Hello everyone I was wondering if anyone knew any Little!Harry Potter fanfic that are completed or very good. I've read some, but they aren't completed and there's not that many. So if you send links that you've read that would be very much appreciated!
In The Good Place, we are told that time in the afterlife works along the Jeremy Bearimy pattern. At the end of the final season, repeated references are made to the passage of time in terms of numbers of Bearimies.

From my cursory knowledge, in Warhammer 40K the Genestealer Cults do make it very obvious what they are. Their names are like “Cult of the Innerwyrm” (duh) or “Cult of the Four-armed Emperor” (extra limbs… as the Genestealers… it can’t be). And their cult symbols contain always variations of the ...
While searching through recently active Harry Potter questions I noticed a lot are bumped up because of brand new users who have 'modified' them somehow. However, when I click on modified to see what has changed, it just links me to the question itself, with nothing highlighted. What modification...

After Palpatine killed Windu, Anakin had a shock on his own action. He even reflected:
What have I done?
But, then, Palpatine asked him to become his apprentice to learn the ways of the dark side.
Why did Anakin agree to this? Earlier, he wanted Windu to arrest Palpatine. Why didn't he try...
I read this online in the '90s or 2000s.
The male protagonist is a counterculture artistic type who talks about how they and their friends throw all the most coveted parties. In the larger culture, people make money by advertising to people around them. In one scene at a diner, a teenager show...

I read some book about a boy had superpowers and he met a man who had same powers as him (I can't really remember the power but I think it was to control things). Then he went up a mountain with a singer who had the same powers as him too and he was inviting him to his group so they can do someth...
