Right. Brain R Die. I might try rewriting Look for the good Instead, but it's officially dropped. If anyone wants it, feel free.

(challenges stay up though)

Up for the challenge?

If you actually write or have seen one of these, please tell me!

Challenge #1: Raising Voldemort

Voldemort went back in time (however you want it) to the late 1920's to raise Tom Riddle in his own image and as the perfect seemingly-pureblood heir to the Slytherin line.

- Tom must find out about the prophecy at some point, and Voldy must actually know it.
- Tom probably shouldn't actually be named Tom Riddle (or not be known as such) because Voldemort would more likely than not change his name so he wouldn't be named after a filthy muggle.
- Harry can NOT have come back as well by some freak accident.
- It cannot be a "evil is good" story, Voldemort must be genuinely bad.

Challenge #2: (blank) of the BWL

Harry is the BWL. We know this, he knows this... but what if he wasn't? What if Harry was the mess up, the false BWL, and his brother/sister/dog was really the one who took down Voldemort? Mostly just a "Brother of the BWL" from the perspective of the supposed BWL.

- Harry must actually be like our Harry, as in moody, kind of panicky at times, stupidly brave, etc. Not the spoiled brat that the false BWL always is.
- Cannot be a Ginny pairing (I hate Ginny). Perhaps Luna? I like Luna :P
- Maybe the real BWL should actually go dark? Or Harry will when he finds out he isn't the real one? Just ideas.

Challenge #3: Professor Potter

Not a Harry is a Professor, but James and/or Lily end up teaching Harry at Hogwarts, either in a "taken through time", "brought back to life", or "they never died but were still kept from Harry muahahaha" way.

- Must be a James/Lily pairing (even if one is dead), or, if you only bring back Lily, maybe Lily/Snape (if you want to).
- Canon Harry (for the most part - canon through at least book 5, so Sirius was at least believed dead for a while, maybe they return the year after Voldy's demise?)
- Harry can't immediately be like "oh yayz I have parents! I can be normal!" because that isn't Harry
