Summary

When Harry wakes up in an alternate timeline--a timeline where Voldemort was defeated long before the first war--he discovers everything is different. His parents, his godfather, his friends--and him. Harry must deal with the consequences of who he would have been if he had been raised by his parents, and figure out where he stands with his casual hook up, Draco Malfoy.

I love this!!! Usually I don't read time-travel or magic-based-alternate-universe fics like this, but since your work is always amazing, I decided to read it, and I'm so glad I did! I love everything about this so far, and I can't wait for Chapter 2!!!

Oh my god. I actually did a little happy dance in my bed (where I'm reading this). This is going to be brilliant. I almost wish I hadn't started until it was complete so I would be in this state of anticipation. Alas, I will sit here and wallow until more had been written because I love your writing and will be as patient as I can possibly be so as to not rush you or be rude. :P anyway, amazing. Fantastic. Brilliant. All the good words.

Oh my goodness, thank you! When Harry walked into the kitchen and found Regulus, I had to jump up and try to go find my nerdily sympathetic roommate (found her, but she was occupied so I still have no one but the comments section to SQUEE at). One, Jegulus!!!! And two, all the other Harry-ends-up-in-alternate-dimension fics I've read have everyone just accepting the new and honestly super suspicious Harry, so I kinda love James and Sirius attacking him. Three, baby Teddy! I can't wait to see what happens

Chapter 1

I really hope you update soon and I might die us you don't

LaDonnaErrante

Just now

Aaack! This is so good, it started out as an interesting premise and then with every twist of the plot--Harry waking up to a blow job from Malfoy, having a sister, Jegulus, etc, it just got better and better! It's so easy to feel along with Harry the fear and wonder of this new world and his burgeoning disappointment with the version of him that everyone in it knew. These lines especially just made my heart ache! The James Potter he’d stared at in photos and in memories. The James Potter Harry had seen in memories and heard talk about. The James Potter he looked too much like, and had been robbed of the chance of ever knowing.

Chapter 1

It's been a long time since I've seen a fic with such a level of creativity and quality. I've been a member of the fandom for years; it feels like all the classics are gone, replaced by an endless stream of over used tropes. This fic is refreshing and it has the potential to become a classic. Harry's confusion is so compelling and his conflicted joy beautiful, especially when contrasted with his loneliness in the chapter's beginning. I'm just so pleased, and I really hope you continue. Thanks so much for sharing.

This is sooo good! Reminds me a bit of Turn by Saras_girl which is like one of my fave fics but it's even better because OMG James and Reg and everyone! Tears! Everywhere!

I greatly enjoyed this story. I really liked the idea and the plot was so interesting that once I started reading I only put it away and went to sleep because my battery died. If that hadn’t happened I probably wouldn’t have stopped until I was done. Also I cried like a little baby through like, half of it. It was an interesting experience (definitely in a good way) reading a story that had some ideas that I’ve only seen on tumblr and in fanart until now, this was the first one for me. Oh and I’ve never thought about James/Regulus before, I can honestly say that the pairing appeals to me and it has a lot of potential, too bad there’s such a small number of fics...All in all, this was a really interesting and engaging story, thank you for writing it and sharing.

I had so many feelings while reading this. You really got me right where it hurts a time or two, but it was so worth it for that ending. Absolutely wonderful. I also love how you REALLY refused to allow Harry to be the perfect kid with such a drastic change to his backstory. A lot of people seem to still try to make him perfect, or force all these perfect friendships. You made him work for all of it. Love love love it. Great fic.

I'm a sucker for time travel/alt timeline fics and yours is really original, I really enjoyed reading it! It was a new take on the whole harry is in a new timeline trope :)

THIS STORY IS FREAKING AMAZING

Chapter 1

Just now

So I stumbled across this fic several months back and I somehow lost it before I finished reading it. SO IMAGINE MY EXCITEMENT WHEB I RECOGNIZED THE FIRST SENTENCE!!! God I love when this happens!!! Anyway I fucking loved the bits I read back when sooooo thanks for being awesome. I can't wait to read the rest! :)

This is such a lovely fic! I'm always on the lookout for fics about what the world would be like without Voldemort, and this story helps satisfy that curiosity while tying it back to the universe we do know. It's a relief that Harry isn't the only one stuck with memories of the war. I think Draco did it all partly for selfish reasons, but also out of a deep love for Harry we get only a glimpse of here. Thanks so much for writing!

I have been screaming with laughter and joy while reading this. Oh my god. oh my GOD oH mY gOD

Wow. I have a lot of feelings, so I'm going to try to get through them coherently. First off, this fic is going to fucking destroy me, I can already tell! Second, you are a gorgeous writer, I feel everything so completely. third, this is a bit embarrassing but this first chapter made me want to cry. I actually teared up a little bit because I've been feeling Harry miss his parents and sirius (etcetera) for so long, I felt like I was seeing them alive again for the first time. fourth, Oh my god. Harry as an arse...I have so many questions. how did this happen? He's so upset with himself. I just want them all to have a do over. fifth, I know hermione's an unspeakable and all but she could have given Harry some fucking warning - I mean,damn. Sixth, Draco Malfoy. Seven, DRACO FUCKING MALFOY - sass master, bestill my beating heart. I am dead. eighth, Tilly is my everything! ninth, I think I might be in love with you...don't be alarmed! I've just never encountered a fic I fell in love with this quickly.

are.you.fucking.SHITTING.ME.It was amazing.I was curious, confused, angry then SO HAPPY and then so fucking FURIOUS. HOW COULD YOU SEND HIM EVEN FURTHER BACK?!And how the fuck did Draco survive being a kid again and having to go through puberty TWICE...So many questions. Such an amazing plot.

Chapter 1

Just now

A pretty cool reworking of a tired old fanfic trope :)I love what you did with Lily--it's not that I DON'T like James/Lily (I'm very neutral on them), but the way they're usually written in fic drives me nuts. They were, to my mind, one of those naive couples who rushed into marriage very young because of the war. I like how Lily in this fic is doing her own thing, though I can't quite buy that CanonTimeline!Harry wouldn't make more effort to get in touch with her. I also loved the bits we saw of Hermione and Krum, and Hermione/Krum, in this fic! I loved Ron being a little fanboy, and poor Hermione, having to deal with all that meanness in her final year of Hogwarts :(The Harry and AlternateTimeline!Sirius bits broke my heart a bit. Harry gained so much in this timeline, but he'll never have that intense connection with Sirius that he had in the original timeline. Some of the elements of this story were a little strange, but I honestly enjoyed it MUCH more than certain official stageplays involving time-travel that I could mention.

I wanna leave you a long ass commment to fully express how much I enjoyed this but my typing is bit compromised at present so I'll just try my best . Right so I started this a couple of hours ago and I was actually so excited to start this that I stopped midaay through the fic I was reading to get to this because this is a typw of story I've wanted for a really long time and I am so grateful you gave it to me. The moment I started I didn't want to stop it was so good.

Hey, so I can’t leave any more kudos as this is a reread. Last time I read this, it wasn’t a series haha. I’ve been searching for a while as I absolutely loved this story and wanted to read it again. Hopefully it’s been long enough that I’ve forgotten enough to enjoy the reread! Thanks again for the amazing story, I’m looking forward to a sequel this time
