"Out of the three Hallows, why did you choose to keep the Cloak of Invisibility?"

Harry blinked slowly at his drinking partner, now a blur of white blond hair and black Ministry robes. Perhaps he had drunk one too many cups of Firewhiskey.

"It reminded me of my Dad."

Malfoy, the git, threw back his head and laughed.

"A keepsake, Potter? My mother’s music box is a keepsake." Malfoy enunciated each word carefully. "The Deathly Hallow," he waved a pointy finger at Harry’s eyes. "—is most definitely not a keepsake!"

He then proceeded to slump on Harry’s shoulder, unconscious.

Last year I lucked out both for the fic I remix and the remixed fic I received \o/
I love the idea of remixredux (in comparison to hd_remix, where you remix an H/D fic you've probably read for an author you've probably interacted with before. Dunno, just not as inspiring to me.)
It's an excuse to write gen, a pairing you never write before, or a fandom that you usually don't write in =)

My past remix is: "The Silent Son (The Unutterable Words Remix)" The original is Sirius gen, my remix is Regulus gen. The story coagulated in my brain for weeks, then I wrote the whole thing in one day =)
And my Draco (dm1980) gen drabble was remixed into "Brewing the River Styx (From Styx to Lethe Remix)"--which I adore <333

I'll have to write as many drabbles as possible by March 1 to give my remixer more choices \o/ And I'll try to have "Love Hopes All Things" rewritten by March 1 too so it can qualify to be remixed *g*

Ahaha, and melfinatheblue, I see that you caved in and signed up too X-D

Shut up, Jo, Shut UP!

Thanks to your stupid interview and family tree I now have:
- three Scorpiuses in my head,
- three Draco's wives,
- this re-surging urge to ship Draco/Charlie (who stayed single = YAYZ \o/),
- this out-of-nowhere urge to ship Scorpius/Louis Weasley (Bill's son) and Scorpius/Lysander Scamander (Luna's son) because those two have the coolest name ever D:
AND
- this urge to write Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy/Rose Weasley JUST BECAUSE.

P.S. In my S.S.M. fanon, Scorpius is younger than Al and Rose though. Score is also born in 2006, like Al and Rose--but he was born on August 31, 2006 *g*. They started attending Hogwarts in 2017. Darn I might need to revise my 20 Things timeline.

P.P.S. ( Weasley family tree, with commentaries by yours truly. It's a wiiide image because the Weasleys breed like bunnies. )

Three Scorpiuses:
1. Scorpius Severus Malfoy (Slytherin, Su Li's son, Jade's older brother, became Prefect in Fifth Year then Head Boy)
2. Scorpius Amaryllis Malfoy (Slytherin, Astoria Greengrass' son, only child, moved to Beauxbatons for his Third and Fourth Year and came back to Hogwarts during his Fifth Year, character in "Love Hopes All Things")
3. Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy (Ravenclaw, Astoria Greengrass' son, only child, mother died when he was a child, ended up marrying Rose Weasley, character planned for "Love Never Falls Away")

Three women who became Draco's wife:
1. Su Li (Ravenclaw, Chinese, met Draco in China, moved to China with Jade when Scorpius was nine for her work, moved back when Jade started attending Hogwarts)
2. Astoria Greengrass (beautiful, not a good mother, separated from Draco when Scorpius was nine, got a divorce when Scorpius was ten, background character in "Love Hopes All Things")
3. Pansy Parkinson (Draco's childhood friend, doting mother, found out that Draco was having an affair, character planned for "Love Does Not Seek Its Own")

---

I've written ten out of 20 things for Scorpius Amaryllis Malfoy, and one 589-word scene in which S.A.M. and Al Potter are in their Sixth Year and just had their first fight after certain revelations during a game of "I've Never" with other Slytherins =P
Ha. Haha. I just love my Malfoys too much.

Anyway, how's everyone's New Year so far?
