Harry's life had never been what one would consider normal, but this was just plain weird.

Lily and James Potter had two boys "born as the seventh month dies". The oldest was Evan James Charlus Potter. And the youngest was Hadrian Sirius Orion Potter. On that fateful Halloween night in '81, Albus Too-many-names-Dumbledore, the great and powerful 'light lord' made a grave mistake. He told the world that Evan was 'the boy who lived'. Whilst actually it was his younger brother. Read as Hadrian becomes the outcast/shadow compared to his 'perfect brother'. He becomes a Slytherin - not only a Slytherin but the first Potter in Slytherin. Will Albus ever realise his mistake?

After his first year Harry knew both the Muggle world and Wizarding world wasn't safe for himself. After something Ron said to Draco, Harry was now the run from a large group of Slytherins out for blood. So Harry did the one thing he always did, ran into the forest to get away from bullies. Only, the Forbidden Forest is far different than the small woods budding Privet Drive. Art not mine. Credit to the incredible artist.

I do not own Harry Potter. This is a boyxboy fanfic. If you do not like it then do not read it. Harry has never felt at home with the Dursley's and he is about to find out why. Dumbledore has been lying to him about almost everything. Maybe from this new revelation the boy who lived can stop being such a celebrity and more of a normal person like he has always wanted.

Severus Snape's troubles came in the form of one small green eyed boy, showing up at his door with a plate of cookies in hand. That started it all. Cross posted on AO3 as Neighbour in Black.

Harry Potter had his title as heir to the Potter clan taken and given to his younger brother all because his brother was the boy-who-lived or so everyone believes. What really happened that night Voldemort attacked Harry defeated him but his younger brother Alex was declared the savior instead. Though it is Harry who is the true savior he was pushed to the shadows of his brother and forgotten by most. At age five Harry finds a magical book that is temporarily anchoring someone's soul. Later that day he hear's a certain conversation between Albus Dumbledore and the Potters. Not liking what he hears he runs away. With the help of the goblins he dissapears for few years traveling and learning. Years later it's time for Hogwarts and Harry Potter is not what the Potters or Dumbledore expected. Harry also goes by a completely different name as he can't legally be called Potter he is Hadrian Riverthornes heir/lord of many. How will Dumbledore handle many plans failing because of Hadrian? How will the wizard world handle not knowing who their savior is? How will Dumbledore handle not being able to control one of the possible profecy child?

Harry Potter has been living his life in fear. Fear of his uncle, fear of his power, fear of his magic, fear of his own shadow. But one day, during a routine trip to the market, he meets Tony. Tony has everything someone could possibly desire. But there's one thing missing from his life. When he is walking down the street one day and sees a boy faint on the sidewalk in front of the market, he takes him in under his wing. Is it possible that this one second could possibly change both of their lives forever? (***this fiction will differ from the actual story line and some characters will be very ooc-- please also note trigger warnings on past abuse, sexual assault, and self harm***)

11 yr old Harry misses the Hogwarts Express. Snape is sent to find out why. What he finds changes any preconceived notions he might have had about the Boy-Who-Lived. AU, manipulative!Dumbledore, DE's, Voldy, but no horcruxes.
