    Summary

    “Are they a man or a woman?”

    It was a moment of vulnerability. A couple beers still coursing through his system, drunk on the happiness and love from his group, cameras almost forgotten.

    Truths were bound to slip out eventually.

    “They're not quite sure about this either.”

    Summary

    littlebastardreviews posted the collected facts from the 2014 UK Editions of Harry Potter: and this fact caught my eye.

    'Only one non-magical person has ever managed to get as far as the Hogwarts Sorting Hat before being exposed as a Squib.'

    But, gosh it just makes me want a story where a squib did make it through. So here's a drabble about a squib with a quick mind and a hand-me-down wand, who refuses to be denied her birthright.

    --

    when the hat drops over her eyes it asks, 'well what do we have here?'

    she’s got a forged hogwarts letter with penmanship that’s perfect down to the ink splatter;

    she’s got a complicated string of owls, only half of them forged, from parents to administration to ministry that’s so complicated her name ended up on the first year roll call anyway.

    she’s got ten arguments, four pleas, and one smothered threat on the tip of her mental tongue for why the house that comes out of this hat’s brim better not be 'squib'

    she’s got a lighter up her sleeve and an eight and a half inch wand in her belt that will never, ever work for her.

    'well,' says the hat, 'better be slytherin then'

    Summary

    In which Yusuf is a witch, striking out on his own and looking to make his way in the world -- what he finds instead is a very peculiar rabbit, desperately in need of his help. Destiny might have brought them together, for reasons not entirely clear, but Yusuf isn't going to abandon a soul in distress -- especially if he has the ability to do something about it. (And if he happens to fall in love along the way, well... who is he to deny his own heart?)

    Summary

    Nicolo has a growing list of Things That No Longer Make Sense. They go as follows:

    1) He can no longer die. Which, in itself, is pretty strange.
    2) The man he killed multiple times is somehow, impossibly, like him.
    3) He may or may not be having a crisis of faith.
    4) His former enemy is treating him like a friend. Even defending him, the man that can't die.
    5) And, most confusing of all, why does he like it when Yusuf smiles at him like THAT?
