October Story of the Month Nominations

 

How it works:

This thread is for you to nominate your favorite stories to be recognized as the HPFT Story of the Month.  Seconding isn't necessary as all stories will move on to the voting round.

Mid month, a prefect will post a voting poll with the stories that received the most votes. Don't worry about having to rush. You'll have about 10 days to read the stories and vote on your favorite!

We will announce the winner on the first of the month. The winner will receive a cool prize!

Please post your nominations in this thread using the following format:

 

[b]Title:[/b][b]Author: [/b][b]Link(s) to story With Rating: [/b][b]Warnings (if applicable): [/b][b]Why do you think this story deserves to be nominated?:[/b]

 

Rules for nomination:

1. All stories that have been nominated must have been updated sometime since July 2016.

2. Stories can be any genre, character type, fandom, or length.

3. No NC-17 rated stories.

4. Any story nominated must follow site guidelines.

5. Stories can be posted on HPFT, AO3, FF.net, or HPFF.

6. You may only nominate one story.

7. Stories do not have to be complete to be nominated. WIPs are acceptable.

8. While there are lots of lovely authors out there, we'd like to focus specifically on the ones who belong to HPFT, so try to double check that the person you nominate has an account here.

 

Nominations will close on September 17, 2017 at 11:59pm GMT

Title: Immortal Misconception 

Author: AbraxanUnicorn

Link: Immortal Misconceptions (m)

Warnings: Sexual Content, Slavery, Hate Speech & Domestic Abuse 

Reason for nominating: Despite the warnings on this, the piece is hilarious, humour can be so difficult to get right but Meera kills it. I think it's an amazing piece because I didn't stop laughing when reading. Such an enjoyable piece that will have you in stitches!

Title: Secret Keeper

Author: poppunkpadfoot

Link(s) to story With Rating: HPFT [T]

Warnings (if applicable): Substance Abuse

Why do you think this story deserves to be nominated?: Peter is definitely a character that doesn't tend to feature in fanfic and Kayla has done an amazing job here writing from his pov. I loved how it focused more on Peter's relationship with the other Marauders than I had seen in pretty much any other stories. It's a fantastic little snapshot into their lives (and of course there's Sirius too, would it be a Kayla story without him? :P )

Title: The Recombination of One's Soul and the Psychological Aftereffects: a Case Study

Author: @Rumpelstiltskin

Link(s) to story With Rating: HPFT (M)

Warnings (if applicable): Sexual Assault, Violence

Why do you think this story deserves to be nominated?: What is this, even. Like, I don't even understand what this is. Rumpel does an absolutely incredible job of presenting an alternative universe in which Tom Riddle experiences remorse and survives DH... and shows how incredibly toxic he continues to be despite that. Highly recommend.

Title:  The Ultimate Betrayal
Author: @RoxiMalfoy
Link(s) to story with rating: +Here (Teen)
Warnings (if applicable): None
Why do you think this story deserves to be nominated?: I had an extremely tough time picking a nomination for this month, but I ultimately chose this fic because of how well Deana wields Percy Weasley's character in this AU.  Having to throw Percy into a dark story where he was forced to decide between what the Dark Lord was offering and what was previously noted as the standard 'right way' was something that had to be done very carefully in order to stick to Percy's canonically pre-established characterization.  Deana uses that characterization to bring an entirely new depth to Percy that plays directly into the sequence of the plot in the first two exciting chapters of this awesome tale (hint, Deana, update ;) ).

Title: The Department

Author:  poppunkpadfoot

Link(s) to story With Rating: The Department (M)

Warnings (if applicable): Domestic Abuse 

Why do you think this story deserves to be nominated?: Kayla did a great job in describing Sirius Black, a rookie Auror who got to know his brother's death. She broke new ground in her writing.

Title: Beyond Repair

Author: MuggleMaybe

Link(s) to story With Rating: T

Warnings (if applicable): N/A

Why do you think this story deserves to be nominated?: This is such a great story about the relationship between Lily and Petunia. It''s a really refreshing fic and shows just how complicated a sibling relationship can be.
