    Title: Learning to Breathe
    Author: onoM
    Rating: T
    Genre: Action/Adventure/Humor
    Pairing: Harry/Ginny
    Status: WIP
    Summary: Harry Potter is 16 years old. He already defeated Voldemort, with the help of his Godfather Sirius Black. Now he is in for the biggest challenge of his life: attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

    Yes, I know it's Harry/Ginny. But I'm really liking this fic anyway. Couldn't decide between the Godlike section, independent section, romance section or humor section. Decided to put it here in General for that reason. Harry's power and skills are pretty much off the charts, but he's essentially a mindless soldier, who is now trying to adjust and learn about how the noncoms live. Lots of mentions and comparisons to Full Metal Panic if you're familiar with that. Some nifty transmutation powers and such. And now with the latest chapter involving a 70' Nundu terrorizing Kenya, and Harry taking it down, I figured I should post it here since it hasn't been posted yet. I'm a sucker for a good humongously gigantic crazy powerful creature.

    This is an alternative take on Jeconais' abandoned fic Aftermath. And yes, Jeconais gave everyone permission to pick up that story or write their own version.

    Really, really good story so far, though I only skimmed it and read chps. 1 and 2. I like what I see. Thanks for bringing attention to it, nonjon. :p

    I like it and I've been following it since the first chapter was posted. It hasn’t disappointed me yet, so I highly recommend it.

    I like this story very much. It gives a different perspective of Harry I've never seen before. Can't wait for the next update

    I don't like his haircut.

    Or his bag.

    And… can't get into the fic much, either.

    This has been updated and I must say that I quite enjoyed it. The new mission will surely bring a new twist to the H/G relationship.

    I thought it was okay, despite the GW love. 3/5

    I read it a while ago, and it was fine until a certain point, but then it got boring in epic proportions.
