#horcrux hunt

[allofthelights11]

The latest piece of art created especially for Out of Time!

GORGEOUS art created especially for Out of Time by the immeasurably talented Talita Asami!

Out of Time is a 6th/7th year Horcrux hunt rewrite. It's a WIP updating 2x a week.

It's the third in a series, but is the primary work. The prequel works explore Hermione propositioning him to lose her virginity and their subsequent inability to keep their hands off each other. Lots of fun, but not necessary for plot.

-------------------------

Hermione knew when the war comes, she should have certain boxes checked in advance. She didn't expect to fall for the person she propositioned, someone who only earned the role because he was (a) fit and (b) not a friendship she'd be risking with a good shag. Now they're hiding it from Harry, Ron, and everyone else, while Draco balances his growing obsession with Hermione alongside his mission deadline to allow a Death Eater breach of the castle. Featuring possessive and dangerous Draco, BAMF Hermione, jealous Ron, good friend Ginny, double/triple/quadruple agent Snape, good Slytherins (Theo, Pansy, and Blaise) and very, very bad ones, and a little T.S. Eliot. Still to come: ill-fated camping, snake encounters, and Horcrux hunting - complete with all the toxic infestation and mental poisoning the Horcruxes bring along for the ride.

Hi,

Hope you are doing well.

So, I was thinking about the Horcrux hunt, and I think these two parts get neglected in that fight.

First, Ron said that he thought in all this time they would have achieved something. I don't think he was wrong to assume that, because I think all this happened in November or end of October-start of November if I recall right.

Second, he told Harry that he thought Harry knew what he was doing. Its clear that Harry had no idea.

Unfortunately, these two factors, plus what he heard about Ginny, and the way Harry thought that the Forbidden forest is less scary, to me seems to make him angry at Harry, because Ron must have realized even with his injury that Harry really had no clue and running around is achieving nothing.

I think these two factors also need to be considered in some sense when Ron decided to leave. I would like to hear your thoughts on this.

No, no, it's better than just that, you know what's insane about that?

It's that Ron is right.

No, really. He's right. Look. Where was everything they needed to find again?

Gringotts. Hogwarts. At Voldemort's side.

None of these places are in any way shape or form "some random spot in the English wilderness".

They did get Gryff's sword from a random lake, but it's only because Snape put it there, KNOWING the Trio would come accross it.

Ron is portrayed as the one in the wrong, and therefore needing to apologize, over the Horcrux Hunt. It's treated as this most terrible mistake on Ron's part, this “abandonment” of Harry and Hermione who were so much more devoted to the Cause… except let's get real: Harry had no plan, and when prodded about it, had “Dumbledore told me to do it" as his sole excuse… except, Harry, Dumbledore told you “find the Horcruxes”, he didn't tell you “find the Horcruxes but only in the stupidest manner possible, without using any of the resources from the Order, without planning and discussing how to get it done, just run around the British countryside like some headless chicken I guess stuff will happen and somehow the Horcruxes will fall on your lap or something idk".

Anyone with a lick of common sense would realize Harry is flying by the seat of his pants, and that wouldn't be so bad if only he was willing to stop being a dick and actually PLAN SOMETHING instead of “leading" his friends around in circles in the world's most unbalanced Easter egg hunt. Because as he is doing it, he's just leading them right into a wall.

So to sum up: Ron and Hermione have the lick of common sense, however Ron (egged on by Teh Horcrux so we know it's really the evilness of Voldemort that's making him question Harry, because questioning Harry is the most evil thing you can do, it's not like he's being a complete idiot that's wasting everyone's time with his “Horcrux Hunt" since none of the remaining Horcruxes were anywhere in the British countryside-) decides he's done with this bullshit while Hermione, desperate to stay in Harry's good graces, prefers to suck up to Mr Chosen One; Harry tells Ron to leave, and Ron obeys, since it's asked so nicely. Harry then gets all surprised and promptly forgets all about how he is the one who told Ron to leave in the first place, rather than accept he was doing a terrible job of “leading" the Horcrux Hunt and sit down to try and salvage the fiasco.

Nope! Instead everything is shown as Ron's mistake and how he “wasn't strong enough" to stay with Harry and Hermione… except Harry and Hermione only succeeded in nearly getting themselves killed while Ron was away so yknow. Who's the incompetent one again?

Again, it's an example of narrative imbalance: Ron was right to leave. It's insane how this is treated like a huge fault of his when in truth Harry was doing buttfuck nothing, accomplished absolutely nothing and only wasted everyone's time WHILE MUGGLEBORNS WERE ACTIVELY BEING ROUNDED UP AND THE LONGER HE TOOK TO KILL VOLDEMORT THE MORE PEOPLE WERE DYING.

But, unfortunately, we can't have Ron be right about anything. We can't excise this tumor of a contrived plot point because we neeeeeed for Ron to be villainized and portrayed as "immature" for his terrible crime of... needing food because he's injured, and also he's sick of Harry's bullshit, HOW DARE HE BE SICK OF HARRY'S BULLSHIT, THAT'S SO EVIL.

(I don't know, spending 7 books watching an idiot run headfirst into danger to "save" people and only succeeding in putting people in more danger also made me kinda sick of Harry's bullshit ngl)

It’s kinda funny how Ron stans bring up how “miserable” Harry and Hermione are during the hunt without Ron, but they completely forget, that even in the 1st half of the hunt, when Ron was with them, they were just as miserable, probably even more so with Ron’s constant complaints about lack of food or expecting the Horcrux hunt would ge an easy task.

At least, when it’s just Harry and Hermione, there isn’t any nasty fighting 🤷

Finding himself saddled with Draco Malfoy is just about the last thing Harry expected to happen this year. Too bad ignoring the git is something he’s never been able to do. Horcruxes, war, and teenage hormones – no one ever said this would be easy! 7th year fic. Harry/Draco main pairing...eventually.

“There was silence for a second, just long enough for Harry to become irrationally offended, and then – “Not your type?” he repeated incredulously. “You’ve been pulling my pigtails since first year, Malfoy, what the bloody hell do you mean I’m not your type?” And whoa, hold up, he hadn’t meant to say that. Harry wasn’t even sure where the words had come from. His eyes went wide.Draco’s gaze snapped back down to meet Harry’s, his cheeks going furiously pink as he pushed himself up on one elbow and turned to face the other boy. “I have not been pulling your pigtails, Potter!” he snapped. “I’ve been cleverly insulting you at every turn and besting you in as many ways possible and–”

I have to say even though this is a wip, I love rereading this story. This is the way I wish the 7th book had went. The writing is so great, the ideas and different way the trio plus Draco horcrux hunt is so fascinating.

[anythingforourmoonysstuff]

Thinking about how everyone who sees Sirius and James interact immediately thinks that they’re a couple.

Remus and Regulus do not appreciate this so they start acting like a couple in public just to spite them.

At the supermarket -

Regulus: honey would you come here please I need help reaching the pasta on the top shelf

James: of course lo-

Regulus: *swats James’s hand away from the shelf* not you potter

Remus: *already on his way over* of course darling *kisses the top of his head and gets him the pasta*

Cut to James and Sirius panicking because what “have we just witnessed?”But they look so much like a couple in their panic and confusion that Remus and Regulus just do it again.

On that note please go read the horcrux hunt by @lostmykeysie because I’m obsessed with remus and regulus’s friendship in it

it’s important to me that everyone remember that regulus didn’t start the hunt for horcruxes, he obstructed it. he did nothing but make the actual search a lot fucking harder lmfaooo

#this is in response to those tiktoks that are like we need to finish what dumbledore started #and reggie is like dumbledore?? :( #yes dumbledore you little idiot #at least then dumbledore would have found it and harry wouldn’t have had to break into the ministry #i love reggie with my whole heart but let’s be real here #regulus black #horcrux hunting

headcanon: harry only finds out princess diana died in the 2000s because shit, he completely missed that with the horcrux hunt and then never really heard much until it slipped in a conversation he was having with some muggle. the man is shocked “how the hell did you miss that, mate?” harry can’t possibly mention a magical war “i went to boarding school”

#‘a car crash?! a car crash kill princess diana?! it’s an outrage! it’s a SCANDAL!’ #the idea of them just using boarding school as an excuse for any ridiculous behaviour is so tunnshshsh #‘you didn’t watch titanic??’ ‘i went to boarding school’ #harry potter #hermione granger #ron weasley #horcrux hunt #horcrux hunting #headcanon #harry potter headcanon #hp headcanon

Hi!!! Do you know any fic where Draco join the Golden Trio in their Hocrux Hunting in 7th year? Thnx

Hello! I know some,

Horcrux Hunting

Temptation on the Warfront by Alizarincrimson (180k)

Draco Malfoy is forced into hiding with the Golden Trio and dragged into their search for horcruxes. What ensues is a journey of redemption, unexpected friendships and an unwanted, turbulent romance with Harry Potter. Warnings for swearing, sexual content, and dark themes.

Chronological Displacement by bookinit (89k)

In which Harry and Draco have a time-turner accident, and many things go wrong, but a lot of things also go right. Featuring: reptilian bonding night, canon-inaccurate animagus lessons, and a fuck-ton of pining.

aka the fic where Harry finds his family, and fights to keep them.

Consequences of Redemption by bobbirose (120k)

When Draco makes an impromptu decision to rescue Harry Potter from Malfoy Manor, the two find themselves completely alone and facing the looming climax of the war against Voldemort. Harry must start from the beginning with Draco–and starting over has more consequences than either of them anticipated.

Finite Incantatum by Alysian_Fields (153k)

What should have happened after ‘Half Blood Prince’! It’s the autumn after Dumbledore’s death, the Death Eaters are steadily gaining power, and Harry and his friends are desperate to find the remaining Horcruxes. But then Draco Malfoy arrives at Grimmauld Place, traumatised, starved and drained of all his magical ability. It falls to Harry to show the Slytherin how to adapt to his new way of life, never guessing that Draco has a few things to teach him in return.

The Sum of Your Scars by Tessa Crowley (4k)

Draco will never forgive Harry for making him a better person, and will never forgive himself for falling in love with him.

Earthbound Spook by cest_what (57k)

Two months after Draco Malfoy was reported dead, Harry and Ron found him tangled in Strangler Ivy on the grounds of Hogwarts.

The Serenity of His Rage by Lomonaaeren (152k)

AU of HBP. Narcissa never made Snape swear an Unbreakable Vow, and in the end, Draco decides to accept Dumbledore’s offer of sanctuary. But when Narcissa dies and Dumbledore declares his intention to create a soul-bond between Harry and Draco mainly to get rid of the Horcrux in Harry, Draco becomes enraged. He’ll use the soul-bond and the sanctuary Dumbledore gave him. But not exactly in the ways that Dumbledore anticipated.

Vulnera Sanentur by Zzzara (51k)

When Harry Potter fires a deadly curse at his "arch-enemy", he has no idea what the curse does. He has no idea he will soon beg Draco Malfoy's forgiveness and try his best to atone. He has no idea that the ugly bathroom incident he would rather forget will tangle and bind their lives together with no chance of escape. Navigating a treacherous path between Dumbledore's lies and Voldemort's orders, Draco is trapped and considered to be dead by both sides of the Wizarding War. Against the Golden Trio's wishes, he joins them on the Horcrux hunt. Except that he has no idea what he is hunting for. This is a love-story, a fight-story, very much compliant to the 6th and 7th 'Harry Potter' books and yet, very, VERY different. Because this time - after the Sectumsempra incident - Harry visited Draco in the hospital wing and tried to apologise.

Men Who Love Dragons Too Much by @fencer-x (522k)

[Extensive re-telling of Deathly Hallows] ‘Kill Albus Dumbledore’ is less a challenging task and more a suicide mission, so when Draco Malfoy is presented with the option to either dispatch his Headmaster or suffer an excruciating and most ignominious death of his own, along with his parents, he reaches deep into his black little Slytherin heart and manages to scrape together enough courage to go with option C instead: Spend Sixth Year secretly studying Animagecraft in the hopes he’ll turn into something sufficiently imposing even the Dark Lord himself won’t be able to keep Draco under his thumb. But just his luck, his Animagus form turns out to be a dragon, and a rather randy juvenile at that, intent on finding its mate: one Harry James Potter.

Speak (and may the world come undone) by @shealwaysreads (26k)

The war is on in earnest, and the hunt for the Horcruxes has begun. Harry receives help from the least expected person, and must decide whether he can trust the enemy he knows best. A story of grey-tinged loyalty, the silver of trust in the darkness, the agony of courage, the unexpected richness of secrets, and the vast unknown of survival.

Walking the Line by SilentAuror (179k)

Sixth year is over and Draco Malfoy is on the run. The war is on and an unwanted assignment is forced upon him by the only people he trusts - and a one-time arch-enemy just may be out to kill him.

Bad Faith by jad (224k)

Four years after Dumbledore's death, Draco Malfoy shows up on the doorstep of number twelve, Grimmauld Place looking for Harry Potter. Torn between his own self-preservation and his family's pride, Draco finds himself alone on a battlefield and has nowhere else to turn; and Harry has to learn that sometimes you don't put up walls to keep other people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down.

The Eighth Tale by lettered (12k)

Draco Malfoy tries to fix the past, but instead mucks it up some more. For Harry, it all becomes quite clear.

The Hush of War by @lol-zeitgeistic (351k)

Voldemort has made a bargain with Harry to stop killing muggles and muggle-borns (when at all possible, of course) in exchange for Harry's cooperation. While Harry thinks he's using the time to find a way to defeat the Dark Lord, he will realize that Voldemort is always one step ahead, and so long as he isn't killing anyone...what's the big deal? He has bigger things to worry about now, anyway. Includes dementors, pureblood culture, the prophecy, what exactly happened with Lily's sacrifice, magical breakthroughs, children Death Eaters, and portraits of family. Final pairing: H/D. Sequel to Black, in the Smothering Dark.

Brave Though The Stars They Make Me by @dwell-the-brave (108k)

After the events at the end of his Sixth Year, Draco Malfoy has been kept all but prisoner in his childhood home, Malfoy Manor. Alone, terrified, and desperate for some way out, he begins to have strange dreams - dreams of Harry Potter. Are they a trick of his mind? Or are they a way to change his fate, and a chance at redemption?

A Slight Inclination by @jilliancares (48k)

When Harry Potter is ten years old he accidentally winds up in Knockturn Alley, where he runs into a man named Lucius Malfoy. Harry is thus thrust into the wizarding world and makes his first ever friend, Draco Malfoy. Years later, Harry is on the hunt for horcruxes with his most trusted friends, Draco, Ron, Blaise, Hermione, and Pansy. Still, being in love with his best friend is bound to make their mission a little bit more difficult, isn't it?

Paradox series by kerfuffling (84k + 34k)

Thanks to a clever bit of magic and the help of an old acquaintance, Draco is given the chance to relive his years at Hogwarts with the knowledge of what exactly is in store for the future. However, when things tumble out of Draco's grasp, he finds himself losing his memories of the life he's already led as everything takes a startling turn away from what he'd always assumed to be his destiny. - Just because Draco's somehow gotten himself involved in Potter's suicide mission to defeat the Dark Lord doesn't mean he has to go quietly and actually act like a Gryffindor fool. And sure, he and Potter have some sort of relationship going on, but Draco's still a Slytherin, and he's going to bring his own brand of cunning to this cockamamy fool camping trip Potter's gone and got himself stuck in trying to save the world from evil lockets, gingers, and badly cooked food.

Death Comes for Us All by @lumosatnight (5k)

Burying his face in Draco’s hair, he can smell the smoke from the cigarette, can taste the ashes lingering in his mouth. Harry finds it comforting, a reminder that Draco has seen his worst and still chooses to stay.

Secrets by Vorabiza (395k)

Beginning with Draco's unexpected arrival at the Dursleys, Harry's summer after sixth year becomes filled with activity and many secrets. As his summer progresses, Harry generates several unexpected allies as he finds himself actively becoming the leader of the Light side. H/D post-HBP ~~Complete~~

Regulus: Do you now the story of the mouse, the lion and the thorn? James: Yeah. Regulus: Well, there you go, in case we ever meet a monster. James: You know that story’s about the mouse becoming friends with the lion after taking the thorn out of it’s paw though, right? Regulus: No, it’s not. The mouse kills the lion with the thorn. James: Who told you that? Regulus: My mother. James: James: That actually explains a lot.
