Wild Magic - Chapter 32

·         NOTE:
I added a 'casting' channel to discord.

~

Harry slept wonderfully after his time with Lavender. She didn't join him in bed, content for the quicky on the couch, but had left him with wink and a kiss. He had a feeling that this wasn't going to be the last time they were together. The sobering thought of getting yet another witch pregnant was enough to douse his good mood. He really needed to be more responsible about that....

Apple Pay Suggestions

Apple Pay is adding a fee for New Subscribers to Patreon.

Existing & Returning Patrons won't have to deal with it. However, this is a site-wide change. My suggestion - Swap to the Patreon website to sign up for something, or use Android if you're on mobile.

Hopefully, you have other options than Apple Pay.

Miscalculation - Chapter 7

Harry stepped out of the tailor wrapped in acromantula silk. It was a muggle style suit that he had ordered a dozen in shades of black and gray. He had a cape added to help it blend into wizard fashion. It wrapped around his shoulders and flowed like cloak. He could easily shuck it off to use as a distraction, break line of sight, and to blend in with the muggle world. Acromantula silk had the added benefit of being waterproof, nearly indestructible by normal wear and tear, and accepted encha...

Somewhere Safe - Chapter 43

Harry woke up with Padma snuggled against his chest. He had to hand it to her, sleeping naked together was a wonderful idea for a date. There hadn't been much conversation, if any, and he wanted to change that. He would make more of an effort to talk to everyone in the coven from now on. Leaning on the scant information he had from the other world wasn't going to do him any favors.

"Padma," Harry whispered.

She mumbled something in reply. He kissed her on the forehead and held her...

Paused Story Results

I ended the poll due the obvious selections.

Stay Alive and Hope Reborn will be paused for a bit. I'm also going to hold off on starting Beyond and Misunderstanding in Metropolis. It seems counterproductive to shelve two stores to add another one. Plus, it will give me time to plan it out in more depth.

• Stay Alive is in a good spot to stop. No more chapters will be added to it for now.

• Hope Reborn, on the other hand, isn't. There will be a couple more chapte...

Pausing Stories

My chapter updates are rather spaced out. It takes a more than a month to cycle through all of them. The logical thing to do would be to put a couple of them on hold, or wrap them up entirely.

That sounds like a perfect quandary for a poll.

Which stories should be paused or ended? I'll have to see which fits the option better. The Peace and Quiet series is already planned to wrap up.

Top 2 stories get shelved.

Misunderstanding

Buttercup, Bubbles, and Blossom in Metropolis. Mistakes were made.

Thoughts?

Stay Alive - Chapter 7

I stood on the walkway overlooking the training yard. The Starks had been contained in their private quarters since the news had arrived. I couldn't approach them without making it obvious that I knew what had happened. Lord Stark probably already thought the entire castle knew. He might not like the game, but he understood how it worked. I could admire his desire to stay out of all of the machinations. Unfortunately, that didn't mean he wasn't in the game.

Only Jon remained with me. He...

Peace and Quiet to Save a Life

The next couple of weeks were pretty normal. His project to rebuild his friendship with Hermione had stalled. It turned out sleeping with a dimensional double made it hard to concentrate around her. He didn't want to attempt a relationship with this Hermione, but it was hard not to remember her face immersed in pleasure when he looked at her. Their conversations turned stilted, and time together became awkward. He had to admit that the Hermione he had known, along with the life that had forge...

OLD NEWS for August 1st 2024

Beyond is the new series I'm going to start. I'm going to try something different and write it in episodes with 10~ chapters per season. Each chapter will also be longer than the standard. I'm aiming for 5k~ per with some variation.

I've been doing some research into lesser used villains and ones from other sources I can grab. That way it isn't the standard Rogue's Gallery. Some of the classics will show up in an adapted version but I want some variety. Feel free to suggest a pos...

The Beast Within - Chapter 15

Harry woke up the next morning with a skip in his step. He had plans to visit the trio again before the school year started. They would stay at Hogwarts until their eggs hatched. It was too stressful to move them at this point. The eggs brought with them weren't as fragile since they weren't actually fertilized. It was important for dragons to have a clutch even if they didn't result in baby dragons. The nesting instinct was incredibly strong and blocking it had turned out to be a very bad id...

Expanding Fandoms

I've been wanting to write a superhero story.

Option #1 -

Spider-Man Beyond: Not Spider-Man 2099, a new fan-made world in the vein of Batman Beyond. I'd keep the first run at 5-10 chapters like a season of a show.

Option #2-

Power Puff Girls in Metropolis- Short story where Blossom, Buttercup, and Bubbles visit Metropolis. Maybe 5-ish chapters at most. -Note- The girls would be aged up to 18-20~ish

Ties will be moved on to the higher tiers.

Stay Alive - Chapter 6

I had just sat down for breakfast when a messenger hurried into the dining area. The king had insisted that the Starks join us for practically every meal. Not that I minded. Arya was fun to tease, Sansa was cute when I flirted with her, and Jon was opening up more each day. Technically, Jon spent most meals with me regardless of others. Plus, Tommen and Myrcella loved having the others to spend time with. I caught Tommen glancing at Sansa a few times. Each look ended with a blush that told me...

Peace and Quiet with Others

Harry wasn’t exactly sure what was going on. He felt a pull to go to the Room again. Sure, he needed some place to study without interruption, but there were other places. Due to the various changes in the timeline, he was no longer at Hogwarts for his Eighth Year. The year spent on the run didn't happen. Instead, Hogwarts had been turned into something of a safe-zone and classes continued. This year, he was his first in an apprenticeship in Defense of Dark Arts for his Mastery. There was s...

A New Potter - Chapter 4

Tom had a room ready for me once I got back. I found Hedwig waiting once I got settled in. The room had a nice perch for her, and I paid a bit extra for some nibbles for her. Empress Hedwig seemed pleased of our new living situation. She also didn't look to care that I hadn't written any letters in the last couple of days. It probably had something to do with the person was in a magically hidden location.

The rest of the day passed smoothly. Most of the students and families of the Inde...

Thirteen - Chapter 1

Petunia Dursley stood at the window holding a cup of tea that had gone cold a few minutes ago. Her sister's son had turned eleven two days ago. There wasn't an owl in sight. The day she had been dreading for years had come and gone without a word.

"If those freaks won't keep their word, then why should I?" Petunia grumbled.

She set the cold cup of tea on the table and hurried to find Vernon in the sitting room. Her lovely husband relaxed in his favorite chair watching some program...

Hope Reborn - Chapter 26

The ship finally made it through the landing process. Ord Mantell didn't seem to be bothered by the trouble in the galaxy. Daily life was about doing your job and getting paid. War, piracy, and all that may impact the bottom line, but it didn't make stripping ships go any faster. There had been attempts in the past to put pressure on Ord Mantell to pick a side, or to bow their head to someone. It just didn't take. As much as the people in charge didn't want to admit it, they needed each other...

Let's Try That Again Redux - Chapter 12

Harry ran through his evening routine of draining his magical core. He cycled through hair colors, lengths, and styles as he felt his limit quickly approaching. Harry used the last bit of focus to return his hair to its usual style. The next step in the process most of the time was him staggering to bed and passing out.

This time, something was different. He could feel his magic coming back at a much faster pace. The normal fatigue was nowhere near what it had been yesterday. He hadn't ...

"The carriage is about to stop." Nym said. "Do you have your cloak?"

Harry nodded. He slipped his cloak over himself and vanished from sight. Emily gawked at the spot where he had just been.

"I'm still here." Harry said.

His voice made her jump.

"Just invisible." Harry tried to sound soothing. "It's safer for you not to be seen with me until we've got protection in place."

"He's cute, I said." Emily muttered to hersel...

Somewhere Safe - Chapter 42

~§~
Note: I couldn't remember where things are on the day of the week, so I've adjusted it. Didn't feel like writing more classes.
~§~

The duo returned to the Coven Suite before breakfast. They found that the witches had prepared a meal for them already. No one said anything, but there were plenty of knowing looks exchanged. Delphi, it turned out, was rather shy about these things.

"What do we have going on today?" Harry asked.

"Just...

The Beast Within - Chapter 14

Harry strolled over to where Agda was currently surrounded by dragon handlers. She noticed his approach and stepped out of the group. The witches and wizards around her were visibly disappointed. Harry hid a small smile as she met him halfway.

"You have bred the other two." Agda stated. "You have shown you are clever enough to catch the green and strong enough to tame the red. I require you prove yourself in a practical manner."

"Name it." Harry said.

"Show you can provide f...

Time Keeps on Slipping - Chapter 18

Sirius stared at the floating papers in front of him. Each one was a report of the various attacks he had been investigating. The addition of the combination of the creatures of Kings Cross had been added to the mix. Surviving witnesses mentioned a floating crystal. It would have been a curiosity if not for the attacks on the Curse Breakers and Quidditch Assembly. Now, he could see the connection. This wasn't an isolated incident. The creature attacks were test runs for their big debut.

Story Rotation

I'm a little lost on what stories I should work on and the order.

Let's put it to a vote :)

A New Potter v2 - Chapter 3

"What is it you hope to accomplish by approaching me, Mister Potter?" Narcissa kept her voice even and in a practiced, detached tone.

This year was going to be rough, and I needed to prepare. First things first, I wanted to shake things up. Messing with Narcissa was a good way to do that. I probably should have tried to claim the Potter Lordship too, but I could do that later.

I smiled at her. My eyes drifted over her quickly, taking in her tight form. For a woman with a teenage s...

Miscalculation - Chapter 6

Harry stepped out of the bank humming a song that wouldn't come out for another twenty years or so. It was one from the Muggle side of the world, the Weird Sisters had inspired a generation of musicians, but that didn't equal quality.

"Potter!" A voice called out to him that wasn't Auror Longbottom.

He turned to see James Potter striding toward him. Harry felt a little hitch in his throat. Logically, he knew there was a chance that he would encounter his parents. In truth, with hi...

Let's Try That Again Redux - Chapter 11

Harry tumbled as the Port Key came to a stop. The private car had taken them to Grimmauld Place to drop off his things. Then there was a short walk to the Port Key. He had hoped that he had skipped the need for most magical travel. Sirius and Remus arrived at the campground strolling out as the Port Key came to a stop. Harry, however, landed in a loud thump flat on his back.

Sirius laughed as he held out a hand to Harry.

"I should have gotten you neutered over the summer." Harry g...

Let's Try That Again Redux - Chapter 10

"Harry." Aunt Petunia called. "There's a letter for you."

Harry came downstairs to see Hedwig in a stare-down with a ministry owl. She was perched on the edge of the kitchen counter while the other bird waited on the back landing. The poor owl looked like it wanted to be anywhere but here. Hedwig hadn't had to spend any time in her cage this summer and was using the new-found freedom to purge the neighborhood of vermin. It only took her removing a couple of garden-destroying rabbits bef...
