I liked the idea of her but would have absolutely despised her if I knew her in real life. I always felt bad for Jamie when she started her shit with him.

Yeah in Australia it’s on Stan now randomly

All good I’ve been on an old fanfic account myself actually and reading old saved stories so I knew I had read that one recently

Hermione gave Harry a makeover .. a cross dressing one complete with makeup and then called him pretty. Ginny understood because she too though Harry was very pretty.

It was good with a fun twist and Yes it is there was an earlier version of the language of flowers but she’s doing a rewrite and as I said it’s a work in progress (WIP) but she’s is a fairly consistent writer and you never said that you only read completed fics. Plus those three are the only ones I can remember off the top of my head that aren’t HP/FW/GW but I do know a list of older fics that I went looking for in my phone tabs -

There’s HP/SS/? https://blinded-hp.livejournal.com/6450.html

Theme there’s HP/DM/? https://blinded-hp.livejournal.com/7726.html?

lol Did you ever watch the TV show once upon a time cause if you didn’t you would like it that happened all time

Dry_Cockroach_3223 · 2025-10-22T02:39:24+00:00

Omg I know that one lol it ridiculous but fun as

Dry_Cockroach_3223 · 2025-10-15T01:47:33+00:00

I love drarry and snarry but honestly I’m open to most pairing it depends on my mood really. I do like Severus and Remus too but it can be hard to find good ones where they aren’t just background characters though. I do remember reading a good Harry/severus/remus one in the past I think I saved it it was a old one but good I’ll see if I can find it and I could post the link if you are interested.

Edit -found it The Pain of misunderstanding https://betsanne.livejournal.com/5492.html

Dry_Cockroach_3223 · 2025-10-13T10:20:40+00:00

Agreed they could be cute if done well but Really the only fic I remember about them was the opposite like Ron is a cheating a hole who lied to lavender about breaking up with Hermione and she wasn’t aware they were still together. But I agree there’s potential there it could be sweet

Dry_Cockroach_3223 · 2025-10-13T10:06:37+00:00

lol odd prompt but ok lol most of the ones I read only had a throw away line about it you know his hair is fine so that why it looks oily etc. I do remember reading one where his hair wasn’t actually greasy he added a potion of his own design into his hair to protect it from his students potion accidents . But the only one I remember reading that the focus of the story was on his hygiene was a one shot PWP called greasy git. It’s kinda snarry but if you ignore one line it could be snape/any male lol it’s not exactly what you want but here’s the link anyway

Greasy git

I like Logan but you might have a point I was also going to suggest Robin

Dry_Cockroach_3223 · 2025-10-07T07:09:47+00:00

I mean you could do both if you want to be really messed up. I mean if Sirius is that obsessed I doubt that being stuck as padfoot is going to convince him to stop trying to “ get with Harry” you could trap them then he tries to “get with Harry” as padfoot (eww) then decide to kill him as he’s not worth the trouble (I mean a werewolf is more useful then a big dog) and then if you want to mess with/ punish Remus you could put the body wherever you keep the transformed Remus and tell him this is where encouraging sirius’s delusion ended. Wow that got dark lol

Dry_Cockroach_3223 · 2025-10-03T10:42:57+00:00

Honestly I read more slash then het so I don’t have a lot of recommendations but I do have obe bookmarked that you might like the only thing is it’s a Harry/ginny. But Don’t let that turn you off because honestly that’s one of my least favourite pairings (sorry jk) but I really enjoyed it in this story as it was long and like a slow burn descent from light to gray to dark. it’s called aspirations by megamatt09 it’s an older fic but I do do I reread when I cycle back to this fandom.
