  • A Good Deed Gone Unnoticed

    Luna Lovegood does what she can to ensure that the future is one where she and her father and Magical Britain survive the return of the Dark Lord, which in this case is less about Wrackspurts and more about making sure Severus Snape makes it home safe. Features the White Mage!Oracle!Scrying!Luna from Mary Potter. Oneshot. Canon compliant to the same extent as 'The Truth Is[...]'

  • Regulus' Assignment

    Mary Potter Background/Short. One-shot. Answers the question 'How would Regulus Black and Peter Pettigrew have known each other, let alone become friendly' See also 'Born to Serve' in Coming of Age in the House of Black; The Changing of the Guardian and 'Consequences of Judicious Meddling' in Mary Potter 3.

  • The Night Before Christmas

    A little one-shot mini-prequel to Tom Riddle's POV scene in Chapter 23 of Mary Potter and the Chained Servant. Contains sex and murder, but both are non-graphic.

  • Mary Potter 2: the Heir of Slytherin

    Fem!Slytherin!Harry (Mary); realistic!Professors; humanized!Dumbledore; Sequel to 'Mary Potter and the Call to Adventure'; Parallels 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets'. Increasingly divergent from canon. See first chapter for preface. Most chapters K-rated for violence/relationships, T for language. Later books may be M-rated. Posting M/W/F. PM for pdf.

  • Mary Potter 1: the Call to Adventure

    Fem!Slytherin!Harry (Mary); realistic!Dursleys; consistent!Professors; follows the books VERY closely, especially the first three chapters or so. See first chapter for preface. Most chapters K-rated, T for language, several sections from Snape's perspective are T. Later books may be M-rated. McG first contact/mentor. PM for pdf.

  • Coming of Age in the House of Black

    Turning points in the lives of the last generation of Blacks. Takes place over the course of Bellatrix's life, prior to the events of canon. Focus on BL, AT, NM, SB, and RB. Multiple POV. Mary Potter AU magic and history applies; the Black Family tree as outlined by JKR outside of the books & any birth-dates she has given for any of the characters do not. See inside warnings.

  • Coda: Not the time

    Yet more Mary Potter Background - the Potters' final stand. Follows on Changing of the Guardian. T for language, canon character deaths.

  • The Changing of the Guardian

    Yet more Marauders-era Background for Mary Potter. This one was written in anticipation of a few more pointed questions during the confrontation with Sirius at the end of book 3. Apparently I am a Pettigrew apologist? The things you never knew about yourself… Also: Fidelius Charm Details (ch.3) - please read and critique!

  • Tom and Hermione's Excellent Vacation

    This is utter crack. It's what happens when you get writer's block and then decide to write the 'epilogue' to your AU as a married!Tomione time-travel fix-it fic, when you're only halfway through the third book of seven. It is not necessary to have read Mary Potter to enjoy this fic. Happy (Belated) Tomione Day 2016.

  • That Which Does Not Kill Us

    Set in canon Book 7, immediately before Dumbledore's Army goes public with their resistance. Ginny's POV, self-reflection, first person. One-shot. Complete. I've been in a weird, angsty mood lately, which apparently translates into writing 1997 Ginny. IDK. There is no excuse for this, really. Oh, also, I've never read Nietzsche. Trigger warning: mentions of attempted suicide

  • An Intermediate Beginning

    Mary Potter AU backstory regarding the conception of Lily Evans and the rise of the Knights of Walpurgis (about ten years before the beginning of Voldemort's War). Begins in 1959. Spoiler alert: Related to a plot twist/reveal at the end of "Mary Potter and the Heir of Slytherin." Trigger warnings: Non-con/rape (non-explicit); torture (non-explicit); PTSD?; long term mental trauma.

  • The Truth Is, It Wasn't Like That

    Sirius reflects on James and Lily's relationship. Set in the 5th-year canon timeline, with the twisted interpretation of the Marauders, Lily, and Severus from my Mary Potter AU. T for language. Jily, angst and unrequited Sirius/James.

  • What's in a Name?

    On the naming of Harry Potter. Two-shot: Lily reflects on her own name and the process of naming her child (humor); James reflects on the importance of tradition (life and responsibility). Lily is kind of petty and self-involved; James is kind of paternalistic. Both have clearly been missing the other's point.

  • Mary Potter Year 4 Preview - Lily Evans

    This is from the same world as my fem!Harry (Mary) Potter story, and takes place in Year 4 - Mary's first Occlumency lesson. I've been reading Marauder fics lately and wanted to share it. When (if) I ever get around to publishing the rest of Year 4 of the Mary Potter series (and yes, I am working on Year 2 now), I'll remove this, since a version of it will be included there.

  • A Normal Year

    The Tangent Universe is an Alternative Future predicated on the events of Less Wrong's Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality. It starts out in August of 2000, and follows the exploits of several first-year students as the attend the newly reformed Hogwarts. McGonagall is still Headmistress, Harry and Hermione are teaching. Unfortunately for Minerva, chaos is the new normal.

  • Behind the Name of Harry Riddle, and other background for future fics

    Tangent Universe - This is my first foray into the Alternate Future of Hogwarts which follows the end of Less Wrong's Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality. A brief explanation of why Harry and Hermione finally got married, why their name is Riddle, and worldbuilding extras (Notes on the Professors of Alternate Future Hogwarts).
