You Don’t Have to Earn BreakfastA Harry Potter AU | Found Family | Indian Magical Culture | HealingWhat if Harry Potter had been found before the cupboard could break him?In this story, he becomes Hari Patil—adopted by a magical Indian family in London. Here, magic isn’t just spells and war. It’s healing. It’s haldi milk and halwa, sacred threads and snake-whispers. It’s the soft, radical truth that you don’t have to earn love—or breakfast.This is a story about a boy who learns what it means to belong.💬 Author’s Note:Many fanfics beautifully imagine Harry as Indian or part-Indian. I’m not Indian myself, but I’ve long been fascinated by the depth and warmth of Indian culture—especially its magic, spirituality, and family traditions. This story is my tribute, written with love and deep respect. I hope it reads that way.
