Summary
There were rumours. Mere whispers, spoken in the dark alleyways of Knockturn Alley and its underbelly slums, of a boy, or perhaps a young man, with green eyes and a strange affinity for the dead. A necromancer of some sort. Some said he lured people in to steal their souls. Others said that he would make the dead speak and reveal secrets thought lost - for a price, of course.
Voldemort did not know what the truth was, and he did not care to know. The only thing Voldemort was concerned with was if the boy would prove useful.
(And putting an end to this maddening obsession).
___Harry was not particularly happy to find himself in the past, wearing somebody else’s skin, and without a single knut to his name. And he was even less enthusiastic to learn that he had caught Voldemort’s attention. But he would make do, as he always has done.

Summary
Harry Potter is cold.
(He is always cold.)
Harry Potter was placed with the Durselys to hide him away.
It was unfortunate, but the wards took this one step further. Lily Potter nee Evans was rushed. The protection she had cast was shoddy and slapped together in an act of desperation, fear, and sheer spite.
Her baby would live and her baby would be hidden.
The wards allowed nothing less.
...***...
This is not a story of a brave Boy-Who-Lived. This is not a story of the Boy Who Lived at all.
Harry Potter was cold and no one seemed to notice.- Language:

Summary
Harry was tired of everything. Tired of the responsibilities, the fame, the constant pressure from all angles that made him feel stretched thin, scraped like far too little butter over toast. He was hollow and numb, nothing but an empty husk of a man. He sought respite in death, only to find out that Death would not, could not, lay his soul to rest because he had inadvertently become their Master. Instead he's given the option to travel to a different part of the multiverse. Harry accepts in the hopes that a new home would be able to thaw the apathy that's clutching his heart.
He did not expect to wake up in London in the 1930s. Nor had he anticipated that Death would place him in the body of a young girl, that was probably the biggest shock of all if he was being honest. Becoming room mates with a baby Dark Lord was nothing in comparison to that. At least his new life promised to be... unique.

Summary
Harry Potter was never meant to be ordinary - but he was never meant to be this, either.
Every child in the wizarding world knows about Harry Potter. The-boy-who-lived, the Lights symbol of hope and power, their perfect little saviour. Every child apart from Harry Potter. Harry Potter only knows that the shadows are his true family and that listening to them is what he wants to do.
