Weekly Prompt Poll- 11

Two new options this week after 'Shared Experiences' won and 'Not What You Think' came in last for a second consecutive week. As always, thanks to everyone who voted. 

If you have any questions, please do ask. I never mind answering. 

Shared Experiences

AN: After a few weeks in the poll, this one finally wins. This was an interesting one to write because, I had a couple of ways I considered taking it. I like what I chose though. Hope all you readers do too!

Casting: 

Hestia and Flora- Renee Murden

“Cho, I don’t think you really want to do… any of this.” Harry stood in the Room of Requirement with only the sixth year Ravenclaw for company. They’d just shared a frankly miserable first kiss under some mistletoe ...

The Benefits of Saving Veela- Chapter 14

AN: Casting

Susan- Natalia Tihomirova

Daphne- Nicole Deliah

Ginny- Megan DeLuca

Anya- Hannah Palmer

Orina- Hilde Osland

Iliyana- Leanna Bartlett

The tunnel was dank, dewy, and horribly uneven until it opened onto a high vaulted chamber with a smooth grey stone floor. Great pillars flanked him on either side, entwined with carved wood. It was wet, having been flooded at some point in the past. At the far end of the room, there was a massive statue of w...

Story Poll- 2

There's just one more part of 'Marital Bliss' that I have planned. So, I'd like to know which of the other prompt winners you would like to see with a sequel next. 

For this one, I'm going to make all of the past prompt winners, barring one-shots, options, even the ones that lost in the last Story Poll. So, there's seven options! The one that wins will obviously get a sequel, while the stories that come in second and third will get to be part of the next Story Poll.  

If...

Aggressive Apologies

AN: Here's the winner of the first Second Chance Poll! Thanks for voting. Hope you enjoy the story. 

Casting: This is one of those situations where the character is synonymous with the actress for me. I thought about putting someone else here but decided against it. 

Hermione- Emma Watson

It was chilly, as late December in the Highlands of Scotland usually were, but Harry didn’t care one bit. Atop his brand new Firebolt without a care in the world, he was whoopin...

Weekly Prompt Poll- 10

It's hard to believe we've already gotten to double digits, but here we are. Time really does fly. 'Unexpected Visit' won last week's poll and is the only one being replaced this week. 

If you have any questions, as always just leave a comment or shoot me a message.

An Unexpected Visit

AN: Thanks for voting as always! 

Casting: Will say, it took me a while to decide on who I would put here. There were a few ladies I was considering but decided on this lovely woman.

Bellatrix- Jessica Bartlett

Staring at herself in the mirror, Bellatrix was pleased with the changes that had come over the summer. Her violet eyes were no longer sunken, deep and hollow within their sockets. Her skin, which would always be naturally pale, had a healthy glow to it again. He...

The Benefits of Saving Veela - Chapter 13

AN: Casting

Daphne- Nicole Deliah 

Susan - Natalia Tihomirova

Tracey- Shaelah McGilton 

Sue - Park Da Hyun

Sitting at the Hufflepuff table across from Susan, Daphne couldn’t be happier with the changes that had taken place since the start of the year thanks to Malfoy’s fall from grace. In just a few short weeks, she’d rekindled relationships that had really meant something to her as a child. She wasn’t sure how understanding Susan would be but e...

Marital Bliss Part 3

AN: I felt like there was still more to do in this story. So, here's the next part.

Casting: 

Ginny- Megan DeLuca

Gabrielle- Filippa Fransson  

Little Estelle Black giggled and gurgled happily on the ground as her Aunt Fleur and Grandmother Apolline doted on her. Just as Gabby predicted, her mother had been very accepting of things when she explained her situation to her parents… her father less so, but he still loved his daughter and so accepted things for...

Weekly Prompt Poll - 9

Two new options this week. 'Last Ditch Efforts' won while 'Not So Easily Overlooked' falls out after coming in last, by the biggest margin of any option to date, two weeks in a row.

As always if you have any questions, I'm happy to answer in the comments or via messages. 

Last Ditch Efforts - TBOSV Oneshot

AN: This one takes place during the conversation during Chapter 9 , though it takes a decidedly different turn. 

Casting:

Narcissa- Camilla Ackerberg 

Taking a deep, shuddering breath, Narcissa eyes were wet with unshed tears, and she looked entirely lost for a moment. Shaking herself she looked at her cousin, "I requested your presence here, in your formal capacity as Head of House Black, so that you could annul my marriage. I have no desire to remain attached to ...

Second Chance Poll

So there have been four prompts now that have fallen out of the weekly poll thanks to being lowest two weeks in a row, but there were still people who faithfully voted for those prompts while they were available. So, here's one more opportunity to see them written!

The Benefits of Saving Veela- Chapter 12

Casting:

Padma- Ketika Sharma

Orina- Hilde Osland

Anya- Hannah Palmer

Sue- Park Da Hyun

Daphne- Nicole Deliah

Tracey- Shaelah McGilton

It was the third weekend of term, on Saturday and the carriages waited for every student from third year and up as everyone was excited for the year’s first Hogsmeade visit. Groups of friends passed him by as Harry walked alone down to the carriages.

Hermione was studying almost obsessively for the academic tou...

Weekly Prompt Poll- 8

Thanks to everyone who voted in last week's poll. 'Caught by the Right Person' won handedly and is the only one getting replaced this week. As it was a question last week, for anyone else who wasn't aware, Morag MacDougal is a Ravenclaw witch in Harry's year. One of those ones that pretty much never gets mentioned. 

Any comments, questions or concerns, please let me know. 

Caught by the Right Person

AN: It was interesting watching this poll, because at the start it was pretty close. I wasn't sure which option had the edge and figured it would come down to the extra votes for higher tier patrons. Then from the eighty-vote mark on most the votes went to this prompt and turned it into a runaway. 

Anyway, enough of my random musings, here's the story!

Casting:

Penelope- Marina Laswick 

Walking through the empty, quiet halls of Hogwarts, Penelope Clearwater�...

The Benefits of Saving Veela - Chapter 11

AN: Hope everyone who celebrated it had a good Thanksgiving. If not, I hope you had brilliant Thursday anyway.

Casting:

Tracey- Shaelah McGilton

Daphne- Nicole Deliah

Ginny- Megan DeLuca

It was a hazy morning, the sun only just coming above the horizon. There was dew on the grass and a light fog in the air. There was a soft breeze rustling the leaves of the Forbidden Forest as Harry made his way down to the Quidditch Pitch with Ginny by his side. The younger girl...

Weekly Prompt Poll- 7

There are two new options this week after 'The Intimate Details' won last week's poll and 'Aggressive Apologies' came in last for the second consecutive week. While I accidentally did a Harry/Rowena option in the past, it sparked an idea. 

If you have any questions, I'm always happy to answer them in the comments or messages!

The Intimate Details- TBOSV Oneshot

AN: So, the premise here is that everything going on with Harry in the TBOSV is turned up just a little bit... more and Harry reaps the benefit of it.

Casting:

Amelia- Elizabeth Ostrander

Joanna- Krissy Cela 

Stepping out of the emerald flames, Harry tripped only slightly. He found himself standing in the long, extravagant Ministry Atrium. The room was relatively quiet, but then it was quite late in the day. There were a few witches and wizards making their way to...

The Benefits of Saving Veela- Chapter 10

AN: Sorry this one is getting out a little late today. Been a bit busy this week and didn't get to the editing as soon as I would've liked. But here's the new chapter all the same. 

Casting:

Sue Li- Park Da Hyun

Padma- Ketika Sharma

Daphne- Nicole Deliah

Susan- Natalia Tihomirova 

Making his way down the enchanted staircase, Harry was amongst the fourth year Gryffindors as they all headed to the Great Hall. It was Saturday, another week of lessons...

Marital Bliss - Part 2

Casting:

Gabrielle- Filippa Fransson 

Ginny- Megan DeLuca

Gabrielle sat across from her sister in the living room of Grimmauld Place. They’d gotten together and chatted at least once a week since her arrival in England almost a month prior. Fleur was ecstatic that her sister had joined her there and had seen her more in that time than she had in the last couple years.

“Are you sure that you don’t want to come and stay with me and Bill?” Fleur asked her in ...

Weekly Prompt Poll- 6

'Keeping Him Out of Trouble' won last week's poll by a good margin. A big thanks to everyone who participated in that as well as the Story and Opinion Polls. You should see a second part to 'Marital Bliss' in the next day or two. It wasn't the one I expected to win considering it took four polls for it to win the first time, but people obviously enjoyed it enough to want a second part. 

Also, I wanted to say I hear you all loud and clear, prompts will stay strictly in the Harry Pot...

Keeping Him Out of Trouble

AN: Casting

Angelina - AuJene Love

Alicia - Sara Orrego

Katie - Alicia Schmidt 

Plodding into the ladies’ showers, the three starting Gryffindor chasers were all tired and frustrated. They all stripped off rain-soaked gear and were happy to get a bit of warmth back in their bones.

Ginny beat them in there and was in and out of the showers before the other girls were even done washing the dirt away. She had a date with Michael Corner and didn’t have time ...

The Benefits of Saving Veela- Chapter 9

Casting:

Narcissa- Camilla Akerberg

Orina- Hilde Osland

Anya- Hannah Palmer

There are some who try to oversimplify the necessary steps to protecting the mind. People tritely reduce the process down to things such as organize your mind. And while an organized mind can easily recall and remember information, when faced with a Legilimens those individuals will find themselves incredibly vulnerable. You must organize your memories and the information therein, but also ...
