Summary
Rose Potter spent twenty-one years as the Chosen One. Reborn as Harry Potter's twin, he alone has the scar after that Samhain night. Harry knows there's something odd about his sister - she's too old, too mature, and knows far too many things she shouldn't - but he loves her anyway. He's been there for her ever since they were born, so Rose'll be damned if she lets history repeat itself.
(In her past life, Hogwarts didn't unite until the very end and everyone suffered for it)
(Lily Potter was willing to do anything and sacrifice everything for the safety of her family. Rose intended to do nothing less)
In which not all Slytherins are evil, not all Gryffindors are good, and the Wizarding World is more than just an extension of the Muggle one.
Year 1 complete, years 2 and 3 pre-written.

Summary
Harry Potter had been able to see people others couldn't since he could remember; he didn't know it was something bad until he could speak and Aunt Petunia would hit him with the spatula for his freakishness. Still, they made good company occasionally, at least the ones who weren't yelling all the time. Regulus, in particular, was a constant guardian; he taught him, was never unkind, and even protected him when his incorporeality allowed.
(Or the one when being touched by death left a lasting impression on one Harry James Potter, leaving one Regulus Arcturus Black to raise his brother's godson. As a ghost. Who knew the afterlife would be so interesting?)

Summary
Interacting with Petunia Dursley is an exercise of patience. Without time served in the Eternal Void, Mari doubts she could manage it. Listening to Petunia describe her—their?—family still tests it.
“What about our nephew?”
Mari asks only when Petunia breaks for a breath after a long-winded personal essay about how her Duddykins hung the moon. Petunia’s gaze shutters and her lips twist as if Mari has interrupted her.
“The boy is,” Petunia raises her teacup to her lips, “disturbed.”
Mari curls her own hands around her cooling teacup and imagines tossing the Earl Grey into Petunia’s face at the blatant dishonesty.
“Losing both of your parents would disturb anyone,” Mari comments and raises her teacup for a sip.
That’s the tea.

Summary
In a meting to discuss the safety of the school in the wake of Sirius Black´s escape, an auror´s sneakoscope detects tampering with the Sorting Hat. All new students, as well as those sorted the last two years, need to be re-sorted to see if their housing was a product of the compulsion spell found in the Sorting Hat.
For Harry and Hermione, this might mean they might get the second chance they thought they would not get, both at feeling as they belong and getting the guidance and help they expected when they entered the magical world.
No one expects the Gryffindor Golden Boy, the Boy-Who-Lived, to be placed anywhere other than with the lions, so why is his re-sorting taking so long? As he sits and waits for the annoyingly long sorting ceremony to end, Severus Snape starts to wonder if he has missed something about the Potter brat, for surely there is nothing not-Gryffindor about him.
And more importantly, how was such a powerful magical object as the Sorting Hat tampered with? And why?
