Xerosis

Yes, I am devoting one entire post just to one fic. Luckily, this fic can also be considered a resorting fic, so it ties nicely in with the previous post.

Xerosis by Batsutousai
Summary: Harry’s world ends at the hands of those he’d once fought to save. An adult-Harry goes back to his younger self fic. Semi-super!Harry
Warnings: Major Character Death, Alternate Universe, Dark!Harry, evil!Harry, semi-super!Harry, M/M, F/M (references to)
My Warnings/Opinion: Slash (but only in the very mild, most basic form), Ravenclaw!Harry, quasi-Vampire!Harry, time travel
Length: Complete, 135K

As to my opinion, this is one of the few stories (fan-fiction and otherwise) out there that I have ever read multiple times through in one sitting. I think I’ve reread this story at least 10 times now, if not twice that number. I get to the end of it and I go back to chapter 1 to read it again. I like it that much. It’s a do-over fic, but a far more awesome one that any I’ve ever read. For one thing, it’s funny despite a great deal of horror (especially in the beginning). And the relationship between Voldemort and Harry is largely the reason behind that humor. Now, if that’s not unexpected, I’m not sure I know what is.

Anywho. Read it or don’t, but don’t miss out just because my words have failed to properly convey how awesome this fic is.

Different Sorting/Resorting

As hard as it is to find a good, “Harry gets somewhere other than Gryffindor,” fic, it’s even harder to find one that is complete.  So, therefore I included a few that I might not have otherwise, simply because they are not WIPs.

Here’s painless_j’s AU Sorting List, in case you’re interested.

Sorted into Hufflepuff

For Want of a Quill by Veytta
Summary: First Year AU. Alternate Sorting. Ron finds a different compartment to sit in, Harry travels alone to Hogwarts and that small change changes the world in ways big and small. No pairings!
My Warnings: WIP
Length:  40K

Harry the Hufflepuff by BajaB
Summary: Luckily, lazy came up in Petunia’s tirades slightly more often than freak, otherwise, this could have been a very different story. AU. Not your usual Hufflepuff!Harry story.
My Warnings: Creative!Harry
Length: 29K, Complete (over 1000 reviews too)
Two sequels (both complete): Harry the Hufflepuff 2 and Harry the Hufflepuff 3 – Harry’s Year Off

The Misplaced Potter by chubby redburn
Summary: AU OOC. A tale in which Dumbledore makes a tiny mistake that changes Harry’s life. COMPLETED
My Warnings/Opinion: Could use a beta, but is still a readable and an enjoyable story.
Length:  47K

The Other Potter by Saelia (dead link, sorry!  As soon as I have a new one, I’ll update this one)
Summary: AU. Lily and James Potter were, as luck would have it, not home the night Voldemort attacked and was vanquished. Thomas Potter became the Boy-Who-Lived. Harry? Left with the Dursleys.
Warnings:  Slytherin- ish !Harry, Manipulative!Dumbledore.
My Warnings/Opinion: references of abuse, independent!Harry, twin to Boy-Who-Lived? (not certain), WIP – unfortunately, because it’s a really good fic
Length: 39K

Sorted into Ravenclaw

Accidental Hero, aka The Absentminded Ravenclaw by Nia River
Summary: ON HOLD. Freaky connections aside, does anyone else think it strange that Harry survived a Killing Curse with little more damage than a scar? Well, what if he hadn’t come through so unscathed? And what if the other damage was more mental than physical?
My Warnings/Opinion: Non-Linear progression, Luna/Harry, though it says it’s a WIP, it could be considered complete as is.

Xerosis by Batsutousai
Summary: Harry’s world ends at the hands of those he’d once fought to save. An adult-Harry goes back to his younger self fic. Semi-super!Harry
Warnings: Major Character Death, Alternate Universe, Dark!Harry, evil!Harry, semi-super!Harry, M/M, F/M (references to)

Length: Complete, 135K

Breaking Forwards by lastcrazyhorn

Length: 90K

Harveste Addams and the Sorcerer’s Stone by kyaru-chan
Summary: A little death can change so much. Delightful, isn’t it?
My Warnings/Opinion: Wonderful story. I liked it so much. Surprisingly enough, it only has around 200 reviews and that’s a shame. We should do something about that. Crossover with The Addams Family, Harry (pronounce Harry like the “Har” in “Hard” or “Harvest” as opposed to “Hairy”) is a also a crossdresser.  His friends are:  Hermione, Draco and Blaise (the male version, thank god).  In addition, there is Professor Snape and even he doesn’t know how to react to Harveste Addams. Much fun.
Length:  7k, Complete

Length:  84K

Length: 200K+

Warnings: Snape!Mentor
My Warnings/Opinion: Abuse, WIP
Length:  28K
