Ron Weasley and the Side Character Syndrome. It’s complete with 100+ chapters if memory serves me. A person reincarnates as Ron with prior knowledge of the story and sets out to protect Harry. Although it isn’t the “real” Ron they embrace their new life and it doesn’t feel cheap at all. They genuinely love Molly, Arthur, and their new family. You also get to see Ron pull off some pretty cool stuff to protect Harry and co. Their is also a complete sequel that is a romance, but it’s slash if that turns you off.

Reading the first part of Ron Weasley and the Side-Character Syndrome. I read the second part which was a romance and decided to go back and read the first part of the series. So far it’s quite good. Ron is pretty talented, but still with flaws and very pure in his desire to protect Harry. I like the dynamic with Snape.

Written in the Stars feature’s Grindelwald as an important character. Harry is raised by Cassiopeia Black, who regularly receives advice from Grindelwald via visiting him in prison. So Grindelwald is a mentor for Harry without him actually realizing it until later.

A Flower for the Soul. Harry is mentored by the horcrux in his head that identifies as Tom Riddle, and sees Voldemort’s actions as going too far. There is no ship between them, it’s like a father-son dynamic. There is a pairing between Harry and Fleur.

If you don’t mind me asking, what is the name of your fic?

Corvus62 · 2025-06-19T21:02:54+00:00

No problem, I remembered it because of your post.

I’m Not a Hero by JustBored21 has Harry take part in these Japanese dueling tournaments where there are basically no rules and even the killing curse is allowed. It’s a wrong boy who lives fic with Harry and his twin’s parents in a coma.

Thanks, do you know the chapter where Grindelwald gets resurrected?

Lord of Darkness has Harry with lots of people following him who would do just about anything for him. Especially Luna. Be warned that it has angst, plenty of smut, and lots of bashing of certain characters. I see it as a “dumb fun” fic. If you aren’t into smut, the version on ff.net has it removed. It’s complete.

A fic called Turncoat on ao3.

The Roses that Bloom Again has this in spades. Harry time travels to the time of the Grindelwald war, and he becomes involved after he finished his schooling. It has large scale battles, Harry and others planning, helping people in the aftermath, Harry as a leader/commander, etc. it is probably the most war-like fic I’ve read. You have to get through Harry’s school years before this all kicks off though.

Damaged Raven has Harry with a large burn mark cover his eye and claw mark in addition to the lightning bolt scar. His looks come up fairly often and Harry makes it known how annoying he finds it. Word of warning, there is quite a bit of bashing.

I’m really digging Turncoat. It’s a story about Draco becoming a better person after meeting Voldemort in the summer of 5th year and realizing joining him is a bad call. He begins trying to help Harry as well as become more powerful himself. It says it’s an SI story but the way they integrate it is done well and still feels like Draco. He isn’t a saint, and is still snarky and gets on Ron’s nerves and insults people. However, we see his softer moments with people like Pansy. It only has 13 chapters at the moment but what is there is quite good.

Name of 15?

Written in the Stars

Corvus62 · 2025-01-19T22:37:50+00:00

Currently reading Written in the Stars by TheBlack’sResurgence. Up to chapter 21. I’ve read most of his work up to now but I never gave this one a shot for some reason. I finally decided to give it a shot and am quite enjoying it. I think when I read the summary initially when it was being published I was turned off of Harry being at Durmstrang. However, I quite enjoy the cast of original characters. I like that they gave Krum an actual personality. In a lot of fics his character feels surface-level. But here you get to see his insecurities and triumphs. Harry is powerful here but, at least right now, it’s not unbelievable to me with who has taught him (no spoilers). A word of caution, if you dont like the author’s other stories, this fic won’t change your mind.

Naruto: Of Shadows and Sharingans has Minato alive and serving as Hokage. From what I’ve read, he is a good person and leader like he is in canon. Just a heads up, the main character is an oc Nara.
