    Lily, dear, I hate to break it to you but James is not leaving you if you're the one being kidnapped. Non-nonsensical drama on top of Lily being taken by Death Eaters...

    What is it with young girls and having lots of x's in their username?

    I shall ask my sister... but I doubt that she could give a reasonable answer.
    If I remember correctly then the 'x' in their name means, that they are unique or something like that. It is the last remains of the Great Emo Empire...

    They think it looks pretty - that's pretty much it as far as I know.

    That doesn't actually sound that terrible. It's an intriguing plot bunny, and could be decent in the right hands.

    Concept wise...eh maybe with different people. Though I wasn't adding it because of they idea so much as the grammar.

    I added it because there are grammatical errors and if they can't get the summary right then the story is more than likely crap.

    Though I do suppose it doesn't fit the Worst part, maybe just Crappy.

    Harry is "Sal", Ron is "'Ric", Ginny is "Ela", and Hermione is "R'ena". The writing is decent from what I bothered to brush over, but it's rushed and seemingly aimless. A typical case of an interesting idea done poorly.

    How does one get Ela from Helga? Though I always did wonder how one got Dick from Richard. Might be the same principle.

    Not Meeting The Weaselies by Reyrayankar
    Poor Harry was bumped into a wall by Dudley and Vernon, but that led him to discover platform 9 3/4. And also because he had not wasted time and had not met the Weaselies. Slight AU and maybe Harry's a bit OOC. P.S. Probably no Romance in begining.

    1984Torture is impossible to fake » by Ellie is a freak name
    You read 1984 by George Orwell. Can you see a vampire as a thought criminal? Twilight vampires? And how well does the Party read minds? How will Edward cope with that? How can they even see each other? angst. eventually EXB. violence. little OOC for 1984

    I don't know what it is, but somehow the concept of a 1984/Twilight crossover fills me with indescribable, gibbering horror.

    That's the 'Twilight' component of the 'story'.

    Harry Potter and the Diamond Blade by Christian Cadet reviews
    What if rather a tri-wizard tournament it was a quad-wizard tournament? But who is this new champion from this new school? Will Harry be able to confess his feeling for Hermione? And will this new champion become a member of the Golden Trio?

    The first chapter also contains this wonderful piece of prose:

    I suspect it's "Monkey-at-a-typewriter syndrome." Give the universe long enough, and every idea, good or bad, will be come-up-with.
