Summary:
“Are you going for the course?” Lovegood asked. “You have the NEWTs.”
“What course?” Draco said, then, “No, don’t be ridiculous,” when he realized she meant the notice pinned up on the board he’d been staring at: Applicants To The Introductory Mediwizard Course For The Coming Term Shall Present Themselves In The Chief Mediwizard’s Office By August 24th.
“Oh, I thought you might,” she said. “Well, goodbye.” And off she wandered again in her addled way.

Jaime didn’t like the Starks at all. He didn’t like their earnestness and honesty and prudishness, he didn’t like their cold heavy-walled castle, he didn’t like their frozen block of a realm, and he especially didn’t like Robb Stark, who had saved his son’s life and been kind to him and got him to sleep, and what business of his was it to have done any of those things?

Tywin gave her a stern look. “Watch your tongue.”
“Or what, you’ll cut my head off, like your grandson did to my father?” Arya spat at him, a cub trying to bite with milk teeth.

Jaime looked back at Robb with rage blazing through him and said, low and utterly flat, “The next time I see you, Stark, I’ll kill you.”
“The next time I see you, Ser Jaime,” Robb said, “if you ask nicely, I’ll do it again.”

Tyrion almost couldn’t imagine Father doing any of it. Except that it had worked, which justified all things.
I should note the pairing is a bit deceptive as this is primarily a story about, as the tags say, Tywin Lannister getting what he deserves. :P
With many thanks to lim for beta! <3
ETA: also thanks to lim for sharing the glorious information that once a year at the holidays Charles Dance reads things on Channel 4:
Dreamwidth accounts are now completely open and free, instead of requiring invite codes!
Why Dreamwidth is good:
- You have FOUR different privacy levels to choose from with EVERY post: Public, Private, My Access List Only, A Specific Special Access List Only. You can make as many special access lists as you want. You can ‘f-lock’ your whole journal if you want. Privacy is good!
- All comments stay on your OP, there is no reblogging. No more posts suddenly getting out of hand and running away from you, it all stays central on the OP, and replies are nested into threads! It’s like having a little mini message board on every post!
- Tiered privacy–you can subscribe to someone, and you can also grant them access. Separately. This means you can read someone’s journal without having to let them read posts you have locked.
- Put your interests in a linked list, if they light up as a link you can click and suddenly see everyone–and every community–that has that interest listed! Make friends! Join communities (comms, as we call them)!
- Communities! Which can also be locked to members only! Communities also have moderators (and rules the moderators may or may not have!), which makes them safer.
- Lots of customisation options for how your journal looks. Back in the day we used to match journal themes with our bffs or lovers!
- Multiple icons! We used to use this feature to have different icons to indicate moods/tones. Fun! Let’s bring that back. You can have 15 with a free account, and more with a paid account.
- 100x100 icons! So big! Gifs allowed! Like on AO3!
- MOOD ICONS. This is an extra icon on your posts that has a mood attached. People with paid accounts have custom themes! Mine is Great Mouse Detective.
- Paid accounts are subscriptions but if they lapse you just go back down to a free account, you don’t get your account’s functionality taken away! And likewise, the extra icons and custom mood theme are still there; all that changes is if you change your mood theme you can’t go back to the custom one until you get a paid account again. Paid accounts just give you extra customisation for how your journal looks, and help support the site, because…
- THERE ARE NO ADS. THERE IS NO ALGORITHM. THERE ARE NO SUGGESTED POSTS. NOTHING IS SPYING ON YOU.

Hermione frowned. “The real question is why the magic of Britain would be failing now, in fact.”
“That is not the real question!” Ron said loudly; he’d woken up fully by now, and Harry had too; it was starting to sink in that they’d found the problem. “The real question is, how do we fix it?”
Actually, internet activists are pretty worried about the corporatization of the internet in general, not just of fandom.
All of the oldschool DIY subcultures are facing similar pressures, both from people who want to co-opt them and from desperate people who need to gig-ify their whole lives to get by.
I can’t make other people’s choices for them, but we can build sites and communities that resist this kind of thing. AO3 is one, and it destroyed any potential market for a for-profit fic archive.
for @gameofdrarry Exploding Snap Gryffindor Knockback Jinx card, an illustration for a fic featuring forced cooperation.
In the Great Hall, he slowly and cautiously loosened the chain between Harry’s wrists, one eye on the gears, until he thought he saw a faint flicker and yanked them five links tighter again with a jolt of panic. It wasn’t that much range of motion, but better than nothing. “Right,” Harry said. “Hermione said you’d better order me to do things.” His voice was still steady and even, as if he wasn’t afraid at all, standing three feet from a spell meant to slaughter him, in chains, in the house of his—well, his second-worst enemy. By a wide margin.
What’s Draco supposed to do when the war is over and no one is cleaning out the manor cellars? Why, do it himself of course. Which means that when he finds (what remains of) the prisoners, a nest of snake eggs, and a booby trap rigged to kill every muggle-born wizard in Brittain, he’s on his own. Oh, who am I kidding, of course Harry is going to help. This fic features ominously and perpetually turning gears, a loyal and interfering snake named Coil, Draco in 18th century regalia, and Harry Potter pretending very badly to be held against his will. And that’s just the beginning of the story.
The fic collection has been made and will be revealed on the first day of MegOP Week (July 5th) to start accepting submissions. There will also be another post linking to it and explaining how to submit your work to the collection.
Please be aware that the AO3 collection will be moderated for reasons specified in the FAQ below.
The following rules will also be posted in the FAQ/Rules section of the collection on AO3:
