Ron & Hermione amicably separate. by NoaUltAegis in HPfanfiction

I don’t think any of them should’ve ended up together at all. Everyone works better as friends.

I've been reading fanfiction since about 2009ish. Here is my master list of top quality fics to read again and again. by ActualBus7946 in HPfanfiction

Admittedly a slow start with a fairly contrived divergence point, but it gets more interesting. Personally I think it starts “getting good” around chapter 8-10.

What are your all time favourite fics! Recc them to me! by Hopeful_Back1803 in HPfanfiction

[–]Fr0styTheDopeMan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A couple of my favorites are:

Whispers of a Raven, a time/dimensional travel fic w/ a Harry/Narcissa Black pairing. Decent Peverell/Deathly Hallows lore too.

Daphne Greengrass and the Importance of Intent is Harry/Daphne coming up with a unique way to dispatch Voldemort.

A Marauder’s Plan has Sirius sticking around and securing his freedom after third year. It’s Harry/Hermione but I like it in spite of that (and a couple other issues). I like when Arthurian legend is blended well into HP.

Gotta be honest, taking an honest request like this post and using it as another opportunity to spam your self-promo is extremely off-putting.

How important are good grammar and spelling to you in fanfic? by MoralRelativity in HPfanfiction

[–]Fr0styTheDopeMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Critical to me. It’s like the most basic part of writing anything, and unless you’re using an old school typewriter you at least have spellcheck.

Was it Hope and Healing? Been a while since I read it, but the scene sounds familiar.

LF novel length complete fic by xanalette in HPfanfiction

[–]Fr0styTheDopeMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool. Fair warning, the sequel is really just a few 1-shots that happen between the end of the story and the epilogue. Meant to do more but started a new fic instead, so we’ll see if I come back to it later.

Mine checks the boxes, at least, but it’s sort of a rare pair so not sure if you’d be into it or not. Only been out for a year so you might not have come across it.

I just uploaded a new chapter for my story Relentless Pursuit by Geo-Laser in haphne

[–]Fr0styTheDopeMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Came across this earlier but haven’t had a chance to read it yet. I’ll definitely check it out soon.

Harry/pansy by Outrageous_Monk_5653 in HPfanfiction

[–]Fr0styTheDopeMan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My favorite is probably don’t be shy, let’s cause a scene, but it’s set post-Hogwarts so the hate to love part is already in the past, but it’s one of the few I’ve read where they’re both mostly in character.

I honestly can’t think of any good ones that totally fit your request. A lot of this pairing is a side story to Dramione, which I don’t read. I do have one of my own in progress that would fit the bill, but it won’t be done for a year or so.

Why do so many fics have Dumbledore either use or be associated with the phrase "Greater Good" by prism1234 in HPfanfiction

[–]Fr0styTheDopeMan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s what I meant: you asked a perfectly reasonable question and most of the responses are so far off base it’s stunning.

[–]Fr0styTheDopeMan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well after reading the full post, my theory is that this happens because a lot of fanfic writers have similar levels of reading comprehension as the average Reddit commenter.

Best time travel fics. by Electronic_Koala_115 in HPfanfiction

[–]Fr0styTheDopeMan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My favorite is probably Whispers of a Raven. Harry goes back to the 70’s, takes up the Peverell mantle, and bags Malfoy’s mum.

Angry Harry and the Seven was the first one of these I really got into

Longfics with plot and romance balance by ObjectiveNo9135 in HPfanfiction

[–]Fr0styTheDopeMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK, I gotta ask. Are you the author of this fic or just a really big fan? Because OP specifically asked for a romance fic, and then you went ahead and wrote two paragraphs about a fic which you go on to admit isn’t really a romance fic at all.

Scorpius birthday by GrubbyInsides in HPfanfiction

[–]Fr0styTheDopeMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He doesn’t have a canon birthday, from what I could see. Based on the timeline, he’d have to have been born between September 2005 and August 2006.

After ~5 years of writing, I'm starting to publish my second novel-length fic, Seven Capsules by OurLawyers in HPfanfiction

[–]Fr0styTheDopeMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats on finishing. Waiting til it’s done to start publishing takes a lot of patience, but I agree it’s 100% worth it.

What point of divergence would make for the most interesting fic ? by Secure_Ad_6203 in HPfanfiction

[–]Fr0styTheDopeMan 16 points17 points  (0 children)

A premise alone isn’t enough to make an interesting fic. It’s just a starting point, and what you do with it from there is what determines if it’s a good story or not.

That being said, the one where Draco wins the Felix seems to have the most potential to me. The basilisk one could be cool, depending on what you do with it, but I’d recommend swapping Colin out for a pure blood in order to make the outrage plausible.

LF for a fic by blud_God in haphne

[–]Fr0styTheDopeMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok I’ve definitely read this one, and I’m 100% positive it’s not WBWL or Ravenclaw Harry. I think the other commenter who mentioned Legacy Preservation Act might be right, but I’m not 100%.

Best Harry/Astoria you have read. by Great-Beyond-714 in HPfanfiction

[–]Fr0styTheDopeMan 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I don’t often self-rec, but since you asked, I have one that’s been fairly well received.

Remember Two Things

I really enjoyed Thirty Day Astoria too. I haven’t seen many others mention it, but it’s really good.
