Harry/Hermione - Multi-chapter and still at Hogwarts

[lira_snape]

I made a Harry/Ginny list last week and in making it, I realized that there weren't any more Harry/Hermione rec lists out there than there were for Harry/Ginny. While I don't really ship Harry/Hermione (I prefer Harry/Ginny or Harry/Odd) and I feel that Hermione is more of a sister to Harry, I have enjoyed the one or the other Harry/Hermione.

This isn't the ship I read very often, but I know of a one other that you could add

[lira_snape]

Thank you for telling me. I probably wasn't aware of the ship in that case. I'll add it. :)

Glad to hear that you enjoy my lists! :) I like doing such lists a lot more than writing job applications, so I've made a lot lately. ;)

For the most part I'm probably not aware if it also fits another list, so I'd of course be grateful for anybody telling me. :)
(I know of a couple H/Hr-fics on my timetravel-list - but deliberately didn't include those here as they are either abandoned, rather badly written or have not yet progressed very far. My timetravel-list is pretty much the only list where I accept every fic that fits - even if it's badly written or a short abandoned WIP as I tried to make that list as complete as possible. For my other lists while not everything on them is my personal recommendation, I still try to keep the list limited to "decent" fics.)

Rising Phoenix by HermanTumbleweed
Harry gets to visit Azkaban as a guest of the Ministry, but doesn't stay. Many would like to know where the phoenix came from, and relationships are changing. Mature HHr, Sexual Situations, Language, Violence
R. The story's either on hiatus or abandoned, but the nine chapters already written are really, really worth it.

Delicate by SaoirseAngel
Harry is sick and tired of always being kept in the dark, of being lied to, of being protected. He has had enough and he's going to take control of his life. Takes place at the summer before sixth year.
Basically, Harry and Hermione adopt a child and together they fight against the Order's attempts to control them.
WIP. PG-13.

Thanks. I'll add them.

Phoenix? Harry is a phoenix Animagus? (In the first one I mean.)

And the second one is manipulative Dumbledore, I assume?

They both look like something that could interest me - not just as part of the list. Thanks. :D

[serpentclara]

No, Harry isn't a phoenix Animagus in that story - he has a pet phoenix. But I really recommend you read it. It's brilliantly written. I don't know if the author's 3+ beta readers had something to do with that, but it's one of the most memorable stories I've read recently.

If I remember correctly, indeed, the second one has a manipulative Dumbledore somewhere.

[lira_snape]

Actually I've already read it yesterday - even though I usually abhor "Harry in Azkaban", somehow that story seemed interesting. And I couldn't stop reading (till it was half past two in the morning! I just got up and now I feel like I'm sleepwalking! lol) - And already added it to my "Harry has a phoenix" list.

I can well understand that you find the story memorable. It certainly is. :)

Today I'll check out the other story. :)

If you have any more recs for me,... ;) (Although perhaps better not. I should be doing so many other things! lol)

[lothy]

Well I don't like the ship, so I can't help you with this one :) But I'll add you to my List of Lists next time I update it.

[lira_snape]

No problem. It's not my favorite ship either. :)

Sadly, my favourite H/Hr (Arya's Acceptance of Fate) has been abandoned for ages.
I would, however, add wetback's The Lost Wizard series:
The Great Hall was crowded for the end of year feast. The cheering was broken by a scream as a hooded figure drifted behind her as she stood in shock to see the end of a sword extruding from her chest.

Post-OotP. Complete. Rated T. The series doesn't really become H/Hr, though, until the sequel, The Lost Witch:
On the train home with the events of the murder still fresh on their minds and the memory of Harry's depression from last year, Hermione accompanies him. There she must help him find what he needs to finally defeat Voldemort.
Complete. Rated M. There are additional sequels The Lost Worlds (M, and I didn't like it as much) and the WIP The Lost Warning (M, currently at 11 chapters.)

I'm also surprised you listed old-crow's No Thanks and not his (IMHO) better post-HBP fic, Tom and Harry:
JKR ended HBP dangling like a half-played chess match between the light side and the dark side. Both sides

[lira_snape]

Thanks, will add them both. :)

I did not list "Tom and Harry" because I wasn't aware it was H/Hr. I've read both "Letters" and "No Thanks" and the beginning of "Apprentices" and I finally gave up on his fics because his dislike for Ron is so apparent in his fics. I can deal with good-chars-gone-bad if it serves the fic but in his case it really was obvious that he disliked Ron and thus wrote him out of every fic more or less contrivedly.
And I wouldn't be surprised if his latest fic is indeed his best. Good authors often become better the more they write. :)
Maybe I'll even try reading it. ;)

[sys_64738]

Oh, he writes Ron out in Tom and Harry, as well. But he does it in such a way that Ron gets a moment of dignity right at the end, and actually makes a brief reappearance at the end.

[jacyevans]

I don't have anything to add to the list right now, but just wanted to let you know that "Fixing Harry" isn't the sequel to "Magic Never Dies" - its a seperate fic on its own :)

[lira_snape]

Ooops, thanks. She should not have put in the summary "Not a sequel". lol I overlooked the "not" and put it down as sequel... Will change it. :)
