Summary
After escaping from Merope in London and fleeing back to Little Hangleton, Tom Riddle had thought he was free of witches. He wasn’t expecting yet another witch to turn up on his doorstep. This one seems different, but she too smells of Amortentia. Can he trust her when she tells him that she has brought him his baby from a London orphanage?

An origin story for Barely Balanced, an acrobatics troupe I saw at the Georgia Renaissance Festival. In their performance, they called out fanfic prompts, saying that their tricks would inspire fanfics. I did not use their prompts, since this fic is rated for General Audiences.

Summary
Harry puts down the plate in his hands and leans over, so that he is looking right over Hermione’s shoulder. The leaf in her hands turns purple, then a vibrant neon blue. Harry’s whole body seems to tighten, he forgets to breathe. He palms the glass by her shoulder, like he can melt through it to her, to grab her and keep her there. In a second the leaf is back to its original yellow, and then she’s gone, taking quick strides, pulling a car door open.
The leaf is blown away as a breeze comes through.
Harry’s still standing there, his hand pressed to the glass.
It seems like it's time to pay the Granger’s a visit.
An AU were Voldemort comes back when Harry is six or so and he and Hermione never go to Hogwarts. Voldemort hasn't forgotten him.- Language:

Summary
Based off a prompt on Reddit by DumpsterFireScented.
Severus Snape was everyone’s favorite teacher. He made Potions fun, and almost every student continued his class all the way up to 7th year. He never gave any House or student special treatment over the others, and took special care with the most timid first years until they became confident brewers. When Harry Potter came to Hogwarts, no one was really surprised that he took the small, slightly nervous boy under his wing.

Summary
Tom Riddle, Hogwarts’s beloved Defense professor, doesn’t know what happened to his top student Harry Potter over the summer, but by Merlin he’s going to find out. The normally brash and cheerful boy is now jumpy and haunted-looking, refusing to make eye contact in class and avoiding him in the corridors. Tom has seen enough traumatized and abused magical children to recognize the signs, and he won’t rest until he’s helped Harry and ensured his safety, just as he’s done for so many before him.
Meanwhile, Harry doesn’t know how he woke up in a parallel universe where the Dark Lord is teaching Defense and has the whole world hoodwinked. But he’s the savior, damnit, and he’s going to protect this world—and his now-alive parents—even if he has to do it alone. No matter what unconventional tactics Voldemort is using now.
A story of good intentions, miscommunication, and straight-up shenanigans.
