I understand why anyone would drop the series. I definitely wouldn’t call it good perse. It’s indulgently overwritten, and there are a lot of moments where characters get stuck in iterations of the same conflict over and over again (sometimes for hundreds of thousands of words, which is incredibly frustrating). It’s a strange read because so much of it doesn’t work — it embodies a lot of the worst variations of its trope — but when it does work? Man... I still remember some scenes/moments of that series because of how much it felt like I earnt them.

Also, this lady was cranking out a 5,000 word chapter per day for almost three years. That’s fucking bonkers to me.

 

I was in her Yahoo group back in the day while she was writing. She offered me a beta spot, but god damn I did not think I could handle that volume. She was an English teacher back then.

As much as I didn't enjoy the slash aspects, that was back in a time with wildly different standards, and it was good enough to have fun reading.

 

Wait, she was an English teacher...and she could crank out 5k words a day on top of her work? The fuck?

 

Confession: I had no idea what the 'Sacrifices' series is until today. Might try it; might not. We'll see.

The Draco Malfoy pairing doesn't exactly inspire enthusiasm in me. Or at all.

 

Honestly...its an absolute unicorn of HP fanfiction. Its a completed 7 year rewrite using a WBWL trope.

 

What's next, twin sister in Naruto- oh, wait.

Confession time: I've actually written a Naruto twin sister fic. Not completed, unfortunately, but ongoing.

Edit: with no bashing of the sister, nor anyone... though Danzo and the Third DO come close. I have some standards.

 

I know that I did read Sacrifices up until the fourth or fifth book, but I don't remember anything about it, other than eventually getting fed up with how angsty it was.

Confession: I don't mind the occasional bash fic.

 

I actively seek Snily.

I read this recently and enjoyed it very much:
"Come once again and love me"

Well, now. Any titles you might recommend, please? Because I don't think I ever read one and I am REALLY interested.

 

You probably know JBern's "Number Games", but if not, check it out:

There's a Harry/Pansy that's actually quite good but for the life of me I can't remember the title. @Sesc You're bound to know this one.

 

Quidditch fic? What about 'Loose Cannon'? Though a bit too much slice of life for my tastes, IIRC.

Edit: Author's summary:
He survived the war—now it's time to grow up. Fourteen months after the Battle of Hogwarts, an overheard, off-the-cuff comment turns Harry's life upside-down. Goodbye Auror training, hello Chudley Cannons! And witches ... lots of witches (but no harem). Warning: Many tropes were harmed in the writing of this fic, and Cursed Child never happened. OCs galore. NO MORTAL PERIL.
