Themed list: Harry, rescued

Posted on February 27, 2008
Filed Under HP themed lists |

This is the list of fics where Somebody rescues Harry from the Dursleys, for Accioslash.

Usually I don’t make single-scenario based searches, but I’m ready to make an exception in this case. Firstly, what Accioslash wants, she gets :) And secondly, there are lots of fics with this scenario, so I guess the number deserves a separate list.

RULES

What I take:

- fics where anybody (Snape, Lupin, Tonks, Puss-in-Boots, whoever) comes and takes Harry from the Dursleys. Harry might be kept in a locked room, beaten, abused, raped, or he might be just unhappy - it doesn’t matter as long as it’s perceived as a rescue.
- slash, gen, het, anything.

King Draco’s code, or: What I don’t take:

- Harry should be actually rescued from the Dursleys. If he was visited but not taken away, if he run away on his own, if he was found in the street, it doesn’t qualify.
- the rescue operations we have seen in canon don’t count;
- big fat Nota Bene: speaking from bitter experience, the problem with some fics on this list is going to be the truly horrible way of how they are written. So I’m asking you to not bring fics where the author absolutely can’t cope with grammar and spelling. I realise that some people are less literate than others. But if the author doesn’t know that there are such things as commas, there’s a chance that I won’t take that fic. I’m tolerant enough in this respect, not being a native speaker myself, so if I am squicked with grammar, it’s usually saying something.
- no WIPs that have only a chapter or two written;
- no drabbles;
- do not bring fics you haven’t read;
- do not bring fics you didn’t like;
- do me a courtesy, please, do not leave only a link. I’d be really grateful if you tell me (besides the title and author) whether the fic is a WIP or completed, who rescues Harry, and what the pairing(s) is/are.

Fics are sorted in alphabetical order by TITLE (articles excluded, i.e. The Devil Will Drag You Under is placed under ‘D’)

Special marks:

# - liked
## - loved
NR - have not read
new - added in the last month or so
