Summary: How would things have played out if it wasn't known that Harry was the boy who lived? What if the night the Potters died, Harry was found elsewhere in Godric's Hollow and it was assumed that Harry survived only because Voldemort didn't get to him due to the interference of Lily Potter and the scar was caused by injuries in the destruction? How would the Potions Master of Hogwarts deal with a Harry Potter who was nothing like he expected, quiet and shy especially when he's sorted into his house and it becomes evident that something is wrong with the boy?

Summary: "A more or less temporary disorder of mental facilities, as in fever, disturbances of consciousness, or intoxication characterized by restlessness, excitement, delusions, hallucinations etc." *taken from dictionary.com

What if Harry didn't handle the events following the Triwizard Tournament as well as he did in the books or as calmly? What would happen if he could no longer keep the facade of bravery and stoicism as he did following the confession by Barty Crouch and broke down when he thought he was alone and Snape came across him in this state?

Can be played with as you like and be as a one-shot or multi-chapter story. How things play out is up to you but the story must fit the parameters of the definition and come into play. Can take place after incident in Hospital Wing, Croch's confession, PostGOF or PreOOTP

Summary: Snape left on a sabbatical the year Harry starts at Hogwarts. In turn, Harry ends up sorted in a House that is not Gryffindor.

What reaction would Harry's sorting have on the rest of the school? Would the Gryffindors feel spurned? The Slytherins justified in bullying a 'weak Hufflepuff'? What would the reactions be if Harry ended up in Ravenclaw or Slytherin?

But, most important of all, what impact would a different sorting of Harry have on Snape, and how would their relationship develop because of it?

Summary: Lily is still alive but won't have anything to do with Severus. Soon her child is about to start Hogwarts. As Harry's teacher, Severus can either soften Lily's heart through Harry's adoration of a favourite professor, or force her to come to school through Harry's bad behaviour. Which does he pick? If he picks the latter, how does he engineer Harry's mischief? Can he do both? Does he feel anything for Harry or is he using him? Snape must be manipulative.

Summary: After Sirius' untimely death, Harry grows weary of Dumbledore's manipulations and vows to himself that he will never work for him again. While spending the summer alone in his room, Voldemort slowly drives him to the brink of insanity with dreams and visions, promising Harry that it will all stop if he becomes a Death Eater. Too stubborn to try and get help, Harry eventually gives in and receives a Dark Mark and a terrible assignment to complete during his next school year...

Severus witnesses the event and is unable to stop it without giving himself away. What happens next is up to you.

Summary: Harry, as we all know always has the Gryffindor courage (or stupidity, if you asked Snape) to call Voldemort by name. Why not go as far as cursing with his name then? The challenge is to write any story that has Harry say "Damn it, Tom!", the more people who witness him say this, the better. Don't forget their reactions!
