1998. After a seven year term as Minister of Magic, Regulus Black has been resoundingly defeated. Once a celebrated war hero, the end of his final term was marked by several high profile and as-yet unsolved murders. New Minister Aaron Diggory has promised reform, but those changes have yet to be seen. The new Order of the Phoenix may not be content to wait on Diggory's politicking, especially when there are still Death Eaters causing trouble...
The children born just after the war — a baby boom such that the wizarding world had never seen — have finished their Hogwarts schooling. Some have their sights set on new careers, others are content to enjoy a life free of responsibility or danger — for now.
REFRESH exposes the dynamics of victory, family, school, work, and everything in between, in an AU-exploration of what the wizarding world might be like had both Voldemort and Dumbledore fallen in 1980.
WANTED Death Eaters (especially ladies), Hogwarts Professors, Vincent Crabbe, Colin Creevey, Dedalus Diggle, Benjy Fenwick, Daphne Greengrass, Augusta Longbottom, Xenophilius Lovegood, Mary MacDonald, Alastor Moody, Peter Pettigrew, Rita Skeeter, Alicia Spinnet, Emmeline Vance, Ginny Weasley, Molly Weasley, Percy Weasley, Blaise Zabini — and more!
