    Summary

    Harry Potter has always been different, and his strange connection to plants marks him as the freak his Aunt and Uncle always claimed he was. The wizarding world was supposed to be an escape, but even there, he must hide the truth of his abilities. His magic doesn’t fit the rules, and secrets have a way of growing wild.

    (If only there was someone who understood...)

     
    A re-telling of the books in which Harry has more than one power the Dark Lord knows not.

    Summary

    There was another student here.

    Tom recognized him vaguely—while transfer students were not necessarily uncommon due to the war, they were rare enough to at least make an impression. This particular transfer student was in his year, sorted into Ravenclaw after an impressively long hat stall. He looked like he might be descended from the Potter line, but he did not share the surname so his lineage was of no particular interest to Tom. Nothing about him was of particular interest to Tom, in fact, and yet here he stood, holding the book that Tom had come here to find.

    It would be a good time to turn away. The Restricted Section was restricted for a reason—only books documenting extremely dangerous or extremely advanced magic were stored here.

    Tom’s feet, however, suddenly felt as if they were made of lead. It wasn’t magic keeping him tied down, but something far more mysterious like curiosity or even fate. In any case, the delay was all it took for the Ravenclaw to lift his chin and meet Tom’s eyes.

    This Ravenclaw, Tom realized, had eyes as blindingly green as the Killing Curse.

    Summary

    “I wouldn’t be hasty,” comments sixth-year Tom Riddle, eyes still glued on the boy in thought. "Harry Evans is going to Slytherin.”

    "The strange Mudblood?" Abraxas Malfoy cocks his head. “How can you be so sure?”

    Riddle just smiles in response.

    Silence settles over the Slytherins, anticipation heavy. And, soon they'll know that Tom Riddle is right again.

    Summary

    In another world, Harry Potter was spared. Raised by a Pureblood guardian in Lord Voldemort's Britain, he isn't special and enters his seventh year wanting nothing more than to be allowed to go into Arithmancy research and keep his head down.

    But after a chance encounter with a man who later arrives at Hogwarts on behalf of the Ministry, to evaluate the seventh-year students for potential, it looks like it may not be so simple.

    Marvolo Gaunt seems to have his eye on Harry. The trouble is, Harry has no idea why.


    On hiatus with a new, fully revised, and completed version coming out in summer 2026.
