Next Gen Winter Fest

We hope everyone's caught up on everything while the fest was still anonymous. Today is REVEALS! or, essentially, time-to-stalk-that-one-author-or-artist-you-thought-was-absolutely-fantastic. (That's basically all of us. :D) It also means that from now on you are free to respond to your comments and repost your fic and art to your own journals and archives. We'll be going through the entries shortly to add in the usernames.

Once again, thank you to everyone ♥ You guys are fabulous and we mods have been floored with the quality of the submissions. Best fest ever? We think so! :D

( *drumroll* )

If you hang around for a few days, there'll soon be a feedback post up, where you can tell us what was wrong/could've been done better/what was really good/etc. We'd love to hear from you. ♥

I loved the prompt too, it gave me a lot of freedom about how the story should go :) Also, I’d like to thank nerak_rose for betaing this for me, let’s face it, if she hadn’t taken her time to point out all the things that needed to be done so that this turns out the way it is right now, I think this would have been half a disaster…yes just half! :p eh, yeah I know, I shouldn’t say it, but it’s the truth XD so thanks a lot to her for betaing this fic for me! I appreciate, a lot ♥

Medium or word count: Some 13684-ish words
Summary: In which Harry goes a bit mad at the thought of having Al's young man's ferrety father stop with them at Christmas, Al has Cunning Plans to make use of the impending social disaster, Thoroughly Nice Scorpius serenely sabotages the prospect of unpleasantness, Teddy howls – with laughter, James and Lily and Rose are Stroppy In the Extreme, Draco does his overly-dramatic martyr turn, and the remaining Black-Sisters-as-Were dispose competently of everyone's errors.
Notes: I am indebted to B and to BB for editing work and encouragement, and, as always, to the VCH, Geograph, the Ordnance Survey, Hubert Pragnell, West Somerset Council, the National Trust, SPAB, English Heritage, and any number of real ale breweries and pubs. I am particularly obliged to the prompter, and trust this shan't disappoint too greatly. From the nature of the prompt, and based upon the principles advanced in the DMLE Training Manual that prefaces this account, it seemed to me proper that Albus Severus and Scorpius, although by no means conspicuous by their absence, should be best seen through the eyes of their families, as it were almost in silhouette.

Title: Our New Traditions
Creator: mrs_jack_turner
Prompt Number: #121
Rating: PG
Pairing/characters: Hugo/Scorpius, Albus, Louis
Warnings/content: Highlight to read *NONE*
Medium or word count: ~2250
Summary: Just because House rivalry doesn’t bother Hugo or his friends in other Houses, it doesn’t mean that the rest of his family agree with him.
Notes: Thanks to E for the beta. To alley_skywalker, I hope this lives up to the prompt. There isn't as much Ravenclaw!Louis as I was hoping to add, but with any luck the really good relationship between Hufflepuff and Slytherin will make up for it.
