#hp fic list

[hp-fanfic-archive]

an introductory rec list (that no one asked for) to some of my favorite ships: drarry [4/10]

First fic I read for the pairing: Obsession by yesbocchan [2k,T] Harry thinks Malfoy is up to something evil. Until he finds out maybe he's not the only one with an obsession. [just a cute little eighth year fic i saw on tumblr back when i was first getting into fandom stuff (and back into harry potter in general) when i was near the end of high school. it’s cute, it’s sweet, and i was curious about drarry as a concept so]

Fic that really sold me on the pairing: Stealing Sweaters by DorthyAnn [12k,T] It's their eighth and final year and over the course of several months, Harry and Draco have managed to become close friends. Their friends are entirely certain that they ought to be much, much more. So they just decide to... help things along. [listen, everything that DorthyAnn writes is phenomenal, so how could i not fall in love with this ship after this?]

Absolute favorite fic(s) for the pairing: Animus Nexus by MystyVander [96k,T] It's Eighth Year at Hogwarts and it seems Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy hate each other more than ever before. Everybody is sick of it. Somebody was tired of the two enough to curse them, binding them together. What at first appears to be a death sentence to both Harry and Draco turns out to be the thing the both of them needed the most. [it’s enemies to friends to lovers coupled with accidental bonding coupled with discussions of magical theory coupled with wizarding traditions with a few misunderstandings and some angst all set in eighth year and that’s basically the perfect combination for me.] Twist of Fate by Oakstone730 [302k,T] Draco asks Harry to help him beat the Imperius curse during 4th year. The lessons turn into more than either expected. A story of redemption and forgiveness. Pairings: HP/DM (Slash) Timeframe: 1994-2002 Goblet to 4 yrs post-DH EWE Rating T for language, high angst, content. [this fic has lived rent-free in my head for three years and it fucking slaps. there’s angst and fluff and so many bittersweet moments and it’s both canon compliant and completely canon divergent and i am obsessed with it. 40000/10]

Most recent fic I’ve read for the pairing: love me now (touch me now) by swisstae [3k,G] Harry's never had a bath. Draco plans on changing that. OR in which Harry gets his hair washed and Loves It (and Draco. He loves Draco too.) [this fic is adorable and sweet and i enjoyed it immensely.]

Favorite AU(s) I’ve read for the pairing: Alternate Sorting AU (Slytherin!Harry): Malfoy Flavor by Vorabiza [199k,E] Harry’s ready to banish the Golden Boy image and take charge of his life. Unfortunately for him, or fortunately, there are surprises in store for him. [Slytherin!Harry but it’s not an entire canon rewrite like most of the alternate sorting fics i love so much, so that’s fun. also severitus and just the right amount of soul crushingly painful angst. oh and it has a delightfully fluffy little sequel. ] Alternate Sorting AU 2: Electric Boogaloo (Ravenclaw!Draco): Chaos Theory by Tessa Crowley [102k,E] Chaos: when the present determines the future, but the approximate present does not approximately determine the future. One gene varies, one neuron fires, one butterfly flaps its wings, and Draco Malfoy's life is completely different. Draco has always found a certain comfort in chaos. Perhaps he shouldn't. (warnings for: major character death, graphic depictions of violence, psychological torture, implied/referenced non-con) [as my notes on my bookmark said: GOD DAMNNNNN. I LOVE THIS FIC. I CRIED SO MUCH AND ALSO THERE WAS LAUGHTER AND JUST GOD DAMN. ONE OF MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITES. so that about sums it up.] Time Travel AU: Annus Mirabilis by Ren [39k,E] Harry and Malfoy are trapped at Hogwarts around the time the school was founded. Stuck with a different way of doing magic, with no chocolate, and with each other, they have to find a way to work together if they want a chance to go home. [i almost never fuck with time travel aus but… this one slaps. also? hogwarts founders era?? hell yeah. also also? their relationship progresses in a way that feels so natural and the tension is so palpable and the writing is excellent.]

Favorite Series for the pairing: Leo Inter Serpentes by Aeternum [746k,E,6 Works] Just one conversation between two eleven year old boys goes slightly differently, and the world changes. Just how much will be different with Harry being sorted into Slytherin, and how much will stay the same? [Slytherin!Harry? Harry, Draco, Hermione friendship? Severitus? All in a complete series re-write that’s currently six completed works deep? What more could you possibly need?]

Longest fic I’ve read for the pairing: I Do What I Want by XxTheDarkLordxX [509k,E] They say you shouldn't touch what isn't yours... Too bad no one told Harry that. A simple mistake that Harry made in his first year at Hogwarts is coming back to bite him in the arse. The war is over but the threat to his life is just beginning. This story begins with a simple apology that changes Harry’s life. It starts a domino effect that leads to unbelievable connections, undying love, unique past lives, unknown villains and an unstoppable family. Follow Harry and his friends on an epic adventure filled with twists, bumps, comfort, enemies, a new life and a lot of love. (warnings for: major character death, some character bashing) [the first (or first few? i forget) chapters are written in first person but they’re an internal monologue and the rest of the fic is not in first person, just so you know. Also, the concept slaps and the fic is cute and i love to see it (and i’ve read it thrice).]

Fic(s) with some of my favorite tropes: Matchmaking: Ron Weasley: Accidental Matchmaker by Phoenix_Waves [2k,T] "There's not a sexual tension out there that the man can't accidentally detect!" George beamed. "And then ask the stupid arse question that's going to light the spark and fan the flames." Lee added matter-of-factly. A fluffy Christmas one shot featuring our favorite older Gryffindors. [god this is excellent: the obliviousness, the mutual pining, the matchmaking, having the older gryffindor kids around and having a good holiday time- it’s all excellent.] Soulmates: Kiss Me Not by DorthyAnn [21k,T] Sometimes a witch or wizard's magical signature is so completely incompatible with another that they repel one another like magnets. On the other hand, if two magical signatures mesh well together, well there are no stronger relationships in all the world. In a sample of a thousand people, the average witch or wizard will be slightly repelled by four or five people and strongly repelled by only one, at the most. The opposite is true for attraction. But Harry Potter can't kiss anyone at all. [this is actually such a fascinating take on the classic soulmates trope. there’s no predestined person for everyone and there’s no magical guarantee of anything, just magic being a little difficult and i adore that. also the writing style is excellent and the characterizations are spot on.] Accidental Bonding + Bed Sharing: Let's Take A Chance On Happiness by endless_grey [21k,E] Harry works with Luna at her magical antique shop, and everything is going pretty well until a mysterious ring makes an appearance. Cue curse-breaker Draco Malfoy and an accidental bond, and suddenly Harry is magically married to his former nemesis. They need to break the bond before Hermione's fundraiser, but Harry doesn't remember "fall in love with the git" being part of the plan. [i discovered this fic while looking for something else, but it’s so good. i love their dynamic and it’s shift as the story progresses and i love both of their friendships with luna just as much. it’s funny and a little angsty and well written and has two of my favorite tropes in it. what more can i say?]

booksaremylover said: Oh man! You got fic recs??

Oh hell yes!

Harveste Addams - Harry Potter and Addams Family Crossover. Dark!Harry and made me fall in love. I swear I went a bit psychotic reading this. It was so beautiful. Harry gets adopted by the Addams Family after spilling blood. He becomes their family and learns the way of blood magic.

Part 1 - Introduction

2 - Philosopher Stone

3 - Chamber of Secrets

4 

5

6

7 - Half-blood Prince (Still continuing)

The rest of the Master of Death!Harry Trope

Xerosis by Batsutousai - Even more stunning. Decides to kill all Muggles and sides with Voldemort. Dark!Harry. Harry gets a second chance from Death to relive his life from the beginning with one thing in mind, death to all mundanes.

Death's Son by LittleMissXanda - Absolutely stunning. I love it. I love Death and Harry's relationship. Dark!Harry. Harry dies and with the love and support from Death, he gets a second chance to live and put to death the people who killed his family.

Time to Put Your Galleons Where Your Mouth Is - Tsume Yuki - This one is pretty interesting. Kind of Dark!Harry but mostly deals with Reincarnation and Time Travel-ish. (I love Time Travel) Harry keeps on living in other bodies in different times but this is the first that's so close to his own. He is the older brother of his godfather, Sirius Black.

Harry Potter and the God That Wasn't by Selador - Ongoing. Has a splash of Avengers but mostly deals with Supernatural. Future!Fic. It's interesting to say the least. Harry is slightly dark but this was a good read. Harry is now an Auror but as grown bored from the lull that has come after defeating Voldemort and all his Death Eaters. In the circumstances, he runs to different places and meets new people.

Shade by rayningnight - Ongoing. Very interesting. Deals with Time Travel. I think it would be more interesting once more chapters come out. (it's a good plot line though) Young!Harry meets another who he often calls his shadow. 

On A Pale Horse by Hyliian - Ongoing. Very interesting and has one hilarious part in the bank. Death!Harry is summoned by Dumbledore from an AU to kill Voldemort. 

The Rise of a Dark Lord by LittleMissXanda - Ongoing. Absolutely sinful in every way possible. Harry Potter grows up to become the next Dark Lord.

Shards of Time: The Master of Death By: Shitsumeishi. Ongoing. Harry Potter dies in the final battle with Voldemort and wakes up as his 11 year old self. Not knowing what happened, he uses this opportunity to change things. A lot of things. I really love how Harry decides to become politically strong.

All Was Not Well By: White Angel of Auralon -Complete. This one is short but interesting because he becomes friends with his parents. Harry Potter travels back in time before he's born and becomes Hadrian Potter, an identity he created from a long-lost brother of Harry's grandfather.

This one isn't part of the trope but I loved this fanfic a lot. Like a whole lot

Gelosaþ in Écnesse by Batsutousai - Deals with Time Travel after the battle between Harry and Voldemort during the TriWizard Tournament, Harry is sent back in time where he meets the founders of Hogwarts. I never knew I found fall in love with this ship but I did.

And because I love Potterlock. (Not sure if you do) but here are some where Sherlock and John end up adopting Harry.

221B Baker Street; Muggle London by one-windiga - the one and only. Beautiful fic but hasn't been updated in years. How Harry would have changed under the care of Sherlock Holmes. Slytherin!Harry, deductions flying everywhere!

Unseen Deductions by Mrs.UnsaneOne. - Harry becomes blind due to his cousin and his magic allows him to see. One day, he witnesses a murder, which brings along the famous pair, Sherlock Holmes and John Watson. It's interesting how the story changed due to Harry's disability and the crack in his magic core.

A Study in Magic by Books of Change - Harry adopted by the flatmates but ultimately follows in John's footsteps. What's more stunning about this is that Harry learns how to deduce and asks Sherlock to help solve the mysteries of Hogwarts. There are many OCs but you will fall in love with them so easily. This was the fic that made me fall in love with Sherlock again.

And other crossovers:

Illusions of Grandeur by Kanathia - Supernatural / Harry Potter crossover that's simply amazing because Harry is immortal and half-angel, everything hates him and he hates everyone. Harry Potter is the Master of Death and has lived several earth lives and eons. He was perfect in his little life gathering items for hunters across the globe when he met the Winchesters. And we all know how much the Winchesters mess you up. 

Agent Potter By: White Angel of Auralon - James Bond/Harry Potter crossover. It's so well done, I kind of want this to be real. Even my sister loved Harry being seductive as James Bond. Harry Potter, after years of abuse from the Dursleys, meets his godfather, Sirius Black who works for the MI6. Knowing that Harry has to face Voldemort, the MI6 decides to train Harry.

Others (mostly Dumbledore bashing):

Forging Destiny By: White Angel of Auralon - Complete and has a sequel. Has so much Dumbledore hate in this, it's beautiful. Like I read this all in one sitting. Stunning how the author changed things as ways that Dumbledore manipulations. Harry Potter has been manipulated under Dumbledore's care and it's only through Sirius' escape that he realizes just how much the headmaster was hiding.
