I don't remember much about it but harry is wolfstars bio son (stolen by Dumbledore given to jily) and his real name is Apollo lupin black

This is just a small part of the story where Harry turns into a cat and hangs around Nymphadora Tonks and her parents house, and she kinda adopts him. Like, she knows that Cat!Harry goes out of the house to hunt for food at night.

Tonks doesn't know that the Cat is Harry though

So, I am gonna write a fic where the MC is an OC, the personality will just be me but I let my intrusive thoughts win. So, I need help with what my golden finger should be or if I should even have any( and I don't trust myself to not make myself the strongest in chapter 1 ) If you have a suggestion for my golden finger and strating point, plssss tell. Thanks!

As Harry Potter stands in the ruins of Hogwarts, surrounded by the remnants of the final battle against Voldemort, a profound realization washes over him. Memories flood his mind, not of magical adventures, but of a much darker reality. He recalls the years of abuse and neglect, the isolation, the cruelty, the constant feeling of worthlessness. He remembers the cupboard under the stairs, the hunger, the bruises, the whispers of being unwanted. His aunt and uncle’s scornful faces. The way his cousin Dudley laughed as Harry was left out, mocked, and belittled. The more he looked back, the more painfully clear it became.

The memories he once clung to, the triumphs, the friendships, the world of magic, slowly began to unravel, revealing the stark truth beneath. In reality, Harry had never escaped the prison of his abusive childhood. The Hogwarts Express, the enchanted feasts, the laughter of Ron and Hermione, they were all manifestations of a desperate mind seeking refuge, a coping mechanism to escape the horrors of his pathetic existence, illusions born out of desperation for a better life, a desire to feel special, and a yearning to find meaning in his parents' untimely demise. Tears streamed down Harry's face as he realized the truth. He was never a special wizard destined for greatness. He was just a broken boy, lost in a world of make-believe.

The Dark Lord, Voldemort, was more than just a villain of his imagination—he was the embodiment of every fear Harry had internalized. The faceless evil of being unloved. The looming threat of worthlessness. Dumbledore, the wise, paternal figure, was Harry’s deepest wish, the loving protector he longed for in his darkest hours, the father figure his own father never got to be.

In the distance, he heard the voices of his magical friends calling his name. They urged him to come, to move forward with them. But they, too, were fabrications, his mind’s way of creating bonds where there were none. He knows now that he can’t follow. He’d lived too long in the shelter of his fantasies. With trembling hands and a shattered soul, Harry turned his back on the ruins of the imagined Hogwarts and walked into the wilderness, into a reality that had always been waiting for him.

The magical world he created dissolved behind him, and with it, the comforting delusion that he was ever special or destined for greatness. He was just a sad, lonely boy, no more than that. And now he was confronted with the cold, harsh reality of a life he never chose, forced to reconcile the painful truth with the fantasy he built to survive it. And as the mist closed in around him, Harry Potter was left not as the hero of a magical world, but as a lost, broken soul, searching for peace in a world that had never offered it to him.

was severitus, harry never went to howarts and At some point he became homeless, tired of the abuse from his uncles, He did not learn to read and has cognitive problems, as an adult he met Severus and he took him in at his house, eventually Draco arrives and then Remus, who becomes Severus' partner since Sirius never left Azkaban, I don't remember the name but I loved that fanfic because it was the perfect combination between Angust and Fluffy but I lost it and it stayed in my memory, I read it on Wattpad but I think it was translated from AO3, and I read it in Spanish If you know the name I will be forever grateful!! 😿

What are goods fics where Harry meets Cho instead of Ron first? I always dug this ship and was kinda rooting for it. Bonus points if Hermione is there too.

I'm writing a Snape fanfic. And I've come across two ideas of lovers.

While one acts greater, I want his words to mean less. So I ended up with "I will kiss your tears away" in my mind this lover sounds sweet but he'd still allow his lover to shed tears. This one has evil intentions.

The other acts crappy and has neutral intentions, slowly changing to good intentions. In my mind he'd say "I promise, I won't make you cry." which sounds suddenly better than the first part. Of course you can't keep a person from crying but the promise of it, already promises that this person will do above and beyond to not hurt the person, or at the very least not be the cause of those tears.

But am I reading into this too much?

Hi, so much of my hp fanfic consumption has been through the FFAWTFT pod. I know that even though they are ending soon, they are releasing their bonus episodes for the rest of the year according to their recent announcement.

Anyone know of any good hp fanfiction podcasts as someone who loves FFAWTFT? Can have a mix of hp fanfics too if they include HP, marauders, and FB

Okay, so I'm currently writing a fic on Ao3, its a hp reading the books fic, though it only has about four chapters out rn (and I'm not uploading this week because its my great grandmas funeral) but I'm planning to write at least the first book to the end.

I'll put the link (and description) below and then explain more about what it really is about:

Name: Reading the Harry Potter books- The Philosopher's stone

My account: Reg_Reads

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/61864621/chapters/158181055

Description: Characters reading the Harry Potter books starting with the philospher's stone.

And, okay, the description doesn't say much, but I feel as though it generally sums up the whole of what the fic will be about quite well.

So far there are only a few characters, and like four ships in total (Future Drarry, Future Wolfstar, Future ron/hermione and current Arthur/Molly weasley) and I'm not quite sure if the characters are acting like how they should.

BUT I hope to improve that in the future, considering the fact that this is the first fanfic that I have ever worked on.

AND nobody likes the Dursleys. That is literally the only good point i have about it right now 😭🙏

If someone were to read it, would you mind commenting your thoughts about it on either here or Ao3? And tell me what else you would like included in the fic and I will keep it in mind, thank you!

I see so many bashing fics, mostly HHr, that treat Ron as the scum of the earth, whether he's paid to be Harry's friend, or is secretly potioning Hermione, or is actually a Death Eater - do you guys have any recs for fics that are the opposite? I don't mind ships, but no minorxadult, please.

Hermione became the new Dark Lady, and Daphne went back in time to stop her after Harry was killed. The past version of Hermione was also in contact with her future self, and had Ron under an Imperius Curse. I don't remember the author or word count.

I haven’t written fanfiction in over a decade but after reading Riddle Manor, on Wattpad, I got inspired to try at it again.

I recently started, on Wattpad, the story Maid of Enchantment

It is a story without a love potion plot. Merope is a maid for the Riddle family, it features Merope giving her home and land over to the Riddles to begin a fresh start in life after the arrest of her father and brother.

It’s not ideal but she wants to experience life and try to find the good in the world for the first time in her life. She makes friends whom and discovers she is not the only person who has suffered in life while also learning what a true loving friendship and family is.

The Riddles label her just another servant, but they soon realize she has much more gifts than they thought, and it doesn’t involve her magic abilities.

The story features, mature content like:

Adult language Sexual content (eventually) Drug use Abuse of power, and mental, emotional, physical, and sexual abuse.

I’m not going to label it great because sometimes I have spelling and grammar mistakes. I think like a Ravenclaw (write as it comes into my head), but I haven’t mastered typing like a Ravenclaw meaning perfect).

Wanted to see if anyone was interested.

My username is Heyweasel1

The story title is Maid of Enchantment

Dumbledore keeps sending Harry to the Dursley's, even after he discovers access to Potter Manor. He has access to a house elf - Millie or Mipsy. When Dumbledore sends him back, he stays in his cupboard and the house of expands it, brings him food etc. Near the end of July, Petunia tells him to leave and the house elf transports him to Potter Manor. There's a gallery of Portraits, and they tell him about some of them being Necromancers. Harry has a familiar - a monitor lizard? Some large reptile. He bought the egg at Diagon Alley, and he can talk to it in Parseltongue He practices blood magic and transfiguration on his familiar who insists he only practice on her. He transfigures flippers once Harry is a Ravenclaw, and he doesn't really have any close friends. Quirrell tells him about Occulemncy and helps him study it. Quirrell sneaks some books like "the darker arts" into the couch cushions for Harry to find

I've read this story twice now. I wish to reread it because it is good in my opinion.

It's starts off with Hermione and Harry being on the run. The meet up with Ron, who turned to the Death Eaters. They kill Harry and Hermione. Harry accidentally becomes a master of death right before death. Hermione and Harry are sent back in time, the night before he faces the dragon. I'm trying to find it, and I can.

When a mysterious figure materializes in the heart of the Department of Mysteries, causing panic, Head Auror Harry Potter is summoned to investigate. He turns to his wife, Hermione, and her expertise in magical theory and arithmancy to help uncover a way to return the traveler to restore balance to the magical continuum. Fate and time are not on their side, and sending the traveler back would equal their demise.

I’ve been reading HP fanfics for few years and I’m desperately searching for something new, ironically it means some older fanfics that were deleted or are not easily findable. Main character Harry, pairing really does not matter, but please keep it hetero or harem 😂 I would love to see independent and cunning Harry, maybe some interesting magic, there can also be time travel fic where

The first was clearly different from the other two, as it looked like a hairless tiny wrinkly humanoid, with long floppy ears and dressed in what looked like a dirty pillow case. The other two looked starkingly different. They were both tiny humanoids with 4 fingers and grey skin, with . Both having there own style, though both wore the same grey cap. The first he noticed seemed to be a male as he distinctly had a small orange goatee and curly orange hair. He also wore simple grey trousers.

The others small creature seemed to be female with shoulder length black hair with a blue streak in it. Her style could only be described as punk rocker. She was also leaning on what seemed to be a wand with a dragons head at what he assumed was the front.

Harry carefully and quietly closed his door behind him.

"Who and what are you?" Harry questiond. The female spoke up first.

"I'm Vexy." The male spoke up next. "And I'm Hackus." Vexy continued. "And we're what is known as the Naughties."

Harry meets The Naughties who are sent by a dying Gargamel to find the next wielder of the Dragon Wand. With the wand, Vexy used it to cast a simple spell that tied up Dobby. She convinced Harry to lie to the house Elf by Hopping onto his shoulder and whispering that If he didn't get rid of Dobby, then she felt as if the house elf might do something extremely stupid.

Once Dobby leaves, Harry would take a seat at his desk as Vexy and Hackus would hop on the desk with the Dragon Wand in vecys small hands.

Harry gently took the wand and felt such a strange feeling pass through him. The wands eyes glowed red as it synced up to his magical core.

Harry would make friends with the Naughties and they'd become his new partners in crime for creating pranks at Hogwarts. Harry would also become very good friends with Luna Lovegood.

Smurfs, Naughties age simarly compared to Wizards and Witches.

Ships: Harry x Vexy and Luna x Hackus.

(just to be clear, Vexy and Hackus are 12, the same age as Harry and any romance at all, wouldn't be happening until there older.)

For the pairings I want something never done before as it could bring a uniqueness to the Story.

Also I imagine a scene where Malfoy mocks Harry for not Having a girlfriend and therefore no date to the Yule Ball, only to later find all his hair products and cleaning essentials have been swiped, his hair dyed red during the night and his robes replaced with second hand plain school robes. It's Malfoys biggest fear... Looking like a pauper or aka a Weasley. Of course Harry would take Vexy to the dance and thank her for what she did to Malfoy.

Hi I really don’t have much to go on I had saved this fic at one point but I think I deleted it by accident and have been looking for it for like a year or so now. Anyways what I remember is it takes place after the second war. The ministry and dumbledore turn on Harry. It was like a dumbledore wrote a letter that the ministry was to receive after Harry defeated Voldemort saying that he must die for whatever reason. The ministry takes him into the Department of mysteries and sends him through the veil as like a death sentence. Didn’t get much further than that all I know was in the description he doesn’t die. Dunno if he wakes up in the past I’ve seen fic like that or what happens but I’d like to find out if anyone recognizes this. Have a lovely day thanks for your time.

I wrote this as a comment but wanted to post it too because I've been seeing a lot of discussions around manacled that are making me mad. A lot of these people haven't even finished the book??? Or are 200 pages in, which is a lot of pages but it's only 20% of the book. There are a lot of sensitive and triggering themes such as rape/non-consent, which have been misinterpreted in the worst way.

DO NOT READ IF YOU DONT WANT SPOILERS!!!!!

When you begin the story you're mislead to believe that draco is evil and on voldemort's side and that he hates hermione. You're mislead to believe that he wants her to have his child so that her memories are retrieved. Therefore, you're mislead to believe that he wants to rape her.

When this is happening, he only inserts from behind, refuses to touch her, and leaves as soon as he ejaculates. I want to make it clear that there's not ONE word which suggests that any of the characters are enjoying it. It's like putting 2 animals in a cage and wanting them to breed. After a while, draco is ordered to be less "detached" as its been 6 months and hermione is not getting pregnant, because magical pregnancies are more complex and require an attachment between the partners - which CLEARLY indicates the lack of willingness. The first time where she can SEE him, and he's able to touch her, he instantly goes to the bathroom and vomits after finishing because he despises it. It's also implied that he's taking a potion to increase his chances of ejaculating because he is NOT into it. This all happens before hermiones memories are retrieved. After she regains her memories she remembers that draco was working as a spy to provide information to the order. He wasnt on voldemorts side. Hermione was captured and draco had been looking for her for 2 years while she's being held captive. I really want to emphasise that this wasn't done to justify draco's actions. It was to show how much guilt and shame draco had felt while doing that to someone he loves. It was meant to demonstrate the devastating and inhumane effects of this war. It was mentioned many times that hermione was going to be in the breeding program either way. If he hadn't taken in hermione, someone else would have. it was either going to be him or someone else.

This is very dark, but sadly it's nothing that hasn't already happened in the history of the world. Draco never even wanted hermione to regain her memories of him because he was planning on sacrificing himself after helping her escape.

The way I see it, voldemort was going into dracos memory to ENSURE that he was having sex with her so that hermione would be pregnant. There was simply no other option. If he showed a sign of refusal then they would both die at the hands of voldemort in the most excruciating way. It would be the worst forms of torture and hermione would most likely just be handed to another deatheater as her memories were still important.

Draco felt so guilty that he never wanted hermione to remember their relationship and wanted her to hate him, so that maybe she could move on in the future.

I didn't want to read the book until I had these details honestly.

Going into the book I said to myself that there was no way I would ever enjoy a non-consent. But those themes aren't written or expressed to be romantic in any way. It's meant to be disgusting and terrifying.

The main thing I remember about the fic is that Harry had a "familiar of sorts that was like a baby dragon or something and came from his mind palace into the real world. I believe all of his main group end up getting one. I can't remember pairings or anything else.

I can’t seem to find a Harry/Luna fic I read last year. I was about Harry and Luna exchanging letters over the summer and it lead to dumbledor realizing he messed up and created a whole other house call 4 1/2 privet drive so Harry could live under the wards but not with his family. Hermione ends up with Fred or George if I remember correctly. I believe Luna has a crow/raven to carry her messages. Once they get back to hogwarts they send letters through envelopes and travel through tin cans on strings that are portly that Luna’s ancestors set up.

Looking for recommendations where OC is a hogwarts professor Preferably grumpy x sunshine And one where Minerva features quite a lot is always lovely

What I am sure about: mc wanted to get a wand went to olivander, but olivanderz seeing he is undersge, below 11 years, didnt even listen and closer doors behind his nose, so he went to another wandmaker and got another wand.

What I thing i remeber that is from this Fic but i am not sure: he was reincarnated as harry potter, he a wand from different materials than orginal harry potter, I think testral hair and wood other than elder or feather of thunderbird or some crossbreed between thunderbird and pheonix with elder wood, or just that pheonix thunderbird crossbreed feather with other wood.

He later told someone else how he was treated by ollivander and his wand is good and there are other good wandmaker beside him so someone else also got wand from him, or it was even mamy people.

I just spotted i made a mistake in post title, is there a way to edit it?

"No friendship is an accident" - O. Henry

Remus Lupin, Sirius Black and Peter Pettigrew first make one friend, then two others, when they start Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. To Remus, his new friends present a challenge: how to keep his secret from them? To Sirius, his new friends change nothing: he has never needed anyone, and nobody is going to change that: not even James Potter. To Peter, his new friends seem to good to be true: after all, they are cool, and brave, and intelligent - above all, they are Gryffindors - and the sorting hat was not at all sure he was one.

James Potter makes friends easily - and even makes an enemy before the school term has officially started. He is exactly where he's meant to be: a Gryffindor at Hogwarts, with friends by his side and a castle to explore. It's a shame not every Gryffindor student is as great as his three new friends, but then again, Lily Evans isn't really a Gryffindor, is she?

This is the story of the Marauders, Lily Evans and Severus Snape as they start Hogwarts in 1971. This is part 1 of a 4 part series, and details the beginning of the marauders, all the way until the discovery of Remus' secret.

All I can remember is one scene where Bill Weasley flirts with Harry at the quidditch World Cup before realising that he is Ron's age? It may be a fix-it or Harry Potter is lord of many houses? Please help me find it again!

Hi guys, I've been posting a fic that's part of a series of mine for a few months now. Book 1 and 2 are complete and are being posted as written while following an update schedule (1 ch/week). Magic & Legends: Shifting (rated T, book 1) is part of a five book series, and it follows Alisa Berman, a shape-shifter, and her friends, Chloe and Elijah Perkins, and Jasper Scrivens. Majority cast are ocs along with some of the cannon characters like Hermione, Luna, and Neville working as Hogwarts professors (fic takes place in our day, almost 40 years post DH). The first book is very much an intro/getting to know the characters/development since it takes place in their 4th year when they are already friends. I'd like to hear your thoughts on this, and if there are critiques, I completely understand since it's my first fic/writing project.
