Completed Fanfiction Recommendations

This one's a decade old, but it's still a fun read.

"The Great Taboo Turkey Shoot", by bissek (the author of "The White Devil of the Moon"). Complete in one chapter.

tl;dr: In seventh year, Harry Potter actually reads the prophecy... and, with some mundane weapons, does what he needs to do.


(And I see that AO3 has a canonical tag "Albus Dumbledore Bashing" with over 7,900 examples, of which this story is one. YMMV.)

Ao3 tags are wild sometimes.

So I've been going through my Kindle for the last few months, reading everything in my fanfic folder (which held in excess of 650 works), deleting things that had never been completed or were just worse than I remembered (or both), and keeping just the best of the best of something like 15 years' accumulation. And I've come across things I don't even recognize, or forgot I had. Anyway, I figured I would start posting a few things here and/or maybe in the "Old School" thread. This story certainly qualifies for both, as it's finished and it's 20 years old:

Exact Change by Ozzallos. When Nabiki gets her hands on a time machine, she finds herself working desperately with Ranma to avert a disaster which will end up with the dojo destroyed, the Tendos impoverished, and herself crippled or worse -- and that's just the start.
