"What did you do, Granger? Drop him in the cistern? Some say it's bottomless. Others that there's a creature in its depths."
My laugh was a bitter puff of air. "You and Frank make quite the pair. He thinks I'm Snape's accomplice--you think I'm his murderer."
He gripped my arm so hard it would leave marks. "That's exactly what makes me suspicious. All this talk around you two, that you spent so much time together. You never liked any of us much. Potter you did like, and we all know what happened to him."
"No, I never much liked you lot, and it was mutual." I paused a moment, but didn't think Draco was amenable to hearing the truth--at least not without it being vouched for. "But I have my own reasons to want to find him--among them that Frank might hold me in less suspicion. And this wrangling between us is wasting time. So I'll take Veritaserum, or submit a memory strand or subject myself to Legilimency--I really don't care which."

First, write down the names of 12 characters. Then read and answer the questions. You can't look at the questions (or click on the cut) until you write down the 12 characters you're going to use.
[I wrote them down in order of my favorite characters--which, as you'll see, was a horrifying mistake]
1. Severus Snape
2. Hermione Granger
3. Draco Malfoy
4. Albus Dumbledore
5. Harry Potter
6. Minerva McGonagall
7. Percy Weasley
8. Luna Lovegood
9. Blaise Zabini
10. Neville Longbottom
11. Ginny Weasley
12. Ron Weasley
Have you ever read a Six/Eleven fic? Do you want to?
Minerva/Ginny? I don't usually read femmeslash--I confess I'm a bit squicked by it, and I'll only read it on a very strong rec. And this pairing I've never heard of and would find hard to see.
Do you think Four is hot? How hot?
Albus Dumbledore? *squick* GreatGreatGreatGrandpaSmut is just not my thing, I'm afraid. My apologies to the MM/AD shippers out there.
What would happen if Twelve got Eight pregnant?
Ron impregnating Luna. Luna would very possibly have a vision that she was giving birth to a hippograff.
Can you rec any fic(s) about Nine?
Blaise Zabini? Hmmm. I remember bambu345 had a nice ficlet about him, "My Treasure" I actually think this character has loads of potential post-HBP, but I haven't seen it explored in the Snapecentric archives I hang around in.
Would Two and Six make a good couple?
Hermione/Minerva? Well, see, above, but I think she's be a better fit for McGonagall than Ginny.
Five/Nine or Five/Ten? Why?
Harry/Blaise or Harry/Neville
Given a choice I'd take Harry/Blaise, both because Blaise piques my curiousity (see, above) and because in general I think Slytherin/Gryffindor pairings have a spark.
What would happen if Seven walked in on Two and Twelve having sex?
Hermione/Ron with Percy walking in on them. Hermione and Ron would both go for their wands--Hermione would be faster and cast an Obliviate, then cast a Scourify on herself.
Make up a summary for a Three/Ten fic.
Draco and Neville: Neville is determined to revenge himself upon Bellatrix Lestrange and finds an unlikely ally in Draco who is trying to break her hold on him. The alliance turns to more as they find more in common than they ever dreamed.
Is there any such thing as One/Eight fluff?
Snape/Luna: I've read it--I'm not sure where. Perhaps the Restricted Section that has every rare HP pairing on the planet.
Suggest a title for a Seven/Twelve hurt/comfort fic.
Percy/Ron [ewwwwww] Tipping My King
What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted Four to deflower One?
Snape/Dumbledore slash. Well, that could explain where he got the anger for that Avada Kedavra Now, where do I go to get that image Obliviated from my brain?
Does anyone on your friends list read Seven slash?
Percy slash? Not bloody likely is it?
Does anyone on your friends list read Three het?
Draco Het? Damn right! Lots of Dramoine fanatics on my list who were actually hoping the ferret would be the subject for NaNo.
Does anyone on your friends list write or draw Eleven?
Ginny? Well, I have a ginny_weasley31 I gak'd this from on my f-list. Do icons count?
Would anyone on your friends list write Two/Four/Five?
Hermione/Albus/Harry? *cries* God, I hope not...
What might Ten scream at a moment of great passion?
Neville Longbottom: Riddiculos!
If you wrote a song-fic about Eight, which song would you choose?
Luna: Life on Mars
If you wrote a One/Six/Twelve fic, what would the warnings be?
Snape/Minerva/Ron Warnings: dubious consent, mind control or Imperio involved (the only way I could see Ron as part of the threesome)
What might be a good pick-up line for Two to use on Ten?
Hermione/Neville: "I love your way with Orchids."
When was the last time you read a fic about Five?
Harry? Yesterday.
What is Six's super-sekrit kink?
Minerva: She likes to do it as a cat. OMG, I just squicked myself!
Would Eleven shag Nine? Drunk or sober?
Ginny/Blaise... Well, wasn't it said on the Express he found her attractive? And he's supposedly the son of the most beautiful witch of her age. Both smart too. Not completely impossible. Drunk might help though.
If Three and Seven get together, who tops?
Draco/Percy: You need ask? Draco!
"One and Nine are in a happy relationship until Nine suddenly runs off with Four. One, broken-hearted, has a hot one-night stand with Eleven and a brief unhappy affair with Twelve, then follows the wise advice of Five and finds true love with Three." What title would you give this fic? Name three people on your friends list who might read it. Name one person who should write it.
Snape and Blaise are happy 'til Blaise runs off with Dumbledore? Snape then has a one-night stand with Ginny, a brief affair Ron and on the advice of Harry finds true love with Draco? ::boggles::
Title: Making My Head Spin
Three Who'd Read It? These are my friends - I wouldn't wish it on them. Ditto on who'd write it.
Mind you, I wouldn't mind a Snape/Ginny :wistful look:
How would you feel if Seven/Eight was canon?
Percy/Luna? She might acutally be one who could loosen him up a little--and they're both bright. Why not? Beats the canon pairings, Gryffindor/Gryffindor all (Well, assuming Tonks is one).
