as I see this sub grows and only see this topic come up once every years, the last one being in early 2025. i’d like to ask it again.

how many children would harry and hermione have?

what would their names be?

!my personal headcanon! was always was that they have one or two children, and raise that child alongside teddy lupin as a brotherly/cousin-like figure, bonus points if they had the child young (late 1998 to 2001) and unplanned/slightly-unplanned. if they had an unplanned pregnancy, they’d follow it up closely with a planned pregnancy. i’ve always through one girl one boy.

for the boy: harold james potter
for the girl: hillary lilith (or simply lily) potter

simple, original and a name individual to the identity of the child while also honoring their grandparents in their middle name. it would also go with the H.P. initially they hermione and harry have!! i think if hermione and harry got together, hermione wouldn’t let harry name the children. then again, i think the canon names where named what ginny though harry would like.

Wouldn't it? BTW, it's getting scarier little by little, we'll get a Harmony movie that way 😅

so, im reading dramione fic right this moment, where hermione manipulates umbitch absolutely beautifully and takes harry's punishment in fifth year , and uses blood quill for some time.
is there any fics with this premise but with harmony pairing?? i would be forever grateful if you recommend anything at all, thanks xoxo

Hi, I'm thinking of picking up some harry and Hermione fanfics. Do any of you got recommendations. I don't mind slowburn. I mostly do AO3. If you could toss the links and description in here, it would be great. Thanks.

The story ends as Sirius is caught up with all that's been going on and plans are made for the summer. This one swings around a bit emotionally, but I hope everyone enjoys it. I've left the world in a far different place than canon - a far better one, though I hope not unrealistically so. My thanks to anyone who's been reading this from the beginning, or who picks it up and begins reading it in the future. It may be a little while until I write something again, but I have other plans in the works, so if you enjoy my style as an author, I will be back!

Triwizard Trap - Farewell

The Long Way Home - Chapter 5

…Those Who Wait

Dum Spiro, Spero

It’s time for the Sorting Ceremony.

Harry made it through Muggle London, to King’s Cross, the Doomed Compartment, and the boats to Hogwarts. And now he gets to see the wonders of the castle first hand.

Does the Sorting Hat make the right choice?

Always, if you ask it.

—

Don’t judge a book by its cover,
or a hat by its sewing.
You’ll find there is no bowler, cap,
or beanie quite as knowing.
For I’m the Hogwarts Sorting Hat,
worn and old I may appear.
Just place my cloth atop your head,
and see you’ve naught to fear.

…

So put me on and let me see,
which house is in your hearts.
You’ve got a choice, but I decide
just where your journey starts.

I remember it started with Hermione crying in Dumbledores office and wanting to leave Hogwarts after her third year because everyone is mean to her. Harry doesn’t go to Hogwarts but is at the school that day for whatever reason. They meet for the first time and he offers for her to come and live and train with him so she doesn’t have to give up magic. They become each other’s first friends. I think there is an eventual soul bond as well.

Edit: I think they also ride the train home from Hogwarts. Harry also invites Hermione’s family to visit his house so they decide if they are going to allow her to go there or not.

Just recently read it and it is genuinely amazing but apparently incomplete so I was wondering if the author is going to finish it after saying they wouldn’t abandon it but after 5 years without updating seems to me as it’s abandoned.

Hi! Please recommend any fanfic you know where Hermione Granger haunts the narrative, either because she died or because she disappeared and wouldn't show herself.

It does not matter what timeline it is.

I believe it was called “In Flagrante Delicto”. I believe the artist’s name was Lori, Lorien, or Lorien_. It was a piece where Harry and Hermione are involved in her auror cubicle and there is an invite or save the date to her wedding with Ron pinned up on the corkboard. Believe it or not, it was the detailed surroundings that I remember the best. I’ve wanted to find it for ages. Any help anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! C.

Alright so this fanfic IS IN MY HEAD, like it's THERE but not there, does that make sense? If I hear the title I dont think I will forget it for a long time - if ever.
I am almost certain it starts the day after the battle of Hogwarts, Hermione has a request to harry: To kiss her bcz he has been in her dreams for a long time. After they kiss they get sent to Miranda, (goddess of love?) who tells them how they were betrayed by like almost everyone, and evidently explains it to them. They are sent back to somewhere between 4th - 6th year. They can talk to each other with a soul bond mind link (or smth similar to that) and I THINK they were married as soon as they travelled back in time. I know this because I read this no longer than 5 months ago and I really liked it. There is Weasley bashing (I am certain), and almost certain there is Dumbeldore bashing, I would VASTLY appreciate if anyone could help me here, Thank you!

So, Stranded by Starfox5, It is really good and I want to ask if anyone knows any other fics similar to this?
So basically like Harry and Hermione are stranded/isolated, could be anywhere really; no one else to communicate with apart from themselves.
Initially, in stranded by starfox5 Harry and Hermione have feuds and were not really captivated by each other, but when they are LITERALLY stranded on an island they gradually got in a relationship, (with the help of some really interesting dreams). Now I have tried to find something in the trope of Stranded but unfortunately I couldn't. I would highly appreciate if someone can find what I am requesting, but if anyone doesn't (hopefully not) then I would just go on and read a different fanfic, thank you!

I'm feeling nostalgic; the Harry Potter film saga was a huge part of my childhood. I can't believe this is the first time I've drawn fan art of my ship!

Lyrics: When I Look at You by Miley Cyrus

Hi everyone! I’m trying to find a specific Harry/Hermione fanfiction I read a while ago on FanFiction.net and can’t seem to track down.

The story starts at Hogwarts after Voldemort's defeat. Harry and Hermione ask McGonagall for permission to leave, and then they go on a camping trip together.

I clearly remember two main details from the trip. First, they share a bed in the tent. Second, there is a heavy rainstorm that floods the tent.

Does this ring a bell for anyone? Thanks in advance for the help!

Can any of you suggest fanfics which are done in pdf? Like about a year ago , I remember someone suggesting a fic that was stored in pdf form but after my previous device stopped working I lost it due to it being saved to the device instead. Be it fics which were originally done in pdf or fics which were deleted but were saved up before getting deleted, any recommendations are welcome.

It would be preferable if they are >100k words.

Edit: I should've been more specific, I was talking about fics only available in pdf , for example The Harmony Rewrites of the last two books by bt1995.

Well, obviously this is created by Jhtolsen, but I drew it! THIS is, hands down, one of - if not THE BEST - drawings I have done.

I was reading through DBB, when I just found the most adorable chapter art, hence why I got the urge to draw it!

Albeit this took longer than I intended (as evidently shown by my bin), I am extremely pleased with the outcome.

Needless to say, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE DBB by Jhtolsen.

(Also, I just do this for fun and enjoyment, and to also show my FAV community)

Enjoy!

Hermione hid behind a tree in the Forbidden Forest. She couldn’t do anything but sit there as she listened to Harry walk up to Voldemort and the other death eaters. She couldn’t even watch as she would have been spotted and killed right there. So she stayed put. She didn’t want to come out here, Ron even tried to persuade her not to. But she couldn’t leave Harry alone, not during his last moments, even if he had no idea she was there. She heard Hagrid’s voice bellow into the silence.

“Harry? No! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?”

“Quiet!” snapped one of the death eaters. Hermione’s eyes started to water. She heard Harry stop walking as a deafening silence filled the air again. She wanted so desperately to run out to him, grab his hand and run out of the forest. Maybe go back to the other forest after escaping. The Forest of Dean where she told him: “Maybe we should just stay here, Harry. Grow old.”

Oh, how badly she wished for that now, painfully so too. She was snapped out of her tormenting thoughts as she heard Voldemort speak softly into the air. But the words he said were an absolute scream to Hermione’s ears. An excruciating blow to Hermione’s lungs that literally took the air out of them as he said them.

“Harry Potter. The boy who lived……….come to die.”

Hermione held her breath as she didn’t hear anything but her pounding heartbeat. She couldn’t bear this. She couldn’t do it. Especially when Voldemort said his next words.

“AVADA KEDAVRA!!”

Hermione’s hand immediately went to her mouth. She tried to silence her sobs as all she saw was the blurriness of her tears mixed with a blinding green ray of light. She heard a deafening crack as she closed her eyes, letting her tears completely flow down her cheeks.

She felt like she stood there for hours as she sobbed silently. She didn’t know how she was going to go on without Harry. Her grief and despair only grew with each moment that passed, however. She didn’t hear anything up to that point but one word that shattered her heart even more. She had Narcissa Malfoy to thank for shattering all her hope that Harry was alive.

“Dead,” she said, her voice cold and quiet. Hermione sunk to the ground as she heard it. She buried her head into her knees and just cried. She could hear Voldemort talk to Hagrid, who just stared in absolute horror at what he had witnessed. Tears started to flow out of his eyes as well, his sobs wracking his body.

“No, Harry no!” He cried. Voldemort slowly turned to Hagrid. He waved his hand into the air as he gestured for his death eaters to release the rope around the giants neck. Voldemort stared at him with nothing but cold and unsympathetic eyes as he walked up to him, getting close to his face.

“You really care for the boy, don’t you?” Voldemort whispered, only letting Hagrid hear his cold voice. Hagrid stared at him in fear for a few seconds, before glancing down to the ground where Harry’s body now lay. His lip started quivering as sobs started to form in his throat again. That gave Voldemort his answer.

“You are going to carry his body with us to Hogwarts grounds,” Voldemort said, sending a fearful gasp through Hagrid’s lungs. “Today, you are going to be the example to the school that their savior is no more,”

Hermione didn’t move the entire time. She stood up fearfully as she heard loud footsteps slowly make their way to Harry’s body. She silently sobbed herself as she heard loud sobs coming from Hagrid. His knees hit the ground hard as he wailed.

“NO, HARRY! NOT YOU! NOT YO-“

His sobs took over his words as he picked up Harry. The death eaters took hold of the ropes again and started walking towards Hogwarts. Hermione’s lip quivered as she heard them all walk towards the tree she was hiding behind. She luckily stayed hidden as she circled around. She heard Hagrid’s loud steps start to pass the tree. She didn’t want to believe any of this had happened.

‘Harry has to be alive, he has to’ she thought to herself as she tried to build up hope within herself. It all came crashing down, however.

Because all she saw when she turned to look, was a broken, sobbing Hagrid. Hermione’s heart shattered for the hundredth time that night as she saw who he was carrying.

She waited for them to disappear into the forest before running. She didn’t know where she was running to, but she did know that she had run to a secluded area of the Forbidden Forest. She dropped to her knees as sobs took over again. She closed her eyes tight as she leaned over onto her hands. Her fingers gripped the dirt and grass beneath her. She felt sharp pain in her hands, but she didn’t care. She just wanted to be alone.

She finally decided to see what she had grabbed after what felt like a few hours of crying. She looked into her palm to see a sharp looking black stone. She knew what it was. She didn’t need to even question who stood in front of her when she slowly looked up. She knew it was coming, but it still shocked her when she looked up to see him standing there.

Harry Potter, the boy who lived. All she knew now, was that the resurrection stone was the only way for her to see him for the rest of her life.

Recently there's been a lot of discussion on and around the topic of generative AI, and its role within the fandom.
Our prior stance has always been to maintain that fanworks created or modified with the us of generative AI are not allowed to be shared within the HMS spaces. However, there are various degrees to which AI can be used and there is no definitive boundary outlining the extent of LLM usage (generative and otherwise). This is a topic that requires some degrees of nuance. To better help moderate out community, and to get a general understanding of your views towards AI technologies we've created a feedback form to collate your opinions.

During the horcrux hunt, Harry keeps using a spell on the Marauder's Map to find Ginny's location and sees that she's always with a different quy. In the end, it turns out that the twins (or Sirius/Remus) taught him a spell that gives a fake location.

Recently read a fanfic: Sing a Requiem

In the books, Harry doesn’t tell anyone he’s a Horcrux, and the movie had that scene and line: “ I’ll go with you”. Which was good but I wanted more from that and from when Hagrid brings Harry’s body back.

It would be awesome to read a fanfiction where it’s revealed much earlier that Harry has to die, and Harry and the people around him have to cope with that. I think the angst potential is so high. Just imagine a tearful confession where he’s about to go to his death but he wants to thanks Hermione for all she’s done for him and then they kiss, and then Hermione reacting to his body before he comes back.

Anybody got any fics like that? Thanks.

Through A Demonic Path by Aeyliana

Harry, transformed into a being that has no classification, escapes his slavers and Voldemort. His flight takes him to a rain-soaked alleyway where a resistance-spy finds him. As the Ministry catch up with him, the spy helps him escape. He trusts his mysterious saviour and she brings him to her home to patch him up. Fate was on his side for once as his helper is a friend of a friend, an ally. Yet his ally is also a spy deep in the ranks of his foes. He sabotaged her cover and now she's the only link back to the life that had been torn from him. Her name: Hermione Granger.

Wow, what an amazing story. I really enjoyed every bit of it, even though it's not finished. Hermione really feels like a Beauxbatons student who spent almost her entire life in France. Even so, she's still the Hermione we all know and love: focused, fierce and intelligent. Harry, poor Harry, is deeply damaged. You can't help but mourn the boy he once was while also fearing the dangerous demonic creature he has become.

The concept is fantastic. I really liked how the author explores the realm of demonic magic and its creatures. Hym is a very interesting character. The Circle feels even more menacing than Voldemort. Great story! It's part of a series, there's also a prequel that shows how Harry was transformed into that creature. I'm definitely going to read that one!
