    I recently "read" a fic , where a genie appears to harry and tells him how Manipulative Dumbledore is and everything else, just because.

    The Many Faces of Harry Potter by Fayanora reviews
    Harry Potter is a wizard, which surprises him. But Harry Potter is also a Multiple, which surprises everyone. But that's not the end of the surprises. Note: Trans!Harry eventually. If this bothers you, take your transphobic self elsewhere.

    How can you be eventually trans? You either are or you aren't.

    Taking a guess; it's about the realisation.

    Not quite, many trans people ultimately never get surgery at all. But you could say that starting hormone treatment or presenting as the preferred gender is when someone "becomes" trans, I suppose.

    Does anyone know what a Multiple is? :confused:

    This will of course be intelligently and competently handled by the author.

    You guys forget that this story is set in a magical world. Transfiguration helps a lot on this regard, and you can hex every transphobic oppresor that doesn't agree with your worldview.

    Nah. I'm pretty sure multiple means special snowflake Tumblr 'headmates', not the real medical condition.

    I first heard about this particular insanity a few years ago when I read a news report of the Sydney University Branch of National Labor Students breaking away from the national organisation. They gave a list of grieves, among them: "A prominent member of the caucus, now a National Office Bearer, who believes in ‘headmates’ – other identities that occupy your body, and can claim different ethnicities or sexualities, thus allowing you to join an autonomous caucus (for instance queer or women’s) you were not otherwise entitled to join."

    Edit: And yes I was right. Headmates in chapters 10, 13 and 16

    Has no-one heard of sarcasm?

    Beyond that, the actual condition (DID, incidentally - MPD is outdated language) does have instances of self-states with different identities than the primary.

    This is the dumbest fucking derail. Have some content.

    "CHAPTER Granger. . . Draco always u13.[Excerpt C13 : " The man clucked his tongue. "You have no originality ses that term to call his father." "Which one? The monkey or the bastard?" Hermione let out a brave snort..."] DM/HG/HP. READ ON. R&R"

    "Draco has a white rose. The rose is stained with Harry Potter's blood, sweat and tears. It stands in a glass cabinet suspended by Magic on Draco's desk. The nymphs in the snow globe next to it are scared of it."

    "Draco Malfoy, age 180, has a terrible curse on him from when he was sixteen. Some say it's a mericle but not him. He lost his love the day the curse started and since then he's been suicidle and sick, but nothing can kill him."

    "During the Second War Ron is killed and Hermione is forced to relive the day he was murdered at his funeral (horrible summary, but it's better than it sounds)."

    "Everything ever to exist has an opposite. An up and a down, a happy and sad, a big and a small. Life and death. 350 years ago, there was a girl with The Senses, but something else as well. A negative particle. Now, Voldemort has gotten hold of the positive, and the only thing to keep him from becoming more powerful is that one negative particle. Jessica Mauring has The Senses and the negative as well, and is fighting to stay alive. The girl began this war, unknowingly. Will Jessica become her opposite, and finish it, or will the particle become the death of her, as it has for the previous three owners"

    "Ginny starts a Hogwarts News Paper. It seem's like a good idea at first but she never heard the saying Cruisty killed the cat. One person can save her from the most unhumman doom but will he?"

    The following two are particular favourites.

    "I wrote this fic in all of ten minutes.Its not great but I like it.Harry and Snape are a lovers. Until Harry kicks the bucket. Sorry everybody but I figured you should know going into it that is was written to make you wanna cry."

    "If I wrote a summary, wouldn't that make people not want to read it? Exactly why would I do something like that? I want people to read my stuff. Isn't that the whole point of this?"

    Humanity has evolved and the Secondary Genders change the world! Harry Potter was not expecting these sudden changes that came with being an Omega. The Wizarding World was not expecting it either, but certainly took the revelation much better than the Muggle World did. This opened up new avenues for them to approach. A/N: Omega-verse. Sigma-Harry/Alpha-Voldy. GoF/AU. SLASH.
