FAMILY FRIENDLY. AU. ArchiveOfOurOwn has adult-themed Harry Potter fanfic stories whose summaries includes this sentence, "Hogwarts starts at [age X, where X is greater than 11]." But I see a problem with Hogwarts operating this way.

Harry sacrifices himself in the Forbidden Forest, fully expecting to die. Instead, he stumbles into a world where the Potters are alive and Voldemort is long dead. As he adapts to his new life, familiar faces and a wayward wand are just a few of his problems. Hogwarts has been chosen to host the Triwizard Tournament, and Harry is determined to win - properly, this time. No bashing.

After the end of the war, Harry has a meeting in Gringotts that changes his life. Given a unique opportunity to rebuild the world, he takes it upon himself to restore what was once lost to the wizarding world, while falling for a charming witch at the same time.

Ignored by his friends, humiliated by the ministry, hated by the public, and hunted by his enemies... Suffering under a weight that threatened to shatter him, the mind arts finally gave him a tool to strike back to the world. And he was going to use it, no matter the consequences. (Harry X Multi, Lemons)

Cast into the shadows, and captured by Evil, the Boy-Who-Lived suffered in agony. Twisted, mutated, and mutilated, what happens when he escapes back into the world and learns a terrible truth. Blessed by darkness, guided by death, the world's savior has been lost. A nightmare has been born with only two goals in mind; survive and prosper. (Warnings/Cliches inside)

A disillusioned Harry Potter begins to unravel his potential as the wizarding world follows the Triwizard Tournament. Harry delves into a world that is much greater, and more complicated, than he was aware of. The story contains detailed magic, politics, social situations and complicated motivations. It is a story of growth and maturation.

Harry ran away from home at the age of 9, and has been missing for years. When Dumbledore finally finds him instead of the boy he expected he finds a young man who was using a strange type of magic. Harry can connect with the forest and speak with the wild, and he'll do whatever it takes to protect it.

Harry Potter is done with the Wizarding World. He's been missing for 3 weeks after a meltdown of epic proportions in Potions, where he had Daphne Greengrass as a partner.

What will Daphne do?

Beginning in the graveyard, Harry fails to reach the cup to escape but is saved by an unexpected person thought long dead.

Tasked by the Werewolf Goddess to save the werewolves of the magical world, Harry struggles to control his new instincts as he navigates this dangerous transformation and his changing role in the wizarding world.

It all went wrong. Harry is locked away in Azkaban for decades as Voldemort destroys and conquers the magical world and beyond unchallenged. However, Voldemort's greatest strength will be used against him, and Harry is sent back in time with one mission: to kill the Dark Lord before he rises again. ON HIATUS.

Harry and Daphne find themseves trapped in a hasty marriage after a drunken night, and there is no way out. How will they cope with that? Warnings: underage drinking, probably a lemon or two, and Weasley bashing. Also, English is not my first language, so be prepared for strange language quirks or don't read. Chapter 3 partly rewritten.

Two children have suffered lives filled with isolation and sadness, constantly rejected by the world around them until they believe that they do not belong. But the arrival of a letter from Hogwarts brings renewed hope that they might find the acceptance they crave and a cure for the loneliness in their hearts.

It is the first week of fifth year for Harry Potter and he is already tired of everyone. The other two in the trio don't understand him, Dumbledore avoids him, the world shuns him, and Umbridge tortures him. Saturday, Harry spends almost all day in the library, wasting his time away when he finds a book that only a select few can read. See where it takes him.

They'd left him in that tent. He never thought she'd be the one he ran into. She made him so much more.

A simple change of mind turns Harry's life around. Instead of going into hiding after his escape with Buckbeak, Sirius took Harry on a summer adventure. Watch as Harry takes control of his life and matures from a boy to a man. Hogwarts was about to see a new Harry Potter. Hogwarts start at 14.

A Manipulation fanfic, Updated and rewrote. Includes multiple Lordships, marriage contracts, debts, rituals, powerful magic, goblins and gold. A lot of tropes but hopefully many will have their own twist to surprise you in a different way. Rated M for a reason. A HP/HG/DG - M/F/F - Polyamorous relationships. Not interested to digital art collaborations thanks!
