Content

Here is round 2 of the polling for the next story. Please do feel free to comment with any questions/suggestions on what you guys would like to see. I am happy to consider any ideas that prove to be popular.

If anyone does make a suggestion that you like the look of, just leave a little heart on the comment.

1. Harry is raised by Cassiopeia Black

Rating: M

Pairing: TBD (This will be decided based on character interactions throughout the story).

Her family had been divided by two wars, and destroyed by them both. Knowing that only her Great Nephew was the last of the male Blacks, Cassiopeia had accepted the that the family would be ruined, but with a single letter, she is given hope that it may not be.

All that she needed to do was go against the will of Albus Dumbledore to secure a new heir, one who shared the blood of two prominent families. The boy, however, would bring with him more trouble than she could have imagined.

2. Harry Potter/ GOT Crossover

Rating: M+ (Expect what you would read or see in ASOIAF or the GOT TV Series). This will be based on both book and TV lore.

Pairing: TBD

With the rumours of the Targaryen girl having been gifted dragon eggs and married to a horse-lord with almost 100,000 Dothraki at his back, Robert Baratheon fears an imminent invasion. That is until Varys whispers of a man rumoured to have come face to face with a dragon before who had lived to speak of it.

Expecting to be greeted by the legend that had put an end to the Targaryen Dynasty, Harry ventures to King's Landing, curious as to why he had been sought out by the ruler of the seven kingdoms.

However, it is not Robert that greets him upon his arrival, but a boy, one more entitled and cruel than Draco had ever been..

Having  left his own world behind some years prior, how will Harry cope with a different war, with the magic of this land, and how will the Game of Thrones change with his presence?

3. Jon Snow/Ashara Dayne (Game of Thrones)

Synopsis:

Westeros failed to unite effectively against the Night King, and one by one, the kingdoms fell.

As the sole survivor, Jon Snow roams the lands, tormented by the hazy memories of those he held dear and his foe who, for reasons unknown to the rightful king, refuses to put an end to his misery.

He knows not why he yet breathes but finds himself on the frozen shore of the Isle of Faces where something within the Weirwood trees have been waiting for him. Rated Very Mature.

This will be a time travel story, prior to the Tourney of Harrenhal. with a fantastic cast of characters to play with.

If chosen, this will be written alongside the above winning story. Over a two week period, you would receive one chapter of this and three chapters of the winner.

I have really liked how you wrote Cassiopeia in both Stepping Back and your current story. Would be a lot of fun to see her featured.

Superjas

Is there a way to include that harry is somehow an elementalist

Kryn_Womble

Ashara/Jon -> rated Very Mature….I’m definitely not sickened but I am curious. Regardless, as much as I’d like to see option 1, I would like a change of scenery in terms of fic universes so the GOT/HP crossover has my vote. We’ve had so many origin stories that I’d love to see how a Harry at the relative height of his current power and maturity handles himself in ASOIAF. It’s be fun to see how the Baron writes a Harry with zero fatalistic responsibilities for the Greater Good or magical supervillains out for his blood specifically. I’ve got the feeling that would be a riot and barrel of laughs.

Jaymoneyman

I’m 100% sure you’re write a great Jon fic, but I’ve never been a fan of him. He just always seems boring to me

Rick Malone

These are absolutely my thoughts as well. I enjoy all the Baron’s stories, but I would enjoy a change of pace story set in the GoT universe with Harry causing havoc. As much as I celebrate his portrayal of the Black family, we’ve seen variations of them in all of his stories.

CJ

To be honest, i follow you because of my love of HP fanfic. Any sole HP story will always get my vote. I'd also love to see you incorporate some different characters as core to the story in the future - H Granger for example - i'd love to see your gritty take on her. (I haven't read the most recent story, waiting for it to complete :) )

PreFX48

I would really love to read anything from you in other fandoms. For now, it seems that you are kind of trapped in HP universe, and it would be really nice to know you as an independent author who writes in various universes, not just another HP fanfiction writer. You definitely have enough skills for that.

bart rijnhart

i like your take on the black family and there place with in the wizarding world. you have greatly exspanded on the HP lore and i do like your take on it. so i would like to see some things with a familiers something magical. more than just a snake because harry can talk to them.

Zane P

I love your novels focused in HP world, and i would love to see what you could do with a crossover bringing a badass harry into westeros

Well_sorry

Ye the got crossover would be amazing even if it does not get the most votes mby u could do a slipt upploads 1 day ect ect

Jackson Plate

No crossovers please. It's just pandering to 2 different fandoms with a much worse priduct. Mashing them together just cheapens it, not improves it. Please just keep going with what you've been doing. You've improved so much and are creating brilliant stories.

Brian Dibbins

I like crossovers but there's a reason I avoid Game of Thrones - it's too bloodthirsty and vicious for my preferences. I read for enjoyment, and like getting attached to the characters. GoT's author reminds me of the Dread Pirate Roberts from The Princess Bride; "Good night, Westley, good work, sleep well... I'll most likely kill you in the morning." With the amount of fridging he does, ol' George should become a whitegoods salesman. "...and check out this little beauty! It's got a large crisper, quick chill zone, and more than enough room for at least two significant others - it's even on sale!"

Jay Emberhowl

Would deffinitely find the hp/got xover interesting to read , it seems like there are only a few good authors writing those and actually finishing/continuing them, when you say a mix of books and show do you mean to add book characters and plots and a mix of characters ages?

Porksword

Maybe instead of an ASOIAF crossover, you use its setting as a base and replace the existing houses with HP houses? Rather than Harry as a half-blood, he's the bastard son of the now extinct Potters who rule The North. James, who was the product of two of the most influential/powerful houses, Potter/Stark and Black/Targaryen, was assassinated under the orders of the ever more paranoid King Thomas Gaunt, who took the throne after usurping the Blacks with the support of the Andals/Dark Purebloods. Some other houses seem to naturally fit together, i.e. Malfoy/Lannister, Greengrass/Tyrell, Zabini/Martell etc.

GeorgieD

Man I am really not into crossovers. There are tons of HP stories to tell.

John Brown

Now that it’s clear that the majority has voted for the Durmstrang story and that it would win, I think the best pairing for it would be Fleur. And my reasoning behind choosing it is that, Harry being brought up by Cassiopeia black is most likely to have a superiority complex and is going to be a bit bigoted and his interaction with Fleur would make their relationship a love/hate one ,where even though he starts off on bad terms with her would eventually be forced to think beyond what he has been taught and would be forced to choose whether what he has been taught is true or just a propaganda which would give him and his relationship a bit more depth because in all your stories I have read till now (other than AFFTS) has been quite linear with Harry having a firm set of ideals and him wanting to kill Voldemort ,not for Vengeance for his parents but for the ‘greater good’ but it would be really cool to see a Black who is more interested in killing an enemy than saving a bunch of random people and the clash of these philosophies and struggles Harry faces to get there. This idea has so much potential because there is no timeline of events that would happen as it is set in a completely different place and you would have so much more room to expand the magical world just like the Sinister Man did in POS, this fic has the potential of being your longest and quite potential your best yet.

John Brown

I have made my thoughts on Jon/Ashara pairing quite clear in the Past so I wouldn’t go there again, imo Ashara is a character similar to Daphne in HP in the fact that we know so little about her that she is almost an OC still from what we know of her I think the only pairing that would make sense with her is an OC Targaryen or Ned Stark. On the other hand, HP/ASOIAF crossover is a really intriguing idea and I think that if possible you should write it along with the Black story with 1 chapter of each story per week instead of 2 chapters of just one story. Anyways, I would love to see you write an AU ASOIAF story set before Roberts’s rebellion but without any time travel, you have so many interesting characters that you don’t need Jon Snow and I think that when you are writing ASOIAF story it can’t be about a protagonist like in Harry Potter. The main intrigue of George’s book is that they were completely unpredictable and that every character is trying to survive the political manoeuvring and come up on top and anyone can die at any time if he/she doesn’t play it right so if you choose a protagonist we know that person has ‘plot armour’ and wouldn’t die.

RC

Ill vote for the first option. Id just like to see a truly dark harry, one where maybe the black madness slightly influences him when cass brings him into the family completely ..

Jonathan Fish

I’m not a huge fan of the crossover. I’m very much here for the time travel, That era of GoT hasn’t been done enough justice and I think this is a solid idea that could turn into something incredible.

Ondrej Mišo

There's literally no story of Baron's in which Harry gives a fuck about the greater good. It's always mostly personal vendetta, getting the rest of the world rid of Voldemort is just a byproduct. HTB and SB both say it specifically, Green in the Grey outright says he doesnt give a fuck about the people and he would move back to Switzerland if Charlie wasnt killed (and if he wasnt in love with Tonks). I would be quite disappointed if he was paired with Fleur in the new story, partially because I hate her with a passion, but also because... just why? He's on Durmstrang, I'm sure there are girls there. Or there are girls back in Britain, it doesnt have to be Daphne, it could be Susan Bones for example (kinda liberal pureblood, so not the usual) or even somebody else than a pureblood. Anybody than the moronic fairy turned kentucky fried chicken.

John Brown

@Ondrej Miso It's okay if you don't like Fleur mate, in my opinion she would be perfect for this far better than creating an OC and I think you misunderstood what I meant by 'greater good', what I meant by that was that in all the stories I have read so far Harry chose to become a Hero for some reason or the other in HTB he wants be like his grandfather and even though he wants to kill Voldemort he also wants to save other people, same with SB he goes back in time not just to kill Voldemort but to save the pure blood families and in turn the magical society, in WTBA he became a Hit wizard to save people because that's what he is good at. And even though I love all these stories I would like to see more depth in Harry's Character not just a hero on a pedestal but a cold calculating person who cares about people around him but doesn't think that needs to save the world, the only story I think he didn't really care if he was a hero or not was AFFTS.

Celexs

This is tough because I would enjoy reading all three of these stories. My vote goes to the crossover this time.

Travis

Hoping he's gonna join their dueling club (if implemented the teachers and seniors in the club will be brutal)

Xk

While I disagree that the Baron's stories have been about "The Greater Good", I also am rooting for a Harry/Fleur pairing. I've really loved the action and romance in all of The Baron's stories, but I did find the romantic aspect of A Flower for the Soul underwhelming, despite it being my favorite pairing.

LittleHowy

Lee has written 6 great HP fanfics and I'm excited to see him dabble in something else! I'm surprised at how many people are so against it. Maybe writing something will give him inspiration to make better HP fics in the future. There are so many HP fics and so few GOT fics that his will probably jump to number 1. GOT has so much intrigue, mysteries, and reveals that make it a vast source of inspiration to make a fanfic out of. The whole point of time-travel fanfic is to change things or go to different path from canon; with all the character deaths maybe Harry will be able to do something about it. I like the Ashara/Jon pairing. Her love interests when she was alive were Brandon Stark and the one-sided Barristan Selmy, replacing either them with Jon doesn't seem out of the realm of possibility. For Harry/GOT I wouldn't mind seeing Harry with either Margaery or Arriane, there can be a lot of plot and alliances made with either of those as an option. But whichever you chose, I hope Harry saves Ned and his family! #SaveTheStarks Great Poll options!

John Brown

In the crossover story Ned Stark would still be dead because Joffrey is already king when Harry will get there.Also I have read ASOIAF 4 times and never have I read that or seen it being implied that Brandon Stark was Ashara’s love interest, the only thing we know about it is from Barristan Selmy’s pov where he thinks about how she looked at ‘Stark’ when Rhaegar crowned Lyanna the queen of love and beauty, we have absolutely no clue what her personality or Brandon Stark’s personality was like other than that he had a bad temper (imo really stupid) and he wanted to marry Barbery Ryswell (or that’s what he told her) and was already engaged to Catelyn Tully, people thought that Ashara and Ned were a thing as described by Harwin to Arya in the Storm of Swords and implied by Cersei’s comment in the Game of thrones(the book) but we don’t know anything for sure. So I would love to know where you got that Ashara and Brandon were a thing.

LittleHowy

Well hopefully Harry shows up before the execution. Impressive, 4 times is 4x more than me but you forgot about her stillborn daughter that Barristan thought about right before he mentioned a Stark. Your right it is just a theory based on how GRRM likes to mislead us and what Barristan said in Dance of Dragons, The Kingbreaker chapter, “But Ashara’s daughter had been stillborn, and his fair lady had thrown herself from a tower soon after, mad with grief for the child she had lost, and perhaps for the man who had dishonored her at Harrenhal as well.” “If I had unhorsed Rhaegar and crowned Ashara queen of love and beauty, might she have looked to me instead of Stark?” If we assume the man at Harrenhal and the Stark she looked at are the same person, then which Stark did she grieve for and is it grief because he's now dead (Brandon) or grief because he's now married (Ned). Barristan doesn’t think highly of the Stark who ‘dishonored’ Ashara, but speaks up for Ned Stark and calls him ‘honorable’? Barristan believes she had a stillborn daughter, but knowing Ned, how likely is it that Ned dishonored Ashara before marriage? So, who was the 'Stark' that Ashara looked at? Ned was quick to get mad when Ashara is mentioned as Jon’s mother when he came back from Starfall. Do the rumors make him angry because his ‘real’ child died along with Ashara and Jon’s not hers, or is it because Ned would not dishonor his brother's women and did not want rumors of how a Stark, his brother, dishonored a noble lady who is now dead along with her daughter/his niece, the last memory of his older brother, like how Jon's the last memory of his sister….....or maybe it's something completely different and the baby was Oberyn's all along MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA. The rumors that Catelyn and Cersei both mention involving Ned with Ashara hint there might have been something, but it seems like another false lead and another secret Ned has been forced to guard. Now he has to protect the honor of his brother like how he ‘lies’ (half-truths/withholding information) to protect Robert from finding out about his bastard ‘heirs’ right before he's about die, lies to protect Howland Reed’s honor by claiming he himself beat the Sword of the Morning when Howland in-fact stabs Ser Arthur in the back (in the show), lies about being a traitor to protect Sansa, and ‘lies’ to protect the secret of Lyanna/Jon (supposedly). Ned suffers throughout the first book for the lies he holds and eventually dies, confessing to a lie that should have never been told. None of what I wrote is solid evidence, but then again R+L=J hasn’t been proven in the books yet either. I suspect it based on the hints that have been provided, Ned could've been the one to dishonor Ashara. We won't know the truth until book 6/7 come out (in 2048), even then we might not get the answers. Mostly though I like the theory because I feel Ned and Cat were meant for each other; one married for Family, Duty, and Honor, while the other married to honor his father/brother’s promise and to save his sister. Yet, after everything, they truly fell in love with one another showing that not all arranged marriages end up in disaster like Robert and Cersei…..Next time I’ll make it clear I’m just theorizing, kay :)

Doraemax

The first option is indeed intriguing. But alas, a crossover is more...fantastical. huuu

Shae S

I have never watched one episode of GoT. Not one.
