It had been a miserable full moon. The Potion, Remus was reluctant to admit, had been on inferior quality this month, something the brewer he had consulted had not warned him about, and the transformation was even more painful than usual. Even with Padfoot to offset some of the pain and, above all, boredom of his wolf state, Remus had felt ( Read more... )

DARK CREATURE REHIRED AT HOGWARTS
Rita Skeeter - Wednesday, August 29th

It is undisputed that dark days have come: murder, disappearances, frightening happenings in the Muggle world, and on the eve of our children's return to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, we pray that they will be safe there.

BUT WILL THEY?

In a move that has shocked the ( Read more... )

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, no doubt... not the Ministry-Approved Defense books, definitely not. They'd have gotten their book lists by now, so a new textbook is out of the question. There should be books left in stock I can distribute ( Read more... )

Remus had received the owl whilst sorting through his socks upstairs from the Three Broomsticks, and was very puzzled as to why Dumbledore had just sent him a letter asking for his presence.

Hey all. :)

So, being the indecisive dork I am, I got to thinking more about Remus and his role here. Before I said I wanted to completely erase him from Hogwarts history (heh) but I came to thinking about that logic-wise and it got me confused and a lot of strange thoughts came out of it.

I was reading a rather interesting book today from Sirius' library after work (which, by the way, was slightly less painful today than it was yesterday). It illustrated in perfect, complete detail twenty-five fail-safe ways to kill a werewolf. Part of a series, I believe. James used to pore over the one for charming witches ( Read more... )

Bugger. I always seem to up and disappear during exciting plot points ( Read more... )

Harry,

Happy belated birthday - I'm afraid I was feeling rather... peaky on the day of your birthday, and so couldn't wish you a happy birthday in person. All that aside, I wish you the best of-age luck you could possibly have!

PS. These were some of your father's favourites from Zonko's. I hope you have plenty of mischief with them.

It seems to be incredibly cold. I have to keep taking up more blankets and layers of clothing and yet the day outside is sunny, birds are chirping, and no doubt it is warm and quite lovely. I, however, still cannot help but shiver. It is frankly, as Sirius or Tonks might phrase it, pretty bloody freezing. And I am utterly convinced it shouldn't be ( Read more... )
