    Summary

    Harry does not give up the Horcrux when he dies.

    Can goodness be a hero’s tragic flaw?

    Moved by compassion, he embraces it instead.

    Can forgiveness be a gift unconsciously granted?

    What follows next, he could not predict. He’s not sure he ever really had a choice in the matter.

    Can love exist, even flourish, in a heart that does not give its consent?

    The world Harry wakes up to is not like the one he remembers.

    This is a horror story.

    And his captor is neither the same as he was, nor as different as he would like.

    This is a love story.

    Summary

    Her godfather is dead. So is Tom Riddle, which appears to be the only thing anyone else cares about. Oh, and getting ahold of her, her money, and her titles. Fuck that noise. Ianthe learned how to Maraud from the best, and she doesn't intend to take this lying down.

    She intends to change a single moment in time - and change the life of her godfather, herself, and the whole of Magical Britain. That the price for that change is all that she is, including her life? There's always a price.

    Merlin showing up and telling her that the price of her actions isn't her death? Not part of her calculations. Changing the past is surprisingly easy. Living it might just be harder. Especially when the lives she changed to save the future collide with the one she now lives, thirty years in the past.

    Summary

    After losing Sirius at the Department of Mysteries Harry is left abandoned, lost and alone with her uncaring relatives for the summer. She somehow finds herself sharing dreams with Lord Voldemort who quickly discovers that she is his horcrux, changing the terms of the game between them forever.

    Because not only is she a part of himself that he is now determined to reclaim, but thanks to the terms outlined in a centuries old will she is also the key to him claiming his birthright and conquering Magical Britain once and for all. And nothing is as seductive to the abandoned as someone who truly wants them.

    Incredible worldbuilding. There's a good deal of humor, and fem!Harry still has the emotional literacy of teenager. Relationship seems a little fast, but not uncharacteristic compared to similar works.

    Reread, even if solely for lore around runic war warding.

    Summary

    "My murderer," Tom croons to him, Harry's pulse racing beneath his grip.
    "You'll never know the irony of that," Harry rolls his eyes.

    Harry Potter is a time-travelling, furious mess and he is going to kill the Dark Lord. Like most of his plans, things do not work out.
    Tom should not be so obsessed with his would-be murderer.

    Summary

    Tom Riddle was looking for the perfect artifacts to house his soul while working at Borgin and Burkes. He didn’t think the Vanishing Cabinet sold to the shop was particularly noteworthy, that was until it began to smoke and Tom found a teenager within who wore Ravenclaw’s Lost Diadem. Even more intriguing was everything in his mind and memories that Tom could use to succeed as the future Dark Lord, and the wayward teen himself who was much more than Tom could have ever imagined.

    I managed to get through an ABO fic without giggling :D
    There's a lot of international magical worldbuilding taking place. The attention to details is lovely.
    Good reread if craving lore.
