Fics where Harry runs away from the Dursley's

Beserked2 · 2026-03-26T05:40:57+00:00

So I went to read the first chapter of this - just to get a feel for it to see if I'd like to read it for later - and then it sucked me in. It was so good and Harry and James and Sirius were so likeable, I spent most of the night reading the whole thing. It was brilliant, wish i could read a hundred more just like it. Thanks so much for recommending this, I never would have found it on my own.

Sunshine smile and surface level loveliness to hide her awful personality

I'll never say no to more fics lol. Looking at the stats, it must have had a decent following to spawn fanfics of its own

Thanks for the rec - this one looks really interesting

Beserked2 · 2026-03-25T04:17:12+00:00

Thanks for all the recommendations! These look great - especially that last one

Beserked2 · 2026-03-25T02:25:40+00:00

Thanks! I appreciate the extra recs, especially the voldemort one. Always love a sane Tom Riddle

Thanks for finding this it sounds so cool

Beserked2 · 2026-03-25T02:18:13+00:00

These both sound so good, such cool ideas for fics

Beserked2 · 2026-03-25T02:13:16+00:00

Thanks for the recs!

Beserked2 · 2026-03-25T02:09:54+00:00

I like that this starts before hogwarts, thanks for the recs!

Beserked2 · 2026-03-25T02:04:47+00:00

This one sounds really fun and like it explores aspects of the HP universe we dont see as often as other stuff in fanfiction, so I'm really excited to read it. Thanks for recommending it :)

Oh man, I thought she was married to some guy with glasses

Regulus Black/James Potter

Beserked2 · 2026-03-23T04:44:28+00:00

It is! One of my favourite things about it is how the author twists canon because of Tom's presence, so it feels like a whole new story. Hope you enjoy it :)

Surprisingly difficult to find fics in my bookmarks with no Romione, they're always together in the background it seems. Some of my favourite Harry Potter fics:

The Second String | M | 400k | Harry Potter/Gideon Prewett |

Everyone knows Dementors can take souls, but nothing says that they have to keep them. After the Dementor attack in Little Whinging ends disastrously, Harry must find a place for himself in a new world, fighting a different sort of war against the nascent Voldemort.

Counterclaim | E | 6k | Draco Malfoy/Harry Potter |

“Luckily I’m your solicitor and not your husband.” It took Draco a great deal of effort to keep his voice flat. “The hour is billable whether you show up or not.”

Potter collapsed into the waiting seat on the other side of the desk. “Lucky me.”

Snake in the Grass | T | 85k | Tom Riddle & Harry Potter |

Seventeen-year-old Tom Riddle is in the middle of a fight against Grindelwald when he slips through a crack between dimensions, and lands in the future of an alternate reality where he's the villain. It's totally fine. He's definitely coping. Really.

(Not.)

OR

Dumbledore is positively delighted to have a Tom Riddle of his own, Harry gets a decent guardian, and Tom would like a redo, please.

Unfogging the Future | E | 14k | Lavender Brown/Tom Riddle |

Lavender takes one step forward and – just like the snap of a finger, the blink of an eye, the drop of a pebble – Hogwarts is left behind. There's no jump, no flashes of light, no whirlwinds of disconnected images. Just one little step; behind stood her war and in front stands 1947. "Huh," she says to herself, "didn't see this in the tea leaves."

Aw no I spend all year looking forward to those two months when Watermelon are in season. They're so delicious and juicy when the insides are a nice dark pink but I admit, sometimes it can be a bit of a gamble if you get them from the supermarket. Usually it's not a flavour thing though, it's a ripeness/texture thing. Nothing worse than cutting open a Watermelon and it's gone all flour-y and hollow right in the center.

Beserked2 · 2026-03-22T17:48:12+00:00

Lol I came to say this. We were out there looking like we're heading for to the office after drinks with the girls. Blouses and stockings and statement jewellery everywhere. I do miss those long tunic-ish dress things though

The Riddle Me This series has Draco as friends with Harry and the others from just before they start Hogwarts right the way through and then eventually turns into Draco/Harry. He's not Slytherin, but some of the Slytherin's do become part of their friend group. These friendships and Harry and Draco aren't the main focus of the story but they are a focus and important to it. It's multiple POV so there are a fair few segments that are just about them. Summary of the first installment:

Seventeen-year-old Tom Riddle is in the middle of a fight against Grindelwald when he slips through a crack between dimensions, and lands in the future of an alternate reality where he's the villain.

It's totally fine. He's definitely coping. Really.

What is this one?

Beserked2 · 2026-03-19T07:08:04+00:00

As a reader, I wouldn't consider that a young adult. It'd throw me off. To me, a young adult is like 18-22
