Hellooooo, there, darlings!
Missed me? *this is where you say yes and nod furiously and try to look sincere, LOL! Also, squeal at will... ;)* Oh, damn, it's no use, is it? I guess most of you never noticed I left, because I post so rarely - BUT - those of you who did - I'M BAAAACK!

London was glorious as always (I'll make a separate post about that) - and The Harry Potter and the Cursed Child plays are definitely a thing to see (it's just not something you can read about and dis at will because seeing it is a totally different experience than reading about it and I'll argue with you about that until we're both blue in the face *picture feisty grin on a muddy face with a few teeth missing*). I'd definitely see them again in a heartbeat if I was offered a chance! They're just bloody adorable, that's what they are! :D That Ron... seriously. *big smile* And Scorpius, the show-stealing Malfoy! So, that was my Cursed child pimping - no spoilers without a warning, just like I promised! - and now to some serious promoting/pimping business:

- Our beloved hp_nextgen_fest will be back with us shortly (well, time is kind of relative anyway, but the fest's importance can't be overstated!) - so I can't jump at the chance to promote it fast enough - I mean just look at this adorable banner - who could resist, seriousyl?!:



come join hp_nextgen_fest!

- In case you're not aware, there's a new fest open that sounds interesting if one is a lover of music - and I am - and a Potterhead - blimey, I'm that as well! So, without further ado - please check it out and I hope you feel like giving it a go:



Aaaaand I think this is it from me before I disappear into the night. I'm kind of buried in e-mails and messages at the moment, so I apologize, if I won't be able to reply to all of you very soon - but I'll do my best to get back to you as soon as I can. I missed the fandom and you all! :)

And it's my Ronnie!!! :D I swear that it's been an age and a half since someone made me a lovely picture of Ron to flail and "awwww" over (with one noted exception!)! :D So the coolest of them all, my bestie philharmony - who's an honorary member of the elite club of Ron-lovers - drew me some pretty art - and not only one, BUT TWO! :D

First, is what I picture to be my school-bound Ronnie, all adorable freckles and looking a little lost with too big and a tad worn out clothes who are clearly not latest fashion. He's all big blue eyes and looks a tad miserable, and I just love how adorable he is. *wants to adopt*

Oh, but the second one... the second one is all fiery hair and clear blue eyes - exactly the colour I picture him having! - and I'm telling you Hermione never stood a chance when this pretty boy towered over her! (And neither did Harry... or Draco... they're just afraid to put that in a children's book, ha!)

Go leave the lovely girl some love *begs shamelessly* - me likes a lot!

THANK YOU DARLING, IT TOTALLY MADE MY DAY! :D

... it would probably look something like this. Dear capitu, I'm certain your waffles looked better! :D Mine... erm, don't.

Oh, my, I'm so busy that I haven't managed to boast some more, imagine that! ;) Namely, my wonderful daleah made me some fabulous icons of a growing up Hugo (!!!) my new fandom love, and they're really gorgeous, check it out:
( Adorable little Hugo a.k.a. Marauder 2nd generation in the making )
( Hugo Weasley, age 11, me thinks )
( Thoughtful Hugo, growing up )

Aren't they great? They totally are! :D Thank you, daleah, dearest, you really know how to make a girl's day special! :)
