I was considering beginning another fic following the premise of Harry accepting the new Minister's offer at the end of HBP.

Instead of using the plot bunny to make the fic into another Auror!Harry fic, it will have conflict. After all, the Ministry is obviously suffering crippling corruption from what we've seen in the seventh book.

Fortunately, Harry has the foresight to make a condition, the Minister must sack Umbridge, which is promptly done. However, Harry is unpleasantly surprised to learn that the Ministry is heavily factionalized. There are Death Eaters that frequent the place, diehard Fudge supporters, and a slew of officials that have their own agenda that either want to kill him or manipulate him.

Then to his horror, Harry learns that his own fellow trainees are on some of the aforementioned official's payrolls, and must weather attempts on his life, etc.

The thing is, I am horrid at creating political schemes. Does anyone have a knack for them, and is willing to help flesh out my ideas?

 

Yay! No need to type much. I already posted an idea like this a while back. It's here: http://forums.darklordpotter.net/showthread.php?t=818
