Good People and Death Eaters story: Untimely, Epilogue

Thu, 19 Jul 2018 16:36:57 GMT

Author's Note: This is the epilogue for "Untimely", the final installment of the Good People and Death Eaters universe, and I strongly advise you read the previous stories, "Blurring", "Spectacles", "Mercies", and "Revolt" first. The universe is a dystopian AU with slavery, but all of the stories within are gen.

Disclaimer: In case you were wondering, JKR was never this horrible to everybody.

Summary: After Harry goes back to Hogwarts, it’s as if he hangs on a precipice, trapped on the edge and waiting for the storm to break. And none of them, not Harry, not Voldemort, not the Death Eaters, nor Sirius Black’s resistance, have any idea what the world will look like when its all over.

Dear Anonymous Reader Who Commented on a Six Year Old Fic to Say I Wrote Lily as a Bitch and a Whore

Sun, 17 Aug 2014 15:25:50 GMT

Thank you for reminding me why I haven't tried to finish those two WIPs I have in the Harry Potter fandom.

At the risk of sounding too much like a Precious Princess, especially after I started Children of Mars, I attracted a lot of virulent partisans who slammed me every time I posted anything, because they didn't like the way I portrayed their special favorite baby. One of the reasons I stopped writing Harry Potter fanfic was I was just tired of dealing with it. I had to delete so many anonymous comments full of profanity and slurs that posting a new fic or a new chapter was something I dreaded instead of looked forward to. Every so often, I get comments on my old Harry Potter fics, and most of those comments are absolutely lovely and can brighten up my whole day, but sometimes they're that same old nastiness.

Universe notes, Hufflepuff!Zuko and race

Tue, 06 May 2014 18:14:33 GMT

It struck me a while back that I accidentally made Hufflepuff!Zuko and Azula white, which is to say if their father is Voldemort, and their mother is Bellatrix, they have two white parents, and crap, I screwed that up. I also made Mai half white for the sake of a silly pun, and connecting her to an old pureblood family. So in the interests of not doing that with any of the other characters, here are my universe notes for race, ethnicity, and family in the Hufflepuff!Zuko verse

Uncle Iroh and Aunt Wu, who run the Wizarding orphanage where Zuko and Azula grow up are both some of the earliest Korean adoptees. Iroh was very close to his adoptive parents, who were Ashkenazi Jewish and both a witch and wizard themselves and took him in after his first adoptive parents, their neighbors, were terrified by his accidental magic when he was still a baby. His adoptive family raised him Ashkenazi Jewish, and did not attempt to help him forge a connection to his Korean heritage. Since growing up, he has visited South Korea, and attempted to reclaim that part of his identity, and he had a few difficult years with his adoptive parents while they struggled to come to terms this. He is still a practicing Jew. While Iroh's relationship with his adoptive parents was good, though flawed, Wu's relationship with hers was not. Her father was emotionally abusive to her mother, and her mother leaned on her emotionally, using her as a reassurance and human security blanket. As she got older, her father became more and more sexually creepy with her, and began to molest her when she was ten. After she blasted him off her in a burst of accidental magic a few months later, he mostly avoided her. Then her Hogwarts letter came, and like Harry, she avoided telling her Muggle adoptive family that she couldn't do magic over the summer. She left home as soon as she graduated, and later went to South Korea, and managed to track down her birth mother, who was a witch too. They exchanged letters, floo conversations, and occasional visits until her mother's death from old age.

Mai' Nott's father is Theodore Nott's first cousin, and her mother is a Japanese pureblood woman that he met and married while abroad between the Voldemort wars. She and her mother came to England with him when Mai was four, at the end of the second Voldemort war. While her father was never a Death Eater, he is a pureblood supremacist. Her mother, while more interested in social status more generally has her own pureblood biases as well. Mai thinks they're both idiots.

Ty Lee is half Vietnamese, half Japanese, which is something she and Mai bonded over on the train to Hogwarts. Unlike Mai, however, both Ty Lee's parents were born in the UK, and are Muggles. Her family is very well off. Her father owns a shipping company, and her mother is an investment banker. Ty is actually her surname, and in primary school, she sometimes went by Leah. Azula is the one who started calling her Ty Lee instead of Lee Ty, but now everyone t Hogwarts does, including her teachers.

Toph Bei Fong is Chinese by way of Hong Kong, and her family is a very old, very wealthy pureblood family. She would have been sorted into Slytherin, but she found out Hufflepuff's mascott is a badger, and had a three minute fight with the hat before it gave in and sorted her into Hufflepuff. She's extremely glad for this, as otherwise she would have shared a dorm with Azula.

Aang is 2nd generation Tibetan, and lives with his grandfather Gyatso. Magic skipped a generation in his family, as his mother was a muggle and his father was a squib. He has a cat named Momo as his familiar.

Sokka and Katara are in flux. I can't decide whether to try to keep them as close to canon as possible and make them Candian Inuit and figure out a reason for them to be going to a British Wizarding school that didn't appear to have any non-british students, or draw inspiration from Katara's name and make them subcontinental Indian, which would make more sense witht he location. Oy.

Jin, Song, and Teo are siblings in this fic, and they're third generation Chinese. Their mother was muggleborn and their father was a half-blood, and both were killed in the war.

Haru Teo, Jet, Yue, Hahn, Hide, and On Ji round out the rest of the war orphans, and I haven't decided anything for them yet.

Hufflepuff Zuko Drabble: Chip on his Shoulder

Thu, 01 Nov 2012 16:02:38 GMT

Written for floranna for the prompt: "Zuko does something to prove he is not Bellatrix and Voldemort's kid, but his own good person. To someone who doubted him before."

Chip on his Shoulder

"You're not a teacher." Zuko looked down his nose at Professor Smith. "You're a bully."

"Detention, Lestrange," the professor said boredly. "Move along. You don't want me to take any points. Your house doesn't like you much as it is."

Zuko's fists clenched, but he left his wand in his pocket. "He's going home on the train tomorrow already. You don't have to scare him like that." He glanced down at the eight-year-old stowaway, glaring back and forth between Professor Smith and Zuko himself. "He's gonna have to come back in a couple of years."

"And that's why he needs to learn now that you don't play with Hogwarts." Professor Smith glanced down at the kid, who was looking at Zuko like he was the dangerous one.

"You're Zuko Lestrange?" the kid spat.

"Yeah," Zuko unclenched his hands and tried to smooth the front of his robe, nervously.

"My brother told me about you," the kid, Sensu's brother, growled like it was supposed to be a challenge. "I don't want any help from You-Know-Who's kid."

"If you're so worried about the kid, you can take him back to the Headmistress, Lestrange." Professor Smith gave him a cruel smirk. "Have fun."

Good People and Death Eaters story: Mercies

Mon, 02 Jan 2012 01:16:11 GMT

Author's Note: This fic is part of the Good People and Death Eaters universe, and I strongly advise you read the previous stories, "Blurring" and "Spectacles" first. The universe is a dystopian AU with slavery, but all of the stories within are gen or gennish het.

Disclaimer: In case you were wondering, JKR was never this horrible to everybody.

Summary: Harry faces the Dark Lord for the first time and learns the true price of failure.

mini chain commentfic meme!

Thu, 11 Aug 2011 19:48:48 GMT

Ganked from rabidchild67 and coffeethyme4me who ganked it from hoosierbitch

The first five people to comment on this post get to request that I write a drabble/ficlet of any pairing/character of their choosing in either the Harry Potter, Avatar: the Last Airbender, or White Collar Fandoms, except Ty Zula. However, if you request in one of my established AUs, please keep to the parings in that universe. In return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability level. (sketch and drawble memes can be substituted for writing memes, though!)

If you want to play the meme but NOT repost and play on your own LJ, you can absolutely still make a request, but please make a note to that effect in your comment so that I can prioritize/encourage the folks playing along at home. And you know, request fics on their memes XD.

Closed

Fills:

lavanyasix - Avatar: the Last Airbender: Firebender Suki verse, Ty Lee after the War

Birthday AU Commentfic Meme!

Sat, 02 Oct 2010 02:51:59 GMT

It’s my birth month, and to celebrate, I’m hosting a commentfic meme! I’m in the mood to write some AU fics, so that’s the theme of the meme. I’m open to both Avatar: the Last Airbender and Harry Potter requests, and I’m also taking requests in any of my existing AUs (Except Children of Mars), including the ones I established im my last commentfic meme, as well as new ones. Comment with up to five requests, and I’ll guarantee you at least one commentfic. I’ll probably answer with more, knowing me. weirdlet , beboots , and floranna get seven requests and a guarantee of two fics, because beboots and floranna are the best betas ever, and weirdlet has a truly bizarre AU I inflicted on her rattling around in her head. Also, anyone who wants me to write anything from my AU of Sun Child needs to ask weirdlet and floranna , because it’s theirs.

*Closed and Finished*

Given that this meme has spawned a fair few universes, sorting the fics by requester would be clunky, so instead, I'm sorting them by universe this time.

"Blurring" in Russian

Drabble: Family

Tue, 22 Dec 2009 21:06:48 GMT

I actually feel kind of sorry for Ginny.

Drabble: Family

Ron let his sister stay there with her face against his shoulder and didn't push her away.

"It's just hard, you know?" she mumbled. "He's in love with the family, not me."

His ears burned red, and he had no idea what to do, so he hugged her.

He held her until the shadows in the room changed direction. "I have to get home," she hiccuped.

He let her go. "Yuck, you got snot on my sleeve."

"What? No I didn't!"

"Yes you did," he jabbed his finger at a trail of wet, "right there!"

Ginny cracked a wan grin.

Drabble: A Matter of Appearances

Mon, 21 Sep 2009 20:58:38 GMT

Disclaimer: JKR doesn't mind fanfiction writers I hear.

A Matter of Appearances

Black Sentenced to Azkaban The newspaper headline proclaimed, and Walburga scanned the first line, chest fluttering. Notorious mass murderer Sirius Black was sentenced to life in the Wizarding prison yesterday evening...

Her firstborn was a credit to the family after all.

She pulled out a peace of parchment and wrote the letter needed to re-inherit her son.

With both her sons disgraced, for the right reasons, she could bear her own disgrace and wile away her remaining years knowing she raised them well.

And even if Sirius couldn't touch a knut of it in Azkaban, it was the appearances that mattered.

Good People and Death Eaters Drabble: Safe

Thu, 25 Jun 2009 03:46:44 GMT

Author's note: This 200 word drabble is part of the Parchment Underground universe and makes no sense unless you have read the other stories in that universe, Blurring and Spectacles.

Disclaimer: In case you were wondering, JKR was never this horrible to everybody.

Safe

James' knees bent and he slid the binder onto the bottom shelf. A shadow fell across his back, and he froze, his hand trapped in the air. "So Potter, what are you doing at Hogwarts in the middle of the Holiday?"

James pushed himself to his feet. "More than you, Avery."

The Death Eater smiled painfully. "Where's your master? I have paperwork for him."

"It's Christmas, where do you think?" James snapped, "He's home with his son."

"And yet you're here." Avery raised his wand and flicked away a piece of lint before pointing it at James.

James backed up quickly, slamming into the bookcase. "I'll take him the paperwork; just leave it."

"I'd love to know how you smuggled out that ledger." The wand flicked up and the air around James' throat and chest hardened. He opened his mouth to suck in breath, but nothing would get past it pressing against him.

"I couldn't have! he gasped, "Bloody hell, how would I have?"

"Keep hoping I won't find out."

The air tightened around him, and he thought he was imagining it when he heard his name from the earring.

As he vanished, he kept his eyes on Avery. Safe.

Good People and Death Eaters story: Spectacles

Fri, 22 May 2009 02:15:26 GMT

Author's Note: This fic is part of the Good People and Death Eaters universe, and although this is a prequel, I would strongly advise you read "Blurring" first. Both are dystopian AU, however, they're gen or gennish het.

Disclaimer: In case you were wondering, JKR was never this horrible to everybody.

Summary: A Death Eater meeting brings into focus James Potter's place in Voldemort's new society.

Good People and Death Eaters story: Blurring

Thu, 07 May 2009 14:18:16 GMT

This fic was written for the Potions and Snitches 2009 Challenge Fest, in response to FoolishWishmaker's challenge: "A reversed Sevitus. Harry Snape grew up with his father. His mother, Lily, died to save him from Voldemort. At the same time as Harry is trying to deal with the awful knowledge that he is destined to face Voldemort and only one of them will survive the encounter, Harry also finds out the unthinkable -- Severus Snape is not his natural father!"

Disclaimer: In case you were wondering, JKR was never this horrible to everybody.

Summary: Severus Snape, high ranking Death Eater and Headmaster of Hogwarts, finds out that his son is not his own when the boy's glamour begins to break.

Author's Note: I intend this to be the first in a series of at least six one shots. This fic contains a direct quote from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, US Edition, "Chapter Three: The Knight Bus".
