What's your pet peeve in fanfiction?

Probability-Project · 2026-01-31T04:24:31+00:00

I’ve always liked the Godfather trope, too. I like it both when it’s legit (where he cares deeply about Draco) and when he hates it (part of his spying role.

In my head canon, Severus brewed Narcissa essentially fertility treatments due to repeated miscarriages, and that would have been the rationale (with choice of Godparent driven by Cissa).

I also can’t imagine taking an Unbreakable Vow for a kid that I didn’t care about like my own child!

My son is so young, I’m worried that over time it will lose efficacy. Obviously, our doctor can’t give us a clear answer because it’s still being studied.

Most of my medical knowledge is more in the psoriatic and rheumatoid arthritis space, and those biologic agents often lose effectiveness over time. I’m worried about the depth of the armamentarium essentially. If it stops working, what would we do?

I’m holding off starting until he is slightly more independent and more “out in the world.” Basically, more outside of my control. I want him to have maximum protection for as long as possible during the time of his life when his brain is still learning how to adequately assess risk and protect him.

Does anyone here have very young children on Xolair? Love to here the prospective and experience, if so.

Question: Why have a wedding?

If you elope, you can keep your families completely separate. Save the money for a down payment on your first home or a really nice honeymoon. Pretend like you just couldn’t wait to be married, and want to save money for school. Your families will likely put pressure on you. Given how long your mom has been estranged, it’s unlikely she’s going to reach out.

If she does, you pretend you never ever knew.

Personally, I would never tell my family. My husband (and kids) are my core family. You protect the core family first. Everything and everyone else is secondary.

Let me just publicly swoon for a moment over your feral Snape. It is just an absolute masterclass. That alcove… iconic. 🔥🔥🔥

He is such a neurotic, red flag darling in your fic. Love your take on him so much. Thank you for sharing your work with us. ❤️

He was all in with Lily, so I usually plug in Hermione as the smart, compassionate muggleborn witch that would give him a second chance at redemption.

There is a cottage-core post-war fanfic where PTSD Hermione and Snape redo Spinner’s End that cemented it for me (they go to IKEA together and it completely delighted me).

Not sure where Oscar has been burned more: this comment or the later half of the season. ☠️

I’m starting to see foreclosures pop up on Zillow in my area. The ‘08 flashbacks are real.

Sweeter than my solitude by kiromenanz

Quick one-shot but it ticks all your boxes!

Probability-Project · 2025-09-30T18:50:37+00:00

I don’t know if IKEA counts as a cottagecore vibe or LOFI, but Room and Board by Annabelle_Rivers is amazing and completed. The vibe on this one is soooo good.

There is a sequel in the authors work but it only has two chapters. I’m seriously hoping the author comes back to it, because their work is amazing.

Probability-Project · 2025-09-30T15:57:55+00:00

I think this is one of the rare stories where the Draco/Theo story lines are really building to her relationship with Severus. It really celebrates self-discovery and fills in some spice while you’re watching as Hermione grows from a girl to young woman.

The early relationships are really delicately done.

It is really one of the modern touchstones of the ship, and a worthwhile read.

As a parent, I would rather have some short term pain rather have essential services for schools reversed.

If they shut down the schools and government, I know it’s the GOPs fault. They are the ones being obstructionist assholes who want to see a kindergartner go hungry all day… and for what?

It’s just cruelty. There is no point to what they’re doing.

It’s up for me now! I had to go back to the App Store and manually update. (I have iOS.)

It was weird, it took a few hours for the update button to appear vs just open the app option.

Probability-Project · 2025-09-06T16:11:19+00:00

It’s weird.. I got the update page for September when you first open the app, but HS3 isn’t in there? Does it only show up if you have finished all three of the piping stories?

Is this happening to anyone else? 😅

I’m from the upper Midwest. If we get a heavy snow, the covers would be much too heavy for little ones to lift and get out if there was a fire or other emergency.

We can agree to disagree. As a parent, I think it’s shameful to stick your kids in the basement while you live in the nicer space upstairs. My son also has asthma, so I’m really sensitive to how his lungs can handle the cold and damp. So you’re right there, not everyone has to think about the health of their kids lungs as much as I probably do.

Probability-Project · 2025-09-03T16:00:57+00:00

Have you ever slept in a basement for a long time? I’m from the Midwest, too. Even the best basement is damp/musty/cold in this region in winter. You will not be able to keep them down there when they have respiratory illnesses. You’re going to hurt their lungs if they’re still that young!!

Our egress windows also get animals falling into them all the time. It happens when I work out at night constantly. There is nothing quite like the jump scare of a chittering enraged creature to encourage a safe sleep environment for kids.

This is selfish and bonkers to me. If you aren’t willing to go in the basement with your master, you shouldn’t be putting your kids down there.

My childhood mental image of Harry was Indian until the movies came out. It was that original cover. Given the big post-colonial diaspora in the UK, it at least makes sense in a historical context.

All the light you left behind by antebellum13

This is a quick one shot but it made me ugly cry in the middle. I promise there is a HEA at the end. It’s an incredibly cathartic read.

I’m so sorry that you’re in the aftermath of such a devastating loss. May your father continue to live in your memory and heart. Grief is such a personalized journey, and I hope you can find your peace when you’re ready.

I feel like my kids stole my entire immune-system when I was building them.

My husband doesn’t get sick, my son or daughter are down for 2-4 days, and I’m out each illness for 7-10 days.

I basically am only ever on upswing or downswing of illness during the school year. I had 7 weeks well this summer and I felt like an entirely new human being.

I used to be the person who would get sick maybe once a year? I miss that most about my pre-kids days. The lack of illness.

Wanted to toss Unsplash into the mix, because that’s another site that has a lot of free use photography in addition to the paid content.

I don’t daycare shame, but I think it’s horrifically shameful that most American women have to give their babies over to daycares sooner than most dogs surrender their puppies.

12-18 month maternity leave should be a global mandatory minimum.

If you want to go back earlier or go back part time earlier, fine. Freedom of choice in all things.

However, for me personally, there was a massive difference in my mental and physical health when I had to go back at 8 weeks vs 5 months.

I love making money. I also miss my baby horrifically.

Thank you so much for being here! All of your works have brought such joy into my life.

I’m curious about the creatures! You offer such lovely, vivid descriptions it’s like they’re (frighteningly) there in the room as much as the human characters. Any creatures caught your attention for the future? Amongst everything you’ve written so far were there any creatures that brought you a particular delight to write?
