Poll on Female MC Names I'm Toying With

Hi all! I'm working on a new Draco fanfic, but the MC is a character I'm creating. Draco is just her love interest and other OG Harry Potter characters will be main plot points, too.

I'm having trouble settling on a name for her. I'm between Aurora or Astrid. She is from a pureblood family and she is an absolute badass. She's an only child in her family, so she is supposed to be the son her father never had (but she is feminine and beautiful and smart, too). Any input is appreciated! Thanks!

Attention all writers!! I’ve just found this hack that helps so good with motivation (esp adhd)

This is definitely something that is probably very common and I’m only just realising but I feel like I have an obligation to share because I cannot be the only one who doesn’t know this.

I have adhd and one thing about writing that I find really difficult is that I can’t focus with songs in the background but I hate being in silence. I literally just found this Hogwarts ambience thing and I was like THIS IS PERFECT!! They have different ones for all different types of scenes. I’ll link it.

Looking for suggestions for what you'd like to see in a Harry Potter Rewrite of Harry's time at the Dursleys

So basically, Harry will spend his first two years of Hogwarts at the Dursleys in my rewrite, after he'll live with Sirius and Remus. But I'm unsure what to include in the time he's with his relatives. Also, the first book in my rewrite takes place from 2012 to 2013 and the second book from 2013 to 2014.

Dudley is 2 years older than Harry here and will have a little sister, who will go to school during the story of the cursed child (who is Harry's first adopted child, that's how they can be in Hogwarts at the same time).

There's a lot more to this rewrite, including little-known Harry Potter facts, which I have included/changed slightly to incorporate.

Sorry for any spelling mistakes, I'm really tired and really shouldn't post this right before taking a nap, but I know I'll forget about this entirely if I don't.

Also, I hope I picked the correct category, if not, I'll take this post down, and if it doesn't fit on this subreddit, I'll post this on Animo instead.

I REALLY wanna read this fanfic I just cannot remember the name of it. If someone could please help my brain would thank you.

Okay so I am looking for a HP fan fic where there is major Ginny, Ron, Hermione, Molly and Dumbles bashing.

Molly has been dosing her ole man with love potions, she stole him from her brothers, the other kids are her brothers but Ron is I believe Sirius' and Ginny is Dumbles. She ends up in jail for like a year I think, Ginny goes to live with her aunt and is "getting better" but in reality she wants Harry OR some other pureblood richy richy to take care of her. Ron is a lazy slob who only wants easy street and Hermione is just a psycho bitch who thinks she is better than everyone and wants his money.

I can't remember who Harry ends up with but I know its a m/m and he's incredibly intelligent. I also cannot for the life of me remember if he was raised with other OR if he finds out they are stealing from him. I do know, I don't believe he was Gryffindor, I believe he was a Raven, I also think that he ends up hating Sirius. This could also be a time travel kinda deal.

I wanna say that it could possibly be fuck your lemon drops but I don't think it is.... can anyone remember a fanfic like this??

random things,

pretty sure Ron is a thief and is called out, I think ginny ends up having a pregnancy scare and missus bones has to come and a bunch of boys have to take a test or something to make sure it isn't theirs, and I also think that she tries to say its Harry's.

Good longform time travel or self insert oc recs

Hiii I've been reading for harry potter for years now and I swear I've gotten through most fics that fit these specifications but I can't help trying to find more. I have a preference for marauders era stuff but I'm a fan of all era's, I don't care if they're ongoing, completed, OR abandoned I just need something novel length to sink my teeth into. slash is fine and actually preferred to overt harem stuff.

I am begging you all, please start LINKING your fanfic recs!

There is no faster way for me to lose interest in your recommendations than for you to leave a title with no link. ESPECIALLY when you don't mention the author either. There's a specific button in the app to add links (its the button that looks like a chain), please, it will take you like two extra minutes. You could even just copy and paste the link in your comment if you wanted to. Idk if this bugs anybody else, but it drives me mad.

Idk if this post will even be allowed here since it's not an actual recommendation or request, but I'll give it a shot.

Looking for Hermione / Severus order members fic

Im looking for a fic I read a few years ago (I think on fanfic.net). The basic plot is Dumbledoor has tasked Hermione with using the time turner to do all this extra training and now she’s a super soldier / assassin for the order. The pairing is HG/SS where she’s lived the equivalent of 3ish more years and there both super jaded.

I can remember really loving this fic, if anyone could let me know what it might be I would be so happy!

Need help finding a few fics?

In one Harry time travels to before first year, he steals the philosophers Stone from Hagrid replacing it with a fake. He then finds a trash barge and starts turning the scrap metal into gold with a decal that reads "Potter Mines".

The second is also a time travel fic. In this one Harry goes back to first year, and the thing I remember about it was that at the end of first year Harry turns into a giant Dementor like being and confronts Querielmort, Tommy boy demands that the dementor-Harry obay him, Harry says no, and Tom falls under the belief that Harry is the first dementor, the king of his race, who never knelt to him. Harry also opens up his robe and shows off Hermione clutching to his leg, similar to how those orphans were holding onto the legs of the Ghost of Christmas past in the Christmas carol movie. That Harry warns Voldemort against going after the girl because she's under his protection, and Voldemort agrees.

The third story I'm looking for, is not a time travel thick, instead Harry turns into an animagus, a basilisk, and becomes Hermione's familiar. Hermione goes to Hogwarts, and I think she's in Slytherin, but I'm not sure. Anyways, Qurriel starts training her in secret, and later on in her second year when the CoS is opened and ppl are being attacked, Hermione is brought before the Wizengamot, who declared her guilty. She then acts like a dream psychopath claiming let the Dark Lord will return one day and free her from her prison. Lucius Malfoy goes home having been one of the key components to sending Hermione to Azkaban, and tells his wife that he's pretty sure that Hermione Granger is the daughter of the dark lord and Bellatrix lestrange, and he just got through putting her in prison, which causes both of them to feel absolute fear.

The final one I'm looking for, is I believe a Harry Potter time travel fic, but I'm not sure. What I remember about it is that Harry is living with Sirius and Remus in the manor of Sirius' uncle, which is never Hermione's place. Anyways a few things I remember about it is that Sirius' Uncle charmed the toilets to each have a different flavor, so that his dog had something good to drink. Another thing I remember is that there were secret rooms, and Harry had invited Hermione over to his place and showed her the secret room, and started teaching her about potions, without telling her that they were actually doing potions but just pretending to do potions. The final thing I remember is Remus and Amelia Bones meet up at an Anti Werewolf Registration protest, and they start dating. I think I'm not sure, that Hermione has a younger brother or sister in this story, and that Hermione's home is burned it down, or that the sibling is shot, or run over by a car, which is why her mind never talked about having a sibling.

Potential New FanFiction?

Hi all! I've been debating for a while about writing a fanfiction because I enjoy writing and have so many ideas, but I think I've decided to do it. It would be a Draco-based fanfic, though. Is this something y'all would be interested in or are there already enough fanfics? Just wanted to poll on here before I write it all and no one needed another lol

Procurando Fanfic de Harry Potter

Eu estou procurando uma fanfic do Harry Potter que eu li a um tempo mas não consigo lembrar o nome, nem se era terminada mas ela tem um ponto bem distinto que eu nunca vi em outras fanfics. Nela o Harry diz a Umbritch que quando as pessoas finalmente aceitassem que Voldemort estava de volta e implorassem para ele salvar eles denovo o preço dele seria a cabeça dela.

My mind is occupied with the idea of people from the previous generation, so like teenage marauders, lily, snape, other assorted students, time travelling forward to Harry's time. Anyone know of any fics like that?

LF a Fic that Voldemort created a spare Horcrux, come back and went to war with muggles

I'm looking for a fic that I read but just remember the beginning

In the war of Hogwarts Voldemort create a spare Horcrux in the form of a pebble and throw it in the Black Lake, after he "dies" Lucius Malfoy goes after him, get him a new body and they resolved to attack the Queen and the Muggle Prime Minister to subdued the Muggles, but what they don't expect is that the Muggles fight back and was actually good at war, most of the wizard side with Voldemort camp to survive the common enemy, but the muggles still have the upper hand.

That's all I remember, I think it's a time travel fix fic, but I don't remember what happens after that

Looking for a Characters Read Harry Potter Books + Time-travel fic

I'm looking for a fic I read a while back. It was a Characters Read Harry Potter Books where the characters reading were from the marauders timeliness. James, Sirius, Remus, Frank and Alice Longbottom, McGonagall, Dumbledore, Weasley parents, Hagrid, Narcissa, Regulus, Snape and 2 OCs: british muggle girl and american muggle-born Witch. They read the books that Harry and Co send back. 'And Co' include 2 OCs: Antares Black and Regulus Black III. It had some Latin name as the name and the author used words straight from the book with extra words in bold signifying their OCs. Last time I saw, the author said that they were caught out for using direct quotes from the books and needed to rewrite I think. I miss it. It was so wholesome. It went until end of third year. Unfortunately that's a trend with these type of fics. The author seems to run out of steam at 3rd year.🙄

Crack fanfic idea , very popular muggle channel is doing documentary on the old blood families, along with a few interviews with the current living members of the families

So a very popular channel is doing documentary on the old blood families, along with a few interviews with the current living members of the families.

It's just mostly about there lifestyle along with the contribution of the family to the Britain. And petunia happend to be a fan of this show (so she can copy their behaviour) along with most of the Britain. So then comes the turn of the Potter family, what there contribution was, is, along with the information about family member and how James (the last head of the family) was a brilliant high posted officer along with his wife Lily Evans / Potter. And how they were killed by the leader of a terrorist group, how they have a son named Harry who was the only Survivor of the incident. How he is currently studying in a private school in Scotland along with other members of the old blood families. The net worth of the Potter accerts. Along with the pictur of James and Lily holding young harry and other of the present harry in his uniform.and the episode ends with a promise of interview with harry in the next episode The reaction of petunia would be worth watching. Along with all the people who knew harry before Hogwarts, to think who they thought was a deliquent, turned out to be a heir to a very important old blood family. I'm crackling thinking about their reaction.

So someone please make a fic about this

A few long Tonks-musings for a fic I want to write

So, I am pondering a series of snapshots of Tonks life.

I intend to start with Andromeda's surprise at her daughter. Her being a metamorph, maybe less feminine than she'd hope, I'd need to decide on my image in the depiction of her. I know Andy won't be as punkish as Sirius, but maybe a Hippy? Ted I am pondering as an ex-mod, Lambretta with way too many lights included.

Can't decide where they'd live. Somewhere near London?

Of course Tonks love for the police. Why would a punk join the cops? Easy answer, to punch fasicists. However, I am also pondering the Tonkses having a TV set and Tonks paternal grandfather being a constable. Between grandpa and shows such as the Sweeney, Z-Cars and the Professionals, there might be amazement at the police she can't shake.

And also maybe an early joke about Tonks trying to make decorative vegetables a thing at Hogwarts due to a man in a police box.

Though, I ponder some contrast by mentioning some of what happened in the Muggle 80s, which would contrast with Tonks pro-police image, though it would likely remain on that side, though dented.

I can't figure out what the Tonkses would do as a job. Ted is a healer, but Andy? She might have the Black bitchiness to make for an effective solicitor, but on the other hand, might be posh enough to not work.

Then my next worry is a pitfall I heard in regards to the Marauders. Making everyone gay. Well, I ponder keeping Charlie realising he's Ace(maybe Aroace) after a date with Tonks. Much to the annoyance of a misunderstanding Molly. And I'd have Tonks realize they are a pan enby (well, maybe not using those exact terms. Not sure how easy it would be to discover such in the wizarding 80s). Not sure about any other Hogwarts supporting cast or whom I'd use.

Or when Tonks would meet the Weasley's.

Now then there is another risk. I am debating grabbing parts of Songs for the fic. I feel in a fic with Tonks, you should have fragments of Punk. Can't forget the Sex Pistols, maybe the Ramones, maybe Nirvana when I hit the 90s for some grunge. But well, I am shit at music so there is no chance of me inclusing made-up wizard rock, so how to handle it? And how much would be overdoing it?

And I also ponder how to torture Tonks. She'd be close-ish to Uncle Sirius after she turns 5, I was thinking. You know, when he left Hogwarts and might have wanted to mend his relationship with Andy. And I am thinking when Bella was arrested. You knkw, Sirius AND Bella arrested on the same day? Yeah, it brakes Andy and makes for delicious Drama.

Now, I also wonder when Tonks would get into punk. 1981 is a bit early, maybe at 13 in 1985?

Looking for Harry/Luna ship, and Draco joining the trio?

Howdy! I’m looking for a few different fics, hoping they’re out there :) first, I would love something that’s a Luna/Harry ship - I feel that’s the easiest request lol.

Second I’d love something where Draco befriends Harry year one and joins the trio (quartet now?). Bonus points if he’s sorted to Gryffindor!

Third, something where all of the above are true? I know that’s extra niche and I have no expectations, but figured I’d ask lol

Thanks so much in advance!!

Time travel fic that I can’t remember

I know it was Harry and Sirius that travel back in time to before first year. They eventually meet with Quirrell/Voldemort/Tom and convince him to absorb the horcruxes and keep the defense position as Quirrells identity. And I’m pretty sure they also steal the stone from Hagrid in Diagon Alley.
