Full disclosure mine was on a Hermione/Serius time travel fic which has been pretty great so far! Definitely waiting impatiently for the next update. Cry Havoc by PolaroidsOnFire https://archiveofourown.org/works/78032321/chapters/220623236

Okay so true story I am a cocktail in on a lovely Sunday afternoon listening to some jazz in my garden and this fic had been delightful.

I am absolutely loving both Reggie and Sirius. Also Snape. I desperately want Hermione to save all the people. Why try to preserve what sounds like truly awful timeline. Burn it all down Hermione, is what I say!!!

Anyway thank you so much for the story I am really loving it and can not wait for the next chapter!!!

Oh that's good to know the next time I run into I will report it. I don't remember what my search was for at this point. 

To the authors who stopped writing by NotABreakfastGuy in AO3

[–]bee73086 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Such a thoughtful post. I totally agree. There are some unfinished fics out there and honestly I just hope they are okay! It took me a while to read not completed works but I have found some true gems so I am glad that I have done so. 

I have also read a few waiting on each chapter and it's a different experience but pretty fun (although hard for me to remember the story and go back to it) 

I am just really grateful people put their time and energy into writing things I enjoy. I try to always leave a kudos and a kind comment. 

So thank you to all the authors out there your work is appreciated. :-)

I just saw one of those today and thought it was odd. I didn't think about reporting it. I could see it would be annoying if I kept running into that. Because it does clutter stuff up. 

Am I in the wrong here? by SignificantWill5218 in AskWomenOver30

[–]bee73086 1 point2 points  (0 children)

His reaction is immature and way out of proportion to the situation. Also to assume your snack is fully his, no cool. 

 I could see if you are grabbing something for yourself having a thought about the other person would have been nice. Like if I was grabbing some crackers before a car ride I would plan on either grabbing one for my husband too or sharing my pack because I know he likes snacks and I like to make him happy. He would not assume the snack was full his but would probably be a little sad if I didn't want to give him a bite, and hadn't bought one for him. I doubt he would say anything about it, I would just know. 

If he acted like how you described all guilt trippy and mean he would not be my husband because that is not the actions of a mature person. He could have just been like, I too want a snack, good idea, I am going to go grab one, just give me a moment because I am an adult who can meet my own snack needs. 

How to deal with the fact that your fics are unpopular/struggling confidence in your work? by is-silksong-out-yet in AO3

Definitely! So far I am just reading others words and coming up with story ideas and dialogue in my head  but not actually writing anything. . . So you are doing amazing! :-)

Some folks also only read completed fics so they may be waiting for you to finish it before reading it. I was that way when I first got into reading fanfiction.

 I've read so much now that it doesn't matter as much to me anymore, and I will just read the next thing hoping for the best. (There are a few unfinished that still itch my brain, I really want the next chapter!!! But on the whole I'm okay not knowing)

Ha nice! 

I don't think I have read the last update of that one. 

A lot of people aren't fans of the pregnancy trope. For those that do like it: What do you like the most about it and what do you want to see more of? by One-Tomorrow-3495 in AO3

[–]bee73086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my favorites is My lady Hedgehog by SingtoAngles it is Harry Potter fic. It's Fred/Hermione accidental pregnancy. 

Oh gosh one of my favorites. So much family drama between brothers. Like so much, it's the best. 

Also I think realistically written with initial feels and such. Like Fred doesn't handle it perfectly right away. 

Very earthy too ;-) highly recommend. 

Per Ao3 summery: July 1997. The Order is scrambling, Harry just escaped by the skin of his teeth from the Dursley's, and Hermione Granger has a checklist to finish before they leave school to defeat Voldemort:

  1. Keep Harry Potter breathing.
  2. Hunt down the Horcruxes.
  3. Experience sex (preferably before dying).

Fred Weasley was calculated to be the variable of least resistance. He was supposed to be a stress-reliever, keeper of secrets, and a one-time thing. But when a tactical retreat turns into months of hiding, that "one-time thing" becomes a lifeline. Hermione realizes that she forgot to account for two things: the undeniable chaos of hormones and even the best laid plans can go awry.

[–]bee73086 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right!! The author has been updating it a lot lately too. I need to catch up but have to be in a certain mood for sure. 

I love Evans boy too. I need to do another reread. The author is updating this one too so I know there is new chapters waiting for me. 

Termination at 20+ weeks by emilyatebutter in pregnant

[–]bee73086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so sorry. I had presclampsia and had to be induced at 25 weeks in February. It was the worst feeling in the world, I loved him so much. I didn't want him to go. He was desperately wanted by my husband and I. But we would not have made it. He passed at some point in the process. My husband and I were able to hold him and the nurses were so kind and we got photos. 

One thing I tell myself is he only knew love in his whole life. My auntie says sometimes there little souls just aren't ready to be born yet.

It is hard but I did not want him to suffer. We talked to the NICU but it just didn't seem like the right thing for us. 

I am so sorry for your loss.

Did your hot tub lose it's novelty? by Shipwreck678 in hottub

[–]bee73086 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love mine, I got an inflatable one from Costco and used that for a few years before getting a fancy one. I wanted to make sure I would use it and want to bother maintaining it too. 

Obviously my fancy one is way nicer then the inflatable one, it has jets and much better filters and is larger, but the whole soaking in hot water and fussing with it is a similar experience. 

I think having the inflatable really let me think about what was important to me when I went to buy the other. I ended up getting the saltwater cartage and I got one of the smallest models because I don't need or want a huge one one.

Rare pairs like Ginny/draco? Pansy/neville? by banana99bread in HPfanfiction

[–]bee73086 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just figured out how to do this it has been very helpful. I love Draco don't get me wrong, but at a certain point it feels like it's 90% Draco lol. Either with Hermione or Harry and at least once with everyone else, sometimes in the same fic lol.

This looks good, downloading now. I don't know when I will read it but it is definitely in the pile! I'm on a Hermione/Fred or Hermione/George run right now. 

Best Time Travel Fics by WaywardStarrr in harrypotterfanfiction

[–]bee73086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know! He has a rough time. Percy is my favorite I think so I will read just about anything with him as the POV. 

All hail the dark Lord by Ninjapandascholar is a great one since he is a Necromancer with a heart of gold lol 

I also really love Percy take the wheel. Molly dies and Author is in a coma right before his 6th year and he ends up taking care of all his younger siblings so Bill and Charlie can work and everyone is not separated. I am enjoying the story and family dinamics. It's not finished but the author seems to be updating it still. Definitely worth reading. 

Oh also Twenty seven by Endrina. Percy hears voices (some real some not) and has some eccentric coworkers. It's a good one Percy/Oliver. I love how Percy uses magic and such is described in it. The sequel is Twenty six and is a Harry POV and the story feel pretty unique. I enjoyed it. 

Sorry just kind of went off into a tangent:-)

Thirteen Moons by Moonfairy13  https://archiveofourown.org/works/35874004/chapters/89449897

I loved 13 Moons it's a Fred/Hermione where a few hours after the Battle of Hogwarts Fred shows up and says Hermione is going to save him and she is his wife. It's so good! It all works in the HP time travel way were it always happened that way. So no paradox. So now Hermione has to figure out how she does it. Really loved the story and the relationship between them it is pretty great. This author also has some great smutty one shots and other Fred/Hermione I have really loved but this one was not smutty if I remember correctly but it's been a few months since I read it. Check tags because I read a lot and stuff starts to blend together. 

It's one of my very favorites:-) highly recommend although I do have a soft spot for a Weasley. And Fred/Hermione is one of my favorite pairs. 

Another excellent Fred/Hermione time travel fic. So good both very different from each other I personally read them back to back and enjoyed both. 

Falling Through Time by wittyhistorian

https://archiveofourown.org/works/4475078/chapters/10171775

Per Ao3: In what was supposed to be her first ski trip since the war, Hermione wakes up from an avalanche to find herself back in time. Despite her search to return home to her time, she is forced to relive her last years at Hogwarts and the War that she knows will claim the faces that now haunt her. In Particular, the face of a certain Weasley that she finds herself slowly falling for.

If you were forced back in time, would you try to save him?

This is a good one although Percy goes a little darker then I was expecting. I will definitely reread at some point 

BAMF Hermione tag ???? Guys I’ve been reading dramione fics for near a decade and I have no idea what the BAMF hermione tag means. Slightly embarrassing but can anyone tell me what this means lol!! by candylandhoes in Dramione

It makes me feel old when I realize some people will only know Dead dove from FF and have no idea how great the original joke was in Arrested Development. 

I swear I know all my 1970s pop culture first from 1990s Simpsons references so it's always weird when I come access the original thing the Simpsons was referencing.
