HBP spoilers within A Shakespearean-styled problem play set in the Harry-Potter-verse, this work of fiction (explaining and reinterpreting some portions of Book 6) aims to remain authentic to the style and language of literature produced in the Tudor and Elizabethan times.

The Hermann Chronicles

by Fairfield

58 Ratings, 0 Likes, 22 Favorites )


    This tale is for readers interested in adventures and perspectives that a canon character could not reasonably have.

      Is the House Cup a rigged game? Is Hermione Granger delusional? Is Harry Potter a bad thing? Is the Order of the Phoenix incompetent? Is the need for a hero a sign of society on the verge of collapse? Can an ordinary student betray everyone?

        The beta was lisa725 from Perfect Imagination. Lisa corrected the punctuation, offered encouragement, and made several good suggestions. Thank you, Lisa.

Why, party until they need medical attention, of course! (The following account thereof is what happens when several alleged adults start discussing the salacious potential of the HP-verse in a chat room--hence our group penname.)

        Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin

        by Fawkes_07

        277 Ratings, 0 Likes, 52 Favorites )

        This is a full-length Book Seven fic. Cliffhangers and unexpected twists abound, but don't look for beloved characters to die tragically before your very eyes--Fawkes_07 is all about redemption. Written for young readers but hopefully fun for all.

        I'm printing out a version for my kids in book format--I even found all the right fonts and everything. Hence the "artwork" in the chapter headings. What can I say, I'm more of a ceramics person than a drawing person.

        Can I note with pride that "Heirs of Slytherin" was just chosen as a Featured Story on MNFF? *glows*

        The Sorting of Suzie Sefton

        An old wand finds its witch at long-last as a new Muggle-born enters the wizarding world. Suzie finds more than a few diversions along the way, from her first trip to Diagon Alley to the Hogwarts Express to the Sorting Ceremony. Her first encounter with Severus Snape is particularly dramatic—and potentially traumatic.

        Not DH-compliant. A “sister story” to A Long Vernal Season.

        Warning: Spoilers for A Long Vernal Season and for Death’s Dominion, to which Long Vernal Season is the sequel.

        A Long Vernal Season

        by MMADfan

        1,058 Ratings, 0 Likes, 88 Favorites )

        Severus Snape had believed that, for him, life after the Dark Lord was an impossibility, that his death was not merely justice, but necessity. He has survived, though, and now he must learn to live his new, unexpected life, and to find something beyond the narrow existence to which he was once bound. A Snape-centric post-war fic.

        A Death’s Dominion sequel, but may stand alone. Not DH-compliant. DH-disregarded. Rated M for overall content. Much of it is "T," but the ratings rise to MA later for a reason, hence the switch to an M-rating for the earlier chapters. Watch the individual chapter summaries and author’s notes for ratings, warnings, and the characters appearing in that chapter.


        Part One finds Severus dealing with some very immediate and dangerous consequences of his final confrontation with the Dark Lord more than three months before.
