Insane Asylum Escapees

Originally By: RuneWitchSakura, now by Steve2

This is a series of oneshots that involve Harry believing that everyone in the 'magical' world is insane. Starts with Dumbledore, Snape, and McGonagall getting Harry, instead of Hagrid, and goes from there. Involves much sarcasm from Harry. Books 1-7

Introduction:

A few years ago, RuneWitchSakura created a series of one-shots around the Harry Potter universe. She wrote the following in Chapter 14 of her story (reprinted here at the bottom of this chapter). I took a look at these chapters and it tickled my funny bone enough to want to finish this story. So I have her chapters incorporated into this larger story. I am doing all books 1-7. It is still a bunch of one-shots, but will hopefully make a little more sense as I am putting them in order and adding more to Rune's chapters as well as creating my own. After going through her updates, it appears that these initial chapters only went into Book 5.

As of this initial posting, I have created all chapters for Books 1-7 with multiple chapters for each book (sometimes quite a few chapters, depending on what I find funny). Rune originally wrote 15 chapters and as of this writing, I have 35 chapters created so far. I would encourage any readers who want to review the original story of Rune's to check her site out and read these. I hope you like what I write and enjoy the changes and updates. Some of Rune's chapters had minor tweaks; others had a lot of additional content added. I can certainly say some of what I have in here has not been done before. I hope. I mean, there are what, nearly a million HP stories? I've only read about 700 of them. I haven't read anything like this before.

Anyhoo, please feel free to read and if you would like to do an omake, or even have an idea you want to pass along, please put it in a review or send a personal message to me. I look forward to reading them and putting them in. I will try to maintain a fairly consistent upload of these chapters for the foreseeable future.

From Rune – original Chapter 14: (Probably Not The) Last Update

Dear Readers,

It is with a heavy heart that I finally admit I just no longer have the time to write fanfiction. My last ditch attempt to finish them by posting them to my livejournal, with my last upload being almost a year ago, unfortunately did not work. I'm sorry to those of you who followed me there that I was unable to finish them.

I am placing all my uncompleted stories up for adoption. If you choose to adopt a story, please pm me (on ) so that I may let those interested know by posting your penname in the story in question.

I will very shortly be privatizing the fanfiction posts on my livejournal (if I haven't already), and hosting them solely on . The few fanfictions that were introduced to my livejournal but not on , will be posted on fanfiction shortly after. I will also be uploading any remaining written portions and notes for each chapter to fanfiction. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Thank you for your time,

RuneWitchSakura/MChilz

While other stories are being put up for adoption and marked complete, Insane Asylum Escapees is being left open, as I may eventually add more too it. Don't let that keep you from adopting it anyway. There is a new chapter about to be uploaded.

Feel free to adopt this story. If you do, please remember to PM me so I may add your penname below.
