Yep, I'm a Potter fan. Guilty as charged.
Carving this pumpkin was a monumental moment last year. For all his lamenting that I did not observe and facilitate "traditions", he was absolutely against me taking time for anything that was not "essential."
So on October 30, I was carving this guy up feeling morose as it had been days since he spoke to me. Then I had an epiphany.
I was getting satisfaction. My crafting skills are basically on par with a German Sheppard's, so the fact that this thing turned out alright was really encouraging. I was proud of it.
I remember thinking:
"I wouldn't have been allowed to do this if he was still talking to me ...."
And there it was. Something so small, so simple made me think that maybe this separation thing wasn't so bad after all.
Hi, this is very random but I'm actually writing a dissertation on Harry Potter Fanfiction and I'm looking for the 'big' fics, i.e. fics that lots of people in the fandom read - the most popular/famous ones that might even have their own sub-fandom (All The Young Dudes for example). Do you know of any Drarry ones like this? Thanks in advance!
Hey! I hope I'm not WAY too late on this — I know it's been sitting in my inbox for a while.
Here's a few that came to mind:

Then I haven't actually read these, but they might work as well:

I AM SO DONE WITH THIS WORLD!
For 5 nights in a row I keep having Harry Potter dreams (not that I am complaining about the Harry Potter part, after all I love Harry Potter) however these dreams keep getting weirder and weirder! After all my brain has to come up with new, fabulous Ideas to keep me entertained while I’m asleep! So in tonights dream world Voldemort owned a chamber of horrors in which he more or less locked us (Harry, Hemione an me; don’t know what happened to ron, i think later there was also tonks involved) in. So we got ourselves some tickets and passed the first door (I think from time to time this chamber of horrors had some similarities with an escape room). So the two of them just walked through that door and pushed me back (so I was still outside) the door shut close and the two of them continued alone. I’m still asking myself: WHY DID YOU DO THAT YOU LITTLE GITS! They fucking left me behind in Voldemorts maze-house-of-horrors-escaperoom thingy!
*Hum* On with the dream.
So I was trapped in the entrance hall (It was somewhere in the middle of nowhere, so I had to wait for them to return home with me...damn! My Dream-Self is way to dependent on other people!!!) I wandered around, looking for something entertaining (found some statue thingy of Salazar Slytherin; later on in turns out to be nothing but an entrance for employees; kept me entertained for half an hour though), when there were two middle aged moms discussing a boy who managed to get the group of children (probably a birthday party) inside by simply asking the door politely to open.
You can’t imagine how dumb I felt. Well, being nobody’s fool I decided to use the same method and tadaaaa it worked (turns out it was the method that worked my way throughout the whole maze-house-of-horrors-escaperoom thingy.) So I was finally inside...it was so fucking scary (there was nothing there yet but still, after all these little gits left me ALONE!) I made my way through the maze-house-of-horrors-escaperoom thingy by simply asking the doors to open, sometimes i was in a house, then the track was outside (don’t forget it was a dream, everything is possible in dreams...and the wizarding world, so fuck it) whenever I entered a room I just went: ‘Hey, would you tell me your secret?’ And then another door opened (still you are scared, because there could literally be ANYTHING behind that door) or one of these as humans disguised robots appeared out of nowhere (You know, the kind that only moves it mouth, and like one arm in one and the same movement for the whole time, and a recorded voice telling you where you have to go next) met three of them The last one just freaked me out because IT COULD ACTUALLY MOVE PROPERLY and it did that BEHIND MY BACK, so whenever I turned around it was somewhere else, and I just couldn’t stand that And then suddenly it went dark (even darker than it already was) and I thought my glasses were the problem so I took them off and tried to clean them up (it didn’t work) but I just knew that there was something around me. And it was moving. I got so scared, that I simply started running in any direction. Didn’t know. Didn’t care. So I ran and suddenly there was Voldemort chasing me and I dind’t know what to do, so I sped up and kept running. The track led me into a cave (small path on the side it was fucking dark and couldn’t see the floor of this bottomless pit) then, out of nowhere Voldemort attacked me. Somehow I could fight him off, then he attacked me again and I fell (not on the floor but into this big black nothing tight beside me)
I thought my dream would finally come to an end. Turns out I had to start all over from this fucking entrance hall. That’s where I teamed up with Tonks (don’t know how she got there) we made a walkthrough (after all, I already knew the way) then we were chased by voldemort again. We had the splendid idea of just stunning anything following us or getting in our way (including other ...contestants? participants? don’t know) However we acted like completely egoistic bitches. While running, we met Hermoine and (this time) Ron (don’t know how and when this happenend, but now Ron replaced Harry, and I somehow became Harry) So eventually the four of us reentered that damn cave, story repeates itself: voldemort (this time at least 4 of him) attacked us, we tried to fight him off, when it became clear thet we would loose, I had the genious idea to jump into the big, black nothing (after all that’s how I escaped the last time).
Turned out it was a trap to capture all of us. When we regained conciousness our feet were tied up and magnetically fixed to the ceiling of our cell. Hermoine found out that, if you struggled enough, you’d fall to the floor (but only to get pulled up again, after like 10 seconds) So we just hung there upside down. Again it went dark (so dark you couldn’t see anything) ...do you know that feeling in horror movies, when you know perfectly well, that there is someone right behind the main character but he/she turns around anyway? That is just how I felt. I knew there was someone. And I didn’t want to see him. Ron, however, completely ignored my hearts desire and casted Lumos (don’t know why he didn’t cut us loose, when he had his wand?! Little git!) So he slowly illuminated our cell. And of course the light hit the face that was like 2 inches from mine. Voldemorts face. (couldn’t have heard him breathing, after all he has no nose :D ) I got so terrified, that I started screaming. Loud. Really loud. Woke myself up that way. Me and everyone else in the neighbourhood.
Well, thank you for wasting so much time on my weird dreams. You will never get those precious minutes back, you know that, right? :P Hope you enyoyed, though. I didn’t. I am so done with this world and my damn overactive imagination
Ben yarın sabah altı buçukta uyanıp o gece o kaldırımda yanımda oturan adamı otogarda karşılamaya gideceğim.
Dilerim barışırız ve bu defa mutlu sonsuz olur.
İnsan bazen yolu unutsa da, bir gün mutlaka evine döner.
Her anlamda.
herkesi affettim, ama o gün bankta otururken hissettiğim şeyi unutamıyorum.
Yine beni karşılamaya gelmiş
