I’m also one-thirds into Amends, or Truth and Reconciliation, which is a decent look at how Harry Potter characters would logically react to the end of the Second Wizarding War. So far no idiot balls and pretty good characterization.
Rationalising Death may be better if you haven’t read Death Note; it’s pretty good about explaining everything. As someone familiar with Death Note my feeling so far has been that Rationalising Death hasn’t diverged enough; it sometimes feels like just rehashing the original. Not always, certainly, and I’m overall enjoying it, but that’s seemed like the biggest flaw to me so far (admittedly, the author says divergence will increase as it goes along, and there are signs of that pattern).
There’s a new subreddit dedicated to rationalist fiction. You can check out stories linked there. I’m currently reading Rationalising Death, a Death Note fanfic and it’s pretty good even though I haven’t seen the anime on which it’s based.

Chapter 7 is where it really starts moving on its own track, in my opinion. Things are really shaking up, and unknown forces are now in play.
