This is a really interesting concept... I love the idea of a wheat shortage throwing society into chaos and then the imports being stolen/appropriated.

I know this was a pinch-hit so you didn't have tons of time to write/beta. But the following typos made me lol :)

“I love you, Hermione!” Rob said before smashing their lips together. This Rob guy is pretty interesting, wish he'd stuck around in the story.

You will be posing as Miss Astoria Greengrass, a pureblood from Whales. Was that a pureblood killer, blue, or beluga whale??

*hugs* great kiss at the end :)

*grin* I noticed all of those, too, esp. the 'Rob' part. Had me LOLing.

I loved the "Rob" blurp - my hubby is a "Rob" and he does think Emma/Hermione is cute!

:)

*heads desk* Rob is a man who lives in Typo, Whales. Lovely in the summer:)

I am completely fail without a beta:) I'm glad you were able to suffer through the story and found some amusement in it!

This was zany, fun, and a delightful little mystery. Living in a college town I can only imagine the wailing and gnashing of teeth that would occur if the alcohol supply was ever jeopardized, so your take on that was amusingly realistic.

Nice Job!

[shadowclub]

Thank you:) Yes, I live in a college area and there would be so much drama!

Aww, come on I was just getting into it. Hehehe really this was original and interesting. I like it. Good job.

[shadowclub]

Thank you! I do plan to expand/ get further into it now that I have some time!

[somandalicious]

I think, that this is a delightful mystery and I really hope that you intended to flesh it out into a longer ending! I too enjoyed the typos! Way to go!

[shadowclub]

I think I will definitely flesh it out so that it isn't so jumpy! I loved writing the first bit!

Typos are my best friend (especially without a beta:)!

LMAO what an awesome idea! I read the summary and notes to my bff, and she said, "OMG, does the author KNOW you?!"

I'm sorry you didn't get much time to work on this, but what you've written is very funny. I hope you'll consider adding on to it!

Great job, Mystery Author and THANK YOU!!! :D

[shadowclub]

I'm glad you enjoyed the idea! Your prompt was a little open ended, so I was a little worried!

♥ if I do end up fleshing it out (which is likely) I'll let you know in case you want to read on the full plot plans I had:)
