capitu.There will be a limit of 4 prompts per person again this year. Other than that, please feel free to go wild! Leave any holiday or new years prompts! Just, please take a moment to refresh your memory on the Fest Guidelines before submitting your prompts.
There are many different ways to prompt! Feel free to leave full prompts/scenarios, random words/keywords, picture prompts, song lyrics, etc in the comments!
We will compile them and have new prompts from this year as well as the lists from past years available for your inspiration!

Would prefer Slash (*cough* Draco) but, writer's preference.

Prompt: Harry and Draco are on Auror Duty on Christmas (or maybe new year?) It's a slow night. Or a busy one, going from party to party toasting 'Happy Christmas' or 'Happy New' Year with the partiees after they solved the fuss they were called for in the first place, getting drunker and drunker (and flirtier and touchier!).

Date: 2013-08-17 02:33 am (UTC)Scenario: Harry found himself adrift after the war, and drew into himself. He and Ginny broke up (he might have called it off or she might have finally had enough, you decide) and he found it uncomfortable to spend time at the Weasleys. Staying away became easier and he has become a loner.
Everyone else seems to have their own lives to worry about, and they don't register what's going on with Harry. Draco, somewhat isolated as well, is the only person who notices. Specifically, he is baffled by the fact that he can't piss Potter off, no matter how hard he tries. As Christmas approaches, he decides to do something about it.
Can be eighth-year Hogwarts or after they leave school (perhaps a chance meeting piques Draco's interest).

Date: 2013-08-17 02:45 am (UTC)Scenario: Christmas at the Manor just isn't the same. Voldemort's memory haunts them all. Lucius is a broken man. Narcissa feigns strength, but Draco can see her crumbling. Draco escapes by staying out of the house as much as he can. Best friend Pansy to the rescue. Author's choice whether she brings the joy of the season to the Manor or drags Draco with her someplace else (to a house party, to another country, whatever).
no subject
Date: 2013-08-17 03:21 am (UTC)Pairing: Lucius/Narcissa
Category: Het
Prompt: Their first Yule as newlyweds at Malfoy Manor. Is it happy? Stressful? Romantic? Difficult? Do they spend it alone, or are other Blacks and/or Malfoys involved?
no subject
Date: 2013-08-17 03:21 am (UTC)Characters: Prof. Grubblyplank; Hagrid; assorted animals
Category: Gen
Prompt: Tradition holds that animals can talk at midnight on Christmas Eve. Can they? Or is the meaning of the tradition something else entirely?
no subject
Date: 2013-08-17 03:21 am (UTC)Pairing: Hermione/Severus
Category: Het
Prompt: Their first Yule together (when this happens is up to you -- could be shortly after the war or years later they finally get together). Hermione wants to have the full-on Muggle blowout: tree, sugar cookies, piles of presents, mistletoe, egg nog, caroling, Christmas pudding, sending out holiday cards (perhaps even making her own!). Severus isn't so sure about this nonsense. How does it all go down? Does she soften up his attitude, or does he rein in her slightly manic desire for everything to be picture perfect?
(Please keep them both in character -- no mushy!Snape or doormat!Hermione)

Category: Gen
Prompt: The (mostly) dead and the (often) forgotten: how do they celebrate Yule?
no subject
Date: 2013-08-17 03:30 am (UTC)Scenario: The professors at Hogwarts, in an attempt at building bridges after the war, invite all students to share something special they did when celebrating the season (whatever their beliefs). Some students (e.g. Harry) don't have great memories, but learn / have learned to make their own.
