ROTFL, Part II
Re: never cut twice
Occasionally I like to hunt through FFnet and read the summaries because some are so bad they're funny. Like this tag I've seen on multiple summaries:

Something Grim This Way Comes
www.fanfiction.net/s/2666277/1/
Ruskbyte's new fic.
"You aren't planning on reaping any students, are you?"
"Not unless it's their time," replied Grim.
"And if it is their time?"
"If dey gotta go, dey gotta go."

"Well, in that case... Grim, if you really don't want to be a student, and as I suspect forcing you to leave will not be within my abilities," considered Dumbledore thoughtfully, "then I suppose we'll simply have to treat you as one of the children's pets."
"What!"
Dumbledore nodded, as if this peculiar conclusion were perfectly logical, and began to make his way back to his place at the staff table. "Yes," he concluded, "you can move into the first-year Gryffindor boys dormitory as Mister Potter's pet, or I suppose we should call you his familiar."

"AAH! GRYFFINDOR! GRYFFINDOR! PUT HER IN GRYFFINDOR, LIKE POTTER WANTED!" the hat screamed at the top of its non-existent lungs, it's voice filled with unbridled terror. "PUT HER ANYWHERE, ANY HOUSE, JUST DON'T PUT ME ON HER HEAD!"

You know, personally, Id think youd be a lot nicer, to the worlds only supplier of Dementor-based wand core parts. Did you know in many branches of magic theyre stronger than phoenix feathers? But I suppose I could try and set up my own wand-making business.
No, no. Mr. Ollivander pleaded. Thats quite alright. Ill be nice. Please dont experiment in wand design. This is the only planet Earth we have. Theres no do-overs on it.
I disagree, James said with a grin. I think Ive gotten a do-over here.
Yes that is true, Mr. Ollivander agreed. He shook his head. I always figured there would be an Ollivanders until the end of time. I just didnt think that would happen in my lifetime.
Oh fine, Harry conceded. I wont do any more work in wand design.
Oh dear.

Oh, I know what it is, and that it's a fusion. It's just that the idea stopped me cold for a moment.
And yes, it's hilarious. I found myself wishing there were a second chapter.

Re Grim...
Ya know, the show did two episodes with a Harry Potter knockoff, so the xover isn't too far-fetched.

I was just re-reading This Means War! and I happened to read it off Jeconais' site rather than the copy I keep on my PC. I was rather surprised partway through the 1st chapter to come across an illustration.
And rather a ribcracking one at that. You'll have to scroll down a little but I think you'll see what I mean.

"Ginny and Hermione usually take care of polishing my wand for me. He grinned a lazy grin Its such a good feeling to know that its in such capable and gentle hands.
Cant help you either Professor came Nevilles soft voice that seemed to carry. My technique wouldnt work for anyone here, because I need significantly more room than anyone else, its not so much a wand, as a staff and being so much bigger and thicker, it not only needs two hands to control, but I need a completely different polish for the knob on the end.

Re: A New World
How about something for the season?
"When the snow falls and water turns to ice,
Then shall come the Lord of the Frozen Wastes,
Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men.
He is the Rider in Red, girdler of the world.
From the north he comes,
Bearing joy to the good,
And a sign of their fate
To the wicked.
Every home he visits,
He is in all places at once.
For he is the son of Yog-Sothoth,
The All-In-One, the Key and the Gate.
None can turn aside his eye.
None can deny his passage.
And all the world trembles
When tiny hooves strike their roof."

Chapter 6

The door to the office swung open, allowing the headmaster of Hogwarts to step in. Following closely behind him, albeit with obvious reluctance, was Harry. The pair made their way into the room without speaking, waiting until Dumbledore rounded his desk and settled down into his plush chair.
"Well, Harry--" he began, motioning for Harry to seat himself as well, but was cut off.
"Can we make this quick?" Harry interrupted brusquely. He folded his arms across his chest and remained standing, the Snitch-sized black sphere bobbing gently in the air just above and behind his right shoulder. "I'd like to get to my dormitory before the boys accidentally set off the nukes I brought."
Dumbledore looked at him with some confusion and asked, "Nukes?"
"They're a type of Muggle shoe," the young wizard replied after a moment. There was not any hesitation in his answer that Dumbledore could detect. He did seem somewhat bemused by his answer though. "Usually associated with sportsmen."
"Ah."
Re: lol
Ah, Backwards Compatible -- nope, it doesn't spiral into a crapfic, in fact it goes places you might not expect. Still not done yet, but damned good. Someone brought it up in a recommendation thread early in the year, and after reading the extant material I pound the ff.net page at least once a week looking for new installments.

And yeah, that's a nice little passage, surprisingly funny in a fic that isn't funny at all.

From How Boromir Didn't Die:
Quote:
Both looked back towards the hall as laughter sounded, in time to see Boromir emerging from one of the doors. He caught sight of the pair almost immediately and meandered over to them. My lady, he said with a slight bow as he drew near, surely it is not appropriate to be alone with a man like this.
As Spades buried her face in her hands, Hamilton shook his head. She has chaperones, he muttered, ignoring the foul language emerging from beneath small hands. Show him, short-arse.
Boromir looked scandalised, but backed off as she rose. My chaperones, he says, she growled. You mean the knives Captain Brooks doesnt want to know about?
Yeah. Those. The one you used to gut that ugly dude particularly. Its my favourite, he added as an aside to Boromir.
It was indeed a nice knife, Boromir appeared to agree. This could, on the other hand, have been because a demonstration swipe had come, in a very controlled manner, far too close for comfort to ridding him of the problem of providing his father the grandchildren he seemed to want.
