Summary
Little orphan Harry was raised by the sea by his cruel aunt and uncle. His uncle is the mayor of the fishing town. He was told his whore of a mother got pregnant by an unknown man and that she drowned herself in the ocean out of shame shortly after his birth.
Harry is kept away from the ocean by his aunt who seems terrified of the water, but she is actually aware that Harry is not fully human though she has kept it a secret from even her husband out of fear of being punished herself. However one day, Dudley and his friends chases Harry to the cliffs overlooking the ocean, and Piers pushes Harry into the ocean. Harry thought for sure he would drown, however under the waters he transforms into a mythical mermaid.

Severus recognizes Harry for who he is - the missing child of Lily Evans whom the Mer-King had killed to punish James Potter for daring to have a relationship with a human. What kind of life waits for Harry now?

Summary
Harry Potter died saving everyone. But the world kept turning, and something even worse came. Death drops him off in snowy 1938 London to stop the world from burning once more.
Just one problem. He's got paws instead of thumbs.
In the garden of Wool's Orphanage, Tom Riddle's first friend is a tiny snake. Billy Stubbs kills her with a trowel. Tom takes his revenge - brilliant and vicious, but he's so desperately outnumbered that when his bullies corner him, Harry can't help but intervene. A debt Tom repays by designing a collar that can bind a Grim.
Sometimes the road to redemption is paved with ash.
— a.k.a. a dark time-travel romance following Tom's journey from boy to man, Harry's struggle between justice and mercy, and whether caring can redeem someone - or if it only makes them worse.

Summary
“Okay—okay, fine. You win,” Harry muttered, sounding as though he’d been struck over the head. “Just…don’t be surprised if this goes nowhere. I’m not as interesting as you think.”
Hardly relevant, as Tom’s interest lay solely in the man’s wallet. To obtain what he needed, he would tailor himself accordingly.
Tom smiled, not releasing Harry’s hands as he spoke. “I like you, Harry. Soon, you’ll like me too.”
Or: Tom’s hunt for his golden goose, and how he came to claim it.

Summary
Holly Potter, a year after wining the war, realises that while Voldemort might have been stark raving mad – the young Tom Riddle was a shrewd politician and wanted to bring many needed changes to Wizarding world, changes she can get behind wholeheartedly. After being hit by a killing curse for the third time in her life she wakes up in a dimension where Voldemort doesn't exist and Tom Riddle is going by the name Marvolo Slytherin. He is the kind of politician Holly had dreamed he would have been if not for horcurxes.
As Holly and Marvolo get closer to each other in this dimension she slowly starts realising that both in her own world and in this new one the connection between her and Tom Riddle is much much deeper than a prophecy or a horcrux and that she had been manipulated in both worlds to view him as the enemy.
