Now there could be a good humorfic plot bunny - what horrible time-travel possibilities occur when one trips down a flight of stairs while wearing a time-turner?

I'm still living in denial of anything post HBP. So far I just stubbornly immerse myself in the land of AU's. ;-)

Actually, another plot bunny occurred to me. What if an investigator at the Dept of Mysteries *noticed* the inventory discrepancy and had to confiscate the time-turner from Harry?

This could either be another good humor fic or could even be written "straight" as in the Unspeakable/MLE officer/whoever has to confiscate the implement, and Harry, naturally, doesn't want to give up a good thing.

Or, if you want to use the Harry-recruited-into-the-Unspeakables plot device (which is not cliche since I haven't seen it used a lot), then you could have *Bellatrix* finding out a time turner fell down her, ah... front and got lodged in between her... front bits, which she proudly presents to Voldemort.

Unspeakable!Harry, partly on the strength of having used a time-turner under less-than-carefully-controlled conditions, would be partnered with $SENIOR_OFFICER and they would have to try and steal back the Time Turner before Voldemort starts using it to do Bad Stuff. :)
