History FanFic / PartiallyKissedHero

* AdaptationalDumbass: Pretty much everyone, else Harry and company wouldn't be able to run rings around them--in fact, Harry calls most of the wizarding world morons more than once. However, poor Minerva [=McGonagall=] deserves special mention here. She appears to be one of the few characters Ornstead ''likes'' but could not justifiably pry out from under her canonical UndyingLoyalty to Dumbledore. As such, she is hoodwinked and fooled by Harry's schemes and pranks an innumerable number of times, then [[spoiler:brainwashed and turned into one of Harry’s dryad slaves]].

** Voldemort in canon is the BigBad. [[spoiler: Here, he is easily defeated by a villain less competent than his canonical self.]]

* AlwaysChaoticEvil: Unlike in canon, goblins are depicted as being, without exception, inherently cruel and malicious.

* InformedAbility: Dumbledore, who is supposed to be a greater threat to Harry than Voldemort and the most powerful, dangerous and informed wizard on the planet, is fooled into believing that a “Colonel Sanders” and other Muggle advertisement icons are actually Dark wizards working to undermine his power. He is stated to be incredibly intelligent, but even when not under the influence of Malaclaw venom acts like a moron. Only a handful of times does he ever display that informed competence.

* PlotArmor: Quite a baffling example. The fic spends 70-odd chapters buffing up its protagonists with every defense imaginable, going above and beyond what would be reasonable, and then sharing those buffs among its entire heroic cast, in preparation for a final confrontation with Dumbledore the author does not ever actually write.

* SpaceJews: Rowling has been accused of leaning into antisemitic stereotypes in the way she portrays the goblins, but Ornstead takes this to the highest degree by having them constantly cheat people out of money and enjoy devouring human children (which is disturbingly reminiscent of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_libel blood libel]]).

* StayingAlive: Dumbledore and Snape, who are repeatedly killed by Harry, Luna and Hermione in a variety of really sadistic ways, but come back each time because Dumbledore is CrazyPrepared and has at least ''[[spoiler:thirteen]] Horcruxes'' to ensure his immortality.

** The rampant demonization of goblins has been suggested to be at least partly a shot at fanfiction in which Harry or some other character befriends them and gets loads of stuff as a result. As opposed to ''this'' Harry befriending fairies and getting loads of powerups as a result, which is apparently fine.

* TheStraightAndArrowPath: {{Enforced}} to make the story more of a HighFantasy.

* YourHeadASplode: Happens to [[spoiler:Snape]] in Chapter 9.

* AuthorFilibuster: Every chapter has at least one of these. Some chapters are nothing ''but'' these. [[SignatureStyle This is a trademark of Ornstead’s writing.]]
* BigBad: Dumbledore. Though he is too ineffectual for this role in practice, the trope is definitely intended.

* BigGood: The Fairy Queen is supposed to be this. [[spoiler: However, she [[DesignatedHero rewards Harry with a happy childhood in thanks for him turning women into breeder machines.]]]]

* ContrivedCoincidence: Malaclaw venom causes these due to it being bad luck in a bottle.

* CurbStompBattle: All battles in the story, except the duel between Moody and Bellatrix and the fight against the Acromantulas.

* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: In Chapter 71, Trelawney's InnerMonologue states (and the author's note agrees) that Snape's less-than-stellar background doesn't give him license to bully his students.

* JokerImmunity: Were Dumbledore to be defeated, there would be no story. There are over 100 chapters of story.

* KarmicRape: [[spoiler:Luna honestly believes this can apply to children.]]

* PoliticallyIncorrectHero: Harry believes women should be brainwashed to do his bidding and give him kids, that all goblins are evil, and that the best way to solve the problem of racism is to turn everyone white. His minion Alice [[spoiler:nukes the Muslims]] to his approval. In spite of being a reactionary monarchist in all but name, Harry is supposed to be the hero.

* GroinAttack: [[DoubleSubversion Doubly subverted]]: Trelawney thinks of castrating [[spoiler:Snape with his mother's waffle iron when he is three, but doesn't go through with it because she realizes that would be wrong]]. However, after encountering him again when [[spoiler:he's eight, she actually does it]]. [[MoralMyopia We are supposed to root for her.]]

* SpaceJews: Rowling has been accused of leaning into antisemitic stereotypes in the way she portrays the goblins, but Lionheart takes this to the highest degree by having them constantly cheat people out of money and enjoy devouring human children (which is disturbingly reminiscent of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_libel blood libel]]).

** [[Literature/AlicesAdventuresInWonderland Alice]] now has the power to [[WorldOfChaos warp reality as she sees fit]] wherever she wants. Though Wonderland doesn’t follow logic in the book, this only applies within its boundaries, not outside them.
* AdaptationalDumbass: Pretty much everyone, else Harry and company wouldn't be able to run rings around them--in fact, Harry calls most of the wizarding world morons in his internal narration more than once. However, poor Minerva [=McGonagall=] deserves special mention here. She appears to be one of the few characters Ornstead ''likes'' but could not justifiably pry out from under her canonical UndyingLoyalty to Dumbledore. As such, she is hoodwinked and fooled by Harry's schemes and pranks an innumerable number of times, and ultimately [[spoiler:brainwashed and turned into one of Harry’s dryad slaves]].
* AdaptationalJobChange: Or past job change, in this case. This story claims that Voldemort worked in the Department of Mysteries as an Unspeakable at some point, which was never even implied in canon.

** Canonically, Horcruxes protect against death from any means, including old age, albeit reducing one to a wraith were one to be mortally injured. In this story, they only protect against unnatural death, and the soul fragment will disappear when the body dies of old age. This leads to the bizarre conclusion that Dumbledore actually benefits from being repeatedly killed, since it slows down his aging. (Despite this, they are also stronger in some respects because they can bring someone back to life even when their body lost their soul to a Dementor.)

** This fanfiction has probably the weakest vampires in any media. They can die by any type of light or water, among other things. Even amputation of their legs by common axes can stop them with ease, despite them being undead, and their sole purpose is as cannon fodder.
** Snape in canon could get away with lying to Voldemort's face for years, beat Harry in a fight, and was overall pretty competent. Here, his only role is to be brutally tortured by Harry, who can also dig through his mind without any difficulty. While Dumbledore gets similar treatment, Snape doesn't even get the few moments of competence and informed abilities of the Headmaster.

* AlternateUniverse: It starts with an evil Dumbledore and far more abusive Dursleys in the BackStory, and many other characters are drastically different from their canonical selves based on whether they side with Harry or [[ProtagonistCenteredMorality do not]]. However, much later on in the story, [[spoiler:time travel is used to create an alternate universe within the story, rewriting the past so as to give Harry a happy childhood, interspersed with time at the Dursleys, with the memories of each being suppressed while he experiences the other so as to appear to preserve the timeline, at least until the author drops such pretense]].

** Harry shows some students ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings'', saying the movies are about magical history as a joke. Quite the accomplishment, since the first movie wouldn’t be released for another eight years.

** Hermione is said to [[BirthdayHater dislike her birthday]] because it falls on Talk Like a Pirate Day. But that day wouldn't exist until two years after the story takes place. Then they [[OneShotRevisionism change the past]] [[AuthorsSavingThrow so that it existed since the 1970s]].

** Hermione describes herself as nearly done with puberty in her inner monologue at one point. She's thirteen years old at the time. Puberty in girls generally doesn't end until at least the age of sixteen, and since Hermione is both very intelligent and the daughter of two dentists, she ought to know that.
** [[spoiler:Snape]] being castrated as a young boy in an alternate timeline is said to have resulted in him becoming fatter than he did originally. While eunuchs are widely stereotyped as fat, being castrated before puberty usually actually results in a human male becoming thin and androgynous.

** Chapter 97 establishes that the entirety of the British magical economy relies on Dumbledore's smuggled goods to function, because his laws have put so many restrictions on manufacturing or importing goods that it is literally impossible to buy, sell, or otherwise acquire literally anything. Somehow this utter stranglehold on supply hasn't encouraged a single other smuggler to go into business nor created a black market.

* AuthorAppeal: All of the women are easily won over with really shiny things, immortality, eternal beauty or power. For all that, they don’t mind being forced into anything, and happily accept Harry as their Dark—er, I mean, ''[[NewSpeak Light Lord]]'' and master.

* BigBad: Dumbledore. Though he is too ineffective for this role in practice, it is definitely intended.
* BigBadWannabe: Voldemort. He is resurrected by [[RonTheDeathEater Dumbledore]] to be used as a scapegoat. He fights [[ButtMonkey Dumbledore]] but [[spoiler:loses badly, being forced to submit]], and when he [[spoiler:seizes political power, he can't keep what he conquered and his followers start turning on him]].
* BigBrotherIsWatching: Dumbledore knows everything that goes on in Hogwarts and can see any possible threat to him... [[IdiotBall except for]] the attempts on his life and the culprits behind the constant attacks and inconveniences caused by Harry and company.

* BlackAndWhiteMorality: Harry and his harem are supposed to be pure good, while Dumbledore and his allies pure evil, to the point the Headmaster is a mustache-twirling villain. In practice, many see it as EvilVersusEvil.
* {{Brainwashing}}: [[spoiler:Harry]] does this to the entire [[spoiler:mental damage ward at St. Mungo's]] to make them loyal to him. [[ProtagonistCenteredMorality This is never criticized in-story, despite Dumbledore being ruthlessly villainized for doing the same.]]

** Draco is thrown off a bridge, [[spoiler:tortured into insanity by a Confunded Snape, and turned into a girl and forced to bear children to Crabbe and Goyle. And then their fathers]].

** The entire Wizarding World, apparently, as Harry and Hermione have no difficulty convincing their classmates and even their teachers that ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings'' and ''Film/{{Ghostbusters|1984}}'' are recordings of real events. [[FridgeLogic Even though Hermione isn’t the only Muggle-born in the school.]] And even though wizards ''do'' have their own fiction.[[note]]Ron has a collection of wizard comic books, and ''Tales of Beedle the Bard'' is a fairy tale anthology, with people like Xeno Lovegood who treat it as BasedOnATrueStory viewed as {{Cloudcuckoolander}}s.[[/note]] And despite a later chapter revealing that not only do wizards publish their own fiction, but the writers are fans of Muggle action movies.

** Dumbledore's endgame is confusing, to say the least. In one chapter, his plan is to have Harry die fighting Voldemort, so he can inherit Lily's protection; in another, he was counting on the Dursleys killing Harry before the latter can die fighting Voldemort. It all makes about as much sense as everything else.
** Due to the constant (ab)use of TimeTravel, bursts of AnachronicOrder, and countless {{retcon}}s, it's incredibly difficult to keep track of when anything after the first encounter with the fairies is supposed to be happening in relation to anything else.

* CosmicRetcon: Pulled off several times. The most notable is when Queen Alice uses her powers to give Harry the personality traits and powers of the in-universe "Boy-Who-Lived" books. This has the side effect of making everything ''else'' from those books real as well - which includes giving Harry property on every habitable piece of land in the world, rewriting Lily's past so that she's descended from every famous witch or wizard who ever lived, and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking getting Harry engaged to the Patil sisters]].
* CrackFic: At times can match ''Fanfic/ThirtyHs'' in sheer weirdness. One example would be the incident in which Harry is inadvertently transformed into a flower garden, which allows Luna to excise his remaining personality flaws (or rather, the ones that [[IgnorantOfTheirOwnIgnorance the author notices]]) by going weeding.

* DirtyCommunists: The author believes this trope to be TruthInTelevision to an extent that even Whittaker Chambers likely would have considered extreme, and as such makes the entire Soviet population, including the civilians, AlwaysChaoticEvil. They ban a technology that would ([[ArtisticLicensePhysics according to the author]]) permit cheap and easy space colonization purely out of spite that they lost the Space Race. A nameless Russian wizard (implied to be Dolohov) assassinates Prince Charles at his wedding for no reason. But naturally, it is taken way too far. It’s one thing to be anti-communist; it’s another thing entirely to justify [[spoiler:nuking the Soviet Union's capital and killing every member of their government, condemning the survivors to decades of anarchy]]. Naturally, he also believes the Western Bloc [[BlackAndWhiteInsanity to have been perfectly innocent of any foul play]], to the point where he says that the best thing that could ever happen to the people of any Third World state is for their country to be invaded by the United States.

* DroppedABridgeOnHim: [[spoiler:Crabbe and Goyle]] are casually killed off when a magically enlarged bundimun breaks into the Slytherin common room. They had only made a single, minor appearance beforehand, scores of chapters earlier.
* DueToTheDead: Thoroughly {{averted}}: [[spoiler:Harry casually walks into Voldemort's flooded cave and, after taking the fake locket stored there, sets all of the Inferi to work on his farmland, rather than destroying them. If this doesn't seem so bad, keep in mind that these are all but explicitly stated to be Voldemort's cache of murder victims.]]

* EunuchsAreEvil: This story claims that Voldemort sacrificed his sex organs in a Dark ritual to make him ageless.

* ExpoSpeak: Most of the story’s length consists of Harry or Luna lecturing Hermione on whatever inane topic they desire, apparently because she [[AdaptationalDumbass doesn’t understand even basic facts of the wizarding world]].

* TheFairFolk: Harry, Hermione and Luna become the champions of [[spoiler:the Fairy Queen]] who seeks to defeat Dumbledore and bring magic back the way it used to be. Fairy magic is “more magical than magic.” Whatever that means...
* FixFic: Lionheart makes no secret of his disdain for Rowling and her work, to the point that he seems to think he is correcting grand flaws in the Harry Potter universe.
* FluffyTheTerrible: At one point, the trio acquires a pet basilisk... and names her Blinky.

* ForWantOfANail: Like many fanfictions, this attempts such a scenario, where the nail is that Harry is exposed to corrupting magic early on. However, it ultimately averts this trope as a myriad of other factors are changed that are irrelevant to Harry's experience. It also attempts to justify the nail so hard that Harry has already undergone a personality overhaul, power upgrade, and friendship reassessment before the nail even happens.

* GoodGirlsAvoidAbortion: Also boys, since casting a castration hex is apparently punishable by [[spoiler:ten years forced pregnancy, along with a permanent sex change if the offender were not female at the time he cast it]]. Apparently our “heroes” endorse this.

* HistoricalHeroUpgrade: [[InUniverse According to Luna]], Literature/{{Rapunzel}}'s, Literature/{{Snow White}}'s, and Literature/{{Cinderella}}'s princes [[DecompositeCharacter were all the same person]], who was [[VillainWithGoodPublicity a malicious and greedy rake with a good reputation]].

** UsefulNotes/NapoleonBonaparte is said to have deliberately used tall soldiers as CannonFodder due to [[HeightAngst insecurity at his small stature]]. Not only was Napoleon probably not as short as he's often thought to be in the Anglosphere, there's also absolutely no credible evidence that he ever did anything like this.
** While the Soviet Union was a totalitarian state with a terrible human rights record, it didn't have the OrionDrive banned out of petty anger at having lost the Space Race, as Lionheart claims. Rather, the ban was because of the very real risk of nuclear catastrophe if something went wrong.

* HonorRelatedAbuse: When [[spoiler:Draco]] gets on Harry’s bad side, [[spoiler:Narcissa]] just lets Harry do whatever he wants to her own son, because he shouldn’t have gotten on the wrong side of someone higher up on the family hierarchy.
* HowUnscientific: Chapters 71 through 76. Trelawney pushes for [[spoiler:the space programs of Earth to colonize the Moon, Mars, and other planets with dryad trees to make them effectively invulnerable (because as as long as their trees are safe, they can’t die) with Orion-type nuclear pulse propulsion ships that can get out to Pluto and back within a year]].

** Nobody sees through the enemy bluffs. Ever. Dumbledore fails to realize that there is no Dark Lord Colonel Sanders even after [[spoiler: he unmasks Harry. Which, by the way, takes way too long.]] However, [[spoiler: Harry fails to see through a decoy Dumbledore uses the one time he is a threat. Finally, Voldemort fails to see through the bluffs of [[SparedByTheAdaptation James.]]]]

* InfoDump: At any given time the plot may be halted for several chapters to deliver (largely unnecessary) information about some person, place, or thing.

* InsuranceFraud: Harry takes out some (implicitly very expensive) life insurance policies on the Dursleys, then uses a combination of fake documents and the Confundus Charm to make the insurance company believe they've had them for years. After that, he fakes their deaths so that he can collect on the policies.

* KarmicRape: [[spoiler: Luna honestly believes this can apply to children.]]

* LovePotion: Used by Luna as part of a cocktail of potions which turn [[spoiler:a hundred witches into Harry’s immortal dryad sex slaves who are [[SingleTargetSexuality only hot for him thanks to the fact his hair is dropped into one of the ingredients: Bride’s Delight]]]]. This is combined with the Unctuous Unction which makes them all believe that Harry is the source of all goodness, light, and truth, so that even if there were a technical way out they wouldn’t ever take it.

* MajorInjuryUnderreaction: Dumbledore accidentally blows his own arm off while resurrecting Snape in Chapter 10. He barely seems to react. Granted, it's established that he knows how to grow another not long after, but one would think the pain would still be a problem.

** In order to repopulate the fairies, our “heroes” plan to [[spoiler:kidnap women and force-feed them a potion that turns them into dryads eternally loyal to Harry, and another potion that will cause the women to give birth to twins every ten months for a decade]]. The only silver lining is that ItOnlyWorksOnce; however, [[spoiler:Draco Malfoy]] also tries to acquire the latter after being forcibly turned into a girl and married off with a breeding contract, not because he ''wants'' it, but just to get the obligation over with as fast as possible. [[spoiler:Harry ensures this doesn’t happen, apparently just to be a dick.]] A weaker version of this potion exists that forces a single twin pregnancy, even if the drinker is already pregnant.

* MenActWomenAre: All Harry’s wives care about making his actions better rather than taking their own. Apparently the hero saving a damsel so she has to marry him is mostly out of vogue, but only because too many guys died that way.

* MoralDissonance: Harry’s actions include [[spoiler:MindRape and enslavement]]. Despite this, he is portrayed as the unquestionable good guy. Though he does throw up in disgust and have to be comforted by Luna after [[spoiler:he has a particularly thorough torture session with the Dursleys]], he makes no attempt to lessen their suffering or even tone down his actions, suggesting [[IgnoredEpiphany he learns nothing]].
* MoralMyopia: Draco and the Dursleys are condemned to horrific, torturous futures for crimes largely invented on the part of the author and whose only canonical misdeeds would include being jerks. Dumbledore gets it even worse, being ruthlessly villainized for keeping Snape on his job and believing, with good reason, that Harry must sacrifice himself to stop Voldemort for good. Bellatrix, however, has her actions excused with the reasoning that she did them to sate a misguided love to Voldemort she hoped would be returned.

* MsFanservice: Every woman in the main cast. If they don’t start out pretty then they get there quickly, and if they do start out pretty, they become sex goddesses. Moreover, every girl on Harry’s side wants nothing more than to service him sexually, even if not always before [[spoiler:mind rape]].

* NauseaFuel: [[spoiler:Snape’s head exploding]] and the aftermath. In-universe, it makes Madame Pomfrey throw up; considering she’s the school nurse, and has inevitably seen some gruesome and disgusting stuff, it really says something about how revolting it is.

** Luna (who is actually the most active female) explains it to Hermione thus:

* NoSenseOfHumor: A consequence of making a Horcrux is the inability to appreciate art or humor, so Dumbledore is unable to judge the quality of an innocent joke, or tell the difference between that and [[{{Squick}} a story of a man being brutally raped and murdered]]. Yet the narration says that he would actually think the latter is funny, meaning that he ''does'' have the ability to judge aesthetics, just [[BadIsGoodAndGoodIsBad the wrong way]].
* NoSuchThingAsWizardJesus: After explaining that the pagan gods [[GodGuise were just wizards on a power trip]], the narrative goes out of its way to mention wizards being disturbed by stories of Jesus’ miracles, which they are unable to replicate, implying that He is really God and Christianity is the one true religion. [[WriterOnBoard The part about Jesus is never brought up again]], though the Greek pantheon actually being wizards ''does'' turn out to be relevant to Dumbledore's scheme towards the end.

* ObfuscatingInsanity: According to this story, Luna pretends to be a dotty eccentric so people will underestimate her. However, even after that reveal, Luna continues to spout seemingly nonsensical comments, hinting that either her eccentricity is a little more genuine than she claimed/thought, or Ornstead forgot what he wrote.
* OnlySaneMan: ''Luna'' is apparently this compared to the rest of her family, particularly Grandmother [[Literature/AlicesAdventuresInWonderland Alice]] who at this point operates more under Wonderland logic than Earth logic. This is kind of awkward, too, because from an objective standpoint Luna is by far the most merciless and vicious character in the entire story, more so than any of the {{Designated Villain}}s or [[SociopathicHero Harry]] himself. Her first important act after tagging along with Harry is [[spoiler:committing the premeditated murder of her uncle in cold blood]] without any remorse or second thoughts, [[MagnificentBastard all while]] [[spoiler:making it look like a suicide]]. [[TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior She is twelve years old]], and has ''not'' absorbed a soul fragment from a mass murderer. The one time Harry thinks that he has gone too far and begins to feel a little remorse, Luna talks him out of it and [[CorruptionByAMinor convinces him he did nothing wrong]] in defiance of all common sense.
* PantyThief: This is Potter family tradition, and apparently how the men in the line propose marriage. Already that sounds incredible that the women they court are never disgusted by this, but the final chapter before the story was abandoned reveals that the requirement is not to steal knickers from a girl's panty drawer, but instead [[{{Squick}} to take them while she is wearing them]].
* PayEvilUntoEvil: The story's central tenet. Absolutely any cruelty is permitted as long as the victim harmed Harry or his friends first.

* PoliticallyIncorrectHero: Harry believes women should be brainwashed to give him kids, all Goblins are evil, and the best way to solve racism is to turn everyone white. His minion Alice nukes the Muslims to his approval. In spite of being a Nazi in all but name, Harry is supposed to be the hero.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: However, this is how Harry comes off in practice. His enemies are barely better, both Voldemort and Dumbledore enforce prejudice against Muggles.

* PowerPerversionPotential: In Chapter 98, [[spoiler:[=McGonagall=] gives Harry a magic lamp that allows him and his harem to enter a palace on the inside, where he can spend up to twelve hours satisfying his wives (and sex slaves) individually (with a copy of him created for each one). Susan also points out that she and Harry's other wives (along with Harry himself) are enhanced with Nemean Lion abilities, which (allegedly) would enable him to copulate up to forty times in one day. So, in short, a spell to make a lamp BiggerOnTheInside, SelfDuplication, and {{Animorphism}} are all put towards slaking Harry's lust.]] Bear in mind that Harry is ''[[{{Squick}} thirteen]]'', and his wives between ''fourteen and twelve''.

** Certainly Harry does fewer horrible things than Dumbledore’s ridiculous list of villainy, albeit only because he hasn't been around as long and Dumbledore’s crimes are so over-the-top as to seem like parody. That doesn’t mean that the moral course of action is to [[spoiler:use torture on helpless people for the sole purpose of revenge]] just because one uses it on fewer people than the other side. Except the story treats it as fine and Harry even learns a moral lesson from it. This does not mean he ''stops'' the torture at any point despite the fic making a big deal of him arranging it so he can kill the victims at any point with little more than a thought. Nor does it justify the (wholly unrelated) [[spoiler:mind rape]]. Or the [[spoiler:effective slavery]]. Or the [[spoiler:magical creation of a child who will know nothing but suffering]]. Or the [[spoiler:initiation of the end of human civilization]].

* PyrrhicVictory: In Chapter 79, Harry [[spoiler: manages to kill Dumbledore once more, but gets a lot of damage in the process. In fact, the actual battle is lost, Harry only succeeds during his escape later, having been unmasked and with his forces weakened. He considers it an utter defeat.]]

* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Lucius Malfoy is said to be Luna's uncle (with Pandora Lovegood, Luna's late mother, apparently being his sister), which supposedly justifies [[spoiler:Luna inheriting Lucius's status as head of the Malfoy family instead of Draco, Lucius's son, after she murders him]]. In canon, while all of the pureblood families are interrelated to a degree, there is no evidence that Luna is '''that''' closely related to the Malfoys (and while she's not a Muggle-born and both her parents are magical, it's not stated whether she's a pure- or a half-blood).

** [[spoiler: The point of the time travel is to do this to Harry's backstory. As a reward for [[MoralEventHorizon making women sex slaves.]]]]

* SameFaceDifferentName: Ornstead did not reveal his identity as Perfect Lionheart until several years after he began the story. At that time, he explained that his motive for publishing under the Lionheart name was to prove that the alleged cabal of haters who he believes lives to denigrate his work would not find fault with ''Partially Kissed Hero'' because the Skysaber name wasn’t on it. Naturally, Perfect Lionheart’s identity was debated strongly on many message boards before this announcement, with the two main camps settling on “Oh, yeah, it’s Skysaber” and “Nah, it’s a Skysaber tribute band.”

** Hermione’s parents are fans of ''Franchise/StarTrek''. Later, [[spoiler:Dryad Trelawney]] makes the Vulcan symbol and pretends to be a Vulcan. The Muggles buy it.

** The narration references ''TabletopGame/{{Paranoia}}'' at one point by comparing the surveillance systems at Hogwarts to those of Alpha Complex... while taking the perspective of Dumbledore, who's noted to have never even heard of the game. You figure that one out.
** There is also a mention of ''Franchise/StarWars'' when Dumbledore finally fights back and it's explained that the Empire strikes back.

* {{Snowlems}}: Harry and his team create body doubles of themselves out of Transfigured snow, which have no self-awareness or intelligence other than their programming, in order to deceive their enemies and to [[TrickedOutTime Trick Out Time]].

* SpaceJews: Rowling has been accused of leaning into anti-Semitic stereotypes in the way she portrays Potterverse goblins, but Lionheart takes this to the Nth degree by having them constantly cheat people out of money and enjoy devouring human children (which is disturbingly reminiscent of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_libel blood libel]]).
* SpeciesLoyalty: Wizards have apparently made it illegal to use contraception charms. The Trio is planning to have a lot of children to help repopulate [[spoiler:the fairies]]. Keep in mind that [[{{Squick}} they’re young teenagers]].

** Ironically, the story would use androids with guns (and [[DeusExNukina nukes]]) later.
** At one point the narration exposits on how there are a number of “Boy-Who-Lived” books in-universe, which are clearly a dig at PossessionSue ''Harry Potter'' fanfiction. The irony appears to be lost on the author. It has also been suggested that the same sequence incorporates shots at the ''actual Literature/HarryPotter'' books, because some of the complaints are similar to those in the author’s notes. The irony of '''that''' is something well beyond merely lost on the author.

* TheStraightAndArrowPath: Enforced to make the story more of a HighFantasy.

* VirginPower: It comes up that virginity is highly prized among witches because of various rites.

* WeHaveReserves: Harry uses this rationalization when [[spoiler:he recruits the Death Eaters.]] Yes, [[DesignatedHero we are still supposed to like him]].

** Dumbledore is supposedly extremely powerful, but is reduced to a ButtMonkey often. One of his few moments of shown competence is him humiliating Voldemort into submission while [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome explaining how he manipulated him and set up his rise to power.]] Of course, the author had to ruin it by [[ShowDontTell telling the audience the purpose is indeed The Worf Effect.]]

* MajorInjuryUnderreaction: Dumbledore accidentally blows his own arm off while resurrecting Snape in Chapter 10. He barely seems to react.

* ObfuscatingInsanity: According to this story, Luna pretends to be a dotty eccentric so people will underestimate her. However, even after that reveal, Luna continues to spout seemingly nonsensical comments, hinting that either her eccentricity is a little more genuine than she thought, or Ornstead forgot what he wrote.

** Due to the constant (ab)use of TimeTravel, it's pretty much impossible to keep track of when ''anything'' after the first encounter with the fairies takes place in relation to pretty much anything else. Not helped by Ornstead's constant {{Retcon}}s involving time travel being used to set up whatever he just came up with.

* CrackFic: At times can match ''Fanfic/{{HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH}}'' in sheer weirdness. One example would be the incident in which Harry is inadvertently transformed into a flower garden, which allows Luna to excise his remaining personality flaws (or rather, the ones that [[IgnorantOfTheirOwnIgnorance the author notices]]) by going weeding.

** Dumbledore is crushed, mutilated, fooled into believing [[UsefulNotes/KentuckyFriedChicken Colonel Sanders]] is the Dark Lord, dipped in Malaclaw venom too many times to count, has his testicles placed into Bludgers and kept alive to feel the pain, and eventually [[spoiler:unwittingly sabotages his plans by himself, without Harry's involvement or even knowledge]].
** Snape is put under the Imperius Curse and subsequently [[spoiler:boils his head in acid, rips Draco Malfoy apart, and is trapped in a cycle of despair which causes him to tear out his own brain]]. Then [[spoiler:he gets castrated, and EatenAlive by Buckbeak]]. [[UnexplainedRecovery (He survives this.)]]
** Draco is [[spoiler:turned into a woman and forced to bear children to Crabbe and Goyle. And then their fathers]].

* DirtyCommunists: The author believes this trope to be TruthInTelevision to an extent that even Whittaker Chambers likely would have considered extreme, and as such makes the entire Soviet population, including the civilians, AlwaysChaoticEvil. They ban a technology that would ([[ArtisticLicensePhysics according to the author]]) permit cheap and easy space colonization purely out of spite that they lost the Space Race. A nameless Russian wizard (implied to be Dolohov) assassinates Prince Charles at his wedding for no reason. But naturally, it is taken way too far. It’s one thing to oppose the form of government of the Eastern Bloc; it’s another thing entirely to justify [[spoiler:nuking the Soviet Union's capital and killing every member of their government, condemning the survivors to decades of anarchy]]. Naturally, he also believes the Western Bloc [[BlackAndWhiteInsanity to have been perfectly innocent of any foul play]], to the point where he says that the best thing that could ever happen to the people of any Third World state is for their country to be invaded by the United States.

* DroppedABridgeOnHim: [[spoiler:Crabbe and Goyle]] are casually killed off when a magically enlarged bundimun breaks into their common room. They had only made a single, minor appearance beforehand, scores of chapters earlier.

* GroinAttack: [[DoubleSubversion Doubly subverted]]: Trelawney thinks of castrating [[spoiler:Snape with a waffle iron when he is three, but doesn't go through with it because she realizes that would be wrong]]. However, after encountering him again when [[spoiler:he's eight, she actually does it]]. [[MoralMyopia We are supposed to root for her.]]

** UsefulNotes/NapoleonBonaparte is said to have deliberately used tall soldiers as CannonFodder due to [[HeightAngst due to insecurity at his small stature]]. Not only was Napoleon probably not as short as he's often thought to be in the UK and US, there's also absolutely no credible evidence that he ever did anything like this.

* InformedAbility: Dumbledore, who is supposed to be a greater threat to Harry than Voldemort and the most powerful, dangerous and informed wizard on the planet, is fooled into believing that a “Colonel Sanders” and other Muggle advertisement icons are actually Dark wizards working to undermine his power. He is stated to be incredibly intelligent, but even when not under the influence of Malaclaw venom acts like a moron. Only once does he display that informed competence.

** After Trelawney meddles in the past, Harry’s maternal grandparents have four more children, giving them six in all. All of them are magical except for [[ButtMonkey Petunia]].

* PoliticallyIncorrectHero: Harry believes women should be brainwashed to give him kids, all Goblins are evil, and everyone should turn white. His minion Alice nukes the Muslims. In spite of being a Nazi in all but name, Harry is supposed to be the hero.

*** Luna is supposed to pretend she is insane. In practice, she sees no difference between things and people.

* ItsAllAboutMe: All of Dumbledore’s acts are motivated by a belief in his own perfection and superiority to other people. All of [[ProtagonistCenteredMorality Harry]]’s acts [[NotSoDifferent are also motivated by a belief in his own perfection]] and moral superiority, though there is [[ALighterShadeOfBlack one singular point]] where he recognizes that he has crossed the line.

* PoliticallyIncorrectHero: Harry believes women should be brainwashed to give him kids, all Goblins are evil, and everyone should turn white. His minion Alice nukes the Mulsims. In spite of being a Nazi in all but name, Harry is supposed to be the hero.

* DidNotDoTheBloodyResearch: Harry gets a crup and names him Spaz, Lionheart apparently being unaware that in the UK, the word "spaz" is considered extremely offensive to the point of being an ableist slur.

** The fairies of this fic are considerably more powerful than the pretty but mostly unintelligent fairies in canon. Granted, they're largely ripped from [[Literature/{{Fablehaven}} another series]].

* MassiveMultiplayerCrossover: Downplayed, as it's mostly in Luna's backstory, but her family apparently has ties to (among other stories) ''Literature/TheWonderfulWizardOfOz'', ''Literature/AlicesAdventuresInWonderland'', ''Theatre/PeterPan'', ''Film/ChittyChittyBangBang'', and ''Literature/TheHundredAndOneDalmatians''. And on top of '''that''', a throwaway line in Chapter 54 shows that '''''ComicBook/{{Batman}}''''' apparently exists in this universe.

The story is set at the very beginning of ''Literature/HarryPotterAndThePrisonerOfAzkaban'', and immediately [[AlternateUniverse deviates from the storyline]] when Harry is partially kissed by the Dementor aboard the Hogwarts Express, prompting his soul to absorb the Horcrux Voldemort created inside him. Oh, and Dumbledore [[RonTheDeathEater is evil]].

** Moody in canon is an icon for old, tough, incredibly powerful Aurors, but he certainly wasn't infallible and it was implied that age was catching up with him. In this fic, he's a [[AdaptationalVillainy ruthless assassin for Dumbledore]], but also an even abler fighter than before--not only is he said to be a wizard of Dumbledore and Voldemort's caliber, he duels Bellatrix and actually succeeds in dealing her fatal damage, despite being forced to retreat by a basilisk.
** [[Literature/AlicesAdventuresInWonderland Alice]] now has the power to [[WorldOfChaos warp reality as she sees fit]] wherever she wants. Though Wonderland doesn’t follow logic, this only applies within its boundaries, not outside them.
* AdaptationalDumbass: Pretty much everyone, else Harry and company wouldn't be able to run rings around them--in fact, Harry outright calls most of the wizarding world morons in his internal narration more than once. However, poor Minerva [=McGonagall=] deserves special mention here. She appears to be one of the few characters Lionheart ''likes'' but could not justifiably pry out from under her canon UndyingLoyalty to Dumbledore. As such, she is hoodwinked and fooled by Harry's schemes and pranks an innumerable number of times, and ultimately [[spoiler:brainwashed and turned into one of Harry’s dryad slaves]].
* AdaptationalJobChange: Or past job change, in this case. This fic claims that Voldemort worked in the Department of Mysteries as an Unspeakable at some point, which was never even implied in canon.

** Canonically, Horcruxes protect against death from any means, including old age, albeit reducing one to a wraith were one to be mortally injured. In this fic, they ''only'' protect against unnatural death, and will deactivate when the body dies of old age. This leads to the bizarre conclusion that Dumbledore actually benefits from being repeatedly killed, since it slows down his aging. But since Horcruxes don’t actually induce immortality, why would anyone bother?
*** However, they are also stronger because they can bring someone back to life even when that someone's body lost their soul to a Dementor.
** Voldemort in canon is the BigBad. [[spoiler: Here he is easily defeated by a villain less competent than his canon self.]]
** This fanfiction has probably the weakest vampires in any media. They can die by any type of light or water, among other things. Even amputation of their legs by common axes can stop them with ease, and they are cannon fodder in general.
** Snape in canon could get away with lying to Voldemort's face for years, beat Harry in a fight, and was overall pretty competent. Here, his only role is to be brutally tortured by Harry, who can also dig through his mind without any difficulty. While Dumbledore has similar treatment, Snape doesn't even get the few moments of competence and informed abilities of the Headmaster.
* ALadyOnEachArm: Harry and his wives.

* AlternateUniverse: It starts with an evil Dumbledore and far more abusive Dursleys in the BackStory, and many other characters are drastically different from their canonical selves based on whether they side with Harry or [[ProtagonistCenteredMorality do not]]. However, much later on in the story, time travel is used to create an alternate universe within the story, rewriting the past so as to give Harry a happy childhood, interspersed with time at the Dursleys, with the memories of each being suppressed while he experiences the other so as to appear to preserve the timeline.
* AlwaysChaoticEvil: Unlike in canon, goblins are depicted as being universally inherently cruel and malicious.

** Hermione is said to [[BirthdayHater dislike her birthday]] because it falls on Talk Like a Pirate Day. But that holiday wouldn't exist until two years after the story is set. Then they [[OneShotRevisionism change the past]] [[AuthorsSavingThrow so that it existed since the 1970s]].

** Hermione describes herself as "nearly done" with puberty in her inner monologue at one point. She's thirteen years old at the time. Puberty in girls generally doesn't end until at least the age of sixteen, and since Hermione is a) very intelligent, and b) the daughter of two dentists, she should know that.
** [[spoiler:Snape]] being castrated as a young boy in an alternate timeline is said to have resulted in him becoming fatter than he did originally. While eunuchs are widely stereotyped as fat[[note]]There ''is'' some truth to this idea, but it was generally due to the eunuchs in question having lifestyles that would let them put on weight[[/note]], being castrated before puberty usually results in a human male becoming thin and androgynous.

** This seems to be a theme for Perfect Lionheart. His earlier fic ''FanFic/ChuninExamDay'' has essentially the exact same things used for wooing women, just replace “really shiny things” with “really great massages, hand-made clothes, and really good food”.
* AuthorFilibuster: Every chapter has at least one of these. Some chapters are nothing ''but'' these. This is a trademark of Skysaber/Lionheart’s writing.
* BigBad: Dumbledore. Though he is too ineffective for this role in practice, he is definitely intended to be this.
* BigBadWannabe: Voldemort. He is resurrected by [[RonTheDeathEater Dumbledore]] to be used as a scapegoat. He fights [[ButtMonkey Dumbledore]] but loses badly, is forced to submit, and when he wins, he can't keep what he conquered and his followers start turning on him.

* BigGood: The Fairy Queen is supposed to be this. [[spoiler: However, she [[DesignatedHero rewards Harry for turning women into breeder machines, by giving him a happy childhood.]]]]
* BigNo: Trelawney does this when Harry’s grandparents are about to meet with [=McGonagall=] and ask if the accusations against Dumbledore are true, such that she tackles her and knocks her down. It’s exactly as {{Narm}}ful as it sounds.

** Dumbledore is crushed, mutilated, fooled into believing [[UsefulNotes/KentuckyFriedChicken Colonel Sanders]] is the Dark Lord, dipped in Malaclaw venom too many times to count, and has his testicles placed into Bludgers and kept alive to feel the pain.
** Snape is put under the Imperius Curse and subsequently [[spoiler:boils his head in acid, rips Draco Malfoy apart, and is trapped in a cycle of despair which causes him to tear out his own brain]].

** Later, even the Muggles start to fall into this trap. When [[spoiler:Trelawney shows up on Mars]] and says “Live long and prosper” while giving the Vulcan salute as a joke, scientists all over the world assume ''Franchise/StarTrek'' is real and consult Trekkies in the hopes that they will know enough of the Vulcan language to translate, instead of coming to the much more sensible conclusion that AliensStealCable.

** Dumbledore's endgame is... confusing, to say the least. In one chapter, his plan is to have Harry die fighting Voldemort, so he can inherit Lily's protection; in another, he was counting on the Dursleys killing Harry before the latter can die fighting Voldemort. It all makes about as much sense as everything else in the fic.
** Due to the constant (ab)use of TimeTravel, it's pretty much impossible to keep track of when ''anything'' after the first encounter with the fairies takes place in relation to pretty much anything else. Not helped by Lionheart's constant {{Retcon}}s involving time travel being used to set up whatever he just came up with.

* TheCorruption: Fairy magic causes the environs to turn into a WorldOfChaos by its very presence. When Hermione returns to her hometown in order to see her parents, everything around her turns into [[RealityIsOutToLunch a place where the laws of physics and logic are repealed]] without her ever intending to, and indeed, against her will. Surprisingly, the Muggle bystanders (including kindergarteners and the police) [[AngstWhatAngst take this all in stride]], with the kids even being amazed and thinking Hermione is really pretty and that [[EldritchAbomination the creatures]] which the playground equipment turned into are cute. Before this, the Trio’s presence in the Forbidden Forest turned the Weasleys’ Ford Anglia into a [[Anime/MyNeighborTotoro Catbus]] rip-off, but this takes a much longer time for reasons which are not explained.

* CrackFic: At times can match ''Fanfic/ThirtyHs'' in sheer weirdness. One example would be the incident in which Harry is inadvertently transformed into a flower garden, which allows Luna to excise his remaining personality flaws (or rather, the ones that [[IgnorantOfTheirOwnIgnorance the author notices]]) by going weeding.
* CurbStompBattle: All battles in the story, except the duel between Moody and Bellatrix and the fight against the acromantulas.
* DastardlyWhiplash: As a side effect of his repeated resurrections and of losing the ability to adjust his physical age to a nonthreatening grandfatherly look, Dumbledore starts reverting to his appearance (and wardrobe and behavior!) from his physical prime—which is that of the classic mustache-twirling, tophatted villain.

* DidNotDoTheBloodyResearch: Harry gets a crup and names him "Spaz", Lionheart apparently being unaware that in the UK, "spaz" is considered extremely offensive to the point of being an ableist slur.
* DirtyCommunists: The author believes this trope to be TruthInTelevision to an extent that even Whittaker Chambers likely would consider extreme, and as such makes the entire Soviet population, including the civilians, AlwaysChaoticEvil. They ban a technology that would ([[ArtisticLicensePhysics according to the author]]) permit cheap and easy space colonization purely out of spite that they lost the space race. A nameless Russian wizard (implied to be Dolohov) assassinates Prince Charles at his wedding for no reason. But naturally, he takes it way too far. It’s one thing to oppose the Eastern Bloc; it’s another thing entirely to justify [[spoiler:nuking their capital and killing every member of their government, condemning the survivors to decades of anarchy]], because you don’t approve of their government. Naturally, he also believes the Western bloc [[BlackAndWhiteInsanity to have been perfectly innocent of any foul play]], to the point where he says that the best thing that could ever happen to the people of any Third World state is for their country to be invaded by the United States.

* DueToTheDead: ''Horrifically'' averted. [[spoiler:Harry casually walks into Voldemort's flooded cave and, after taking the fake locket stored there, casually sets all of the Inferi to work on his farmland. Instead of, you know, destroying them. Keep in mind that these were all but explicitly stated to be Voldemort's cache of murder victims.]]
* EldritchLocation: The River Styx, which fully envelops [[{{Mordor}} the castle of Hades]] in all three dimensions, making it impossible to approach [[WrongContextMagic even by magical means]] except for Charon's ferry and the spell cast by the Peverell brothers. Anyone who touches the water is stricken with total amnesia, and it has the properties of all the other Underworld rivers as well, being pain, lamentation, sorrow, and fire. The last wizard to come there seeking its power got turned into a dementor and [[DoingInTheScientist caused the Black Death]].
* EunuchsAreEvil: This story claims that Voldemort sacrificed his sex organs in a dark ritual to make him ageless.

* EvilIsNotAToy: Subverted a lot of times. No matter what dangerous magic Harry uses to gain power, it never backfires on him. This extends to his allies, and sometimes even his enemies. [[spoiler: Vampirism is the sole exception, however it's still subverted for Voldemort using vampires in his army.]]

* EvilOnlyHasToWinOnce: Lionheart used this as his excuse for having the "heroes" constantly beating the supposedly stronger Dumbledore.
* EvilVersusEvil: A not uncommon [[AlternateCharacterInterpretation interpretation]] of the central conflict between Dumbledore and Harry. Voldemort and his crew, for what it’s worth, oppose both sides at different stages in the story, although they’re rather sidelined throughout, as Voldemort is not revived until Chapter 77.

* FailedASpotCheck: Harry buys Godric’s Hollow and tears all the buildings down so as to build his fortress, but somehow missed ''Dumbledore’s house''. [[spoiler:What’s more, Dumbledore rigged it so that one of his respawn points is in the basement. So much for the security.]]

* ForWantOfANail: Like many fics, this attempts such a scenario, where the nail is that Harry is exposed to corrupting magic early on. However, it ultimately averts this trope as a myriad of other factors are changed that are irrelevant to Harry's interaction. It also attempts to justify the nail so hard that Harry has already gone a personality overhaul, power upgrade, and friendship reassessment before the nail even happens.
* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: In Chapter 71, Trelawney's InnerMonologue says (and the author's note agrees) that Snape's less-than-stellar background doesn't give him license to bully his students.

* GroinAttack: Double subverted. Trelawney thinks of castrating Snape with a waffle iron when he is three, but stops because she realizes it is wrong. However, after encoutering him again when he's eight, then she goes through with it. We are supposed to root for her.
* HateFic: Aspects of the fic can stray into this—it’s obvious that the author has some grievances with the canon, as he puts it in the note to the first chapter:

** In Das_Sporking, the fic [[LaserGuidedKarma gets a lot of these]] for its morality.

* HistoricalHeroUpgrade: [[InUniverse According to Luna]], Literature/{{Rapunzel}}, Literature/SnowWhite, and Literature/{{Cinderella}}'s princes [[DecompositeCharacter were all the same person]], who was [[VillainWithGoodPublicity a malicious and greedy rake with good PR]].

** Rasputin is said to have [[BeethovenWasAnAlienSpy actually]] been a dark wizard widely feared by the Russian magical community.
** UsefulNotes/NapoleonBonaparte is said to have deliberately used tall soldiers as CannonFodder due to [[HeightAngst due to insecurity at his small stature]]. Not only was Napoleon probably not as short as he's often thought to be in the Anglosphere [[note]]most reliable estimates of his height put him at about 5'7'', which was around average height for the era[[/note]], there's also absolutely no credible evidence that he ever did anything like this.

* HollywoodAcid: [[spoiler:Snape ends up getting bewitched into putting his head into a bucket full of it at one point]].

* HowUnscientific: Chapters 71 through 76. Trelawney pushes for [[spoiler:the space programs of Earth to colonize the Moon, Mars, and other worlds in the solar system]] with dryad trees to make them effectively invulnerable (because as as long as their trees are safe, they can’t die) with [[spoiler:Orion-type nuclear pulse propulsion ships that can get out to Pluto and back within a year]].

* IgnorantOfTheirOwnIgnorance: Hermione believes that the feminine form of the name Draco is “Draca”, with the narration even saying “she knew her Latin.” Therefore, Lionheart himself thinks this is accurate. In reality, ''Draco'' is a loanword from Greek of the third declension (for irregular nouns). The feminine would thus be “Dracaena”.
* IJustWantToBeBeautiful: The motivation of any and all female characters, except maybe [[MadLove Bellatrix]].
* InfoDump: At any given time the plot may be halted for several chapters to deliver (largely unnecessary) information about some place, object, or person.

* InsuranceFraud: Harry takes out some (implicitly very expensive) life insurance policies on the Dursleys, then uses a combination of fake documents and the Confundus charm to make the insurance company believe they've had them for years. After that, he fakes their deaths so that he can collect on the policies.

* JustBetweenYouAndMe: There is one scene of this in chapter 79, wherein Dumbledore[[spoiler:’s simulacrum captures Harry and his wives]] in his office and gloats a bit as he waits for Snape or Filch to arrive to help with the interrogation and torture, pausing only to open a piece of [[spoiler:Harry]]’s mail... [[OutGambitted which blows up in his face]]. [[LiteralMetaphor Literally]].

* KickTheDog: While in the past, Trelawney arranges for Petunia to give birth to a second son, whom she and the other dryads [[spoiler:experiment on, and permanently Transfigure into Harry’s likeness, then change the Dursleys’ memories to make them think their child never existed and believe him to be Harry, whom they then abuse to a far greater extent than Harry suffered in the books]]. Though everyone involved had crossed the MoralEventHorizon long before, if any reader still believed Harry to be the hero at this point, the sheer gratuity of this act would shatter this notion. It isn’t even necessary for their plan, since they had previously used simulacra made of [[{{Snowlems}} enchanted snow]] to stand in for people, ''including Harry''.

* LuddWasRight: Queen Alice starts pushing hard for a complete regression into agrarian society (and ''feudalism'') when [[spoiler:she sets off a nuclear war]], acting as if nothing made after the Middle Ages was worth saving. Before that, there's a lot of talk about how the longbow is superior to guns.
* MadonnaWhoreComplex: When [[spoiler:Narcissa]] is forced to join Harry’s group, she is apparently still a virgin. This is actually brought up as a plus, [[SarcasmMode because it wasn’t good enough for a fighting, competent, impressive and desperate witch to join their cause, as virginity is more important than anything else]].

** Furthermore, Lily starts having kids immediately after graduation, so that Harry (who was born when she was 20) has two older sisters, and after [[spoiler:she and James are saved]], she has even more kids. By the present day of the story, she has seven kids including Harry, and tells her husband that if he wants sons, he had better impregnate her before then because after then, she will take the dryad potion and only be able to conceive daughters, meaning she is not done yet. It is implied that having babies and being Harry’s mother are [[BabyFactory her only desires in life]].
** This also causes Sirius to marry Amelia Bones and Remus to marry an unimportant woman, with Sirius’s wife bearing five children, and Remus’s wife having more kids than both other families combined, meaning at least thirteen. (Even though only twelve years have passed since the failed attack on the Potters.)
** {{Exaggerated}} when [[spoiler:Voldemort takes over the Ministry]], as he passes through a law requiring ''every witch of childbearing age'' to have as many children as possible, and, amazingly enough, despite this requiring [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil mass rape]] and despite [[spoiler:Voldemort]] ordering it, ''everyone does it willingly''.
* MenAreStrongWomenArePretty: All women in the story want beauty, cosmetic products, better complexions, ''etc.'' These all motivate them to a huge extent, whether Hermione or Bellatrix. Men prefer dung bomb recipes.

* MonstrousCannibalism: In this fic, goblins have no problem eating their own dead.
* MoralDissonance: Harry’s actions include [[spoiler:MindRape and enslavement]]. Despite this, he is portrayed as the unquestioned good guy. Though he does throw up in disgust and have to be comforted by Luna after [[spoiler:he had a particularly thorough torture session with the Dursleys]], he makes no attempt to lessen their suffering or even tone down his actions, suggesting [[IgnoredEpiphany he learns nothing]].
* MoralMyopia: Draco, and the Dursleys are condemned to horrific, torturous futures for crimes largely invented on the part of the author and whose only canonical misdeeds would include being jerks. Dumbledore gets it even worse, being ruthlessly villainized for keeping Snape on his job and seeing Harry sacrificing himself to stop Voldemort as a necessity. Bellatrix, however, has her actions excused with the reasoning that she did them to sate a misguided love to Voldemort she hoped would be returned.
* MoreThanMindControl: Arguably for Hermione, who is (figuratively) charmed by Harry, who now has Voldemort's memories and power, and then convinced that Dumbledore is a Dark Lord and becomes completely devoted to Harry and [[EnfantTerrible Luna]] for the inevitable long, long, ''long'' streams of exposition that they tell her.

* {{MST}}: Done by members of [[http://z14.invisionfree.com/The_Fanfiction_Forum/index.php?showtopic=18521&st=0 The Fanfiction Forum.]] Viewing requires registration.
** Masterghandalf of Blog/DasSporking has done [[https://das-sporking2.dreamwidth.org/tag/fic:+partially+kissed+hero a public spork]] on that site, which has all 103 chapters sporked.
* NauseaFuel: [[spoiler:Snape’s head exploding]] and the aftermath. In-universe, it makes Madame Pomfrey throw up; considering she’s the school nurse, and has inevitably seen some gruesome and disgusting stuff, it really says something about how revolting it was.
* NegateYourOwnSacrifice: The Cauldron of Blood can be purified, but it requires somebody to knowingly and willingly sacrifice themself by jumping into it, resulting in their immediate death. Trelawney does so, but [[spoiler:because she has become a dryad]] she cannot die permanently unless [[spoiler:her tree is destroyed]].
* NeverASelfMadeWoman: Every major woman in the story, with the debatable exception of Hermione, is special because of... [[SatelliteLoveInterest her relationship to Harry]].

* NGOSuperpower: It’s said outright that Harry outranks Alice, Queen of Wonderland, who herself is so much more powerful than the United Kingdom that they can do nothing to stop her.
* NoSenseOfHumor: A consequence of making a Horcrux is the inability to appreciate art or humor, so Dumbledore would be unable to judge the aesthetic quality of an innocent joke, or [[{{Squick}} a story of a man being brutally raped and murdered]]. Strangely, he would actually think the latter is funny, meaning that he ''does'' have the ability to judge aesthetics, just [[BadIsGoodAndGoodIsBad the wrong way]].
* NoSuchThingAsWizardJesus: After explaining that the pagan gods [[GodGuise were just wizards on a power trip]], the narrative goes out of its way to mention wizards being disturbed by stories of Jesus’s miracles, which they are unable to replicate, implying that He is really God and Christianity is the one true religion. [[WriterOnBoard The part about Jesus is never brought up again]], though the Greek pantheon actually being wizards ''does'' turn out to be relevant to Dumbledore's scheme towards the end.

* ObfuscatingInsanity: According to this story, Luna pretends to be a dotty eccentric so people will underestimate her. However, even after that, Luna continues to spout seemingly nonsensical comments, hinting that either her eccentricity is a little more genuine than she thought, or that Lionheart forgot what he wrote.

* PantyThief: This is Potter family tradition, and apparently how the men in the line propose marriage. Already that sounds incredible that the women they court are never disgusted by this, but the final chapter before the fic was abandoned reveals that the requirement is not to steal knickers from a girl's panty drawer, but instead [[{{Squick}} to take them while she is wearing them]].

* PlotArmor: Quite a baffling example; The fic spends 70-odd chapters buffing up its protagonists with every defense imaginable, going above and beyond what would be reasonable, and then sharing those buffs among its entire heroic cast, in preparation for a final confrontation with Dumbledore the author does not ever actually write.
* {{Polyamory}}: Harry has four wives, in addition to the aforementioned [[spoiler:sex slaves]].
* PowerPerversionPotential: In Chapter 98, [[spoiler:[=McGonagall=] gives Harry a magic lamp that allows him and his harem to enter a palace on the inside, where he can spend up to 12 hours satisfying his wives (and sex slaves) individually (with a copy of him created for each one). Susan also points out that she and Harry's other wives (along with Harry himself) are enhanced with Nemean Lion abilities, which (allegedly) would enable him to copulate up to forty times in one day. So, in short, a spell to make a lamp BiggerOnTheInside, SelfDuplication, and {{Animorphism}} are all put towards slaking Harry's lust.]] Bear in mind that Harry is ''[[{{Squick}} thirteen]]'', and his wives between ''fourteen and twelve''.

** Certainly Harry does fewer horrible things than Dumbledore’s ridiculous list of villainy, albeit only because he hasn't been around as long and Dumbledore’s crimes are so over-the-top as to seem like parody. That doesn’t mean that the moral course of action is to [[spoiler:use torture on helpless people for the sole purpose of revenge]] just because one uses it on fewer people than the other side. Except the story treats it as fine and he even learns a moral lesson from it. This does not mean he ''stops'' the torture at any point despite the fic making a big deal of him arranging it so he can kill the victims at any point with little more than a thought. Nor does it justify the (wholly unrelated) [[spoiler:mind rape]]. Or the [[spoiler:effective slavery]]. Or the [[spoiler:magical creation of a child who will know nothing but suffering]]. Or the [[spoiler:initiation of the end of human civilization]].
** Just after [[spoiler:TheMasquerade is broken and Queen Alice causes havoc in downtown London]], the story lectures about how civilization was on the verge of collapse for decades thanks to its corruption [[spoiler:in order to justify the protagonists intentionally tipping it over the edge]] and one of the examples cited is the decline of the nuclear family. But Harry is in a polygamous relationship, so non-nuclear families are fine when he does it, but not anyone else?

* RaceLift: Fred and George come up with a product called “Caucasian Cream”[[note]]it is unclear if it is supposed to be a skin cream or a confection[[/note]] which was supposed to allow users to temporarily change their ethnic features. [[GoneHorriblyWrong The field test reveals the effects are permanent.]] Within days, every student in Hogwarts who is a racial minority uses it to become white. [[CluelessAesop And Lionheart thinks he’s taking a stand against racism somehow.]]
* RealityIsOutToLunch: As the fanfic goes on, fairy magic becomes more and more potent until Hermione’s mere presence in a Muggle town causes technology to mutate into MixAndMatchCritters and trees to be made of candy canes. For some reason, Hogwarts and its grounds are not affected despite the Forbidden Forest being the fairies’ base. It can’t even be because Hermione was in a place with no magic, since not only does Harry sneak into Muggle towns to frame KFC for a plot against Dumbledore, even after becoming a fairy, with no ill effects, but Trelawney later spends just as much time in a Muggle park as Hermione while leaving it untouched, ''and'' [[spoiler:co-opts the Muggle space program to bring dryad acorns along]] without the fairy magic tampering with the instruments in the slightest.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Lucius Malfoy is said to be Luna's uncle (with Pandora Lovegood, Luna's late mother, apparently being his sister), which apparently justifies [[spoiler:Luna inheriting Lucius's status as head of the Malfoy family (instead of Draco, Lucius's son) after she murders him.]] In canon, while all of the pureblood families are interrelated to a degree, there is no evidence that Luna is '''that''' closely related to the Malfoys (and while she's not a Muggle-born and both her parents are magical, it's not stated whether she's a pure- or a half-blood).

** [[spoiler: And the point of time travel is to do this to Harry's backstory. As a reward for [[MoralEventHorizon making women sex slaves.]]]]
* RevengeFic: Mostly against Dumbledore and Snape, but other characters feel the author’s wrath as well. This is noticeably a staple of Skysaber's/Lionheart's work, even when it's not meant to be the focal point, and tends to descend into TorturePorn uncomfortably often.
* RougeAnglesOfSatin: [[AvertedTrope Remarkably infrequent]], given both the size of the story and the fact that [[SturgeonsLaw it’s a fanfic]]. The number of mistakes increases drastically in the last third of the story.
* SameFaceDifferentName: Ornstead did not reveal his identity as Perfect Lionheart until several years after he began the story. At that time, he explained that his motive for publishing under the Lionheart name was to prove that the alleged cabal of haters who he believes lives to denigrate his work would not find fault with ''Partially Kissed Hero'' because the “Skysaber” name wasn’t on it. Naturally, Perfect Lionheart’s identity was debated strongly in many fora before this announcement, with the two main camps settling on “Oh, yeah, it’s Skysaber” and “Nah, it’s a Skysaber tribute band.”

** Early in the story, Harry pulls a prank on Professor Binns’ first-year class by tricking them into thinking that ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings'' is about the history of the wizarding world. Later [[spoiler: when Dumbledore [[TeamRocketWins defeats Harry and his harem in combat easily]] he is compared favorably to Sauron.]]

** Draco, Crabbe and Goyle are Confunded into thinking they were attacked by [[UsefulNotes/KentuckyFriedChicken Colonel Sanders]], [[Series/BarneyAndFriends Barney the Dinosaur]] and the Pillsbury Doughboy. [[spoiler: Barney actually appears later and attacks with his music.]]

** The descriptions of some characters don't match their actions.
*** Harry is supposed to be pure of heart and have more backbone than canon Harry. In practice, he is a sadist who puts himself before others and prefers hiding from enemies who can fight back, unlike canon Harry, showing less of a spine.

* ShowyInvincibleHero (or [[MoralDissonance villain]] as your mileage on Harry): It is incredibly obvious as early as chapter 15 that Dumbledore is going to be no match for Harry and company. The rest of the story is just seeing how it plays out.

* SomewhereAMammalogistIsCrying: Bellatrix thinks that a simple shrinking charm will allow her animagus form -- a white tiger -- to pass as an ordinary housecat. In reality, there are many more differences between the two animals than just size, and quite a few of these differences can easily be seen.

* SuddenNameChange: At first, Luna’s mother is named Pandora, but in her next mention dozens of chapters later becomes known as Selene. Considering the gap, the author probably forgot what he used as her name the first time.

** Ironically, the story uses droids with guns (and [[DeusExNukina nukes]]) later.
** At one point the narration exposits on how there are a number of “Boy Who Lived” books in-universe, which are clearly a dig at PossessionSue ''Harry Potter'' fics. The irony appears to be lost on the author. It has also been suggested that the same sequence incorporates shots at the ''actual Literature/HarryPotter'' books, because some of the complaints are similar to those in the author’s notes. The irony of '''that''' is something well beyond merely lost on the author.
** The rampant demonization of goblins has been suggested to be at least partly a shot at fics where Harry or some other character (sometimes an OC) befriends them and gets loads of stuff as a result. As opposed to ''this'' Harry befriending fairies and getting loads of powerups as a result, which is apparently okay.
** The author's notes take shots at the DracoInLeatherPants trope, as applied to characters like Snape or Draco. The fact that that same trope is applied to Bellatrix in this story is very likely lost on the author.
* TooCleverByHalf: Dumbledore is fooled by the "Colonel Sanders" simple bluff because he thinks it's a Dark Lord just like him, hiding behind a fast food mascot and just being very subtle. He also thinks of too many possibilities before he acts, becoming vulnerable to biltzkrieg. While in practice that makes him a fool, he is intended to be this with these excuses.
* UngratefulBastard: Harry in Chapter 2. He complains to Dumbedore that he never helped him because he keeps Snape as a teacher. Even though Dumbledore helped save him from the Dementor at this very story and chapter.

* VillainWithGoodPublicity: Dumbledore, who has near-total control over the Wizarding world while being perceived as a paragon of virtue.
* VirginPower[=/=]VirginSacrifice: It comes up that virginity is highly prized among witches because of various rites.

* VoodooShark: During the "Trelawney in TheSixties" arc, [[spoiler:Trelawney uses the Imperius curse to make Soviet nuclear testing personel nuke Moscow]]. To explain why this didn't lead to [[spoiler:retaliatory nuclear attacks on the West]], it's said in the following chapter that [[spoiler:Trelawney managed to Imperius the KGB into eliminating everyone with access to the nuclear launch codes]]. Not only does this raise further questions (how did they get to them in time), it also raises the question of why she couldn't just [[spoiler:Imperius the Soviet government into backing down instead of nuking Moscow]].
* WeHaveReserves: Harry uses this rationalization when [[spoiler:he recruits the Death Eaters.]] Yes, we are still supposed to like him.
* TheWorfEffect: Dumbledore is supposedly extremely powerful, but gets the ButtMonkey treatment often. One of his few moments of shown competence is him humiliating Voldemort to submission while [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome explaining how he manipulated him and his rise to power.]] Of course, the author had to ruin it by [[ShowDontTell telling the audience the purpose is indeed Worf Effect.]]
** Also, the Fairy Queen is powerful enough to [[spoiler: break loyalty imprints and send people back in time, but opening the egg of a Phoenix tires her out.]]
* WorfHadTheFlu: Dumbledore Has Malaclaw Venom. This trope is abused in this story. Without the venom, he actually manages to [[TeamRocketWins beat Harry and his harem and capture them for a little while.]] [[spoiler: Ironically, he is still defeated by pure luck when he does later.]]

** Mastergandalf of Blog/DasSporking is doing [[https://das-sporking2.dreamwidth.org/tag/fic:+partially+kissed+hero a public spork]] on that site, which (as of May 28, 2021) has all 103 chapters sporked.

* MassiveMultiplayerCrossover: Downplayed, as it's mostly in Luna's backstory, but her family apparently has ties to (among other stories) ''Literature/TheWonderfulWizardOfOz'', ''Literature/AlicesAdventuresInWonderland'', ''Theatre/PeterPan'', and ''Film/ChittyChittyBangBang''. And on top of '''that''', a throwaway line in Chapter 54 shows that '''''ComicBook/{{Batman}}''''' apparently exists in this universe.

** Due to the constant (ab)use of TimeTravel, it's pretty much impossible to keep track of when ''anything'' after the first encounter with the fairies takes place. Not helped by Lionheart's constant {{Retcon}}s involving time travel being used to set up whatever he just came up with.

* ArtisticLicenseEconomics: Chapter 97 establishes that the entirety of the British magical economy relies on Dumbledore's smuggled goods to function, because his laws have put so many restrictions on manufacturing or importing goods that it is literally impossible to buy, sell, or otherwise acquire literally anything. Somehow this utter stranglehold on supply hasn't encouraged a single other smuggler to go into business nor created a black market.
