ok time travel and fix-it fics are not my usual cup of tea but i just read THE most life-changing harry potter time travel au ever and i think it completely and irrevocably altered the way i will see the hp magic system, society, and percy weasley forever. this fic fixed my sleep schedule by gluing me to my screen until sunrise two nights in a row until i had to sleep at 9pm the third night (and slept 11 hours). this fic took my heart and shook it around a little and maybe gave it a little squeeze for good measure before it was ripped unceremoniously out of my chest, only to be placed back together tenderly and tentatively and with no shortage of remorse. this fic was written so beautifully, and had plot points and modifications to the canon magic system that were thought out and executed so perfectly, that i wonder if this could have been its own bestselling novel. this fic also somehow introduced me to an insane rarepair that i will never see written so well ever again save for one little post i found on ao3 (that really resembled a tumblr drabble more than the modern multi-chapter fanfiction) with the ship tag that was posted in 2003. two thousand and THREE. how on earth am i meant to live like this? how can i move on? i am ruined. i am deceased. it's all over. i would do it again in a heartbeat.
anyway i digress. it's on ao3, it's called A Study of Resonance by mymovingfingerwrites (iirc) and i'm genuinely crashing out that i finished reading it and i won't ever have the privilege of reading it for the first time again
