Magic of the Force
is an ongoing Harry Potter and Star Wars crossover fanfiction by Vimesnthusiast. To date, it has over 20 Chapters and almost 900 thousand words.
Magic of The Force provides examples of:
- Adaptational Relationship Overhaul: Anakin and Obi-Wan never develop the mentor-student/brotherly relationship they had in canon due to Mace Windu becoming Anakin’s Master instead.
- Big Damn Heroes: When Aayla is captured during her mission, she is strapped down and about to be injected with drugs (and potentially much worse), Harry arrives in the Tatooine system and reawakens the mostly dormant Force Bond he has with Aayla. Doing so allows Aayla to purge the drugs already in her system, and allows Harry to help by use the Force through her instead of being physically present.
- Cool Ship: The Tyrant’s Bane, Fay’s (and later Harry’s) HEAVILY customized Lucrehulk. Among its various alterations include Force-induced spatial expansions, a farm for growing its own crops, and a massive array of powerful weapons.
- Crazy Jealous Guy: Downplayed, but Anakin really isn’t a fan of how close Harry and Padme are.
- Loophole Abuse: Harry and the Nabooians take advantage of the lack of laws forbidding the claiming of property or mandating its return to confiscate many of the Trade Federation's assets, including anLucrehulk.
- What the Hell, Hero?: Lily and Harry give the Jedi as a whole a couple of these. Lily first calls out the unhealthy emotional suppression of the Jedi Order, as well at their tendency to take any child that is Force Sensitive regardless of the parents' wishes. Later, the Council gets called out for Aayla’s mission and how disastrous it could have been for a young woman, for the exact reasons one might expect.
