Update Number 36!
The pickings this week were very, very small. The mods cowered together, expecting the wrath of their readers and the Dark Lord, who would no doubt be furious at the lack of mad skillz of finding new works that emphasize his truly...astronomical abilities and self. It seemed death would be the only option and they awaited the coming of the green light with fear and terror of the afterworld that awaited them. Would there be endless bagpipe solos? Is it really Christmas all the time in heaven? How do they get pimentos into olives? Suddenly a beacon of light shone down, blinding the mods with its brilliance. The light took on the form of flo99, though it took awhile to see her visage through all the moving black dots in their vision. She nudged the current findings with her toe and said, "What the hell is this? I suppose I'll have to help you losers out this week." "Oh, thank you, blessed one who comes from the light," one of the mods was heard to say. For some reason flo99 took no offense despite the mod talking to the wall. In another flurry of light that left the mods blinded once more, she took off back from whence she came. The only evidence left behind was a file that stated 'New Fics'. And so it is with deep gratitude that I thank the mods and flo99 for this week's contributions! We're always accepting of recs!

I'm not 100% sure if this vid was actually made by the real Emma Watson. I've been told it was but enh. This IS the internet. In any case, that's part of the reason why I'm reccing this week's vid feature. The other part is because it's time we had another slash video featured.
Pairing? Voldemort/Harry.
Originality? It's Sims. Yes, Sims. Starring Voldemort and Harry doing karaoke as an alternative ending to DH. Apparently Miss (maybe pseudo) Watson thought this would make a better alternative and I can actually HEAR a lot of you agreeing.
In any case, I strongly encourage all of you to watch the ENTIRE video as the last bit just cracked my shit up. Everytime they play this song at work, all I can think of is this vid because of that part. And now I pass along that fun bit to you!
