Harry Potter half-time show
Mar. 24th, 2005 09:48 amOn a brief fic & lj break before another plunge back into the abyss of mental paralysis that is Administrative Law.
Chris took the test where everybody keeps coming up Squib, and to our mutual unsurprise ended up in:
***
Found two good fics late last night that made up for the dismal failure of my earlier attempt at distracting myself, and felt much, much better. In fact, I ended up taking a bunch of humorous quotes from one of them to show to Chris. If these sound familiar to anybody, can you point me to the story? It takes place after the war, when many of the characters are now working for the Ministry of Magic sort of mopping up bad magical stuff like demons and monsters. Rather... um, adult, in its main plot, but with a whole bunch of good funny bits and writing that conveys a lot in very few words. And a lot of rather cliched situations that end up working (for me) because the writer doesn't seem to take them all that seriously, or gives them a slight twist.
