Lightning on the wave


Just finished reading a great short fic called The Marrage by Janara. It’s definitely something new, I have never come across such a refreshingly original fic.

I’m adding Janara to my favourite authors list as I see she has quiet a few interesting ones, Will update you on those fics once I’ve read them.

Now what is the longest series you have ever read?
For me… The Saving Connor series by Lightning on the wave. They have to be one of the best out there, She basically rewrites Harry Potter right from the first year at Hogwarts straight through till the last and the defeat of Moldy Voldie.
She takes the focus of Harry by making him the less important brother of the boy who lived (So his brother vanquished Voldermort). Even so Harry is like the ultimate bodyguard as he’s fiercely protective over Connor.

It’s amazing and worth a look.

 I love reading the really Epic fan fictions so I know one when I see it. So be sure to Check out Saving Connor by Lightning on the Wave

Harry Potter fanfiction

I’ve decided that every time I read a good Harry Potter & Draco Malfoy slash fiction I’m going to blog about it (Without giving away the good bits).

I’m doing this simply because I feel it would be nice to have a collection of really good ones all in one place.
I’m 22 years old and have been following Harry Potter since 1998, I’m the biggest HP fan I know and I don’t think I’ll ever get over it.
I’m dyslexic and I strongly believe that without JK Rowling’s Harry Potter I would still be terrible at reading.
Over the years I’ve read hundreds of Harry Potter based fanfictions, I read two new ones every day and always check for updates on the other ones I’m following.  

Here’s Something Short and Sweet, so short that I’ll put it up here – It’s not mine it’s a fanfiction by “redandblackbeads” – Read it a few times it just gets better and better every time you read it.

It’s Called: Earwax

Summary: Harry learns all about sex when Dumbledore takes care to answer his poorly worded question. Just a little plot-bunny I had running around.
Disclaimer: I do not own, never have owned, nor will I ever own Harry Potter.

"Alas! Earwax!"
Harry looked up at Dumbledore, frowning a little.
"Uh ... sir?"
"Yes, Harry?" Dumbledore's eyes twinkled down at him.
"Exactly how do you know what earwax tastes like?"
And to Harry's surprise, Dumbledore flushed a deep, revealing red, before chucking heartily, nudging the half-moon glasses higher up on his nose and adjusting his seat on the side of Harry's bed. He cleared his throat and met Harry's eyes squarely, a small indulging smile on his old face.
"Well, you see, Harry, when a man and a woman - or, alternatively, two women, or two men - or, of course, more than two, that can and does happen - love each other very dearly ..."

Two hours later
"... and that, Harry my boy, is how I know what earwax tastes like."
Harry stared up at his headmaster, his face alternating crimson red, an interesting pastel-green, and an unprecedented shade of white in a fascinating arrangement of blotches.
"Harry?"
"S ... s-sir?" Harry's voice came out embarrassingly high as he barely managed to squeak the single word out.
"Hm?" Dumbledore looked fondly down on his favourite student.
"H-He ... uh ... y-y-y-you ..?"
Dumbledore chuckled a little, pat Harry on the knee (either ignoring, or not noticing the way Harry squealed and leapt back, clutching the covers to him protectively) and scooped another Bertie Botts Every Flavoured Bean. Plopping it in his mouth, he froze, then chewed thoughtfully for a long moment, before swallowing noisily, smacking his lips a little, then exclaiming,
"How intriguing! Hippogriff urine!"
Wisely, Harry chose not to comment.
