    Looking for Time Travel Fic?
    All I can remember is that it's a Harry goes back in time story but there is a particular scene about half way through the story where Harry joins the Hogwarts professors for (Christmas?) dinner and someone asks (I think it was either Trelawney or Sinastra) where Remus is and Harry accidently reveals he knows Remus is a werewolf by answering "that it's the full moon tonight".

    Thanks!

    Looking for oneshot in oneshot/ideas collection fic. Genre: humor.
    Harry as a child gets summoned into a fantasy-land as a hero and starts saving damsels etc. Then, he goes to Hogwarts. In a first year he debates what sword to use before fighting a troll.
    Thanks.

    Harry searches for magical treasures

    The story starts of with Harry, Ron and Hermione looking up all the legendary magical items and treasures that could give the user some power boost and they search the Hogwarts library and try to trace their whereabouts because according to Harry he has no chance against Voldemort otherwise.

    I might be wrong but I think there is also a scene in here where Harry and Hermione argue with Ron that the muggle world is far superior then the magical world but Ron successfully argues that its not the case, that's all I remember.

    Any help would be great :).

    Forging the Sword is what you're probably thinking of.

    Looking for a story where Harry gets sent back in time to when Voldemort was still a young Tom Riddle. If I remember correctly, Harry got involved in WW2, was nicknamed The Count, and fought against Grindelwald. It was a completed, lengthy fic.
    Thanks.

    Looking for the story where Harry sees Trewlaney is about to deliver another prophecy and Sliences her, because he was fed by the prophecies and doesn't want them to influence his life again.

    I am looking for the name of a fanfic I read a while back. Harry is really powerful and has a basically an endless potential and can do the impossible as long as he doesn't know that it is impossible. (He melts down a galleon at one point. This is not possible in this particular fiction.) I think that the pairing is Harry/Ginny and Ron/Hermione but could be wrong. Any help would be great.

    I recognise the story, but not by name. For anyone else, it's a ficlet based on the idea that magic is based on belief. At least 3 years old. Try checking Rorschach's odd ideas

    Taking control by fake a smile has the 'can do impossible, if doesn't know' part, not sure about the galleon. It's H/G.

    Could it be Harry Potter and the Golden Needle (https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4340385/1/Harry-Potter-and-the-Golden-Needle)?

    Harry has an idea of how to break the rules of Transfiguration, and it actually might work. Maybe. Plenty of other things happen too. No slash and no pairings as yet.

    Cool. Thanks everyone. I think it was taking control. I will have to look at the golden needle. Could be interesting.

    Looking for a Harry/Fleur fic. The story is rather cliche, but it was one of the first fics I read. I know the story should be on my followed list, somewhere but I'm not really sure.

    It's a wrong boy-who-lived Harry story where Harry has a twin brother. Harry ran away from home or something because of neglect, the story then take the unusual route for this cliche of having this utterly destroy the Potter's reputation. Fast forward to the TWT and something happens meaning that Fleur needs a bodyguard. Harry somehow ends up with the job (I'm not sure how he because a mercenary) and pretends to be a Beauxbatons student as a cover. Getting to Hogwarts he finds his parents working there and (naturally) he's called as the fourth champion which destroys his cover.

    I'm pretty certain the story is both dead and terrible but I'm getting a strange nostalgic feeling about it.

    That's it. I recognise the last chapter and it's as bad as I remember.
