Summary
A series of scenes, one-shots, and short stories that refuse to go unwritten. Most lack plausibility. Each chapter is labeled with relevant tags and is under 3,000 words. I didn't want the hassle of posting short works individually. Chapter 1 is an index.

Beyond the Blood Wards ~ Book 1 by SnapeIsMySpiritQuill

Summary
It was a long shot—an impossibly long shot—but it was all he had.
Harry lunged for the photo, his bloodied nose dripping crimson onto the paper as he scrambled for something to write with. But Vernon had locked away all of Harry’s things to prevent him from contacting anyone. In desperation, Harry smeared his blood across the photo with trembling fingers, scrawling three words:
Please help me.
He signed it with a shaky, almost illegible ‘Harry’ before stumbling to Hedwig’s cage. He flung the door open and shoved the photo into her talons, his breath coming in sharp, uneven gasps. Vernon’s angry bellows grew louder as he forced the door open, splinters of wood flying into the room.
“T-take it to Professor Snape!” Harry rasped, barely able to speak through the panic and exhaustion.
Hedwig let out a distressed hoot as Harry squeezed her through the narrow bars of the window. He turned just as Vernon burst into the room, his face purple with fury, his breathing ragged.

Summary
In another universe of possibilities where the butterflies are busy, young Harry's destiny changes on the twitch of an unwitting stranger's roving eye...
*
“I told you, didn’t I? That he left you on the doorstep?” she says bitterly. “On Hallowe’en night, with a note? A note, telling me that your parents… That my baby sister… Had been murdered? The man lives in some kind of self-narrated fairy tale, boy, and he’s decided that you’re his hero. Well, let me tell you something. Your mother and father were heroes. Your world… It was full, by all reports, of heroes, during that war that they kept going on about, and there are precious few of them… Precious few of them… Who were left alive at the end of it. And he was clear, very clear, wasn’t he, when he left you here with instructions that you be kept safe, at the possible - no, definite - expense of my own family… That it wasn’t over?”
Eleven-year-old Harry says nothing. Petunia Dursley turns her head and looks at him.
“Don’t be brave, boy,” she tells him fiercely. “Your parents were brave. They died. Be smart. Be smart instead, and live. On your own terms. No one else’s. Ever.”
