Please help me find good fanfiction!

During the last couple of weeks I've lost myself to reading fanfiction again. And I've been reading nothing but Remus/OC stories. I know I once said I liked to read Remus/Hermione, but now, I don't understand what I saw in those stories. There is just something so incredibly addictive about a Remus/OC, preferably set in the Marauders era. I honestly don't understand what Rowling was thinking about, setting him up with Tonks. I know there is a thing called "opposites attract", but Remus and Tonks are so wrong. A puppy dies every time someone ship them. And while Remus and Hermione was fun for a while, you just reach a point where you realise how incredibly wrong that is too.

Oh my, I've rambled away from the point I was gonna make with this post. Why isn't there any good Remus/OC stories out there? I've been through most of the stories on HPFF and FF.net. There are lots there, but there are mostly one-shots and crap. I've read one okay and one good on HPFF. Both very similar, and thankfully I read the best of the two last. On FF.net I started one long okay one, but I eventually just skimmed through it. The sequel though, is amazing so far. She doesn't update much, but I reviewed and she promised the story wasn't abandoned.

I've kind of lost my point again. You can probably tell by now that I loose my focus when coming to Remus/OC. So my main point by this post:

Can someone please guide me to good stories with Remus/OC as the main pairing? The story doesn't have to be a "getting there" story, as long as Remus/OC is appearing I won't mind much, and of course, the story has to be WELL WRITTEN. I wouldn't mind some fluff, as long as it's WELL WRITTEN. And it can not be a one-shot!

I really think I like Remus/OC over Draco/OC at the moment. Though there certainly are better chances at a good Draco/OC...

Now, I'm off to desperately search the internet for anything worth reading, anything WELL WRITTEN that is not a one-shot.

  1. Have you read Tongue Tied by queenspuppet on HPFF? I swear that its one of the ONLY decent ones out there. Also, would you mind posting the links of any good Remus/oc stories you've read on here? I'm as desperate to find one as you are...

  2. Yes, I have read Tongue Tied! It was great!

    Sure, I can make a post like that! Everything to help fellow Remus-lovers:) I'll try to get it done later today!

  3. Ooh, yeah, I know that. I'm a Tonks/Remus fan myself, but read Remus/OC ALLLLLL the time. One of my favorite pairings. Ever. I'm making a Remus/OC one (I'm justawriter33 on fanfiction) but it's only on the first chapter, but i've written the chapters until chapter 10. A good one that I'm reading right now is:

    I want to walk in the full moon with you
    by:
    The Quiet Girl
    HPFF

    I know this amazing fanfiction; however, it is not a Remus/OC one. It's called
    "Hold me while I'm here"

    Check out my fanfiction page, I have a lot of good harry potter fanfictions in my 'favorites'. Only two aren't as good. Other than that, I clear out my favorites every few months or so....so enjoy?

  4. I've checked you out on FF.Net, and your story seems interesting :) Got another fanfiction I have to finish before I read anything major though, but it's slow. Too much epicness... :P

    I've actually just finished I Want To Walk In The Full Moon With You, it was good!

    Hold Me While I'm There seems interesting, but it hasn't been updated in a while. Is it complete, and she's just forgotten to mark it as complete? I have a lot of bad experience with wonderful stories that have just been abandoned without warning...

    By the way, I've got a fanfic rec page now, so people in my situation can easily find good fanfiction, find the link on my Links page, the blog is called Sinful's Fanfiction Loves. Not much on there right now, since I started it just a few days before I went on holiday, and it's difficult to remember why I loved fanfiction I've read ages ago, but I'm trying :)
