Summary
With the war gearing up to begin again, the Dark Lord running rampant, and a ministry official wearing (shudder) pink taking over the school, Severus Snape just knows this year will be one of the worst in his life. At least there’s the mystery of the new History professor to keep him distracted. Why does the new professor simultaneously terrify and intrigue him? And what’s with his strange friendship with Potter? Should he be concerned the man might be an assassin? Should he help him?

Severus Snape Was a Pessimist
NinjaPandaScholarTime travel. Armed with an exorcism charm, somewhat overpowered Harry becomes the new History Professor, Fred Dobbins LOL. Definitely his real name there. Makes friends with Snape. Takes young Harry under his wing. Obliviates Dumbledore! Sour-faced disagreeable portrait of Salazar Slytherin guards Dobbins' quarters. Umbridge goes missing, never seen again. No-one cares - so sad, too bad. Bittersweet ending.

Summary
Regulus Black survives his adventure in the cave and brings the locket to an unlikely ally: his estranged older brother. The ex-Death Eater strikes a bargain with Dumbledore, cooperation in exchange for his family’s safety. Sirius Black is faced with his toughest mission yet: managing Walburga and Orion Black—who, to his surprise and dismay, decide they rather enjoy having both of their sons back, and very quickly scheme to make this temporary family reunion permanent.
Or: the story of how one night completely changed the course of the war and Sirius's life.

Summary
"Well, here we are." Sirius pushed open the door with a grand sweep of his arms. “Home sweet Hell.”
Sirius had bad memories of Grimmauld Place, tainted by his own less than stellar family. But for Harry, whose summers had previously involved being locked away either in a cupboard or Dudley's second room--with bars on the windows, no less--it was perfect.
---
With Sirius free from Azkaban and taking up his role as Harry's guardian, Voldemort pursuing a political path to power rather than bloodshed, and a defense teacher that isn't actively trying to kill him for once, Harry has high hopes for his third year at Hogwarts. It'll be nice to sit back and be a kid for once.Only Harry's life is never so simple, and he soon finds himself facing a myriad of new challenges: school bullies and new family dynamics, horcruxes all but falling into his lap, his deja-vu brain giving him mixed signals, and hidden murmurs arising from old Death Eater circles that may pose a threat to him regardless of his tentative alliance with Voldemort. Things seem destined to never be easy, but if there's one thing Harry knows by now, it's that he won't have to do it alone.
