Boo!

Oh wow, people still write here! .... Can't believe it's been more than 4 years now since I wrote an entry here on LJ. The only reason I'm back (well, not really back back, but back as in logged on) is because I was talking about fanfiction yesterday at work with someone from London, and that made me think back to the time when I had a real blast ( Read more... )

ramblings, fanfiction

Oh hello!

The answers is that we read the ending carefully and noticed there was no body and no portrait and unanimously decided that he sneaked away unseen and was not DEAD at all.

Heya :D

Oh, I see! Now, that makes my life easier... except that I cannot remember much else from the last 3 or 4 books, having only read them once. Guess if I really want to pick up writing again, it might be a good idea to reread the books again.

I can certainly tell my brain's not what it used to be, I think I'm actually... getting old!

NOw that's the icon I remember!

I'm not sure that reading the books is required, but it might help. ;-)

What Shiv said.

Also there's some amount of Hermione doing research and figuring out a way to bring him back from the dead, time travel to an alternate timeline in which he survived, time travel back to save him, and/or ghost fic (he stuck around as a ghost and Hermione meets and falls in love with him as a ghost).

Hey Autumnmist, my favourite beta reader :D. Nice to see you're still about as well!

Cheers for the tips... hm, now I only need my days to be 30+ hours to squeeze everything into them I want to get done!

Either the last book is ignored or it's AU or the FF-writers bring him back somehow... (I actually think, he deserves a second chance, for all he had to go through and the good he had done!)

There's also my problem of Dumbledore being in the story - didn't he die in book 6? I think I need to reread the books just to get the gist of the story again, there were so many people that died!

I'll most likely go with what Shiv said, that he escaped death somehow.
