Summary
1977: In a smoky Cokeworth pub where the Sex Pistols scream Anarchy through crackling speakers, Hermione's serving chips while young Severus Snape pours pints and practices his sneer. She wasn't supposed to be here, but a cursed Time-Turner had other plans the night Dumbledore fell. Their summer burns wild and free, all vinyl records, heated nights, and a love affair that tastes like rebellion. But September's reality crashes in: they're both heading to Hogwarts, where choosing sides means more than picking records.
Two decades, two wars, and one hell of a temporal mess later; the future's about to get a new soundtrack.
Never mind prophecies, History's about to get loud.

Summary
“What are you talking about?” Grace's fingers played quick chords as he spoke. He didn’t even look as he did it, but it did not make them any less purposeful.
“Discussing possible reasons why Tau Ceti is not infected while other stars are,” Eva replied deftly. “I would invite you to join, but we were just finishing—”
“Oh, that’s easy.” His hand twisted a knob, and the notes came out sharper. “It is infected—Petrova Line and everything.”
In Grace's opinion, dreaming about time traveling is no excuse for getting out of practice with his Eridian. To the rest of the Petrova Taskforce, it seems a bit odd that their resident Astrophage expert has suddenly taken to carrying a keyboard around and playing it whenever he speaks. Eva Stratt resolves to figure out what is going on.

Summary
"Well, here we are." Sirius pushed open the door with a grand sweep of his arms. “Home sweet Hell.”
Sirius had bad memories of Grimmauld Place, tainted by his own less than stellar family. But for Harry, whose summers had previously involved being locked away either in a cupboard or Dudley's second room--with bars on the windows, no less--it was perfect.
---
With Sirius free from Azkaban and taking up his role as Harry's guardian, Voldemort pursuing a political path to power rather than bloodshed, and a defense teacher that isn't actively trying to kill him for once, Harry has high hopes for his third year at Hogwarts. It'll be nice to sit back and be a kid for once.Only Harry's life is never so simple, and he soon finds himself facing a myriad of new challenges: school bullies and new family dynamics, horcruxes all but falling into his lap, his deja-vu brain giving him mixed signals, and hidden murmurs arising from old Death Eater circles that may pose a threat to him regardless of his tentative alliance with Voldemort. Things seem destined to never be easy, but if there's one thing Harry knows by now, it's that he won't have to do it alone.

Summary
He feels shaky and unbalanced. It’s awful. He stumbles to the faucets. Presses his hands on the cold tile of the porcelain sink. Looks into the mirror at his pallid face. His eyes are just a shade lighter—from black to something like brown—like his original dark eyes had begun to bleed…amber.
In which Sirius's prank meets fatal results, but instead of the afterlife, Severus finds himself back in First Year. Unfortunately, he also finds that Time cannot cure lycanthropy.
