Summary
Harry finds a better life with the basilisk, but that doesn't mean it's easy. From inter-being feuds, to bloody prophecies, to elven unrest, Harry is in the eye of a hurricane that will change the wizarding world forever.
Involving thestrals, merfolk, house elves, centaurs, acromantulae, and various other friends, denizens, and allies.
This series is: Queer in a multitude of ways. Morally complex. A massively canon-divergent AU. Filled with oc's and non-oc's. A story about relationships, love, trust, friendship, healing ... and revolution.
There are seven novel-length fics, plus a prologue (to leap and love the fall) and two longer stories (with courage unyielding and the gentle sunlight). The short story collection to journey on contains shorter stories set within the main timeline. All are posted in the correct reading order.

Summary
One different choice, just one, puts Harry Potter on an entirely new path in life. A path where he gets the help he needs and deserves with adults that actually do their jobs and with a Magical Guardian that is willing and able to truly keep him safe in all his years at Hogwarts and beyond.
Meet a Harry Potter that might be many shades darker than in the canon books, but who also is so much happier and safer. There will be dark times, distress and angst, but in the end, happiness will prevail. This is a feel good, or at least feel content, story and the reader should never doubt that Harry and his friends will come out on top, no matter what difficulties they might face. After all, they have a lot of competent and highly protective adults on their side.
This is a Work in Progress, and the author makes no guarantees for when, or even if, it will ever be finished. Read at your own risk.
The work is based on the characters, world and situations from J.K. Rowlings works and world. No money is being made.

Summary
In 1993, Gilderoy Lockhart points a stolen wand at Harry Potter and Ron Weasley with the intent to Obliviate them. The wand doesn't backfire. Gilderoy's "discovery" of the Chamber of Secrets is a short-term success.
Other consequences are not short-term at all.
Archived Author's Notes:
I was watching the Chamber of Secrets movie several years back when the scene in question began to play...and immediately I wanted to know what would happen if the wand had done what it was supposed to do. The answer got very complicated, very, *very* quickly.Blame Edgar Allan Poe for the title.
Beta work by Norcumi and Mrs_Stanley. Brit Spellcheck will be performed...soon.
*I use the first 7 books and the Tales of Beedle the Bard as canon, but there are moments from the films used because they left me with fun things to play with.
I do not consent to my work being reposted or used in any unofficial apps or other websites. This work is not posted for anyone's profit.

Summary
“Scared Potter?” Malfoy sneered, and Harry snapped. He was done, finished, fed up with playing the innocent little Gryffindor with no common sense and a microscopic amount of intelligence. He rolled his eyes.
“Why yes Malfoy, I’m terrified, can’t you see me quaking in my boots? You, a second year child armed with a stick is the scariest thing I’ve ever seen. Please, please don’t fatally injure me in front of three hundred witnesses and two teachers with your mean words and nasty smiles. Whatever shall I do?” The entire hall fell silent and Malfoy gaped. Harry smirked. Lockhart looked entirely bemused, and he thought Snape might be holding back a laugh.
Harry spent his first year hiding his intelligence and playing the role of the Boy Who Lived. However Lockhart and Malfoys' combined presence finally causes him to snap, and chaos ensues from there.

Summary
"Death"
"You are finally ready, I see"
"Ready for what?"
"To live"
"Wasn't I doing just that?"
"Were you?"Harry had no answer.
(Perhaps that was answer enough. Or perhaps Death just enjoyed being cryptic. Hard to say.)
___{Time-travel AU. Watch as Harry is yeeted into the past, bullies the wizarding world into making sense, and absolutely refuses to follow Dumbledore’s script. Features excessive worldbuilding (someone's gotta fix this mess), slow-burn romance (because trauma-bonding is hot), and a protagonist who treats destiny like Terms & Conditions—unread and promptly ignored. Happy ending optional, sarcasm mandatory.}

Summary
When Hari Potter is seven years old, the kid from Number 3 Privet Drive is caught with a secret pet snake that sends his mother into a fury. She is incensed by the abomination that he’s hidden in her home for so long, and she promptly releases the beast outside. Hari is outside pruning Aunt Petunia’s rose bushes when this occurs, sweating and half-delirious underneath the sweltering summer sun. He, understandably, thinks that he's hallucinating when a snake comes up to him and starts talking.
This young ball python has felt the call of a speaker’s magic ever since she was brought to Little Whinging. The second that she is freed, she seeks out the young speaker with magic that warms her to her bones, and she refuses to be separated from him no matter what.
She is the first serpent to claim Hari Potter as her own, but she is not the last. And a Hari Potter that is raised by snakes is a very different Hari Potter indeed.

Summary
What if Peter Pettigrew had been caught?
What if Sirius Black never went to Azkaban?In a single split-second decision, the course of the wizarding world changes. Instead of prison, Sirius Black finds himself raising Harry James Potter—alongside Remus Lupin and, through reluctant necessity (and fate), Severus Snape.
Three men. One child. And a life shaped not by prophecy, but by choice.
Raised with as many last names as parents, Harry grows up loved—fiercely, if not always gently. Trained in magic, politics, memory, and legacy, he learns that to love is not to shield, but to prepare. He isn’t hidden from the dark—he’s taught how to walk through it.
Part I: A childhood of broken men, healing bonds, and quiet resilience. (Chapters 1–28 | 221k words)
Part II: Slytherin Harry at Hogwarts. Ambitious, kind, loyal to a fault, and destined to surprise them all. (Ongoing)Not the Boy Who Lived they expected. And perhaps something more powerful: a boy who was loved.

Summary
Sometimes people take actions or do things because they are unaware of the possible consequences. Sometimes they do because of those possible consequences. Sometimes even despite the possible consequences. But all of the time if they don't want to run forever they have to cope with those consequences.
This is one possible continuation of the three chapter sketch of a beginning I wrote a while back. I started it for NaNoWriMo last year and came suprisingly far.

Summary
When Harry gets quickly bored of staying in Diagon's main alleyway, he devises a plan to explore the rest of the alley, to the exasperation of Tom the Barman.
He never thought he'd discover a mild version of a rare magical skill and gain a passion in rune craft while doing it, but he can't really complain as it eventually gets him a boyfriend too.

Summary
Harry Potter is a dragon. He's been a dragon for several years, and frankly he's quite used to the idea - after all, in his experience nobody ever comments about it, so presumably it's just what happens sometimes.
Magic, though, THAT is something entirely new.Comedy fic, leading on from the consequences of one... admittedly quite large... change.
This largely follows canon in many respects, but a lot of the more dangerous events aren't as dangerous as they are in canon. Instead Harry has a comparatively normal seven years at Hogwarts, getting a mostly-uninterrupted magical education, which if you think about it is quite an impressive feat for an intelligent dragon.
This fic features a broadly dotty but pleasant Dumbledore, Dean Thomas elevated to a coequal status of main character with Ron, Hermione and Neville, House Rivalries treated as a school in-joke, and a cast of many people who are not human.
It also features Dumbledore teaching classes, though only once he remembers to tell people about the class.

I Was Isekaied Into Ginny Weasley?! by Writing_Heroics
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
26 May 2025

Summary
Isekai is a bit of a contentious genre, but isn't that a bunch of what we look for in HP fics? A way to put ourselves into the narrative that we loved when we were younger, yet feels... uncomfortable when we look back on it?
Somebody got hit by truck-kun, savvy to HP. Rather than being Harry or Hermione, they are shunted into Ginny Weasley.
Join Gin Weasley as she tries to pull her family out of financial issues and forge a new path.
***
A tired young voice, sounding male and a little hoarse, spoke behind me. “Ginny, you’ve got to go, get out of here… Ginny?”
I’d sat up and moved with such swiftness that perhaps caused the boy’s words to drift off. Then my hands were on his face, pushing his hair up to take in the scar, my gaze moved down to meet his famously green eyes that hadn’t been in the movies. Harry freakin’ Potter, and a glance around what must be the Chamber of Secrets showed an enormous dead snake and a pool of ink around a punctured book.
My eyes went back to Harry and saw my small delicate hands still touching his face, grimy though they were, the hands of an eleven year old Ginny Weasley.
“Well fuck me.” I muttered, barely noticing Harry’s shock at my language

Summary
Wednesday Addams transmigrates into Harry Potter on the way to his 2nd year at Hogwarts
Skwiziks, Chpt 22
When I first saw the summary I was kind of skeptical of the premise... Then the premise is actually executed deliberately? The consequences aren't hand waved? The dialog is clever and even funny? It's not overburdened by covering every single event? The characters still feel pretty authentic?
One ticket for thisWhat it is:
- Wednesday Addams' mind merges with 12 year old Harry Potter's memories and she calls out a bunch of strange things in HP canon
- Fluff and Slice of Life mixed with plot
- Complex and flawed characters
What it isn't:
- Canon rehash
- BashingWant a single story? Read to 83 and stop.
5 Alt-AU endings
Epilogue 1: 79-83 is the main ending
Epilogue 2: 84 is a dark ending, Wednesday is very Addams (there are warnings)
Epilogue 3: 85-93 Wednesday and the Triwizard Tournament
Epilogue 4: 94-100 is multiversal crack fic craziness
Epilogue 5: 101-113 Ilvermorny and magic/scienceWant more Wenclair? "A Pack of Our Own" is my post S1 love story
