Dark creatures love Harry Potter.
He's just the most adorable little dark lord in the Isles.
Pure crack, absolutely hilarious.
Seconding this.  I'm halfway through, and its definitely hilarious.

It really gets down cultural differences between magicals and muggles really well, too, if you pay attention to the dialogue.

Started reading this, and while there are the occasional misspellings/grammar errors, it's a fun fic so far. Good find, sikle.

Harry Potter and the Rune Stone Path

10 year old Harry finds a chest left by his mother with books on some of her favorite subjects. Discovering he has a talent for understanding and creating runes sets Harry onto a very different path than anyone had expected. Shortcuts, inventions, and a bit of support go a long way! Pairings: H/Hr/FD/NT (possibly one more). Minor Ron/major Molly bashing and GreaterGood!Dumbledore.

This part sounds okay. At least in theory.

Pairings: H/Hr/FD/NT (possibly one more). Minor Ron/major Molly bashing and GreaterGood!Dumbledore.
This part, however, suggests it would be no loss if the author choked to death on his own tongue.

I think I'll pass on this one.

It's not nearly as bad as it sounds. In fact, as of the previous chapter, Dumbledore is essentially removed from the story and I can't even recall the last time I saw Ron or Molly mentioned.
 
That it feels the need to bash at all is good enough reason to write the thing off as not worth the time.

A Harry/Tonks by kathryn518 the author of I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
That was fairly interesting. Followed.

Oh noes, we must agree with all things canon and can never try a different way!

Well, whatever. If you wanna skip over a 30+ chapter story because of the certain bits of the first five chapters, that's your loss.
 
When the author goes out of their way to portray a character as worse than they actually are it makes them look childish and spiteful.

the reverse is also true, cases in point the Fanon Malfoys and Snape, not to mention the fanbase 'addiction' to Slytherin Girls and Blaise.

I'm pretty sure that one is somewhere on fanficauthors.net though it may be other places too.

This oneshot's a Harry/Astoria Greengrass pairing, looks fairly heartwarming at first; then, it mindfucks you.

@Lord Geryon: I'm going to start on this 'Rune Stone Path', but I'm not expecting much. Any writer who's proud enough of including bashing to put it in the summary is not very likely to make a good story. If you think that the problem with bashing is that it's not in line with canon, then you don't get what bashing is.

That's on here. From what I remember it was only 2 chapters and was done by Cypher3au I think.  It was a Harry/Fleur fic where they get together on the night before her wedding as a fling after she finds out about it.

The Night Before, the second chapter is only on DLP to my knowledge.

Read this when the rec was new. As already said, Ron and Molly did not appear much, I don't think it is worthy to be in the summary.
But unlike was said Dumbledore was only now removed.
To be honest I'm currently reading it more for the writer's recs with each chapter than for the fic itself...

Trial By Troll

The boy from the train was right. In order to be Sorted, they really did have to fight a troll.

This was good. Liked how Harry handled it. Hope to see more of this 'verse.

Good find.

Wizards are utterly insane in this one. :lonegunman:   :crazy: I liked it, though; it would also make canon make more sense, since Harry nearly getting killed at least once a year is something normal.

The Last Enemy by Luolang
Summary: The Hallows were not an ending. Harry returns to the Forbidden Forest after the Battle and finds the Stone – the start of his salvation and the path to his damnation.

A nice story. Thanks for sharing. In fact, I'm now half tempted to get back into writing myself..

@da_fox2279,

Can you give a bit more detail? What's worth reading about that one?

Da_fox's is an... interesting take on canon Harry turning Dark Harry. It left me with a sense of "what happens next".

It has a Harry who decides to conquer Death for everyone - as in, make sure that nobody will die ever again. His methods are rather questionable, though, thus Dark Harry. Favorited.
