A/N: Needing to clear away some writing cobwebs and to help with some writer's block for a fest piece, I decided to take a couple of days and play Bingo. Many thanks to the Potterverse for having a plethora of places where I can get ideas. As you can see, I had quite a few cobwebs to clear away (points up at word count)—and that's just a week's worth whilst writing the fest piece, too. Gadzooks, I was on a tear. Due to the size, this is a chaptered fic, just so you know.
