What you said about Percy following the rules is exactly what I had in mind.
Also, yes! Percy’s own father works at the Ministry, and I’m sure he must’ve been in awed every time Arthur returned home exhausted after a day of dealing with post-war problems.
I think Percy was a quite child - I love the older two, but I don't connect with their stories as much - because of the war. And nobody minded. Being quiet meant he could hide, being quiet meant he wasn't a liability. But then the war ended, and people saw him as weird.
Honestly, I agree. Being quiet isn’t a flaw or a liability. However, from what I understand, Percy was already thought of as weird since way before the war. There’s a lot of moments in the books where people mock him (mostly the twins). I think it wasn’t until after the war that people started trying to understand him.
Hari raised by Wolfstar :D
Hi, Anon! Thank you for voting! I’ll add it to my chart. Also, loved that you used Hari’s Indian name💜
I wanted to take the chance to also thank everyone who’s been voting, please keep them coming! The vote won’t end until I’ve finished (or mostly finished) my Marauders’ era part of the rewrite. If you’ve got any comments or questions about it, please let me know!
For anyone that’s wondering what the vote is about, you can go ahead and see it here!

Am I throwing whatever JKRoach wrote about werewolves out the window for the sake of my fic? Yes, yes I am.
I know most people who write for HP don't like Peter Pettigrew but with your rewrite, could you not sideline him as the 'just there' Marauder? He was just as capable as them in Transfiguration and Potions. I may not like him but he wasn't the guy to just throw his friends under the bus at 11 years old for a corn chip like how some people write him as
I thought the same thing, actually. It’s why you’re going to see a lot of Peter in the rewrite. You’ll get to know about his home life, his hobbies, favorite colors, the songs he likes the same way you’ll know about the rest. He’s flawed, yes, but he also has a lot of good traits.
Thank you for the request, though, Anon. I like how you think.
so you write on ao3
I have an account, but I haven’t posted anything yet. You can find me by the same username (thesoftrainbows).
I also have Wattpad (ew, I know), and will probably also post my HP Rewrite in FanFiction.net if I figure out how it works.
All of these accounts have the same username.
OH also, Twitter and Instagram are under the same name :)
Can someone please teach me how to add links in that pretty, organized way I’ve seen some people do? I don’t know how to explain it, but like you can name the link whatever you want and it’s not that long-ass jumble of letters and numbers.
SOMEONE TO STAY; Epilogue.
Part of my rewrite series, starting from the Marauders’ Era. More is coming soon.
❛ There’s a dream that used to hold Remus Lupin hostage during his darkest hours . . . ❜
It’s finally here! After months of announcing my work in progress, and years of fixing and outlining the Harry Potter world, I have finally posted the epilogue for what is sure to be a great journey, I hope you’ll show some love and support! Any feedback, comments, advices are welcome!
The Epilogue is very short — it’s meant to be, the rest of the chapters will go from 2,000-ish words and, if the inspiration strikes, more.
WATTPAD. AO3. 
Special thanks to @fen1s for being my beta reader!
Harry Potter Rewrite: Help!
I’ve been outlining more or less what I want the final result for my Harry Potter rewrite to look like but I’m stuck on two outcomes of Hari’s childhood:
NOTE: I have a headcanon in which the Potters are Indian, so James names his son Hari. I think I mentioned this before, if I didn’t, feel free to ask about it.
Petunia’s marriage starts falling apart when Lily dies.
Vernon didn’t let her go to her sister’s funeral because he was sure that the place would be crawling with “freaks”. Even if Petunia begged, he would still prevent her from going.
Vernon made nasty comments about Lily and James’ death, saying that they’re two less freaks to worry about.
Eventually Petunia leaves her husband and moves back in with her parents (who are alive in this version).
Petunia decides to go to college, a decision supported by her parents since they promised to help her financially and with the boys.
She studies to become an English teacher.
She loves her job. Also, she might fall in love with the History teacher.
She remarries, and it’s a man who treats her right and is good with the boys.
Both boys are treated equally while with her.
Dudley and Hari get along well. Although whenever Dudley returns from his weekends at his father’s, they fight a lot.
Hari grows up knowing he’s a wizard and knowing (more or less, because Petunia didn’t have all the details) what had happened to his parents.
Many more…
Remus, along with several other people who believed Sirius was innocent, start protesting and putting pressure on the Ministry so that they can give Sirius a proper trial.
Sirius is renamed innocent.
Dumbledore still refuses to hand Hari over to them, even though they were the rightful guardians of the child.
The last straw is when Dumbledore casually corrects them and says that Hari’s name has been changed to Harry.
They whitewashed his name. They were livid.
Remus and Sirius, along with some handpicked friends to help them, manage to kidnap Hari.
They take him to Wales, further away from Remus’ former home. They cast an insane amount of spells to hide themselves from Dumbledore. They were untraceable.
Other than the protections needed, they lived a muggle life.
They have other children (the names I’m still working out), there’s five kids in total.
Two of those children are werewolves, attacked at a young age by another wolf pack that’s not Fenrir Greyback. They—Remus, especially—wanted to bring them comfort when he found out about them.
Hari lives in a loud, chaotic household in the middle of nowhere.
Lyall Lupin eventually moves in with them because Remus worried for his father—the man was old and alone.
And many more…
NOTE: The outcome of the votings will determine the overall plot of Hari’s era. Choose wisely, what do you want to see?
I think Arthur would be everyone’s favorite grandpa. His own grandchildren would probably cringe a bit, but the muggle kids would feel SO proud to have impressed such an adorable old man. I think they’d bring him some of their favorite, most mundane muggle objects just because Arthur would understand the hype and geek out about it together. It’s not what Arthur intended, but once he realized how good it made these kids feel, he just allowed everyone to call him grandpa. Everyone is his grandchild now.
If any of those hate anons and death threats came from the snapedom, let me go out and apologize on their behalf. That is not what the rest of the snapedom is like. You have been very respectful and genuine in your discussions and criticisms on Snape. So I appreciate the sincerity. I hope you’re okay, mentally and emotionally despite receiving those asks.
Hey Anon, they did come from the Snapedom. But you don't have to apologize. I'm well aware that not everyone who stans Snape is like that, as I've come to realize by actually interacting with some of you (admittedly, there was a time where I was told that you guys were the "bad ones", but was proven very wrong once I went ahead to get to know you guys, which I'm glad I did - even if there's a lot that I don't personally agree with).
I do recognize that I came off aggressive, and so, I'm partly to blame for that. I will do better next time, and think things through next time when opening debates between our fandoms.
Thank you for the message, though. I'm okay, I was a little shaken at first but it's passed.
You really live off other people’s pain huh you fucking Dementor? 🥲
1. James Potter
Steps:
Get a white sheet
Cut eyes and a mouth into it
Put it over your head
It should turn out a little bit like this:
Failing that, you could also buy a skeleton costume and wear that. You will still look like James Potter!
Also, probably the best thing about this costume, it will also work if you want to be one of the following characters:
Remus Lupin
Sirius Black
Regulus Black
Lily Evans
Cedric Diggory
Nymphadora Tonks
Marlene McKinnon
Dorcas Meadowes
Fred Weasley
Colin Creevey
