(no subject)

So, I finally posted all of my 30_hath ficlets to AO3 yesterday during the spastic LJ thing. (DON'T READ THEM. THEY ARE NOT GOOD. Well, fine, I like the Founder fics, but the rest are mildly horrifying to re-read.)

And then I started browsing around the Harry Potter AO3 tags, and I completely forgot how much Remus/Sirius DOMINATES all Marauder-era fic.

I am CRAVING fic about The Prank Incident (you know, where Sirius uses Remus to almost kill Snape and James saves all their arses) but instead I'm finding a lot of Sirius/Remus shorts and some very good Lily fics.

I'll even settle for some Secret Keeper fics about how they heck they could have suspected Remus as the mole. They dynamic of Remus's position in the Marauders is complicated, and I have all sorts of feelings about it, and I just want fic! And R/S tends to ignore a lot of the balancing act.

I don't mind reading Sirius/Remus, even if it isn't my 'ship, ok? I found this fic which is a great story about Sirius following Remus to find out if he's the traitor and ends up as an AU.

Hey, flist, I know many of you aren't necessarily Harry Potter fans, but have you got any recs? Any rating, any pairings, I just want something about The Prank. Or pre-Halloween before the Potters were killed. Or even a post-PoA fic about Remus confronting Sirius for suspecting him.

*pokes the internet*

Recs and Draaa-maaaa.

Oh, and while I'm spending some time drifting around the Harry Potter fandom, I would like to take this opportunity to rec my two all time favorite Harry Potter fics.

Both by the same author, despite the fact that I found them in completely different ways at completely different times.

First is Hermione: A History by Nope. It is in many ways a mystery, set post-series, starring Hermione and the people around her. My favorite element is probably the fact that each voice comes across as completely different and unique, while remaining totally in character. Also, it's a solid epistolary fic, and those aren't common.

The second is Last Writes by Nope and I found it during one of my Regulus phases. This is a fic about Sirius after he falls through the veil, and it's fantastic and amazing and I can't say anything else without giving too much away. Just read it. Trust me on this one.

(My favorite part of traipsing through other fandoms is recognizing people from different places. It's nice when I'm pretty confident in the quality of an HP fic becuase I've read their DW stuff, say. :D)

(The most hilarious part is when I end up on old fandom wank and stumble across people I know from elsewhere. Or stuff that I was actually aware of at the time.)

(The crazy part is when I realize I was on the very, very edge of a wank fest way back in the LotR days. I need to stop mucking around in fandom history, but it's fascinating.)
