Looking for a story where Harry finds a brochure that is inviting muggleborns and half-bloods to a small magic school for a summer program for different courses and he gathers up a bunch of people to attend. I can't remember if the school is run by the crown or not. I also vaguely remember that the Headmistress of the school was either shocked or surprised by getting a letter from harry

I don’t remember much, however I know it was either Tony Stark was the romantic interest or father of Harry. Somewhere in the story Harry berates Steve for basically almost killing Tony in when he cracked his arc and crippled Rhodey. I also believe it’s complete. 🫣

I know it’s not much to go on but thanks in advance.

Ok I know this can apply in many ways and some more serious than others. But I'm specifically talking about when an author expresses an opinion on an in universe thing (Quidditch) through a certain character who canonically likes/is for that thing.

If it isn't obvious what this sort of rant is about by now I'll make it quick for people not willing to read paragraphs about my annoyance. I absolutely hate it when people diss Quidditch through Harry. Look, I get it. I think quidditch is stupid, I also don't like writing about it, I think it's boring and I certainly express that through characters like Hermione. What I don't like is when Harry-I fell in love with quidditch at first sight-Potter is the one being used to say that quidditch makes no sense. It's more of a personal preference that makes me click off a fic than anything else though.

So now here comes the discussion part. Does this bother anyone else and/or are there any other things like this that bother you?

Hi everyone,

I've just released a new chapter of "In the Shadow", my little sister fanfic in which Harry's younger sister and Draco Malfoy's younger sister navigate their way through Hogwarts. Any feedback or advice would be greatly appreciated! :)

(Especially any advice regarding tags for AO3, I'm still new to it! :) )

"Everyone knew the story of Harry Potter, The Boy Who Lived, who vanquished You-Know-Who that night at Halloween. A name that went down in wizarding history for generations to come. What did not go down in the history of that night was that his younger sister was also there.

Now it's Hazel's turn to attend the world famous Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry where she'll have her own adventures and make her own friends. In particular, she will cross paths with the younger sister of her brother's hated enemy, Draco Malfoy. She will forge a path in a world where her name and her brother are more famous than she is and prove that even in the shadow of The Boy Who Lived, she has a role to play in the fight against the coming darkness."

Basically, fics where the Golden Trio is intact and in Gryffindor, and each is dating a person from Slytherin (or at least two of the Trio are).

I've just read a Harry/Daphne + Ron/Tracey fic, and thought it would be fun to see another fic where there's a focus on the Golden Trio all dating Slytherins

Despite its size, Malfoy Manor was packed. Between the Death Eaters, Greyback and his followers, and Voldemort himself, they had managed to fill every available inch of space. Things were especially cramped now that everyone had gathered around a table to listen to their Dark Lord, who sat at its head.

One man stood out from the rest. Rather than the dark robes favoured by the other attendees, he wore Muggle clothes and stood beside Voldemort, attracting all sorts of curious glances. With a small gesture, Voldemort motioned for Lucius Malfoy to begin.

"Now that we are all gathered here," he began, "I would like to introduce you to a visitor from the United States of America."

The portly man, dressed in jeans and a flannel shirt, nodded and offered a small smile.

"Mister Calhoun represents a number of American wizards who share our views on blood purity and how wizarding society ought to function. We hope that, by cooperating, we can benefit one another."

"That's right. Thank you, Mister Malfoy, for the introduction," Calhoun replied cheerfully, speaking with a thick Texan accent that this ESL author won't even attempt to render phonetically. "In America, we don't have the longstanding tradition of dark magic you guys have over here, but for the last few decades, some of us have taken exception to-"

The man launched into a tirade about everything he found unacceptable regarding skin colour, ancestry, and who was and wasn't supposed to be a wizard. The Death Eaters largely agreed with him, even if they privately considered his upbringing little better than a Mudblood's. Still, they all understood that overseas support would greatly strengthen their position, at least until the day they no longer needed it.

When the American finally finished, wiping sweat from his reddened forehead after working himself into a frenzy over African wizards having children with European witches, Voldemort rose and placed a cold hand on his shoulder.

"Narcissa," he called, "show Mister Calhoun to his quarters and make sure he has everything he needs during his stay. We expect to see a great deal of him until our cooperation with his people is firmly established."

And so Calhoun became Malfoy Manor's newest squatter.

Days passed, and soon most of the Death Eaters were beginning to wonder whether American support was worth the trouble. Compared with the traditions and behaviour of the old families, the newcomer talked and acted almost like a Muggle. He shook hands and patted people on the back. He talked about Muggle sports, since Quidditch apparently wasn't a thing across the pond, and he rarely used magic, preferring to ask the Malfoys' house-elves to perform most tasks. When he wasn't talking about baseball, he was ranting about race, genetics, and the good old days.

At the same time, Calhoun seemed to be growing increasingly frustrated with his stay. Whenever more serious matters came up, he would frown and shake his head at the Death Eaters' plans and proposals. He seemed to dislike Bellatrix Lestrange most of all, sometimes rudely walking out of meetings whenever she showed up. The feeling was mutual, and only the possibility of incurring Voldemort's displeasure stopped Bellatrix from cursing the American every time she encountered him.

By the end of the week, things finally came to a head when Voldemort summoned everyone to discuss their progress.

Before even half the Death Eaters had arrived, Calhoun got right up in the Dark Lord's face.

"I joined you so I could be racist, not to chase a teenager all over Britain, Voldemort!" he shouted angrily. "I don't give a flying fuck about this Harry fella, and neither do any of my associates!"

Bellatrix sprang forward before Voldemort could even open his mouth.

"HOW DARE YOU SPEAK TO THE DARK LORD THAT WAY!" she shrieked, her wand already pointed at him. "It's about time someone taught you some manners, you foul excuse for a wizard!"

A deafening bang erupted through the room.

Calhoun stood with a smoking revolver in his left hand, a fresh hole in his pocket, and his wand drawn in his right. The Death Eaters closest to him could barely hear him shout a spell before their hearing suddenly returned.

"Shut the fuck up! Shut the fuck up! SHUT THE FUCK UP!" he screamed, his face red with rage, as Bellatrix collapsed to the floor, clutching her stomach with both hands. "This bitch I swear! I knew this was a fucking mistake! I'm fucking leaving!"

"No, you are not," Voldemort stated calmly, drawing his own wand.

Calhoun pointed the revolver at Voldemort, but a slight flick of the Dark Lord's wrist caused the gunpowder inside the weapon to explode, mangling the American's hand. No one else dared intervene as Voldemort and Calhoun engaged in a duel.

The American was hopelessly outmatched. Within seconds, he made a mistake and left himself open to an Avada Kedavra that sent him dropping to the floor like a sack of potatoes.

"It seems our negotiations with the Americans have failed. Someone, see to Bellatrix."

Narcissa Malfoy rushed to help her sister, who was bleeding out, all the while cursing the man for daring to hurt her with a filthy Muggle weapon.

Then dark smoke began pouring from Calhoun's corpse.

A few cries of shock alerted Voldemort, who had already begun leaving the room. When he turned around, the smoke had coalesced into something resembling a Dementor or a ghost.

"Oh, for fuck's sake," the apparition cursed in Calhoun's voice. "Now I have to glide all the way back!"

"How is this possible?" Bellatrix muttered, blood seeping from her mouth.

"What do you mean? You guys don't have Horcruxes? What kind of amateur dark wizard organisation is this?! How are you going to war without Horcruxes? Every dark wizard worth his salt in America has one!"

The shade then turned towards Bellatrix and gasped.

"Oh, shit! Someone get her some medical attention, or she'll die for real!"

Voldemort rubbed his temples in frustration as he realised that Calhoun's current form was beyond his ability to destroy, unless he somehow managed to find and destroy the man's Horcrux, which could be hidden anywhere in America.

He also disliked how casually Calhoun talked about Horcruxes, which were supposed to be his own secret trump card.

"No self-respecting wizard would lower himself to using one of these," Voldemort snapped, nudging the revolver aside with his foot.

"You kidding? Muggles wear shoes and underwear. Am I supposed to run around barefoot with my dick out? Back in the U.S. of A., every Muggle has one of these nowadays. Of course we use them too! Shit, I don't even know how to cast Avada Kedavra! Why bother learning it when you've got one of these?"

Calhoun paused for a moment.

"Wait, you tried to kill me for real, Voldemort?!" his soul exclaimed as he pieced everything together. "Man, you're a real asshole. I'm going back home, and I'm telling everyone that Britain is done for. The boss is a snake-looking weirdo obsessed with a teenager who beat him as a baby, you pure-blooded inbreds are all insane, I knew what you thought of me because you're all shit at Occlumency, and you've got filthy werewolves running around everywhere!"

A Death Eater approached Calhoun and removed his mask, revealing a dark-skinned face that bore a striking resemblance to Paapa Essiedu.

"If you have nothing else to add, I-" Snape began, only to be interrupted by the shade.

"Okay, that fucking does it. Mail me back my wand, or I swear that next time, instead of a revolver, I'll Apparate a nuclear bomb right onto your sorry asses. And Voldy? If you had a gun, you wouldn't have lost to a baby. A fucking baby, for the love of-"

With that, the shade flew away due west, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fucking Yanks," Voldemort muttered. "You heard the man. Someone get an owl or something to send his wand back."

Personally think that the Witches Council from Sabrina the Teenage Witch has more interesting punishments for magic abuse than HP universe (travel ban, Azkaban, wand snapped).

Don’t take this too seriously, as this was posted mostly due to imagining Voldemort being turned into a cat or other animal like Salem was and imagining what punishments would be given to other famous Dark Lords/Ladies, Death Eaters or even Harry when he was put on trial.
Thoughts?

Hi everyone! I'm looking for a fanfic where a werewolf with links to an auror finds out about young Remus being bitten by Fenrir Greyback and actively help Lyall care and protect Remus.

It’s not the main plot but a sub plot.

Hi,hoping this tickles some brains and someone can help me find this fic. I've been looking for this story on Google searches and even had chat gpt searching. The main gist of this. Harry Potter fanfiction is that Harry is. I think descended of some champion or is a champion or Avatar for someone. A goddess or something Hermione is descendant of a goddess Luna I think is descended of the Fae. Harry and Hermione are in some other realm and there's a goddess that they have to try and impress like they have to go through some sort of challenge to prove their worthiness. Or it could be just Harry having to do it. But I'm remembering both Harry and Hermione. And then there's this whole other side story of some kind of mirror traveling that Harry can do. And I think Hermione can tag along and he mirror travels to talk to padfoot in grimmauld place. And there's a scene with a baby sleeping in a crib and a woman maybe Andromeda Tonks sleeping on a cot in the bedroom in case the baby wakes up and Harry somehow appearing in a mirror or a painting and calling for pad foot. And there's also a scene where he uses the mirror to go into Ginny's bedroom in Grimald place because he and Hermione have to figure out how to do some kind of mind-healing to heal her mind from the effects of having been possessed by Voldemort. While there and contemplating how to heal Ginny's mind in the dreamscape in her dreams. Basically Luna shows up and gives Harry advice on how to do it but doesn't stick around. I don't think it's post Hogwarts. I think it might be 4th or fifth year.

There might also be some kind of Prophecy about Harry Hermione and Luna

Chapter 28. Part 1 of the BIG FINALE of my HP Zombie Apocalypse story is now up!

As always this story is basically pre-Harmony, however they are good friends now!

Hopefully the link will work. If not my Ao3 handle is DefiantDreamlandStudent.

Hey! So this one has been done before but like 4 years ago, and not quite like this.

I'm looking for any and all Lord Harry (Potter or Black or Slytgerin ect.) that's finished or currently updating and has decent lore building.

Ships? Any.

Power fantasy? Sure!

Self Promote? Welcome!

My only rule is NO incest(/pseudo insest) and NO underage sex. Complete Icks for me.

Lets see what you've got!

Hestia Carrow x Terence Higgs (YES, they both are canon, minor Slytherin characters in the HP universe, and also yes, it's purely just headcannoning their personalities and relationship). I don't know what possessed me to think two completely random background Slytherin characters should become a couple (given that they don't even canonically interact), but it's the Harry Potter fandom for a reason.

to make me feel rare / hp rarepair headcanons

I'm also open to writing requests of other rare pairs :D

I'm kinda new in the hp community and i'm looking for some fics. I'm looking for mostly anything that isn't omega verse, where the one of the main pairing isn't a creature or mpreg.
pairing wise i like drarry, pansmione or anything with theo nott.
Also, i like it when the fics are longer so like 90k+ words. i am mostly reading on ao3 but anything other than wattpatt is ok.
Thank you <333

I need help finding a fic I read a few years ago and can’t find again. It was a Severus mentors Harry fic, starting as Oclumency Lessons and expanding to more (i.e. talking about life, experiences). A big part of the lessons took place in a potions lab outside of Hogwarts (it was Grimmauld I think). The progression of Snapes character and the beginning understanding between Snape and Harry took some time and several oclumency lessons/Snape learning more about Harry.
I know it’s not much but maybe it’s ringing the bell for someone.

I truly mean death is a repeat visitor. Sirus dies, Cedric dies, Luna dies, Hermione or ron dies, background characters die, colin dies, hell hagrid dies, draco dies, narcissa dies, greyback dies etc

Just fics where things go south. Harry gets a GF she dies, he gets another she dies

Bonus point if the year is also accurate. I feel like ppl keep forgetting the fact that it the 40s so no tom riddle would absolutely not go around in skinny jeans😭😭

Can someone recommend a good female malfoy fanfic (preferably completed or close so I can binge read)

I always enjoy reading a scene where someone questions someone to see if they’re really who they say they are, and the other surrounding characters would tense at this.

Harry isn’t a true obscurial but his magic is a black form separate from him and sentient on its own. I’m pretty sure the fic is complete and on AO3, and I think it’s Gen. Here are the scenes as I remember them:

- Harry does not go to Hogwarts

- Harry starts out in the cupboard and can see his magic, a dark shadow that has a mind of its own. It does things that get him in trouble but it never helps him when he needs it. He’s resentful of it.

- Harry ends up in gringotts somehow. They accept that he’s not a wizard because doesn’t have wizard magic. They let him stay there.

- They get someone who can help him guide his magic, which is wild and untamed - Hagrid. He is also not fully human so he’s more or less accepted by the goblins. He helps Harry communicate and get to know his magic which often takes the form of animals like a raven

- he trains to be able to merge with his magic and he ends up being able to become the Raven, he can learn to manipulate his form so he is human with wings

- he practices stretching his magic and is able to send a small tether of the shadow to Hogwarts to listen and talk to the headmaster? I think he sends it out looking for the most magical part of the castle looking for the headmasters office but bumps into the chamber of secrets without realizing it

- I’m pretty sure this is a wbwl where Harry was abandoned for being a squib, but when Voldemort is resurrected he permanently injures the twin so suddenly the Order care about Harry and want him to join the fight. I don’t remember much about this arc but in the end he ends up healing for his brothers sake because he was also a victim of his parents. One of the lead scenes is him flying into the hospital wing to perch on his twin’s bed. His parents come and the see him and want to talk, but he flies away.

For the life of me I can’t find this fic! I might be mixing up multiple fics but if any of this sounds familiar I’d appreciate any suggestions!

Now first is a recommendation (he’s a) maneater by ramabear. Is actually so good it’s got great morally grey Harry Potter. Harry isn’t the boy who lived its Neville and it’s done really well, and it’s got pureblood culture. I’ve read the most popular Harry/theo fics but some more niche ones would be great ao3 or fanfiction.net if possible?

Summary: When orphaned muggleborn Harry stumbles across a rumour as old as Hogwarts itself, he realises that it might not be a rumour at all.

Pairing: Harry-Daphne

So, lookin for a fic with this kinda ‚tone‘ and I’m sure it’s not super hard to find, but I’m wondering if yall have any that immediately come to mind—

I really wanna read something where Severus and Harry are dealing with eachother, maybe come to a truce or the like, when Snape gets in a fit and crosses a giant, red taped with flashing stop signs, boundary, and then has to later confront his serious (ha) fuck up. Even better if it has to do with Harry’s childhood, and trauma from that, etc.

Bonus points for a good characterization, but not necessary. A girl can dream after all lol
