Summary
Harry Potter was very lonely. Yes, he had friends, a good job, and just finished his mastery in defense, but it was usually just him and his son all alone at night when everyone else had families and lives apart from them. When he learned by chance that he may actually have some living family, it should have been an easy decision to reach out to them. Unfortunately, nothing comes easily to Harry. Harry's biological father just had to be the most difficult person in the world to get a meeting to see, and the absolutely most suspicious when confronted with a paternity claim.
Tony Stark was very lonely. He and Pepper had recently broken up. His friends had betrayed him, and he was now forced to live with the very same people who had hurt him. He didn't think he could take one more blow and stay standing under it. Tony didn't have family; he didn't know what to do with family; too bad Tony's family wasn't sure what to do with him either, but they were going to give it a hell of a try anyway.

Summary
A process is recursive when it defines or contains itself; e.g., the Fibonacci sequence, which determines the next number as the sum of the previous two.
But not all recursive processes are mathematical. Recursion can happen in a temporal context when, for instance, the powerful magical force that is true love drags you back in time so it can create itself, endangering the fate of the Wizarding World—not to mention the very fabric of space and time—along the way.

Summary
There was another student here.
Tom recognized him vaguely—while transfer students were not necessarily uncommon due to the war, they were rare enough to at least make an impression. This particular transfer student was in his year, sorted into Ravenclaw after an impressively long hat stall. He looked like he might be descended from the Potter line, but he did not share the surname so his lineage was of no particular interest to Tom. Nothing about him was of particular interest to Tom, in fact, and yet here he stood, holding the book that Tom had come here to find.
It would be a good time to turn away. The Restricted Section was restricted for a reason—only books documenting extremely dangerous or extremely advanced magic were stored here.
Tom’s feet, however, suddenly felt as if they were made of lead. It wasn’t magic keeping him tied down, but something far more mysterious like curiosity or even fate. In any case, the delay was all it took for the Ravenclaw to lift his chin and meet Tom’s eyes.
This Ravenclaw, Tom realized, had eyes as blindingly green as the Killing Curse.

Summary
Little Whinging, Surrey is a place where individuality goes to die. Row after row of identical houses line the streets with pristine, white picket fences and perfectly pruned hedges and house perfectly normal families. Those who live on Privet Drive are no exception to this.
But there is one little boy who does not fit into that mould.
Little Hari Potter, who has befriended snakes and knows their ways, hears his neighbors whispering of things he wanted them to notice and says, “Aunt Petunia, did you hear? Mrs. Number Six thinks we’re too poor to afford clothes for two children. I heard her talking about asking the neighbors for donations for us. Isn’t that nice of her? I know that I’m a huge burden on you all, so I’m glad that someone is stepping up to help out.”
And that simply will not do. The Dursleys care more for their reputation than anything else, and so things slowly but surely begin to change as a result.
The Hari Potter who arrives at Hogwarts could never sort anywhere but Slytherin.

Summary
Four-year-old Luna has been able to see lights her whole life- and when both of her parents die in an explosive magical accident, she decides to grab on to one of the lights and follow it.
Meanwhile, Regulus Black has never really thought of himself as the parental sort- he's hardly interacted with a child in his life, much less raised one. But when two magically inexplicable orphans show up and somehow resurrect him- well, what else was he supposed to do? Not immediately adopt them? Yeah, right.
(Features little Luna and Harry adopting each other as siblings and Regulus being in way, way over his head)

Summary
James and Lily Potter were absolutely abnormal, thank you very much.
For one thing, they were dead. For another thing, they were addicted to television.
But you’d be addicted to television too if it meant you got to watch your only child grow up in a world without you by his side.
Welcome to a director's cut series where we get to watch Harry’s life - the good, the bad, the hilarious, the murderous - through the eyes of his parents and their friends in the Afterlife.
This is a spin-off of the (completed) Seven Years of Chaos series and cannot be understood without reading the rest of the series first.
This story is never abandoned, but it lives in the back of my mind because - truly - the story is completed. This is only a bonus.

Summary
It starts slowly, the steady disconnect between who he is and who he should be. The man in the mirror becomes a stranger to him; he looks into the glass and wonders how everything became so distorted and backward and...wrong. He notices in bursts: when Teddy grows taller than him, when he’s kissing Ginny on her lips and looking at the subtle smile lines she’s starting to develop around her plush mouth. She’s got the cutest crinkles by her eyes.
His face is smooth as it was when he was seventeen. Which was 18 years ago. He hasn’t aged a day.
_________
Living forever isn't all it's cracked up to be. Harry Potter learns the meaning of immortality when everyone he loves dies again and again after becoming the master of death. After millennia of love lost, Death sends him to "Elsewhere" in order to give his master something new and different.Harry emerges from ash in New Asgard. What's a man like Thor to do but offer the traveler a home?

Summary
Alaenys Velaryon is the eldest daughter of Rhaenyra and Laenor, and like her brothers, she is not Laenor's child. Instead there is a possibility of her being Daemon's child. None the less Laenor sees her as his own, but when Alicent becomes more and more suspicious of Jacaerys and Lucerys, Rhaenyra offers to wed her to Aegon the Elder, yet Alaenys seems to prefer the company of his younger brother, Aemond.

Summary
Something was wrong. He looked around. He was in his rooms at the Vale. The mirror across the door was cracked. It had been cracked since his wedding to the bronze bitch. He looked at his hands. They were lightly scarred and so, so young. He tried to remember. He did not feel drunk but his memory was foggy enough that he may as well be.
