    Not equivalent, but odd nonetheless.

    Well, there are some who subscribe to the school of thought that your avatar should be, as the name implies, a representation of one's self, rather than a visual clue as to what might go in the "Likes" section of your profile.

    It can muddle first impressions, occasionally... until you let go of the notion that a person's avatar has anything to do with their gender or appearance in any way, shape, or form.

    Of course, that's me in my avatar, but I'm only still using it because A: When people switch names and avatars, I tend to not know who the fuck they are, and I doubt I'm high-profile enough here for some people to connect my identity to a new avatar, and B: Laaaaaaazzzzzzy.

    I don't care what someone's avatar is, as long as it's cool enough to save to my avatar folder... because I collect them... shitloads of them... because I'm as big a digital pack rat as I am in analog... because I have problems. :colbert:

    I shall be brief and in paragraphs. I am also drunk.

    A) That is stupid.

    B) Agreed, sometimes it can be deceiving, but with experience you should be able to take an educated guess.

    C) Get the fuck out, please list your choice of music!

    D) Mine is available at any Google-station. If you have an urging.

    Rock out.

    In all actuality we do not know if Fleur is a quarter Veela or not. We just know her wand has a hair from one of her Grandmother's which means that Fleur is at least a quarter Veela but could be more.

    We also know that the Bulgarian National Quidditch Team has a squad of Veela cheerleaders.

    We also know that Fleur and Bill had a son and it is unknown if he is a Veela or not.

    Despite the wiki(and i checked) there is nothing that says what part Veela that anyone is other than my first paragraph which says basically nothing.

    I have a question: If a veela and a werewolf become mate, what will their child be? A werewolf or a veela?

    Sunshine and starlight answer: the Veela will be too pure to have anything but a Veela child.

    Wordhammer's reality check: depends on how you define 'mate'; for the werewolf, he might consider infecting a hottie to run with him to be a proper courtship. If we're talking Remus & Fleur's granma, the child will be a witch or wizard, unless and until poppa comes home drunk and decides to either eat the tasty morsel or have him join the wild hunt with him.

    I'm thinking about something obscure like birdform by day, wolfform by night, or a she-wolf who have wings and can conjure fireballs by her claws. But I like your answer.

    Please don't write this.

    On the off chance you do, please post a link so I can avoid it like the plague.

    Don't worry. I will never do that. My writing is so terrible that it could makes eyes bleed just by glancing.

    Considering werewolves who get pregnant in their wolf form during full moon gives birth to highly intelligent wolves, who the fuck know. >_>

    Glory to the Awesome that is Harry/Fleur!

    So, now to the reason why I necro'ed: Need people to comment on my long term plot for my story in WBA (Magnate). And yes, it is H/F. Or at least, I plan for it to be. Here's what I have so far:

    Set in an AU without a prophecy. Voldemort wins. The Potters survive but are (divorced/separated) while James gets custody of Harry when he was two. Relations between the J/L are cold and only recently do they reconnect again. They're a stepmom in there somewhere that doesn't play too big a role aside from being the one who lets it slip to Harry that she isn't his mom. Drama, drama, Harry deals with it. Oh, I'm forgetting he has a younger half-brother he's close with despite all of this going down.

    Anyway, anti-Voldemort elements eventually rebel (and get crushed sometime during his 2nd year) eventually resulting in James, Lily and Stepmom all dying while Harry and his brother are abroad studying at Durmstrang. Left with no other family and no one to run to (I mean, the government does want them dead to teach other would be dissenters a harsh lesson), Harry decides to take it upon himself to keep him and his brother alive and cared for no matter what. He comes out of the situation placing Family above all else and is willing to do anything to keep them safe. Takes studies even more seriously (he already was before parents die).

    He grows up being the provider and has to mature very quickly to deal. During his 4th year, he's recognized for his exceptional talent in charms. While not considered old enough to be a competitor for the Triwizard Tournament (in France), they think he would be excellent as "support" for their other candidates. The way I've set it up is so that each school knew of it in advance and decide to give their champions as much student help (since professors aren't allowed to interfere) beforehand to sway things in their favor (hopefully).

    This sets up Harry and Fleur meeting, starting a friendship, but not getting into a relationship. At this point in time, both of them aren't interested/in different relationships(?) (this part I have not decided yet). Triwizard ends, France wins, Voldemort rages at his country losing.

    Next few years so increasing escalation between British and French relations, with Voldemort just looking for a good enough cassus belli so that the other European countries don't get involved. By the time he attacks (in 1-2 years), he's played several countries against each other diplomatically so that no one's willing to interfere. He puts into a power a pro-pureblood puppet Ministry much like the one in Britain. Half breeds who do not work or support the new regime are hunted down. The Delacour parents are caught and executed (because getting into Voldemort's shitlist is pretty much an irrevokable death warrant).

    It's at this point Harry faces a huge moral dilemma. Does he get actively involved in fighting the regime, using whatever influence he has accrued while in hiding, or stay safely in exile, praying that Voldemort never gets to him and his brother? Eventually, he realizes Voldemort's aspirations won't end in France as soon as he picks up on signs that the Regime is moving on Spain, taking care to isolate it like they did to France.

    He begins to work among the other European countries to form some sort of alliance to counteract this emerging superpower. Thus, he is hard at work fixing Germany's relationships with everyone else (them being the main backers of Grindelwald a few years ago has not been forgotten) all the while starting up his own version of the Order to run a covert war in advance and buy the other countries as much time as possible.

    Fleur joins this order of his and...

    That's all I've got, considering I've only written 5 chapters (25k) of it. :sherlock:

    You know, you could have just revealed all this gradually in WbA.

    As ideas go, this looks like a pretty well thought one, but if the Magnate is your first fic, there's a chance you'll burn out before you get that far, esp if you want to include all that political stuff. There are people who started with novel-lenghth fics right of the bat, but most seem to stick to shorter forms for a time before attempting longer stories.

    I'm fairly certain a decent amount of that was revealed slowly in WBA...

    eh, I’m not so proud as to think plenty of people have read my story or that they would wish to read it just to be able to comment on my plot.

    Also, this is my 6th story (not counting the previous Magnate a few uears ago which is now almost completely different).
