Harry Potter: The Wizard Who Didn’t Take Destiny Seriously
Reincarnated into the Harry Potter world one year before the Boy-Who-Lived, Alexander Chen wants only one thing: fun.
Unfortunately, fate sends him to Hogwarts.
A pure-blood Chinese American raised in the United States, Alexander knows exactly how this story is supposed to go—and wants no part in destiny, Dark Lords, or heroic sacrifices. Sorted into Ravenclaw (as predicted, because the Sorting Hat is definitely racist), he decides to ignore the plot entirely and enjoy magic his own way.
That means pranks, modified spells, public arguments with ancient magical artifacts, and a complete lack of respect for Hogwarts tradition.
With a Thunderbird-core wand, a sharp tongue, and zero fear of authority, Alexander quickly becomes a problem the school cannot ignore. Professors are torn between admiration and concern, students spread rumors, and the castle itself seems to watch him with interest.
This is not a story about saving the world.
It’s about breaking expectations, bending magic, and having fun—whether the wizarding world is ready or not.
A chaotic, comedic take on Hogwarts, rebellion, and refusing to be normal in a world obsessed with prophecy.

I read this on fanfiction.net, and had to drop it. I would say its a good story, but its got a more mature harry. The reason i dropped it was due to him being dismissive of hermione, and that later on, no one saves her from the troll. This causes her to be severely injured, so she moves schools to someplace else. Although i know some people dont like hermione as a character, i just couldnt get over it.
