In honour of Lady Archimedes being finished, I am looking for stories where Hermione intimidates people (deliberately or not), acquires a reputation for being dangerous, or is otherwise feared.
Ideally, the stories should have,
a Hermione who is recognisable;
no bashing of anyone, but especially not of Dumbledore; and
not a Mary Sue.
Here's my list so far:
Canon, to an extent.
Dangerous by blacklotus (formerly hosted on GrangerEnchanted)
linkffn(Divided and Entwined by Starfox5)
linkffn(The Arithmancer by WhiteSquirrel) and linkffn(Lady Archimedes by WhiteSquirrel)
linkffn(Applied Cultural Anthropology by jacobk)
linkffn(Harry Potter and the Witch Queen by TimeLoopedPowerGamer)
linkffn(Labyrinth by Kroontjespen)
linkffn(Hermione Granger, Demonologist by BrilliantLady)
linkffn(Reign of the Serpent by AlphaEph19)
linkffn(Harry Potter Without Harry Potter by slythernim)
linkffn(Mudblood Mistress by JoseHood) and sequels
linkffn(Adorable Violence by Cloud Zen)
linkffn(Kick in the arse of the Wizarding World by Alrissa)
Depending on your crack tolerance levels in my own linkffn(LIke a Red Headed Stepchild) Hermione developes a reputation as a terrifying slayer of beasts and monsters, and also for actually being a Weasley. Unfortunately for her the reputation is mostly the fault of Gilderoy Lockhart and negligent journalism, but the Weasley bit is her own fault for drinking one of the twins potions.
Don't forget to mention that Voldemort eventually winds up convinced Hermione is actually his arch-nemesis instead of Harry.
Like a Red Headed Stepchild by mugglesftw
Harry Potter was born with red hair, but the Dursley's always treated him like the proverbial red-headed stepchild. Once he enters the wizarding world however, everyone assumes he's just another Weasley. To Harry's surprise, the Weasleys don't seem to mind. Now written by Gilderoy Lockhart, against everyone's better judgement.

Thanks! I've heard of it before, but I never got to reading it. Sounds hilarious. I'll take a look.
I'm going to cautiously leave my linkffn(The Parselmouth of Gryffindor).
There has rarely been a more unbashed Dumbledore than mine, and Hermione definitely gathers a reputation as formidable… but your mileage may vary on how recognisable she is. I like to think that it's still apparent that she's the same old person from canon, but her circumstances have changed in increasingly major ways ever since her childhood, and so her end-result personality is somewhat different.
As to Mary Sue, she is not perfect and adored, and there's no romance in the story, but (largely because this is a comedy fic) she does win more often and more thoroughly than realism would dictate.
The Parselmouth of Gryffindor by Achille Talon
Hermione Granger was born a Parselmouth. She arrives at Hogwarts with less trust in authority (after all, muggle science somehow missed snake sentience), and a mission to prove snakes are people too. And Goblins. And Acromantulas. And… oh Merlin. Hogwarts isn't prepared for this, the Wizarding World isn't prepared for this, and Voldemort is *especially* not prepared for this.

Her father had told Harry that if Hermione was in danger he should hold that box in front of her and push the button. He'd never have expected that a series of flashing lights would transform Hermione into "Spygirl". Fortunately, the dozen Death Eaters facing them hadn't expected that either.

There was no troll in the girls bathroom in 1991. Hermione found no friends that night. Therefore the brightest witch of her age is on a perilous path. Because with magic it is so very true that knowledge is power. But is it also true that power corrupts?

Yeah, I have very mixed feelings about that fic... There's all this promise of a powerful and misanthropic witch being tempted by darkness, but we don't really see any interesting character interaction except between her and Harry.
I really want to see where the author goes with this. I've enjoyed what's posted so far.
Hallows and Pathos linkffn(Hallows and Pathos), though the power of the Hallows is stretched a bit here.
Hallows and Pathos by Perspicacity
A mistake by a dying man drives Hermione to obsession as she seeks to unlock the secrets of the Deathly Hallows. Harry, wanting only peace, tries to rid himself of the taint of death. Two friends clash in a tragic struggle for identity and destiny.

In addition to those already mentioned, here are several more:
linkffn(Who’s Afraid of the Dentists’ Daughter? by TardisIsTheOnlyWayToTravel) is too tiny and incomplete, but still qualifies;
in linkffn(The Morrigan by adriata) Draco is terrified of Hermione for a good reason (this is not this fic endorsement);

Dark Hermione, might be considered bashing of Harry and Ron, but I don't think so. Probably my favorite dark any main character fic I've read. I literally for chills reading it at points.
Thanks; yes, I tried to read it, but the author has some really bad Gryffindor-bash/Slytheirn-worship habits, unfortunately, and this fic was no exception, so I had dropped it. Perhaps I should give it another shot?

What the hell is Alpha/Beta/Omega?
Why can't people write actual sentences?
Why are there so many great ideas that just suffer from horrible writing?
She's known to mysteriously disappear for days at a time, but Augusta has always put that down to the obvious carelessness and forgetfulness of her disappointment of a *grandson. No matter how she reminds him, that boy just can't seem to keep track of his toad!
E: Yes, inspired by discussion in the previous Trevor thread. Posted here for greater visibility!
The way they argue over every mundane thing doesn't feel very 'old married couple' to me. It feels more like how siblings always start fights over nothing. I know we're supposed to see Harry and Hermione having the brother-sister connection, but I see it more with Ron and Hermione tbh.
"There was another petrification?"
"No, some upper year Hufflepuffs were apparently growing Marijuana..."
I just found it on accident and finished reading it in one sitting. As a sucker for romance and haphne as a whole it made me giggle and laugh and i loved every minute of it.

Story: Daphne Greengrass and the Importance of Intent https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13133746
Like alot of these Harry/Tom squick stories people like to write or read don't take into account that Tom was a fucking Sociopath who literally could not understand love.
I don't understand why anyone can ship Tom with anyone even before he became Voldemort because he always had these tendencies even when he was a child, this is a kid who hung rabbits and tortured his fellow kids even the ones who weren't picking on him.
If you don't know about it, the pre Endgame meme has Ant-Man shrinking down and crawls into Thanos's butt and then he returns to his normal size, causing Thanos to explode. I would like Harry to force/coerce Rita to do this.
Not because he's depressed, nihilistic, or anything like that. Okay, maybe a little. But you know those people that don't have to try and yet still be the best because they're talented or good at bullshitting?
Basilisk? Cool
Mass murderer and dementors after him? K
Forced into the Tri-wizard tournament? No problem
The kind of Harry that would show up to the tasks hungover and still lead the tournament.
(Cause he's just that good at pretending to be good)
Bio parents. Foster parents. Case managers. Guardian Ad Litums. Judges. Appointments with pediatricians and therapists booked into next year. This kid isn't going anywhere without a whole plethora of muggles knowing about it ... or is he?
He's quite shocked to find out that having a half-life means that he now has the same random chance of decaying at any moment as an atom of Caesium-134.
EDIT: so apparently when Dumbledore picks Harry up in HBP, he confirms that Sirius left a “considerable amount of money” to Harry
According to the Wiki: The inheritance of the property by Sirius Black is almost certainly governed by the magical equivalent of the English Common Law concept of the Entailed Estate. Under this type of arrangement, the inheritance of the covered property by the designated heir ("down the direct line, to the next male with the name of 'Black'") cannot be prevented by disinheritance or any other legal means. The only way the entail breaks is if there is no living descendant who matches the conditions of the entail. When the entail breaks, the property in question can be disposed of by any legal means, including being willed to any person the current holder so chooses. This legal mechanism matches the known circumstances of the inheritance, where the property was inherited by Sirius although he was "disowned", and then could be successfully left to Harry Potter once there was no "direct line, male descendant.
I am looking for stories where the castle is sentient and alive. I want to see a mingling castle that helps one of the characters.
Or stories where the house elves don't sit by and let the wizarding world go to pieces and pull strings from the background. Or full take over.
To run with the theme, maybe the themes are something intangible and abstract like Love and Prophecy, more like the mysteries of life. I think maybe there's a room on magic (how it originated, the nature of it and how it has to deal with the person using it, maybe). Since there's death, maybe there would be a room that studies the origins of Life and how it came to be to where we are today. A room that
Maybe there's a room that has to deal with alternate dimensions and how different choices lead to different realities that might have perhaps fallen under Prophecy or Space.
What about a room that studies the soul? Or that'd also fall under life as well. Maybe the brain room records the thoughts of people as well their emotions, dreams and hopes. Maybe dreams have an entire room dedicated to them.
What are your thoughts about this? The DoM has always intrigued me, personally and I wish we would have seen it in other books.
I love Bellatrix as a character for everything she can bring to the table to make a fic good. But by GOD my fellow writers can we all agree to smother the baby talk trope in its crib? She did that like...a handful of times in the books! She’s insane yes but she’s got some self respect! The most I remember her actually doing that was just to say “Ickle Harry” and maybe the childish “I killed Sirius Black” taunts if you wanna push the definition.
This is a character meant to strike fear into the hearts of those around her. One of the most powerful witches and the most skilled duelists in the world. Not being able to read her with a straight face is a problem!!
Any pairing, any content, there's nothing I won't read. I don't care if it's HagridxDumbledore, Misguided!Riddle, or Harry the Sex God Has a Harem. I want to read them all.
HMU!
Crossovers welcome too.
Edit: I've had some awesome recs, thank you all. I've got a list of twenty+ fics that I'll no doubt spend time reading instead of writing my dissertation.
So i got this idea, maybe each house has one or two special classes to suit the house. Example:
Slytherin house gets class like 'Human Psychology for future uses when maybe manipulating someone, seeing body language to reap higher benefits from trade/business, etc etc.
Ravenclaw house gets mediation techniques for better concentration, memory, and creativity.
I cannot come up with something else right know, but what do you people think?
Title pretty much explains it.
Looking for a fan fiction that has HP characters or HP himself involved in the infinity war. It can be a longer novel that eventually gets to infinity war, or it can be a one shot. Anything goes! Slash and het and anything in between also good, tho I prefer gen.
Side note: any fanfics recommendations that have the feeling of awe and “everyone is here” that you get from infinity war are welcome.
I can imagine that after the war very few people would be willing to give Snape the credit he was due. He would be known as the killer of Dumberdorw and the Headmaster who sanctioned the torture of students.
There’s only so much good will I could expect Harry to be able to create given how little evidence he has, as well as how fickle the wizard if world is. Especially with people like Rita Skeeter running around. And just because Harry defeated Voldemort doesn’t mean everyone will now like or believe everything he says. Dumbledore defeating Grindelwald ended up mattering very little when it came to swaying public opinion in the face of a propaganda machine.
So in order to combat all of this, Harry names his son after Snape. The great wizard Dumbledore and the man who killed him, juxtaposed together in the savior of he wizard of world’s child. Given how in general people are moved more by their hearts than logic, I can see this more than anything helping to convince people that Snape actually was a double agent.
