Recommendation: Past Zero Hour
This is a really fun adventure story! The tales of Regulus the BAMF cursebreaker. Reg is a (legally dead) Gringotts cursebreak and works out tricky puzzles. Also later becomes a nanny for baby Harry. Exciting and generally wholesome story. A little bit of pining in the Sev/Reg relationship, but they figure it out. Updates regularly!

Nice! I’m subscribed but didn’t see the new chapter. Love this story! Thanks for sharing.
Discussion: How to grow this forum?
I’ve been trying to move entirely away from Reddit’s hpfanfiction, but user growth here is slow. Anyone have ideas? Do we need more posts of recs? Links on author Discords or popular Ao3 fics?
Anyone else working on promotion?
REQUEST: Fics like Too Old to be this young

``` He was smiling. At Tom Riddle. He was going to get murdered before the year ends, he just knows.
Alternate universe/Post-Hogwarts. warnings: mature themes, drinking, swearing. An adult Harry Potter with all his knowledge and experience is transported to his 23yo body in a universe with no war. ```
This fic is 10x hilarious. Harry is an underemployed government drone studying for his Masters. Well written, hilarious, totally novel story. BAMF Harry.
Any recs for something similar?
I’m bumping this since we never found the answer. Though of course no idea if adding a comment makes anyone more likely to see my question.
Is anyone else missing massive amounts of posts from their communities? HPFanfiction is about two weeks old, we have 9-10 posts in that time window, and they are all gone as far as I can tell.
What’s that fic: Snape time travel
Snape dies & wakes up in his own body (maybe 5th year?) and decides to do everything better - he sets up a potions lab in his backyard, makes friends with his mom, rescues a muggle kid from some faeries and keeps some extra faeries in a cage. I think some birds follow him. AO3, incomplete. I think updated within the last 6 months. Anyone know the name?
I’m waiting for Weeping Angels, In the Bleak Midwinter, One Hundred Muggles, and Rigel chronicles updates.
My favorite is A Year like None Other by Aspeninthesunlight. It’s an original story written before HBP came out, so it’s like an alternate take on what could have happened in those years. It’s very wholesome, Severitus. Some violence and self harm but it all works out. Laugh out loud and smile.
Meta: is there a way to add tags on this site?
In the Bleak Midwinter Recommendation - BAMF Hermione Time Travel to 1920s
I’m loving this fic! Hermione in the 1920s. She goes back to meet Tom as a baby and raise him. The fic features a muggle pretending to be a wizard (successfully!), a struggle for werewolf rights, action, and romance. I binged the whole thing in one night.
Also posting a rec to try out this app - anyone using this?
