So, uh, yeah. Hi. I just realised I've not posted since the Potterdammerung. Oops? I'm not dead, I'm just pining forthe fjords easily distracted!

So, update, and let's start with seeing what I got wrong in my DH predictions, shall we?

It occured to me last night that if RAB is indeed Regulus Black, as we all seem to think it is, then Draco is going to die in Book Seven.
Wrong, but I'm not too disappointed. Receding hairline > everything else, OMG!

Hagrid's going to bite it. He has to, all Harry's father figures do, and he's the only one left.
Wrong. Yeah, so I apparently forgot about Remus here, d'oh, but I somehow never quite saw him as one of Harry's father figures. And Hagrid lived, but wasn't much fatherish in this one, so.

Percy's going to bite it.
Wrong.
If not him, some other Weasley will.
Right, sob. Oh, Fred!

Harry's going to bite it. Duh.
Right, sort of. Stupid Messiah figures. :p

If Lee is mentioned at all, I will implode from bweee.
Right. Oh yes, there was much bwee-age.

There will be a sharp decline in warverse stories as we all get jossed to hell. :(
Too soon to tell, really, but I have hope. Sure, we didn't get the several-years-of-guerilla-fighting I'm so fond of in stories, but there was a whole year of Voldie in charge and people fighting him in various ways, and the jump from there to "what if it'd taken longer for Harry to find and destroy the horcruxes?" isn't that big. Plus, stories about what everyone else was doing during that year, about which more later in this entry.

Neville will save the day in some way.
Right, booya! Neville has had it with this motherfucking snake in his motherfuckin school! <3

There Will Be Wank.
Right, and if you expected anything else, you'll need to turn in your HP Fandom Member Badge, I'm afraid.

I'm thinking of running a ficathon/challenge/exchange type thing about what everyone other than the trio was doing during the DH year. Because I love me some war!fic, and other people deserve to get the spotlight for once, dammit! So, poll:

... "clairboyant" obviously being "both clairvoyant and buoyant". Must learn to spellcheck before hitting "post".
