Hari Raised By Sirius And Remus 😊

with the tags and search officially being completely broken on all platforms (no new posts are showing up in them anymore), now feels like a good time to remind everyone that the only way to help creators is to reblog their stuff. even before the tags were busted most people found new creators through their content being rebloged onto their dash, and now, at least for the time being, that will be the Only way to find and spread things.

Fast reblog is a thing, you dont have to leave comments, you dont have to leave tags, just reblog stuff if you want to keep seeing new content being posted to this site.

and as a final note, with this change likes are officially completely pointless for content creators. up till now they served to boost a posts placement in the tag searches (a post tagged #girl with 40 likes would show up higher in the search than a post tagged #girl with only 10 likes,)

[outdated. the glitch was fixed a few hours after this post was made ^^ still reblog stuff tho]

Can you explain why many people think Harry Potter is desi? Not hating just curious! That's so lovely!!

Tbh because there’s no good reason not to.

All the blood status in the hp universe is a metaphor for racism but you know what’s boring? Metaphors for racism that only involve white people. Harry is often described as “dark” and like if James Potter’s family was desi and Lily Evans’s was white, that would enhance Harry’s feelings of otherness while growing up with the Dursleys because lbr Vernon was probs a flaming racist.

“Potter” could easily be an anglicized version of a south Asian last name like Potdar or Potluri, and you could make an argument for a pure blood family like the Potters engaging in and profiting from cultural exchange through the British colonization of India so there was an opportunity to establish generational wealth there.

Also on the night he died, James was making pretty-colored lights for Harry. That was October 31st. In 1981, Diwali, the Hindu Festival of Lights, started on October 27th. It lasts five days.

Introduction.

Hello, my name is Rio. I go by they/them, and am pan. I’m deaf, have been my entire life.

I write purely for fun, and I hope that one day I can share some of my original works. For now, though, I’ll be focusing on several projects I’ve been working on for some time within the Harry Potter universe.

NOTE: I do not, in any way, support JKRoach. I am a part of the fandom, anything that TERF says has no importance in my blog. Fuck her.

Harry Potter Rewrite.

I decided to rewrite the entire Harry Potter series. I’ll be fixing plot holes, diversifying, and overall bettering the story as I see fit.

I would love and appreciate it if you guys could help me out! Have any specific headcanon for any character? Let me know! Have ideas for an Era? Comment, Ask, or PM me!

I want to hear about any and all suggestions you may have.

NOTE #1: I used to identify as Anti-Snape, but I no longer do. I decided to interact with some Snape stans with an open mind when I made the choice of humanizing Snape. Now, I’m very neutral about young Snape, however, I won’t defend him as an adult. Hope that’s understandable. If you’ve got any headcanons on Snape as a young boy/teenager, feel free to send them over.

NOTE #2: Due to my personal headcanon that the Potters are Indian, I will be referring to Harry as Hari (I can elaborate on this, if you’d like).

Social Media.

I’ll be posting the rewrite (and maybe some other works) on Ao3 and Wattpad. You can subscribe and follow in the meantime.

You can follow my progress with the rewrite on my Twitter. I will be interacting with everyone there, and will be holding votes on different matters every Friday (ish).

If you’re looking to befriend me, you can follow me on Instagram and TikTok.

Someone to Stay: Chapter Two. (Watt. || Ao3)

Different anon, but that must have been so confusing for young Percy! He was taught all his life to follow the rules, eat what was set before him, be quiet, and not draw any attention to himself. Then suddenly, when he's around seven or so, his whole life changes, and he's expected to flip his whole personality on a head just like that

Agreed! It’s no wonder why he was so upset with his family, honestly. They mocked him for trying to succeed, just because he wasn’t rowdy like his siblings did not mean that he was doing anything wrong.

Rereading Harry Potter.

I can’t sleep, so I decided to pick up the first book of the HP series because it’s been a minute since I’ve read them and…doesn’t wandering around in cloaks and calling non-magical people “muggles” to their faces, and openly talking about You-Know-Who’s defeat break the Statute of Secrecy? Boy oh boy, three pages in and I’m already finding plot holes.

Why is it always ‘queer people are projecting their identities onto characters’ and never ‘straight people are presuming that their identity is the default’?

HP Rewrite: Possible Muslim Character.

I just found out that Muslims believe that every kind of magic is Black Magic (correct me if I’m wrong). Now I’m a bit afraid of writing them into my Harry Potter rewrite, since I wanted to represent them but if it’s going to offend my Muslim readers, then I think I probably shouldn’t. Still, here’s what I had in plan for them (there was supposed to be two characters who were Muslim).

They’re best friends whose family are also very close. They’re supposed to be muggleborn witches. One of them (Zaneerah) is blind, and the other one (Saida) doesn’t have any disability. So once they get to Hogwarts and they realized just how inaccessible the school is for students with any kind of disabilities, the two muslim best friends work together to find magical ways to make life easier.

After their project is done and over with and Zaneerah begins excelling in her classes with her new spells and such, Saida finds that her passions lay in helping those with certain disabilities. She spends the rest of her school years working closely with other disabled students to find something that helps them without actually erasing their disability (if they don’t wish to).

I’m disabled, so I thought this would be a cool idea. But if it’ll offend my Muslim readers then perhaps I shouldn’t proceed? What do you think? Because I do believe that there must be magical people all over the country regardless of where they’re from or their religion, should these girls struggle with their newfound identity while at school? Maybe have some issues with their families? They would have to attend Hogwarts or some magical school because otherwise they’d become Obscurials.

I saw a post where someone posted that if the character is born with magic, then it might be viewed as a gift from Allah, but I want to make sure it’s right.

Again, if it’s too complicated, or would still offend my Muslim readers, just tell me the word and I’ll remove this idea and replace it with something else.

Hey, so they’re making a Netflix Harry Potter.

With that in mind, we’re all gonna remember that JKR is a terf who has literally been cited by legislators engaged in legislation that actively harms trans people, and we’re not gonna give her any more money.

That means not streaming the new show on Netflix, because regardless of how much influence she has on the production, she gets paid for it.

We’re gonna make the show flop. We’re gonna show Warner Brothers that we don’t forget (of course, how would we forget, it isn’t as if she’s stopped), and that their business association with terfs is no longer profitable.

It is NOT like Lovecraft, because Lovecraft is very dead and his works are in the public domain. By consuming Lovecraft media, you are not giving any money to old Howard.

Beta-Readers Needed!

Before I publish the first few chapters of my rewrite series, I’m looking for at least five beta readers who’ll check my work for any inconsistencies, typos, and any other errors that might be found.

ੈ✩‧₊˚ If you are interested, you can message me so that I can ask you a couple of questions. If I feel that you may work well with me, I’ll ask for your email.

ੈ✩‧₊˚ If you are not interested, but know someone that might be, then you can either send them this post or tell me about them so that I can ask them myself. I’ll be asking a couple of simple questions and, if I feel we’d work well, then I’ll ask for their emails.

ੈ✩‧₊˚ REMEMBER! This part of the rewrite is centered around the Marauders & Co. (the romance is Wolfstar-focused, although romance isn’t the main theme). There’s going to be a lot of diversity in terms of race, gender, and disabilities. Also, Snape is going to be a complex, humanized character.

ੈ✩‧₊˚ If I can find someone who is Indian, Japanese, French, and/or Welsh to call me out in case I make any mistakes (I’ve been studying these cultures for years whenever I can, but I’m not perfect) that would be amazing.

ੈ✩‧₊˚ Finally, any and all Beta-Readers I end up picking will be credited each chapter I post.

I have like 5 followers but all 5 followers deserve to know they’re valid and loved. I fucking love you guys.
