![]() ![]() ![]() I have no words to say how amazing this is. "disappear like this word" /abracadabra/ "I will destroy as I speak" Priceless. (J.K. Rowling translates Avada Kedavra as "let the thing be destroyed" but I actually learned it exactly the same way you did from my Hebrew school teacher - "I will destroy as I speak." That makes some sense to me because the root DBR or "daber" is "to speak", but I'm not sure what the true Aramaic meaning was.) I love your "Tom Riddle is still Tom Riddle, he's just pretending to be a Hufflepuff" but at the same time it makes me deeply uncomfortable. Gorgeous. |
![]() ![]() ![]() So many intriguing possibilities! I wonder what sort of lives the Potters, Weasleys and Grangers might be living in the early 1990's of a Magical Britain shaped by this version of Tom Riddle. |
![]() ![]() ![]() this is really good! thanks for sharing it :) |
![]() ![]() Ok. Found this ficbtrough a tiktok rec. And they are right! Its an amazing story! Thank you for sharing it! |
![]() ![]() This story is great! It would be even better to read a sequel to this, of how it affects the entire Harry Potter story. Does Tom get married and have children? Does one of Tom's children or decedents open the Chamber of Secrets? The avenues are limitless. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Wow Tom Riddle as a Hufflepuff would have been so much better. I thought this was so different and so good. |
![]() ![]() ![]() It's a fascinating tale of alternate perspectives. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Go! Go! Hufflepuff! |
![]() ![]() ![]() "'Muggle' makes Tom think of 'nigger', of the absolute power one person can have over another and how it can be expressed casually in a single word." Excellent. |
![]() ![]() ![]() THIS IS AMAZING. simply beautiful and refreshing |
![]() ![]() As an edgy, manipulative teen I was adamant I'd be a Slytherin, but as I've aged I would be begging the hat for Hufflepuff. I value hard work, honesty and fairness most now, even if they lack the power they should in the world. My optimistic side sees how they're effective in a small scale, my cynical side sees how they're dismissed like Hufflepuff is, but I choose optimism and belonging now:) |
![]() ![]() ![]() Beautiful. What a great reread. |
![]() ![]() ![]() yeah totally agree! |
![]() ![]() ![]() Go, fellow 'Puff! |
![]() ![]() ![]() This is a good story, wish there was more of it! |
