    Taure's Alexandra just couldn't compete. That's why he had to switch to Victoria.

    I decided to skim through this gem:

    Wonderful one dimensional characters. It's nice not to have to bother with nuance or thinking for more than five seconds.

    If that was four feet each of those letters would be two inches tall. Some iffy math for you.

    Dragon Chronicles 1: Muggle-Raised Champion by Stargon1 reviews
    The day before Harry Potter was due to go to Hogwarts for the very first time, his aunt and uncle informed him that he wouldn't be going. Instead, he was sent to Stonewall High. Now, three years later, the Goblet of Fire has named him as a TriWizard Champion. What that means is anyone's guess, but to Harry, one thing is clear: he can finally get away from Privet Drive.

    So stupid, as if the Dursleys would have a say in the matter.

    Fostering a Nightmare by NinjaFairy86 reviews
    A ten-year-old foster child named Tom Riddle showed up on the Granger's front doorstep with his social worker in the summer of 1990. Hermione spent the following years adjusting to life with her new foster brother; so, she never realized how often he kept an eye on her. "I've always watched you, Hermione; and you've always been mine." [Magical AU]

    Hang on, he said that to her? When they're both 10?!? And the story is categorized as romantic?!?!?!?

    I think I just threw up a little.

    After Zoe was betrayed by Heracles, she meet a cursed warrior Perseus that only whishes to die and end his life but a curse from his father Kronos does not allow him to escape punishment. The story starts with how Perseus was born to Kronos and how he received his curse. Percoe but will be a Percy/multi until he manages to win Zoe's heart. Rated M for violence and lemons.

    Title is The cursed warrior

    It's a really shit fic, plus from the PJO cesspit

    Don't read it, but I think it's a summary shitty enough to be on here.

    Yes, I would expect that this is just a bit different from the Harry Potter movies.

    'SlashLover1996'

    There is no way in hell the person who wrote that was born in 1996. It must mean something else. Only a 10-year-old constructs sentences like that, never mind the premise.

    Easy Prey by TIMTAMS2828
    Fandoms: Miraculous Ladybug
    Summary

    Holy shit it's miraculous but with wolves, Hogmoths Still an ass and Lilas still a bitch but we have alphas and mates now!

    He froze too, almost if waiting for her response. She would give him a response alright. Him being Distracted by what seemed her eyes? She pushed all her body weight and flipped him over, so she was top.
    She stared down at her prey snarling at him teeth bared. The confusion and cation in her eyes ears back once again. He didn’t even fight it?

    “WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?” she growled at him fangs out and rearing for his exposed neck!

    Cringe.

    I think it's aimed at late preteens and young teens, but it does have a pretty large adult following. The Miraculous Ladybug thread over on Spacebattles has 110 pages for example.

    Not sure that this is as bad as some of the others on this thread, but I think it's at least an honorable mention.

    1. Funny coincidence how only one letter seperates the writer's name and the main character's name.

    2. I don't want to read the story to find out, but any particular reason why the Dursleys would send Elena to the orphanage but not Harry? Or is this one of those stories where James and Lily survive but are complete and utter monsters to their own children?

    3. The summary sounds suspiciously like a WBWL story, with Elana replacing Harry. And I should know, I had a WBWL phase.

    4. Honestly, I'm weirdly surprised more stories don't involve the Dursleys sending someone to an orphanage.

    5. Should someone tell the author that it's Canon that the Wool's Orphanage was already torn down and replaced with offices by 1997, and quite likely earlier than that? Or is she that set on making the "similarities" between Elena and Voldemort as ridiculously obvious as possible?

    This sounds about right. People will murder any character to make their own plot work. It takes less skill to do so.

    I think I'm loving this thread a little too much.

    The Fifth Marauder by Innocent Huffleclaw

    Quinn Marley is a muggleborn, but also a Metamorphmagus. She goes to Hogwarts and meets Lily Evans, Remus Lupin, and Dashia Greene(OC), and they become good friends. She soon becomes friends with James Potter, Sirius Black, and Peter Pettigrew. She comes across many challenges through her years at Hogwarts, bullying, betrayal, and at some point relationships. I hope you like it!

    Just sorting by new on fanfic.net and there's always at least a couple. There's like 800,000 Harry Potter fics at this point and most of them are utter trash, this thread would never end.
