Villains always make the same dumb mistakes. Luckily, Tom Riddle happens to have a rather dangerously genre-savvy friend in his head to make sure that he does this "conquering the world" business the RIGHT way. It's about time the bad guys won for once.

The Battle of Nurmengard ended in a stalemate. Half a century later, Harry Potter feels adrift in a world teeming with millions of fantastic folk. Armed with a talking wand, he forays single-minded into the noble art and sport of Duelling, until one book leads him on the path to discovering his ill-fated parents' efforts to conceal a most dangerous magical secret.

Everybody dreams of second chances. But this was something so impossible, so insane, so unreal - she couldn't have dared to dream it up. Reborn into the (previously fictional) world of Harry Potter, Lyra Addison is determined to not change a thing- that is until she runs into a 6 year old Harry Potter. OC-SI.!beware:last chapter is just a summary of the unwritten plot!

Knowing the future doesn't make it any brighter. AU, SI-OC. Co-written with Riseha.

Most self-inserts are exercises in vanity, and nothing says 'vanity' quite like Gilderoy Lockhart. But with a new personality and knowledge of the future, who knows? Maybe Lockhart will turn out to be a useful DADA teacher after all.

In another life, Harry made few choices. Here, he controls his own fate. Harry Potter's second year at Hogwarts involves a duelling club, an invisible man named Peter Pettigrew, an incompetent Defence teacher, and a deep suspicion that Albus Dumbledore might be a Dark Wizard. Smart!Harry. Independent!Harry. Neville as Harry's best friend. (sort of a self-insert, too)

Petunia married a biochemist, and Harry grew up reading science and science fiction. Then came the Hogwarts letter, and a world of intriguing new possibilities to exploit. And new friends, like Hermione Granger, and Professor McGonagall, and Professor Quirrell... COMPLETE.

Harry Potter loves, and is loved by, his parents, his godfather, and his brother. He isn’t mistreated, abused, or neglected. So why is he a Dark Wizard? NonBWL!Harry. Not your typical Harry’s brother is the Boy Who Lived story.

There are always moments that can change a story dramatically, in small or large ways. Here, we choose the road not taken, the road less travelled... and that will make all the difference. Here, we follow the story of 'what might have been'. (Harry befriends someone in Diagon Alley and it changes his life. Neville-Harry friendship. Sort of a self-insert but not really?) SEQUEL UP

I never pretended to know what I was doing in my last life. Why should I pretend to know anything about this one? Well, the other option is a horrific and bloody death, so...I better start learning how to be a witch. OC Self-Insert/Draco's Younger Sister. [DEAD]
