"Moving On" by LadyKatie
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3717765/1/Moving_On
Fuck, I love this fanfic. It's Harry/Draco, post DH. It's canon compliant (minus the epilogue, natch), and just ... fuck.
It wasn't perfect. There were a couple of scenes where I rolled my eyes (and some cringeworthy sex), but nothing that made me stop reading. I also love how this fic explored the notion of Wizarding Britain after Voldemort's fall.
I mentioned in my last post that I was never a Harry/Draco fan, but if one fic were to make me like the pairing, this is it. This is my "Dating Disasters of Sirius Black" for all the Drarry shippers out there. This makes sense to me.

"The Gospel According to Lupin" by Scandalacious Intentions
This fic has just finished, and it's very cute.

It's a series of notes Lupin left to Teddy.

"Rise from the Ashes" by MidniteMarauder
Out of all the stories I thought I'd rec here, I never thought one would be a Teddy/Cedric fic, but here we are.

I can't think of how to describe this fic without giving away the plot. It is a Time Travel fic, so that should tell you all you need to know. It's only eight chapters, and they're pretty short, so the story feels a bit rushed in some ways - for example, certain people seem to accept Teddy's identity a bit too easily - but, for the most part, this fic has a great story and is an enjoyable read.
Don't worry about the pairing, either, because the slash isn't dominate and is handled really well.

"Empty Classrooms" by Bowles
My first recommendation is going to be a fic that I first discovered just a month or so ago, and I have been unable to stop thinking about. It is about Hermione inheriting an academic tract that Lupin had been working on almost his entire life. In it, he begs the question: Why does Hogwarts have so many empty classrooms?

I am recommending this fic because it is very, very brilliant, it is about a concept that, as far as I know, has not been delved into before (and is so wonderfully worth considering that it's almost as if every question I have ever had about the HP universes has been answered), and just, in general, is exactly what I think Harry Potter fanfiction should be. Great, great stuff. Can't recommend it enough. The descriptions about the dark magic get a bit repetative toward the end, but it's worth looking in to at any rate - especially if you're tired of dramatic, slash-y stories written by 14-year-olds (not that there's anything wrong with those)!
