No, I don’t care if it’s “just the overture” or “only the orchestra.” I don’t care if there’s no one technically onstage yet. Put your phones away and stop talking. The show has started.

Harry Potter characters and their reactions to covid
James
Doesn’t believe in covid. Continues going around maskless, doesn’t stay at home, pretends to have asthma when someone asks about his mask.
Sirius
Believes it’s real but doesn’t think it’s that serious. Says “it’s just a bad flu.” Isn’t opposed to wearing a mask but frequently forgets.
Remus
Caught covid early on. Suffers from long covid.
Peter
Gave Remus covid.
Snape
Wears a mask even just to take the bins out. Hasn’t been seen without plastic gloves on since 2019. Carries around a two-metre-long stick and pokes people who don’t socially distance.
Hermione
The same as Snape, minus the stick. Frequently yells at people for not wearing their mask. Makes passive aggressive posts on the neighbourhood Facebook page about people not following the guidelines.
Harry
Tries to follow the guidelines, but finds it all very confusing. Wears his mask backwards and upside down.
Ron
Wears his mask under his nose.
Neville
Hasn’t left the house since March 2020 because his grandmother is vulnerable.
Dumbledore
Reluctantly put his staff on furlough and took them off it as soon as he could. Will not adapt to home working.
Draco
Got his vaccine early because Father has connections. Thought he was invincible after he got the first jab. Caught covid one week before his second jab was scheduled.

Conversation with the authors - Part 1!
Click here to read The One: A Druna and Dravidia Story, a four-part series by @ovidialee and @solasnarealtai (wolfofwinterfell). Read below for the first installment of a discussion with the authors!
O: I’m going to say one word. Ferret.
W: I love prompts and finding ways to sort of test the boundaries with them, or explore different angles. So one day last year I received a message with a rather elaborate prompt regarding Severus and Draco. It felt entirely romantic to me, and since I firmly headcanon Severus as Draco’s godfather, that didn’t work for me. But there was a line about Draco talking to Severus about being turned into the ferret, and you and I latched onto that. I mean, obviously that’s been a big thing in the fandom for a while; it wasn’t like it was new to us. It just came on the heels of our collection about Lucius, and I don’t think we could let it go. I am glad we didn’t end up calling this Ferret when we published, though. (Also I’m laughing, but since this is text, you sadly can’t hear me.)
O: Remember when we said we were going to aim for around 2000 words? I believe we used the term “sweet spot”
W: I have trouble letting go of things, clearly. This was a hostage situation. Luna and Draco are my cohorts. Joking aside, I do have to laugh, because I have only ever written one multi-chapter fic in my life (years ago) and have only written one-shots since then. I can’t even write a paragraph with my own original characters. And then we open up our docs and just put out this novella. It’s hilarious we thought we could get this all out in a range of 4000-5000 words between the two of us. Looking back at that just makes me smile (fondly, of course).
O: Yes I straight up cackle at our naïveté. The whole process was very fluid and I love how we just went with it. One thing our readers may not know is that we wrote this series out of order. I was the keeper of the timeline, and it did morph as we kept churning out material.
W: Thank you again, by the way. Without that timeline we would have been…well, who knows where or when! Sorry, you know I like my dad jokes. I’ve never written something in conjunction with someone so cohesively, especially something that wasn’t absolutely rigid. We had points we really wanted to hit, and it didn’t really matter when we wrote that. Everything just clicked. Really the whole thing felt like a writers’ room.

Corn Flakes (the breakfast cereal) were allegedly made by Kellogs to be the most unsexy of Cereals, to make people less horny.
