😈 🍓 tom being shorter than harry when they’re kids is so cute help
~“ We Parselmouths belong together.”~
Everyone knows Tom Riddle is an odd child. Some may even say disturbed. Mrs. Cole warned Albus profoundly of the strange things the boy says and does. She seemed especially scared of the "voice" that young Tom hears. Albus is prepared for a monster, he in not prepared for a little boy to tell him that he's in love with the ghost in his room. He is even less prepared to see that said ghost is an unknown Potter. Well.....this is strange.
Aka Harry goes to the past after being killed in the Battle of Hogwarts, unhappy he's not corporeal anymore, and the muggles can't see him. Also, he's apparently haunting Tom Riddle against his will. Said Tom Riddle is convinced they're soul mates and won't hear anything otherwise.
Ghost!Harry: god I wish I was still corporeal
Young!Tom: I will make you an indestructible body so we can be together properly forever and ever
Ghost!Harry: oh…oh no thank you
But in all seriousness - this is a brilliant idea! You could twist it in a MOD way - that Harry might be the master of death but that only applies to his soul being everlasting. His body is still mortal and could be destroyed. In a way, it even mirrors what happened to Voldemort, turning into a wraith, only Harry remains sane and whole.
He’s yeeted back in time and, just out of curiosity, wanders by Wool’s Orphanage one day. No one can see him - he’s tried - and his ability to interact with the corporeal world is…spotty at best.
But then little Tom Riddle sees him, and Harry. Well. Harry is desperate to just talk to someone by this point. It’s been weeks, months, since he’s had a conversation and he can feel himself slipping into something else the longer he goes without human contact.
If Tom Riddle is his only link to humanity (the fucking irony chokes him sometimes), then so be it.
He sticks to the kid, trying to act as a kind of conscious. Trying to impart some good qualities, some restraint, to the future Dark Lord.
His efforts are - well, they’re not not working, so that’s got to count for something?
On Tom’s part, his obsession with keeping his ‘imaginary friend’ with him forever grows steadily by the day.
nothing is better than crying in your enemy's lap
Gosh the art is beautiful. Anyone know a fic like this?
Had a whole prompt in my head I am too lazy to write and since I found some nice brushes, have some Aristocrat!Tom + Farmer/Servant!Harry :]]]
In which Harry is a powerful darling, and Tom is an obsessed and smitten psycho, just how we like him.
My submission for Riddle Fest 2023 🖤
Diary Tom and Harry sneaking into the forbidden forest so Tom can kiss Harry because he thinks it’s romantic to do it under the moonlight
This is canon and you can't convince me otherwise
Voldemort: *monologuing about how he killed his father because he hated him*
Lucius: *noticing the headstone says 'Tom Riddle' on it*
Lucius: Phew. He definitely won't mind that I lost his dad’s diary if he hates him this much. What a relief.
