I just finished reading wear me like a locket around your throat by Vivypotter and I have such a good fic idea
So we know in the original HP Series Sirius is never mentioned being with someone. many people had a theory it was because of James and lily and that Sirius was kinda in love with them. If we take this idea and put it in a HP time travel fic do you know how Great it sounds.
In Wmlalayt we see a scene where Harry is helping Orion and Walburga fix their (soon to be) marriage. What if Orion and Walburga still have problems with their marriage and harry is always there to help. And before that tom and harry break up. At one point Orion and Walburga both fall in love with him. Let’s say harry is a third person in their marriage whether it’s platonic or romantic. Harry visits the black house everyday (or every other day) since his and tom break up and also help the black couple with their problems
Also don’t care if it’s platonic or romantic, I still think I’d be great idea
I’ve only seen this trope in wmlalayt but it dosent really count. I also loved Orion and Harry’s friendship in the story.

The actual "staghunter" Orion Black/Harry Potter side of this blog is incredibly niche because I am basically writing and ranting about my own personal headcanon of an AU of an AU of an AU, which means it's basically original fiction at this point. However, I can't in good conscience write an original story when the dynamic is based on characters from the Harry Potter franchise (as someone who clocked AtIas S/ix not knowing the author was a dram!one BNF), so dump and rant here it is.
However, posting a briefer here— the staghunter dynamic punnett square!
my shit handwriting aside, these characters basically are Harry Potter and Orion Black:
as they are in book canon (any info about them gleaned from things outside of that, including official film and stories penned by the terf themselves, will be called extra-canon from here on)
the same canon characters if they were born a girl
(the above both residing on the premise that harry time travels to hogwarts in the 1940s)
itruns!Orion, which is basically the philandering patriarch version of him written by the amazing metalomagnetic in her Sirius/Voldemort story It Runs In the Blood. It is my favorite version of Orion in fics so far since metalo is a very good writer and the character depth is deep as it is heartbreaking
ephesus!Harry which is my version of Harry (in a story I haven't published) where her and Hermione's consciousness are reincarnated/sent back in time in order to stave off or prevent the heat death and total obliteration of magic in the 21st century through committing acts of extreme magical environmental conservation and interspecies liberation from wizards in the 40s. and both of them are considered dangerous terrorists by the ICW
Harry born as a normal Muggle in the 1940s
Orion born as their generation's family Squib
Prescient!Harry, by which she is a pureblood witch born to Fleamont and Euphemia but due to some ~family curse/inheritance~ she remembers all her past lives and possible futures a la Alia Atreides
And then Metamorphmagus!Orion, heir to an ancient and noble wizarding family that FUCKIN HATES non-wizards
I like the idea across some fans that the Potter and Black families are tied in some crazy intergenerational curse somehow, like one is doomed at the hands of the other and the other is also their saviour type of stuff, and it is only when they choose each other that their houses are saved from eternal doom (like sirius&james bffs forever, or charlus & dorea's marriage, or narcissa sparing harry's life)
There's soooo much potential for a romeo + juliet vibe here because the point of R&J is that they are houses both alike in dignity - they are on equal footing, no fucked up power dynamics affecting them badly (although those are fun to explore taken in an extreme way. like yes ex-convict sirius would marry his goddaughter in a heartbeat in order to keep the power-hungry vultures off of marrying either of them and getting a child with either of their genes, family name, fortune, and magical inheritance before harry dies. hell, a marriage would mean he could make harry his heir! winwin! is it a bonus that she looks exactly like her dad- his soulmate and other half- but with her mom's eyes? sure!)
anyway as an explanation. harry in any universe would absolutely ruin orion in any universe— it's the type of ruination that varies.
(and the fact that orion has no canonical traits except for "rich, magical blood supremacist father" is a perfect little sandbox for anything)
anyway, explanations for each square under the cut!
canon Harry:
W/ canon orion - friends to lovers. harry is in different emotional states for each book so it would depend when he'd teleport but even if you picked the angriest, most done version of him to drop off in the universe it would work. I love tomarry- platonic, romantic, antagonistic and fucked up in any universe- and putting the honeybadger version of Harry with one horcrux head boy tom riddle is sooooo nice it would be entertaining for all involved. especially when you go into canon that voldemort and walburga would be head boy by the time orion would be in 5th year. Personally would love to see Tom fume that Harry made friends with Orion & other Slytherins effortlessly by being his angry, vicious self while he had to be polite and lose his cockney accent and be this composed guy who would never get the respect of the real purebloods even after his Slytherin heritage was revealed
with girl orion- friends to lovers. orion would have loads more baggage being the heir-that-could-never-be since she was born a girl, and she would totally rebel in a beatrice horseman (née sugarman) way. except that harry would do right by her and actually respect her so not as tragic as that
ItRuns!Orion for me is a straight, straight dude who longs for affection. Harry is kind in canon, but they don't have a shared history- why the fuck would he give affection to an asshole like him. now would orion have a sexuality crisis over the hot new transfer who doesn't give a shit about his name and treats him like everyone else? yes. would harry ever answer or indulge that question? no. not pre-sixth year harry anyway. however, harry who is still grieving for his recently dead godfather would totally fuck the guy who looks like him. repeatedly and with aftercare. orion is ruined either way. it would be the most intense, soul-shattering, life-changing emotional and sexual relationship of orion black's life and he will never bring it up or share it to anyone ever.
squib orion would resent canon harry so much. but oh, stranger things have risen from such a large pool of emotion
metamorphmagus orion, specifically one actively hiding his creatureness from his family, would definitely be harry's ride or die. canon harry has a weird relationship with his celebrity and last name because both are the reasons for his being an outcast. he would be in the best place to teach orion to deal with and possibly learn to love that part of himself
I'll explain the other ones in a different post since I have work and school to get to but yeah! Fun!
(I think Sirius would use James becoming his step father as an excuse to call him daddy in public)
It's honestly a crack ship. It's basically j*gulus but with Daddy instead. Hahahaha. Oh my gosh is that a hot take. Ignore me.
One fic I'm writing is James getting drunk and accidentally making a mirror booty call to Orion. Hahahaha. For a long fic, them getting together is arduous. Taking so many things into account. And painful, sadly Sirius will feel a degree of pain and worry for James. He'd think James deserves better. (Whether that better is Sirius himself or someone else, that depends on how angsty I'd write the fic.)
But let's skip to everything is chill and good. So yeah Sirius would so call him daddy in public to screw with him. James will always end up red as a tomato. He's tempted to say he calls Orion daddy too but he doesn't want to end his friendship (and risk his own life) so he doesn't. 😂
[Starting out a microfic challenge for this ship based on the orion black/harry potter punnett square I put up here]
"decathlon" - box 4 - retired harry pretending to be a muggle and canon orion
Orion was torn between tearing the Quidditch gear off the Muggle woman perched atop a motorbike, or staying in and finish his nightcap.
It wasn't his problem, he supposed, except that his house wards, custom-made and strong, were monitored severely by the Wizengamot for extra-magical ability outside of its boundaries, and all wix clothing emitted some beacon of magic from their maker's mark.
He'd be tagged. He can get out of it, but what a bothersome waste of time that would be.
It's not as if he can Apparate to the woman and Obliviate her, easy as it may be, distracted as she was with fishing through her lurid orange pockets.
Orion grimaced. Perhaps one could be forgiven for pawning off Chudley Cannons merch. But not for wearing them on the street.
As he was about to reach for the house wards to call all sorts of curses upon the woman, she triumphantly brandished a cigarette, stuck it in her mouth, and lit up the fag-end. The cupped flame illuminated a soft face surrounded by raven hair.
The Black family were starseers, born with unnaturally sharp eyes, and even from across the street Orion could make out long lashes, brown skin, and a vein-like scar slashed across her features.
The woman took a deep drag and an exhale, eyes searching for something and then-
Is she looking at Grimmauld Place?
Her gaze caught on Orion's. She gasped as he did, almost dropping her fag.
Orion didn't know what was more unsettling- that a Muggle saw through the Fidelius, Muggle-repelling charm; that her eyes were a bright shade of cat's eye green; or that they somehow recognized each other, though he was sure he had never seen her before.
During the voldy war,Harry gets adopted by a muggle veteran.
That’s it,that’s the fic.
Additionally: set after Harry time travels to the future after travelling to the past,and unknowingly Orion black and Tom come with him-they coincidentally get adopted by the veterans mates. Orion/harry.
Could also have angst potential as Harry thinks he’s abandoned another set of friends again
