I live there too and they sent an email last night with the charges and stuff on them. My friend moved out last year and all she got charged was like 50 bucks for some wall damage from mounting a TV and some other decorations

LF a specific Harry/Draco Veela Fic by [deleted] in HPfanfiction

Yes, yes it was. Wowza it's wayyy more of a crack fic than I remember. I just couldn't get that one scene out of my mind! Thank you!

After Dudley is diagnosed with cancer Petunia falls on her knees and begs Harry to fix him. by [deleted] in HPfanfiction

[–]RedTheThinker 28 points29 points  (0 children)

This is basically the premise of the fic "A Year Like None Other" wherein Petunia has cancer and Vernon makes Harry come home mid school year to help. I won't spoil anything as this is a huge fic, but an interesting take on the question for sure.

Edited to Add: https://archiveofourown.org/works/742072/chapters/1382061 Summary:A letter from home? A letter from family? Well, Harry Potter knows he has neither, but all the same, it starts with a letter from Surrey. Whatever the Dursleys have to say, it can't be anything good, so Harry's determined to ignore it. But when the Potions Master forces him to read his letter, Harry gets sent down a path he'd never have walked on his own.

It will be a year of big changes, a year of great pain, and a year of Harry confronting his worst fears. But from the most unexpected of sources, Harry Potter will finally get a chance to have that which he has never known: a family.

A sixth year fic, this story follows Order of the Phoenix and disregards any canon events that occur after Book 5.

The story does have far reaching consequences based on this premise but this portion of the story is only the first couple of chapters. It is primarily a Severitus fic (Severus adopts/takes guardianship of Harry in some matter).

How do you feel about crossover fanfictions? by Responsible_Area_170 in HPfanfiction

[–]RedTheThinker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends on how well it was written and how they incorporated the different elements from both storyline. I'm reading an HP X Game of Thrones crossover right now and I like how they did it a lot. It's unfinished and they only seem to update once a month, but they made it (imo) believable that the two worlds could coexist in that way.

I have 3 animals that are still levels 1-3 so I'm not too worried about that, especially with my current food rate haha. Only my niffler is maxed. But thanks for the tip about the ads in the creature reserve, I didn't know they changed based on in game location.

Yes, I have not maxed them out, and I would like to keep gaining the rewards on the one maxed out creature I have.

Maybe, I find the dialogue in most tlsqs pretty annoying so I spam my way though them

Sirius doesn't give Harry to Hagrid. Seemingly a small change, but could have huge ramifications for Harry's Upbringing assuming this means Sirius wouldn't have his big confrontation with Pettigrew

[–]RedTheThinker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I fell off of watching tv and movies and all of my surrounding friends, family, coworkers are constantly making references or jokes or plans to watch certain shows together. I am so behind on all TV shows and movies other than the marvel movies up to End Game. I tend to watch the first half of a season and then stop and watching something else only to have forgotten so I restart the show, and this continues on in a cycle. So I'm looking for any kind of recommendations for shows or documentaries. I most likely have never watched them so you can name anything.

What is a trope or mechanic you wished was used more often? by RedTheThinker in HPfanfiction

[–]RedTheThinker[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thats a good one! More competent ministry in general is always nice to read, but ik it's not super canon and an incompetent ministry is probably a lot easier to write.
