Summary
Harry is preparing for battle with the help of his friends and family, but not all battles are won with the stroke of the sword or movement of a wand. Some battles are fought with the mind. Others are fought with the flick of a quill. Harry can sense the storm coming and knows that he may not survive it. But with the help of his lovers, his family, his friends and allies, he will leave his mark either way, because in the end it has always been a Potter.
And would it kill someone to make a set of bonding robes that go with two twins that have pale skin, freckles, and red hair who are bonding with a man with pale skin, dark hair, and green eyes that doesn't clash horribly?

Summary
After Harry and Hermione died at Malfoy Manor, Harry meets his reaper in the afterlife. To his surprise, this isn't remotely the first time he had died, but to finally fulfil his destiny this time he will be sent back with his memories and some additional preparation thanks to some long dead people like the founders and a few of his ancestors. This time Dumbledore's manipulations and the Weasleys' love potioning won't happen, rest assured.
Back at Ollivanders with Hagrid, Harry starts changing things rapidly, especially since he ran into his soulmate - Hermione. Upon a first touch she starts to remember everything. Minerva McGonagall and the Grangers rescue Harry from the Dursleys and as Lord of the Noble and Most Ancient House of Potter, with advanced magical skill, knowledge of Dumbledore's and Voldemort's plans and his soulmate on his side a whole new life can begin.
My personal interpretation of the Grim Reaper challenge.

Summary
Just like the many amazing Slytherin Harry Potter fics, this is my take on what would happen if Harry Potter were just a little bit smarter, a little bit crueler, and acted a little bit more like the Slytherin we knew he could be.
Takes inspiration from too many stories to count, but includes tropes like Slytherin Harry, awesome goblins, Dumbledore bashing, and Harry destroying any machinations laid out for him simply by existing and giving things a second thought. He refuses to be anybody's puppet.
After Harry is introduced to the wizarding world, some red flags are raised and questions left unanswered, so he decides to ditch his babysitter and return to Diagon Alley unsupervised. Harry returns to the bank and finds that Dumbledore has been manipulating everything from behind the scenes. Eager to leave the Dursleys behind, Hadrian - he learned his name was - will do whatever it takes to get out from under Dumbledore's thumb, even if it means walking a darker path than expected of the Wizarding world's Savior.
We follow Hadrian on his journey as he explores the wixen world, makes new friends, makes new enemies, and makes plans to ensure that he is never used as a pawn again.

Summary
Hadrian Potter survived the Chamber of Secrets. More than that, he conquered the beast within and saved his sister's life, making a deal with the younger version of his ex-mortal enemy turned mentor/partner in exchange for information and a promise to help him, if Hadrian doesn't kill the diary first.
Now, it is the summer before Hadrian's third year at Hogwarts, and things are going to change. Drastically.
While his guardians are busy debating whether or not Hadrian and his friends should even return to Hogwarts in the fall, Hadrian is busy resurrecting a Dark Lord, going to therapy, and also dealing with the consequences of ascending to Lordship at twelve (almost thirteen) years old. He's been impulsive in the past, but he's never had quite as much political impact as he does now.
Gaining friends, family, and allies is the key this summer to begin his and Bas's plan to overthrow the ministry and reset the board. People aren't pawns, but that doesn't mean that they aren't part of the game; they’re still positioned, sacrificed, and counted.
The wizarding world may think that war is over, but something much larger looms on the horizon.
