They exist? I've read more than a few.

I'm... confused. If it's HP fanfic, and it takes place at Hogwarts... what's AU about it?

I'm pretty sure they exist and that I even read one or two, but for the life of me I can't remember what fandoms they were. I wanna say that there were fills for Hogwarts AUs on a kinkmeme I frequent(ed), but I don't remember which one.

Does anyone have recs for these kind of fics?

my fandom is only a few months old and iirc we already have two or three that i know of. i'm also writing one!

If you'd have fun writing it, do it. and post if you want.

Because onsidering all the WTF-ery that already exist in the fandom, you'd hardly be shocking anyone :p

I can't swallow the idea that any kind of fic doesn't exist in Harry Potter fandom.

I'm actually impressed I'm not the only person still considering writing a HP fic, period. Seriously, I feel like fandom's pretty much dead except exchange stuff... so glad to see I'm not alone, regardless of what you want to write. :)

I feel like most of the bigger fandoms do have this sort of fic. Probably some of the smaller ones too; HP is popular, yo. I know in the X-Men: First Class fandom there are at least four or five of these, and that was months ago (so there might be even more now, idk). But yea...they exist, I guess you're just looking in the wrong places?

Joining in the "they exist!" crowd. There's at least one RP on DW that has this as its premise.

sortinghat_rp

Where the fuck have you been? Those definitely exist.

Yeah, they exist. Sorry you haven't found any in your fandom, OP? :(

Those are actually a pretty common type of AU. Most large fandoms have at least one Harry Potter fusion or crossover fic. I think that Teen Wolf for example (here's one: http://archiveofourown.org/works/424621/chapters/711915) has...two or three maybe? And it was a pretty big thing with X-men First Class too. There was even some wank over whether Erik would be in Slytherin or not. It was kind of hilarious.

Anyway, here's a tag you might like: http://archiveofourown.org/tags/Alternate%20Universe%20-%20Hogwarts/works

There's a very good one for BBC!Sherlock called The Magic of Deduction. John and Sherlock go to Hogwarts long after the events of the Harry Potters books and have their own adventures in the world of magic.

I've actually read more Hogwarts AUs than I have HP crossovers.

Did I misread the secret? It sounds like they're saying they don't want crossovers where half the commenters are giving links to crossover fics.

That said, I really would like to read something like that. Where Voldemort never existed and they're just in class. I'm tempted to write something and I would definitely read it if it was written

These are like the first type of AU that comes to mind, how on Earth you didn't now they exist? xD

(Anonymous) - 2012-09-08 22:17 (UTC) - Expand

Thank you everyone commenting, especially for the recs... but I'm not in any of those fandoms. Still seeing Hogwarts AUs exist, I feel better about wanting to write one(or a few) for my own fandoms.

I know Hogwarts!AU is a popular thing with fanart for The Avengers/Marvel Cinematic Universe, but I don't know about fic because I don't go looking for fics as much.

Try Twisting the Hellmouth. It's ostensibly a crossover site, but lots of fusions end up there too. Skoosiepants wrote an awesome SGA fusion series.

This is actually the first thing I look for when I get into a fandom...

Um isn't there a whole HS AU genre dedicated to this?

I'm not sure what fandom you're in, but these are actually really quite common?

just write it! i'm writing one like that right now, with the sherlock characters, and i've read one before with the charactes from the social network

Just read an Avengers one today, so they do exist.
