy, and running away to start a new life was even easier after discovering his real parentage.
After spending three happy and peaceful years at Beauxbatons Academy of Magic, Henry is pulled back to Britain when his name unexpectedly comes out of the Goblet of Fire and he's forced to compete as the Fourth Triwizard Champion.
Henry must adapt to his new surroundings as best he can while hiding his past identity from everyone around him; it ends up being harder than he first thought.

Summary
“I only want to talk.”
“You’re a middle-aged man who just wants to talk,” he makes air quotes with his fingers to emphasize his words, “to a kid. That’s not weird or creepy at all.”
Severus blows out a heavy breath. “Fine. What if I buy you breakfast somewhere? You seem like you could use a meal.”
“Are you trying to bribe me?”
“Call it a deal. You eat, I speak, you listen. Perhaps you’ll even speak as well and I will listen. Sound fair?”
Harry hesitates. “Sounds like a trap to me, but… whatever.”
OR
In which a homeless Harry Potter reads his Hogwarts acceptance letter while sitting in a sticky booth at a McDonald’s in London.
