We at Snape-Potter decided to revive our challenges. We won't issue them in the form of monthly themes, which could be restricting and boring, but we'll post a challenge whenever there's something worthy to be celebrated or remembered. Our first theme is one of remembrance:

Challenge: November - Month of the Dead, Month to Remember

Starting with the last day in October, Halloween, the eve of All Saints' Day, remembering the dead is the prevailing theme throughout the first two weeks of November.

( HALLOWEEN - SAMHAIN - ALL SAINTS' DAY - ALL SOULS' DAY - DIA DE LOS MUERTOS - VETERANS DAY - REMEMBRANCE DAY )

We'd like to challenge you to create fic or art to show how the end of the war is commemorated in the wizarding world. How do Snape and Harry celebrate, how do they remember their dead? How does Harry cope with Snape's death? With the fact that he survived?

DH compliant creations or AUs, anything is possible. Create your own version of the end of the war, or show a special celebration of Halloween. What part do the ghosts play in Harry's (or Snape's) efforts to communicate with the dead? Maybe Snape's brewing a Memory Potion with poppies as an ingredient. Is there a war memorial, a special ceremony?

Let your fantasy run wild. We'll accept anything from drabbles/drawbles to ficlets, drawings, vids or full length fics and pieces of art. Please post your creation or a link to your creation to snape_potter on Halloween or any time during November and mention the challenge in your header.

Most importantly, have fun!
