Fan Fic: The Lie Ive Lived

The Lie I've Lived, an Alternate Universe Fic by jbern that picks up right at the end of Prisoner Of Azkaban. By blasting a couple hundred Dementors away, something inside Harry breaks loose All of James Potter's Memories. From here we get an expanded Triwizard Tournament, one of the best takes on The Sorting Hat, and Harry or HJ to fans kicking ass and taking names. A sequel is supposedly in the works, but his first Fan Fic Turn Me Loose

and his original novel are taking precedence.

Tropes:

Beta Couple: Penelope Clearwater and Oliver Wood
Blood Magic: Harry uses his blood to temporarily seal Durmstrang's geist away.
- Harry's blood on an object weakens Voldemort's ability to use magic on it.
Chivalrous Pervert: Harry
Crucified Hero Shot: When Dumbledore's body is recovered.
Dangerous Forbidden Technique: The Dykstra Shuffle, which involves switching body parts with someone else, and Harry does this with a badly burned left lung.
Defrosting Ice Queen: Fleur. Before then, Harry and the Hat would often refer to her as a frigid/ice bitch.
Disc One Final Boss: Igor Karkaroff, who kills Dumbledore from behind before being killed by Harry.
Dungeon Bypass: Harry uses Fawkes' fire traveling ability to attack Death Eaters in their homes.
Gender Equals Breed: Occurs when pureblood Veela have children with Muggles. The children are always Veela.
Ghost Memory: Harry having James' memories.
Great Big Book of Everything: The Potter Anybook
Honey Trap: Tracey and Millicent try this on Harry it fails.
Hot Springs Episode: Whenever Harry comes upon Fleur's grotto.
I Love You Because I Can't Control You: Part of Fleur's initial attraction to Harry.
Jerkass: Viktor Krum
Literal Surveillance Bug: The spyfly
Load-Bearing Boss: Durmstrang's geist serves this role for their ship.
Mobile Suit Human: The golem that the hat uses to get around.
Painting the Fourth Wall: Because the story is told as HJ's thoughts, the Hat can interject at any time, usually at points where you forget that you're reading someone's thoughts.
Psycho Supporter: Dobby serves as one for Harry
Shout Out: "Yeah, just call me 'Ambassador Potter', expert at foreign diplomacy and purveyor of international goodwill." A shoutout to his other work Bungle in the Jungle.
Side Bet: Usually between Harry and Fleur, but the others jump in sometimes.
Teen Genius: All the tournament champions are this in one way or another.
Trickster Mentor: The Sorting Hat
