[[[Filling in an old abandoned story. I can't access the backend of my previous account, so I'm moving the story here.]]]
Original blurb below
“Remember, pronouncing your spells correctly is very important too. Never forget the wizard Baruffio, who said ‘S’ instead of ‘F’ and found himself lying on the floor with a bison standing on his chest!”
Professor Flitwick
A botched spell sends Harry Potter back to the summer of 1978.
In the British Wizarding World of 1978, much has already happened, but much has not.
...What would you do if you seemed to know the future?

(2) Main pairing: SBHP.
(3) Lots of original characters.
(4) More warnings to come if I think of any.
Theme: Making up for some of the regrets of the original story.
Thank you sister for your comment! Regarding Peter, I feel that there may be some ambiguity in my previous expressions. I am not saying that he is an innocent ordinary person who was "forced" to become a Death Eater due to cowardice and not being strong enough - I just said that Peter is not like Voldemort. He is not a natural sociopath, nor is he even a bloodist. Of course, he is not as strong and noble as his friends, and he has his own little calculations, but in the final analysis, these are still within the scope of a normal person. If there was no Voldemort, if he lived in a relatively peaceful society, it should have been possible for him to live this life as an ordinary person. In Peter's teenage years, he, James and Sirius became an Animagus together. The original book said that "even Peter succeeded with the help of James and Sirius." This seems to give people the impression that as long as there are two geniuses, James and Sirius, it is not difficult to become an Animagus - but in fact I don't think it is that easy. In the third part, when Professor McGonagall talked about Peter in The Three Broomsticks, she regretted that she had "been so impatient with him" and even choked with tears. But after watching the entire HP series, I think everyone knows what Professor McGonagall is like as a teacher. Her love for students is almost as much as Principal Dumbledore. To make her feel impatient meant that Peter had more than just a lack of talent in transfiguration. It was very likely that, according to Professor McGonagall's evaluation criteria, he was one of those "unsalvageable" students. For such a person who wants to become an Animagus, the despair he has experienced in the process and the hardships he has to endure are probably beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Then, why did he work so hard to become an Animagus? Sirius scolded him in the Shrieking Shack because he "just likes to hang around those powerful people", so many fan authors also speculated that he was forced to do so. They felt that if he didn't become an Animagus, he would be kicked out of the small circle of James and others. Without the friendship of these three people, life in the future would probably be difficult. But I personally think it's not like this: James was already in the third grade when he discovered that Remus was a werewolf. After three years of getting along, Peter's relationship with the other three people was undoubtedly relatively close - he even knew that Remus was a werewolf, and he had the choice of "do you want to become an Animagus with them?" - This is no longer the case. If he hadn't become an Animagus, James and others probably wouldn't have been so alienated from him. It might be a little difficult to become closer than before, but at least it would be much better than ordinary friends. If Peter and James and others were friends just to find a strong friend to rely on, then I think this level should be enough. The reason why he is willing to overcome all kinds of difficulties and become an Animagus is probably to keep up with his friends, and to give as much strength as he can for his friends. So I said in my speech that I think he really regarded James and others as friends at the beginning, and this friendship was not false. ——But after graduation, the situation is different. After graduation, Peter joined the Order of the Phoenix with his friends. I believe that at the beginning, his thoughts should be similar to when he became an Animagus for Remus - he was willing to stand with his friends and work hard for the right things, even if he had to experience some dangers for it. But when the situation becomes worse and worse, when Voldemort's power grows step by step, when even Dumbledore cannot guarantee the safety of every member of the Order of the Phoenix, when victory or defeat seems to be a foregone conclusion... I think Peter's feeling at that time may be similar to standing on a big ship that is destined to sink: he knows that it will sink, but at the same time, he also knows that he cannot He may persuade his friends to "abandon ship" with him to escape. At this time, should he stay on the ship for the sake of those friends who have decided to die, waiting for it to sink and wait for death to come; or should he abandon his friends and abandon the ship alone to escape - even if his "abandoning ship" behavior will lead to the death of his friends in advance? Obviously, Peter chose the latter. But this decision was not easy to make. In Lily's letter to Sirius, she mentioned that "Xiao Chong has been low energy and low mood recently." I have forgotten the original words in the original book, but in short, Peter was in a relatively "wilted" state at the time. I guess he must have had many hesitations and hesitations in his heart. He felt painful betraying his friends and watching them die, but in the end, he still "didn't want to die with them." I don't know if this is a kind of courage. In my opinion, it may be more like a "decision" made for one's own "survival". And some decisions once made cannot be turned back: after James and Lily died, Sirius went after Peter. At this time, in Peter's own opinion, he "had" to kill dozens of innocent Muggles, and "had" to frame Sirius, because if he didn't, he would have to go to Azkaban, and his life would be worse than death - Sirius might even let him not even have the chance to go to Azkaban, and maybe kill him on the spot. ——He had previously decided to abandon James and others for his own survival, so of course he could frame Sirius, who had been abandoned by him, in order to continue to live. And after that, he did not even deserve to be a human being. He would rather be the pet of the Weasley family for more than ten years, and then go back to find Voldemort. All kinds of evil are basically based on this logic: I have done so much in order to survive. In this case, it doesn't matter if I do more.
In fact, I think if the Death Eaters really approached Peter and wanted him to be an undercover agent, they wouldn't have let him go back alive after he refused, right? Is the plot a bit deliberate in depicting Peter as being loyal before betraying him??
Oh, let's review it again. This book has really been with me since I grew up. From junior high school to now I have been working for three years. I even changed my Jinjiang account with Qinghuahua. Qinghuahua, please give me an outline if you really quit. I can make up my own mind 😭 😭 😭 😭
Fell into a pit~ The author is not good at writing and doesn't have a finished article. The articles in the author's column are all being serialized
I once saw an analysis. The 11-year-old Wormtail was full of courage and hope when he was elected to the Lion House. He was full of expectations for the future.
I couldn't help but read it again. The original novel really didn't have much to eat, and there were very few articles that weren't OOC.
Prejudice towards "now" - Are Snape and Pedro's lines about to fluctuate?
I read this in one breath. My wife wrote it so well. It fits the original work so well. It gives me the feeling of meeting old friends again.
Oh, isn't the best thing about fandoms just the rescue? It's great.
Thanks for your hard work!! This feels so good, I'm looking forward to the follow-up!!
