Bwahahahahaha XD

The footnotes are absolutely spot on, "Muggles: A List of Facts We're Pretty Sure Are True" sounds exactly like the sort of thing you'd find in a Harry Potter book.

I'm the authoranon of the other fill, and I fully support the writing of more Harry Potter-related crossovers :D

:DDD So epic! I think my favourite bit might be 1. Voting is something Muggles do to select their leader, even though it makes them feel quite frustrated and cross. Heh. <3
