Finnigan's OOC

So, the 7th Anniversary of the Battle of Hogwarts* is only two weekends away! Per Mercy's excellent suggestion, I'm thinking a Hogsmeade Village Fete on the Saturday, with some / all of the following:

- Tug of war
- Pet show (Rolf? Luna?)
- Face painting (Dean? Bryony?)
- Shop/business stalls (Astro Apothecary? Inside and Out? McLaggen Magical Sports? Pinky's Ink? Sweet Nothings?)
- Activity stalls / activities (Gobstones? Duelling Club?** Chess?)
- Quidditch / flying displays (think Red Arrows) (Terry? Roger? Marcus? Gwenog? Viktor? Aidan? Finbar? Richard? Oliver?)
- Performances (Ben?)
- Beer tent
- Games of chance (made more magical, but similar to coconut shy, tom bola etc)
- Post Owl Trials (like sheepdog trials)

Then, on Sunday, something more sombre, commemorating the fallen, etc. Not sure what yet as the Wizarding World doesn't exactly seem to have churches. Maybe a moment of silence, or maybe we'll steal that scene from the movie***, with everyone raising a light? I'm also thinking of doing a special Battlescars as well, but not sure of the details yet. Ideas welcome!

If you've got any ideas, comment below! If you want to sign your characters up for any of the things mentioned above, you can do that too - or else I will put up an IC post as well in the next day or too.

*Anyone got a more concise name for that? I've seen Victory Day used, but it's not canon as far as I know.
**Could the Hogsmeade/Finnigan's tournament be part of this?
***Is it mentioned in the book? I can't remember

Hello all! It is a new month, it is a new activity period and, best of all, it's the last day of work before a long weekend (at least for me). I thought we'd kick off with a plot brainstorming post.

1. Post the name of any character you'd like to be involved.
2. Comment on other people's comments with plot ideas! These can be small plots, big plots, plots that involve your characters, plots that involve other people's characters, plots that involve no characters at all. Obviously, you don't have to play out all (or any) of the plots - though it's encouraged - but maybe they'll spark new ideas.

Enjoy!
