Jan 04, 2014 20:52

Today is day twenty-seven. Marian is the Disney Character for today. She is from Hercules.

TITLE: Megara Malfoy and the Forteenth Anniversary
PERPETRATOR: malfoyforver
SUE-O-METER:
(awful)
COVER/BANNER ART: It is a clip of the writer's avatar. It is a black and white picture of two fingers, each with a face drawn on them and an arm each to make it look like the fingers are taking a picture together.

FULL NAME: Megara Malfoy
SPECIES: She's Draco's daughter.
HAIR: Didn't notice anything particular.
EYES: Didn't notice anything.
MARKINGS: Nothing specific.
POSSESSIONS: She hasa friend named Moira.
CONNECTION TO CANON: She suggests instead of doing a play about Harry Potter's adventures that they do one about the three sons fable. (You know... if you've read the book that contain the tail you would know that theatrical productions are considered bad luck at Hogwarts.) The students leer at her because she is Draco's daughter. She of course gets her idea approved because she is the only artist in the club who is creative. “The memorial service began by the choir singing a few Latin hymns, Megara expertly playing the harp with Jasper on the harpsichord, and then Professor Prince directed the Macbeth song "Something Wicked this Way Comes", which was a subtle tribute to Voldemort's rebirth and his second reign after that. Megara sang along softly at that. It was one of her favourite songs.” Harry of course has a conversation with her and she gives him a whole speech about not being a murderer. She's rather snippy.
ORIGIN: “Companion to the Penetrator of Darkness. This is Megara Malfoy, illegitimate daughter of Draco, and she is at the end of her second year. It is May 2nd, 2012 and the war commemorative services are about to begin. TWOSHOT, COMPLETE.”
SPECIAL ABILITIES: She is the only member of the “United Artists' Club” that comes up with good ideas.

NOTES: This one kind of feels likea very mild “Author's Tract”. Perhaps it wouldn't feel that way if it didn't feel like Megara was the only one coming up with good ideas. She's so preachy about the whole Pureblood thing and not being a murderer to the point she is highly condescending, not to mention such comments felt out of place. But then so does the animosity aimed at her because of who her father is.

Also, I took a gander at the Suethor's profile. There is a conversation between Umbridge and Hermione which is completely disturbing.


SAMPLE:

Professor Prince waited for all the members to arrive before she shut the door. They sat everywhere in the darken classroom: on the chairs, on the desks, on the pillows, on the stage.

"Today, class," she said, her black eyes surveying the classroom, "is a crucial class. In two weeks it is May 2nd, the fourteenth anniversary of the Battle of Hogwarts, of the final battle of the Second Wizarding War that proved victorious, with astonishing losses. Every year on that date, the United Artists' Club - the choir, the visual artists, the actors - puts on acts commemorating it. We have done so since 1999. Now, does anyone have any idea what to do?"

One by one the artists - mostly Ravenclaws, but with a Slytherin, two or three Hufflepuffs, and five Gryffindors - gave suggestions that were, in Megara's opinion, more bland the one from the others.

Their parents would probably be featured in the various skits and festivities, thought Megara, but hers wouldn't. Hell, she didn't even know what had become of her mother and her father and the skull brand on his left forearm wasn't something to be proud of, frankly. They were after all celebrating the Death Eaters' defeat. She raised her hand.

"Yes, Megara?"

"Isn't it a bit, er, unoriginal to perform Harry Potter's adventures?"

The Gryffindors gave her glares and one of the brutes mouthed Death Eater spawn much? Professor Prince gave the five of them a silencing look and turned to Megara. "Please do explain further, Miss Malfoy."
