A ''Franchise/HarryPotter'' fanfic series [[https://fanfictalk.com/archive/viewseries.php?seriesid=241]] centered on chaos and sometimes questionable decision-making from next-gens Victoire Weasley, Fred II Weasley, and some of their friends. The main story starts with them missing the Hogwarts Express at the beginning of their sixth year, but there are also multiple spinoffs and modern muggle and crossover alternate universes.
