Idle Curiosity

[Bob Schroeck]

Does anyone know if anyone's ever written a Harry Potter fic where Harry is a mongoose animagus?

I've seen one or two around, actually.
This one has Mongoose!Harry in it, though it's pretty much a background detail at the moment.---

Well, I was just thinking, Voldemort-snake ... Harry-mongoose...
Which no doubt is the same reasoning behind the story linked above.

What you want a Crossover with Harry Potter, and Kipling's "Riki Tikki Tavi?"
Their both good at killing snakes a magnitude over their weight class, and surviving.

Interesting, Bob, considering I was thinking the same exact thing about a month ago, and came up with a couple of other things that I plan on working into the HP arc of my epic, if I can ever find the motivation to sit down and write it, that is.
-Parseltongue: from his latent mongoose animagus form. After all, you'd expect a predator to be able to understand it's prey...
-The reason Harry didn't die immediately from the basilisk venom. Mongeese are extremely resistant to serpent venom.
