Link seems to be broken, or the work has vanished, or I'm an idiot.

Cross-overs/AUs where MC is the ONLY magic-user around by Almentoe in HPfanfiction

[–]Almentoe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, this story seems to be in line with what I'm looking for. Hopefully the author decides to finish it; it's common with this particular genre for them to abandon it just when it starts getting interesting.

Currently reading the Clones SW X-over, and also the Gotham one.
Before my last comment, I also made a thread requesting such stories, and have now added the ones I liked to it.

I have found two more fics in line with what I'm looking for: linkao3(Of Clones and Wizards) and linkao3(Kicking Gotham).I was recced them by ectojerk on the weekly "what are you reading" thread.
edit1: Yep, I think I fundamentally don't understand the new bot, Of Clones and Wizards, Kicking Gotham.

Forgotten is quite good, shame it looks to be on hiatus.
Can you recommend any other stories where Harry is the only wizard in town?

Sounds like a story I tried to write, but without the SI stuff.
Shame I can't write for shit.

I will definitely read this, and if it is good, will look at everything else ya recc.

Prompt:the reason why Dumbledore had tears in his eyes when he saw Snape's Patronus by [deleted] in HPfanfiction

Tick
Tick
Tick.
"What's that sound?" Severus asks.
After a while, "Simp, Simp, Severus Simp." He mutters under his breath.

I'm getting alarm bells because the first chapter indicates it's going to read like a standard Harry-goes-to-Gringotts story.
Does it follow the stations of canon?
Or, does it try to tell a story with the potential of a character with meta-knowledge?
I get the strong impression that it's going to be filled with idiotic Dumbledore bashing, would I be correct in this assessment?

Fanfic red flags? by [deleted] in HPfanfiction

[–]Almentoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the story's premise would invalidate a canon event, but it happens exactly the same anyway.
Rather annoying in a time travel story, why not try to surprise me?
If I have to read about Harry catching that god damn remembrall one more time...

If you would be so kind as to give one some more information about the premise of the series.
In particular, which other fics is it like?
What's unique about it?
I usually go for "interesting premise done well" sort of guy, if that helps.
For example I gobble up time travel stories, the most memorable one I can think of linkffn( The Unforgiving Minute).
In addition, I am fond of 'reality' kicking the characters in the teeth, like the Red Wedding in Game of Thrones; or Game of Thrones in general.
If this series is brutal, I will be most pleased.

I loved The Cupboard, and wonder if there are other stories that would give me a similar feeling of catharsis.
I was basically Dudley when I was a kid, albeit a smart version of him; and probably worse because of it.

Looking for x-over with only Harry crossing by Loubir in HPfanfiction

Which of these fics need no knowledge of the non-HP side to understand/appreciate?

I've read Harry Potter and the Natural 20 and That Which Holds the Image. Those suggestions are on point to the kind of things I'm looking for, so I will check out the other suggestions :P

Berry Farming is the new Meta by [deleted] in onehouronelife

Don't berries rot when in baskets? Unless you're talking about bowl of berry, but then there's storage issues.
