January Girl is a Supernatural/Harry Potter crossover by parenthetical. It was written for the Supernatural Crossover Big Bang challenge in 2009. The photo art for this story is by darkmagic_luvr.[1]
Summary: "With Sam trying out normal life at Stanford and his father working an undercover gig across the country, Dean is on his own and getting reckless. While investigating a series of mysterious deaths, he runs into a strange witch called Luna Lovegood, who is searching for what she calls a 'Horcrux'. (Seriously?) Suddenly Dean finds himself dealing with evil wizards, broomsticks, Bat-Bogey Hexes, Dementors, mirrors which order him to wear a pointy hat, and much more - all the while trying not to think too much about Luna's last name and whether it's accurate."
Recs and Reviews
INSTANT REC!!! I had a BLAST reading this story. I loved the plot, character voices, and yeah I love crossovers and this one went above and beyond expectations.[2]
This is not you usual HP crossover where Sam & Dean miraculously find themselves attending Hogwarts, in fact the wonder trio barely make an appearance and we stay in America. Luna is just the right amount of crazy, dragging Dean along for the ride and creating his fear of flying."[3]
In this AU of the Deathly Hallows, Luna and some other members of the Order are in America tracking down a suspected Horcrux. Dean stumbles across her in battle, and her separation from the rest of the group results in her and Dean working together to track the Horcrux down. Luna is delightfully in character, and that results in an unusual - and all the more sweet for it - romance. Despite the dark subject matters that are Death Eaters and Horcruxes and Dementors, this is a light fic and an easy read. I don't quite believe that a Season 1 Dean would accept that there are good witches quite as quickly as he does, despite his protective instincts. Nevertheless, the fic is still a lovely read featuring a surprisingly compatible rare pair.[4]
