Summary
With a sound like a giant bubble bursting, Harry vanished – ripping a chunk of the fence and the earth beneath him into a swirling void.
Dudley and his gang froze, staring at the empty space where the other boy had just been – confusion clear across their faces.
Harry Potter had gotten away.
(Far away, in the humid forests of Albania, a shadow of a man – a mere sliver of soul, the faint spectre of the once-feared Lord Voldemort – felt a violent pull on his magic. He could not resist – could not fight it. In an instant, he was drained, erased, and snuffed out like a candle.
Thus, one prophecy found its end, while another – far away and elsewhere – had only just begun.)
Or: Harry never apparates to the top of the school roof in a feat of accidental magic. Instead, he rips through time and space and – after a few twists and turns – lands squarely in the metaphorical lap of a Dark Lord in his prime, becoming Voldemort’s least favourite plot twist.
Tom, however, eventually comes to appreciate the pint-sized troublemaker he has been saddled with.

Summary
AU. Harry accidentally Apparates to an empty Grimmauld Place when he’s nine instead of to the top of the school roof when he escapes Dudley’s gang. The house is empty except for portraits and sometimes a speaking wooden face, and Harry has to kill his own food, and there’s something nasty in the cellars, and some of the portraits are mad. But this is still a vast improvement over the Dursleys.

Summary
In this world, Harry Potter is not the Boy-Who-Lived. His lightning bolt scar is just that - a simple scar caused by rubble falling on him. He still lived with his abusive relatives, though. He still is the boy who grew up in the cupboard under the stairs.
In this world, the Dark Lord Voldemort died on Halloween 1981.
In this world, Harry is just a war orphan, neglected and lonesome, left to raise himself because he had no one to care about him.
In this world, Harry is free to carve the path of his own destiny.

An Ivory Discretion by Lomonaaeren for certifiedwitch
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
14 Jul 2023

Summary
In a world where Voldemort rules, he runs into the seemingly guileless Harry Potter at a party, and likes what he sees enough to invite Harry to his bed. Harry is enthusiastic about the sex but assumes there is no emotional connection, and tries to maintain his emotional distance from the Dark Lord. This is easier said than done; they keep running into each other, and Voldemort finds himself being seduced as much by Harry’s soul as his body.

Summary
The unknown officer blinked and said, “It is not yet time.”
Kim froze. That single five word phrase was the one that has been etched into the back of his mind for four decades now. The phrase he’d written longingly in the margins of his notes in his early days at the RCM. The phrase that had defined his life up until this very moment.
The words inked into the left side of his torso said the very same thing.
It is not yet time.

Summary
Matvos code is a method of transmitting information using a series of dots, dashes, and spaces. Named after its inventor, Stas Matvos, Matvos code was used extensively for early radio communication before it was possible to transmit voice. Messages in Matvos code can be transmitted as either auditory or visual signals, allowing people to communicate over great distances in a variety of situations.
—
Kim picks up a new book, and with it a new method of communication that he keeps entirely to himself. When it becomes clear after a few weeks that Harry has done the exact same thing, Kim's life gets a little more complicated.

Summary
“No,” you tell him, and he blinks at you.
“No?” The way he tilts his head is uncanny. Your hair raises on edge.
“No.” You take out a cigarette and your hands don’t shake. He laughs.
“A very strong opening, don’t you think?”
The metal railing is burning cold under your bare fingers, but you grip it anyway.
“Who are you?” It comes out more afraid than you mean to. You light your cigarette with steady hands. When you turn to look at him he’s standing right next to you. You startle—his footsteps were completely silent. Here, further out onto the light, he looks even more uncanny. Washed out.
“I was going to ask you that! Who I am, that is.” He smiles at you when you squint at him, like none of this is bone-crushing wrong.
“Why would you ask me who you are?” His stare goes vacant for a moment, and you shiver. His eyes are milky-white. Everything about this feels surreal—the lateness of the hour, the cold biting at your fingers. The snow piling in your shoes. Maybe it is just a very vivid dream.
“It just seems like you might know.” He shrugs. “Or, if you don't—I think I might be dead. Do you happen to know anything about that?”

Summary
Of course these weren't dates. Kim was just being efficient, or requesting assistance when needed, or helping Harry reacquaint himself with certain basic aspects of human existence. Dates were purposefully planned affairs that involved things like flowers, a fancy meal, maybe a kiss goodnight—and perhaps most importantly—an understanding from both parties that they were on a date.
Too bad nobody thought to tell Harry that.
or
5 times Harry thought he and Kim were on a date, and the 1 time Kim took him out on a date for real.
