I yearned for a fic where Diary Tom Riddle doesn’t get destroyed (+coming out successfully) BUT instead of seeking knowledge by going outside across the world(or just hiding himself from the true host) as many fics do, he actually continues attending Hogwarts with Harry knowing him

Rec Request

Aka “Diary Tom in Harry’s Hogwarts years”

I know this is a weird request and it doesn’t make any sense for Diary Tom who is attending Hogwarts even though he is still 16, but while I saw plenty of time travel Tom went to Harry’s era, or Diary Tom successfully got out and left Hogwarts

I want to see diary Tom learning some new things around this era too, especially Hogwarts it’s interesting to me as a boy born in a depressing time who was popular among everyone back in the day, now he's starting as a total stranger in this “new” era with his future prophesied nemesis. (Or, in the short term, give Tom another chance, I guess?) Their dynamics don't have to be completely enemies if they started to get close after the Chamber, just Tom is a witness to see what Harry had through shit in each year 😂😂

I don't mind if it's a serious, angst, fluff, or cracks but I don't recommend any fic when they had “Dark Harry” or any bashing of light side characters, after that it’s fine to me 🥰
