After accidentally falling down the fan-fiction rabbit hole, I've been managing my life by limiting myself only to the Harry Potter fandom. Which is more than enough for me, because Harry Potter is life.

I got into writing my own Harry Potter fanfiction, mainly as an exercise in world building. I saw other people trying concepts, and thought, "wouldn't it be more logical and fit with the character better if..." way more than is really healthy for me. I got particularly interested in how all Harry's relationships would completely change if he went back in time, because battle-weary-and-nineteen-year-old-Harry is not going to fulfil the same role in his friendships with idealistic-Hermione, innocent-Ron, and desperately-hopeful-Neville.

I'm also really interested in how everyday life works for wizards, so all the little details keep getting in the way of my story. If wizards don't use plastic, how do they clean their teeth? If the Prefect bathrooms are used by people from all four houses, how long is the walk between the bathroom on the 5th floor of Hogwarts and your dormitory? If this is a preferred option for prefects, where does everyone else bathe? Does this mean that the four Houses don't have their bathrooms in their towers and dungeons? How do Hogwarts' clubs run? What jobs are out there aside from working for Hogwarts, the Ministry, the goblins and Diagon Alley shops? Why does Hermione never try to save Harry from the Dursleys? What do the other students actually think of Harry (in between rumours)?
