Yay, minifest!

OK let's think. How about

Pairing: Harry/Draco
Prompt: Christmas fancy dress party
Additional prompts: Some kind of joke about pulling a cracker?
Mood: cheesy, romantic, funny

edited because I have just received ALL THE FANCY DRESS FIC I COULD EVER EVER NEED <3

Pairing: Harry/Draco, plus any other characters / pairings in the would be great alongside
Prompt: Can we prompt for ART specifically? I would really really love art of Harry and Draco at a fancy dress party. It would make me so happy I might explode. And it could be a teeny little sketch or a MONSTER 40 PAGE EPIC FANCY DRESS COMIC.

In my mind the theme of the fancy dress is not Christmas, just random costumes.

[drarryisgreen]

I'll post this as an ART only prompt.

[birdsofshore]

Prompt: How does portrait Snape celebrate Christmas?

I would love it if he is his snarky and disagreeable self.

[capitu]

Oohhh! NICE.

I wonder if maybe he's hanging on Harry and Draco's home? lol

[birdsofshore]

Pairing: Harry/Draco

Prompt: Christmas Day: Draco has over-indulged on the sprouts and the Christmas pudding. He has wind and he is mortified. Harry is delighted for an excuse to tease him.

I am thinking established relationship fic, with them possibly having dinner with Lucius and Narcissa, but if you can find a way to have them get together for the first time over a bout of flatulence, then go for it. O.o

[ashindk.livejournal.com]

Lol! This could be so much fun to write!

[birdsofshore]

Pairing: Author's choice

Prompt: Character A's owl is out of action, so they use a robin to carry their Christmas post instead.

I have an idea that art of this would be lovely, or an epistolary fic with lots of romantic letters being exchanged, but really, go wherever you like with it.

Nice!

[bloodconfetti.livejournal.com]

Pairing: Fred/George/Ginny

Prompt: A heinous cold attacks all three of them on a Christmas-time morning, and so they stay cuddled in bed together, Ginny in the middle, red noses and all, and try to cheer each other up with jokes. Cuddles encouraged.

[bloodconfetti.livejournal.com]

Pairing: Dean/Seamus

Prompt: They both accidentally pick each other for a 24-day long Secret Santa/Father Christmas, but know who has picked them the instant they open their first gift up, which first leads to sillier gifts, and then rapidly changes into flirty/romantic gifts.

[bloodconfetti.livejournal.com]

Pairing: Charlie/Neville

Prompt: Knitting a broom cozy, and scarf for each other respectively.

[bloodconfetti.livejournal.com]

Pairing: Draco/Oliver

Prompt: Oliver takes Draco on a (newly discovered) ski trip - Draco's nervous, Oliver is over-zealous, lodge cuddles are expected.

[lightofdaye]

pairing: Harry/girl (suggestions: Pansy, Luna, Parvati)

prompt: Harry's Christmas stockings are not full of presents but worn by his girlfriend.

[lightofdaye]

Paring: Harry/Ginny

prompt: They still have some time before they're due for Christmas lunch at the burrow. Just enough time for Ginny to try out the new toys Harry gave her...

Snape/Lupin post-Marauder-era

During Christmas celebrations, Remus catches Severus spying through the windows at Godric's Hollow (a la The Little Matchgirl) at the happy Potter family. Can Remus give Severus enough incentive to turn away from the love he lost and find a future with the love he doesn't know he has?

[p-for-polkadots.livejournal.com]

Aww. I don't know whether to :( or :). Probably both for this kind of fic or art.

[shy-of-reality.livejournal.com]

Prompt: With the rest of the family asleep, the brother and his witch can't help themselves from having sex in front of the Christmas tree

Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents on the tree

[drarryisgreen]

[drarryisgreen]

[josephinestone.livejournal.com]

LOL.

I love this.

SORRY!

[drarryisgreen]

My internet is being dodgy--so I thought it kept on not publishing my prompts--then there were SEVEN. So I deleted three. Apologies for being an idiot!

yearning, insecurity, love conquers all

[amorette.livejournal.com]

Flagsty romance and happy ending!! :D

Mini Fest Prompt #1

[vaysh]

Pairing: Draco/Albus Severus
Scenario: Nobody knows about them. Nobody can know about them. On Christmas Eve they meet on a snow-covered field near Malfoy Manor.

Re: Mini Fest Prompt #1

[drarryisgreen]

Sigh. That's beautiful.

Mini Fest Prompt #2

[vaysh]

Pairing: Harry/Draco
Scenario: Celebrating the Winter Solstice.

Mini Fest Prompt #3

[vaysh]

Pairing: Neville/Blaise
Scenario: Herbology Professor Neville thinks he's straight. Blaise, who runs the Three Broomsticks after Madame Rosmerta retired, happens to disagree and wants him. Badly. When Neville spends Christmas holidays at Hogwarts, he decides to give this gay thing a chance. Blaise is pretty irresistible, after all.

Re: Mini Fest Prompt #3

[amorette.livejournal.com]

OMG YES :D I love this idea! And the pairing is so saucy and cute. Arrogant Blaise with sweet Neville!

Mini Fest Prompt #4

[vaysh]

Pairing: Harry/Draco
Scenario: Voldemort won. Harry, Draco and the Order of the Phoenix celebrate Christmas in times of war.

Re: Mini Fest Prompt #4

[amorette.livejournal.com]

O.O

Yes. Yes. Someone write this. Yes.

Harry's Date

[oakstone730.livejournal.com]

The whole Weasley clan, as always, is gathering for the holidays (Christmas or Solstice or New Year's). Ginny's date is Neville - last year it was Harry. Harry needs a date to bring to save face. Who should he bring?

I would prefer no Weasley!bashing, and a happy-for-Ginny&Neville-sad-for-me-Harry, but it is writer's preference.

Re: Harry's Date

[amorette.livejournal.com]

Omg this has so much potential for laughs, tears, and hurt/comfort! This is pretty much a spectacular prompt! You know I'd turn it into H/D if I had time to claim for this fest!
