I don't think if anyone's noticed, but I recently went back to edit the entirety of Harry Evans for grammar and consistency. One minor thing that I changed that you should know is that I wasn't liking the romantic development with Tonks. I felt that if I continued in that direction it would detract from the other themes of this story. I just don't feel like I can juggle so many themes, so that's what I decided to quit.
In addition I've been getting annoying PMs about the ages of ...

Thankfully the rest of the train ride passed in relative peace. Ron Weasley ended up the only member of the Golden Trio that Harry didn't end up inadvertently meeting.
He and Tonks continued chatting and eventually exited the train to go to the carriages that took them to the castle. She laughed as he explained why Penny and Cedric had lost their Harry privileges and why he was now slightly afraid of his fame considering how weirdly even the boy who lived had behaved.

It was a mentally confused Jin who returned after so long to his little apartment building and the outer reaches of the inner disciple enclave. Elder Flower had dropped him off at the food hall, so he’d eaten one meal before meandering towards home. The home he’d spent cumulatively less time at than at the Mad Monks Sect. He had to shamble his feet, tired from standing all day but managed to reach his destination. Once in front of the cheery yellow apartment building slash house, he opene...

Ok, general update. I've started recovering from the hard times recently, which more result-oriented to you means... That I've finished the Game of Thrones first chapter, yay!
So anyway, the Game of Thrones thing still needs to marinate a bit before it gets a last edit, so I'll schedule it for like the 30th August or something. It has around 4.5k words.
However, it being done means that the rotation is back to picking an interlude chapter. and this time the slipper falls on ...

AN: This is a chapter many of you have probably been waiting for, for a very long time. Yes, we have finally started canon. We are on the train with Hermione, Ron, Neville and Trevor the toad. I honestly think that if you've liked the story till now, it now has the potential to become even more exciting.

A cold splash of water hit Joey's face and then dripped down into the sink that he was leaning on, staring into the mirror.
He was in the bathroom that he shared with the other orphans on his floor. Still, considering he was always the first one awake, it essentially belonged only to him in these early hours of the day.
His torso, still glistening from the shower, looked back at him in the reflection, but rather than focusing on his increasingly well-defined musculature, his...

It was on the 1st of September, a few weeks after Harry's first meeting with Draco, that the two of them could be found in a McDonald's close to Kings Cross station.
The older of the two, Charon, sat there in a muggle tracksuit with his hood pulled up over his face, and a notice-me-not-charm applied on the entirety of his presence. It was not an overly strong usage of it, but it didn't really take a lot of magic to convince a bunch of muggles to not care about just another customer.

“It appears that we have a problem,” Elder Flower summarised rather accurately as she looked down at the huge army surrounding the mountain of the Illusion Room Sect.
Jin’s heart skipped a beat and he almost wanted to puke blood at the nonchalant air of the answer. Their mountain, their home, their sect, was surrounded by a gigantic army and her reply was simply that it appeared that they had a problem? For fucking sure they had a problem, they were being invaded!

Hey, I know this is a bit random, but I've started re-editing Harry Evans, of which the title is actually Memoirs of a well-lived death, a name you've all not seen for a while since I'm way to lazy to ever write it out on Patreon lol, always referring to it as Harry Evans.
Anyway, I realised while reading again that this title doesn't actually represent what I'm trying to do with the story anymore, so I was wondering if you could listen to some of my suggestions.

Harry looked at himself in the mirror critically. He was aged up to 25-something years old and was covered up completely with a black cloak, a hood pulled tightly over his visage, which was additionally also hidden by a shadow spell.
His new illegal wand was really coming in quite handy. It allowed him to continue progressing his spell work at a fast pace even while not at Hogwarts. It would be especially useful considering what his next task would be.
If he'd still ...

It was after his victory at Celadon that the Stinky Hobo's life changed forever.
His new stipend was sufficient to fully sustain an adult man even if he had chosen to live in a city rather than being homeless. The desire for more badges thus became more a thing of Pride than a thing of necessity and due to this the journey naturally slowed down.
Several months were spent in Celadon even after the six months that it took to “fulfil” the task ...

After his adventures through Viennese museums, his meeting with Fleur and his strategy talk with Flitwick, Harry entered the duelling arena which was for lack of a better term, decimated in comparison to yesterday. After all, they had gone from 72 contestants to 18.
It was only the audience, which in contrast to the contestants, had actually grown. The seats were still nowhere near as full as it would likely be for the adult version of the tournament, but they were definitely mor...

“And that's basically what happened,” Jin finished, recounting the full story of what had occurred since he’d last seen Ting.
His fellow inner disciple kicked her legs out from where they were sitting on the wooden platform jutting out of her tower, which was there for others to land on when they came through the air.
“It sounds like you had an interesting visit, perhaps too interesting. Sect leaders, crazy people, disciple selection ceremony…” the girl t...

Everyone’s attitude towards Harry changed from then onwards. Before, people had been somewhat patronising to the young boy seeking to distinguish himself at a place he was not yet qualified to be in. Perhaps no one had said anything and perhaps his first victory had shut some people up, but the atmosphere had still decisively been hostile. As if he was an outsider.
However, after his defeat of Habsburg and by default his mentor, Pierre. Harry got the feeling that he had be...

Considering the ridiculous focus that had been put on developing Outlast for nearly half a year now, suddenly being done with the job was in its own way slightly daunting.
The Mad Monks had gotten their new disciple with all of his brimming protagonist energy, no matter how much of it was potentially negatively directed at Jin. He had stopped being plagued by nightmares the second that he had stopped having to deal with the scenario and Elder Flower had praised him in the privacy of the...

When the battle recommenced Lance revealed his second dragonite, but people were numb to it. The large dragon managed to score a win on Bruno's hitmontop. A much more impressive monster than Kong’s have been. It still lost miserably.
Then the dragonite got knocked out, surprisingly enough, by a heracross.
A third dragonite was sent out against the heracross. The live commentator wasn't even speaking anymore. No matter how good heracross was at combining rest and sleep talk, it l...

30 minutes of not much happening passed after Harry's first match. He was to have two that day. One for getting out of the 72 bracket, and one for getting out of the 36 bracket.
Reaching the top 18 would be a nice feather in his cap. After all, winning one fight could have been a fluke, but two was just enough to prove that he wasn't joking around with his presence here. Quite frankly, wasn't 72 a bit of a low number for the competition of the whole continent?

Hey guys, I recently posted by Video Game Developer story to Scribblehub and RoyalRoad which have functioning review system. I also realised that considering some of you have been my patrons since the first day the story was commissioned, you might have never read it anywhere else. Anyway, if you like it, or want to help me get more subscribers, which then translates into basically more money for me, you could leave a rating, a review or a follow?

The next few weeks of school were as awkward as they were surreal. Tonks and Harry hadn't told anyone about the fact that Greyback was now dead, which meant that the teachers and the students stayed on high alert. The newspapers reported on the case, and the auror department occasionally gave apologies to the fact that they weren't making any progress. Professor Potter looked incred...

The next time they were in the arena, it was much fuller. They simply slipped outside to drink coffee and hot chocolate, respectively, and upon coming back, they found half the seats filled with bustling natives and internationals, all dressed to the nines as if they were attending a ball.
Harry and Flitwick were bustled unceremoniously towards a bench on which they were sat alongside several other competitors. Harry noted that attention had been paid so that no one who was to fac...

In the end, Harry ended up being too tired to go out and explore the city. Flitwick was a harsh taskmaster and it didn't seem like the man was willing to give him any respite even on the day before the actual tournament, for which he'd presumably need all of his energy.
So, he went to sleep, had an undisturbed night in the sinfully comfortable bed and woke up feeling more rejuvenated than he had in a very long time. Today was the day. Matches would start in four hours, whic...

“This is a bit awkward,” Elder Zhang said while coughing into his fist.
Sect leader Shen and Elder Kwang shared a look before giving the eyebrow equivalent of a full-body shrug. Jin meanwhile just sighed. He hadn't really expected it to happen like this, but considering that this was to his knowledge the first time an Illusion Room was being used to select outer disciples it made sense that he wasn't able to predict exactly how it would go.
It started well enough, just as he'd...

The portkey journey was much more violent than any apparation that he'd experienced in the past, which made Harry truly wonder why wizards designed every single magical transportation method to be as uncomfortable as possible.
He decided then and there, as he stumbled out of a golden arrival room and into a larger atrium, that the second he learned how to apparate, he would also invest a lot of time into making the process seamless and painless.

After receiving his first badge, the Stinky Hobo had upped his financial status from destitute homeless person, to financially well-off homeless person. The biggest benefit of the newly gained status was not the ability to stay for free at any Pokecenter, since upon trying once the Stinky Hobo was kicked out due to scaring everyone's Pokemon away, but the slight discount one got in the Pokemart. This meant that after a bit of saving the Stinky Hobo was able to purchase himself a new non-l...
