Sorry - she's got a whole lot of stuff that semi-fits your prompts! The Two Households series is based around this:That very first day on the Hogwarts Express, Harry shook Draco Malfoy's hand and became a Slytherin. Ron has hated him ever since. But Harry doesn't hate Ron ....
The Checkmate series starts with a story based on this: Hufflepuff Harry makes a rash bargain with Slytherin Ron and contains a full set of living Marauders with Sirius/Remus. Have a poke around and see what appeals!
James and Lily are still dead, but Remus and Sirius raise Harry. It's long. Books and books long.
In "Stealing Harry", Harry is too young for Hogwarts. In the sequels, "Laocoon's Children" he's sorted into Slytherin. Sam stopped writing the series in the middle of book 3.
It really is daunting and big, took me a while to sit down and say to myself that I should at least try it. I didn't regret it - it was fabulous and I thoroughly recommend it also.
I don't think he would've been in slythering. With the knowledge of the houses and all and James being so proud of Gryffindor, I mean can you imagine him always talking about how great it was? But I don't know... maybe. I imagine James and Sirius with fake smiles but theirs insides burning. Lily and Remus would still be proud of Harry.
Well, by the epilogue I assume that most people brought up in the wizarding world don't know you can argue with the hat the only reason Harry was unable to was because he was unaware of this belief, y'know? Doing the impossible because you don't know it's impossible is a fantasy genre cliche sometimes. Having been brought up in the wizarding world he may have just sat down and waited to be sorted. (Harry may also have had a less volatile reaction to Draco, because being brought up by Lily and James, he would have had less contact with, and therefore less aversion to, Dudley.)
And basically Harry in canon was told Slytherin is synonymous with evil, then Malfoy confirmed that. If he was around the Marauders and Lily he would encounter a lot of anti-Slytherin prejudices, but there still might be a couple of words from Lily standing up for Snape (of the "he was on our side" kind) and maybe Andromeda, I think she was a Slytherin, as she wasn't blasted from the family tree until she married Ted Tonks. So although he would know hisfamily
( ... )
You're right, Harry would've had his fathers influence over how great gryffindor is and his mother's words about Slythering being not so bad. Anyways it would be cool to read about Harry picking on gryffindors and hufflepuffs, Lily sending him letters saying: it would be nice if Prof.Mcgonagall would not send us warnings about your behavior this week.

The writing is excellent. This is classic stuff.
