NEW VERSION

I have a routine. It’s not complicated, but after a long life, I’ve found that it helps me to stay on track for the day. I wake up, turn on the television, (...)

Plant Crops. Raise Monsters. Liberate the village. Each day, Owen rises with the sun. Creatures cheer as he shovels food into the trough. Enchanted plants dance and sway while he waters their stalks. This is a strange, wild world. A place where mushrooms can sprout sentience. A place where forest slimes make the best pets.

Ana just wanted to get home. To slip out of her dress and her heels, take a shower, and get into her PJs. Maybe have some hot chocolate before bed. It had been that kind of night. Instead, the kid she was bodyguarding got dragged through a hole in reality, and she went with him.
The bad news is that once the smoke settled, once she’d dealt with the (...)

This repository contains our efforts to continue the Iceshrimp project's legacy - in the form of an entirely new codebase, with a focus on performance, stability and maintainability.

An experiment. Discworld will happen here, certainly, but there will also be aspects of Terry Pratchett's non-Discworld novels, the Johnny Maxwell trilogy. The author has written a younger version of himself in as a male "Mary Sue". forgive me...

Petunia married a biochemist, and Harry grew up reading science and science fiction. Then came the Hogwarts letter, and a world of intriguing new possibilities to exploit. And new friends, like Hermione Granger, and Professor McGonagall, and Professor Quirrell... COMPLETE.

COMPLETE. Firefly: :Harry Potter crossover Post Serenity. Two years have passed since the secret of the planet Miranda got broadcast across the whole 'verse in 2518. The crew of Serenity finally hires a new pilot, but he's a bit peculiar.

It takes two thieves, a Dark Wizard, and a Tentacle Monster named Tim.

Oh God Not Again!By: Sarah1281Send Private Message
So maybe everything didn't work out perfectly for Harry. Still, most of his friends survived, he'd gotten married, and was about to become a father. If only he'd have stayed away from the Veil, he wouldn't have had to go back and do everything AGAIN.

Milo, a genre-savvy D&D Wizard and Adventurer Extraordinaire is forced to attend Hogwarts, and soon finds himself plunged into a new adventure of magic, mad old Wizards, metagaming, misunderstandings, and munchkinry. Updates monthly.

Pinkie Pie brings a human in need of cheering up into Equestria. Will he be able to cope? One thing's for sure, there will be shenanigans. Set after the end of season 3.

Sirius decides to stay in England after escaping Hogwarts and makes protecting Harry his priority. AU GOF.

Just how will Dumbledore cope with a Harry who is smart, knowledgeable, sticks up for himself and, worst still, is betrothed? A Harry who has a penchant for losing his temper? Ravenclaw/Smart(alek)/Lord/Harry Almostcanon/Dumbledore Non-friend/Ron Harry&Daphne (Haphne). No Harem. Rating is for language and minor 'Lime' scenes.

Does anyone else feel that our heroes got a rather raw deal from the Gala? Here's my non-canon, but heartfelt extended story, now complete.

Bad Colts, Bad Colts. Watcha gonna do, watcha gonna do when they come for you? A Special Edition of COPS in the land of Equestria. All suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Stories featuring the Full Cast X Original Characters

When Rainbow Dash catches a bad case of pegapox, she cannot fly back to her cloud home and finds herself staying with Rarity and Sweetie Belle. Twilight is searching for a cure, but can the pegasus survive her well meaning nurses long enough to use it?

"I'm still alive, as you may surmise from this note. Of course, I could be dead and someone is faking the letter to fool you…" Harry is NOT happy about being left at Privet Drive all summer with no one to talk to.

Can some angry words change everything?

After the Dursleys abandon six year old Harry in a park in Kent, Harry comes to the realization that he is an elf. Not a house elf, though. A forest elf. Never mind wizards vs muggles; Harry has his own thing going on. Character study, pre-Hogwarts, NOT a creature!fic, slightly cracky.

Harry always knew that there was something unique about him. In a way, the arrival of the Hogwarts acceptance letters was almost expected... except, why are they all addressed to 'Harriet Potter?

On that fateful night in '81, Sirius arrives first, gathers up Harry and takes up his god-fatherly duties, raising Harry with the help of Remus and a nudge from the ghosts of Lilly and James in secrecy before returning to the wizarding world for Harry's third year. Rated M for violence and language. No slash, no definite pairing yet.

Not for Weasley fans, dark beginning and rating is for safety. A Re-do with payback on the menu H/Hr Complete

By chance, Harry discovers his Animagus abilities. At the age of nine, he flashes himself to Hogwarts in his phoenix form, hoping for a better life. Will he succeed? AU, partly OOC, abuse!Dursleys, adoption, de-aged!Minerva, An Animagus story.

Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash accidentally activate a pair of magic bracelets which force them to be in constant contact with one another. Stuck together until Twilight finds a way to remove the bracelets, Fluttershy must cope with re-emerging feelings while Rainbow Dash must deal with a misunderstanding rabbit out to get her. FlutterDash.

Harry has learned the prophesy and he does not believe that a schoolboy can defeat Voldemort, so he decides that if he is going to die then he is first going to live.

Tear it all down and build it back up, better. It's a modest goal.

MLP:FiM. Chapter 10: Through Thick and Thin. You don't have to be an Element of Harmony to be able to harness the magic of friendship. Story Complete!

A seventh-year saga that begins one hour after Dumbledore's funeral. Harry gets some unexpected and unexpectedly useful help from the Muggle World...so much that wonders whether the power he knows not is actually the British monarchy! HHr, RWLL

A gift from his uncle Vernon gives Harry a new way to fight the Dark Lord

What if Sirius Black survived that night in Department of Mysteries; what if he had become Harry's Godfather, one who truly looks out for Harry's interests; most importantly, what if he fought like a Muggle? The timeline; certain events; and facts, that occur within canon, will not be strictly adhered to; but as a starting point, this fan-fiction will start during summer 1995.

Based on "Hatal Fart Attack" by Corwalch, "Royal Ward" follows the changes in Harry's life after he gains the personal attention of the Queen. My thanks to Corwalch for permission to write a sequel. Reading "Hatal Fart Attack" first is recommended, but not absolutely required. Please note that this story begins in 1989, shortly before Harry turns 9.

Having been treated as a servant his entire life, Harry is more sympathetic when Dobby arrives, avoiding Vernon's wrath and gaining a bit of freedom. That freedom changes his summer, his life, and the world forever. A very long character-driven story that likes to play with canon.

Harry Potter catches Voldemort's AK to the noggin only to find out that his life is a video game and he forgot to save. So what does he do? Does he return on Hard mode and work for the challenge? Heck No! Harry uses every exploit, grind, or underhanded tactic he can get his hands on. His life may be a video game, but nobody plays Harry Potter. HIATUS

Sequel to Fantastic Elves and Where to Find Them! Harry is captured by wizards and brought to a castle. The wizards are obnoxious, but there's a lovely wood nearby which is quaintly named the "Forbidden" Forest. Harry thinks that's adorable.

What would you do if a pony moved in upstairs? Would you go out of your way to meet her? What would you talk about? And what kind of pony would choose to leave Equestria for Earth in the first place?

Pinkie Pie finds herself adjusting to a new, hostile world, with a new hostile friend. Can they make it through this new misadventure together, or is it the universe that needs to watch out for them?

Dark curses don't play nice- not even with each other. When nine year-old Harry is bitten by a werewolf, the horcrux fights back. The result could only happen to Harry Potter. Canon-ish for the first three years of Hogwarts - AU from that point forward.

Sirius breaks out of Azkaban two years before schedule. He's pissed, half-mad and prepared to do anything to protect his Godson. He's going to make the Wizarding world pay for the hell it put him through- and have some fun along the way, of course! Super! Sirius, Dark Lord! Sirius, but not evil. No slash. May include ships later. Mainly from Sirius' (and Harry's) point of view. AU.

Just Suppose Harry hadn't heeded his godfather's advice, and actually lost his temper at his trial? Time travel fic and title is 'Back to the Future' joke.

During the endless camping trip in book 7, Ron asks Hermione to tell the story of that "disease sounding" fairy tale to pass the time. This becomes something of a habit, and Hermione tells the boys a series of traditional Muggle fairy tales.

GARY: Hey Cindy, remember the other day when we were talking about optimizations?
CINDY: Yeah, I wanted to circle back on that.

I generally am uninterested in generative AI that's too close to the real thing. But every once in a while there's a modern AI thing that's so glitchy and broken that it's strangely compelling. There's this generative AI knockoff of Minecraft that fails so hard at being Minecraft that it
