There are brief flashes of wit, and songs aplenty, but rarely do the characters do like so many fics say and have proper banter.

She then bullied me into making this thread.

Is anyone interested in such a thing? I imagine we'd follow the example of the HP read alongs, and go chapter by chapter, or a few chapters at a time, before discussing them.

Basically, I see two ways of going about this,

the first is just straight WW2; Axis v Allies, we play out the entirety of WW2, and call the game when Europe is in control of one or the other. Players will have to stick to historical factions, and at least close to historical focuses. (This can be pretty freeform, if you want to do something special lmk.)

The second is, more free, we basically play until 1945 or further,...
