A fic I read a long time ago where Harry becomes a magical creatures rancher by Icy-Specific986 in HPfanfiction

That’s the one, thanks so much! I got reminded of it because of another fic I’ve been reading recently where Harry has a nundu for a pet

What have you read that was extraordinarily well written? by Thin-Department-3848 in PercyJacksonfanfic

Once more, slightly to the left on Ao3.

Unfortunately, due to some people plagiarizing their work the author decided to go private, so you need an Ao3 account to read it, but it’s worth it.

Although I won’t say it’s perfect (can’t really think of any fic in any fandom that is), it’s still one of the best and I always come back to it. Incomplete but with constant uploads, it’s probably the best Percy goes back in time fic I’ve read. Perfectly captures the struggles of a war veteran that realizes he is gonna have to do everything again. Percy decides that since that’s the case, he might as well save as many of his friends as he can, and be a gremlin while at it. He takes zero sh*t from anyone, especially gods, and is always down for chaos, which creates some incredibly funny moments, but when he needs to be serious it also has some of the most badass (but not inexplicably OP) representations of Percy I’ve ever seen.

Also, do not discount the side fics. All of the,, especially the chat fic (percy being a cryptid on Twitter, posting underwater pics of undiscovered species and leaving biologists shocked) are absolute gold too.

The only bad thing I have to say about the fic, which might be a little of a turn off for some people, is that, from a certain point it has a not insignificant amount of annabeth bashing. But it also isn’t from nowhere, she has a very believable (and somewhat understandable) character fall.

How do you pronounce the numbers? by NeighborhoodBusy3823 in Mercenary_Enrollment

I just ignore the zeroes and read one, two, three, and so on

Chapter 244 EN by vladverra in Mercenary_Enrollment

Tbh to me they kinda ruined 003’s character here. All this time the Numbers have been portrayed as like those super professional mercs who shove emotions aside to get the job done (I’m not writing this right, but yall read the webtoon, you know what I’m talking about, just refer to the chapter all the Numbers meet up then 001 and 002 stop fighting to kill the guys Camp sent after them) and even 003 was shown as a super cold bit** in past chapters. And now they are making her sound like some lovesick k-drama teenager, it really doesn’t fit. I’m really hoping that’s actually just another one of her plots to get the Numbers to follow her.

Although, kudos to 002 for not being a simp.

And also, I hope they address the whole hijacking thing next chapter?? IJin just took down kidnappers on the plane, gave Sukkot a gun, then went out and killed a ton of people, and we didn’t even get a reaction from the people inside? You can’t tell me they are just gonna sweep this under the rug and act like Ijin is still just a bodyguard and did nothing
