blamebramptonI have some! And the close-eyed reader of the following will spot that I have no imagination and should plan these things ahead rather than listing four in the dying hours of the open period and exhibiting all the imaginative scope of a whelk ;-)
For anyone who ends up wondering, a pademelon is a small wallaby-like animal, often very fat. They will steal your sandwiches if you have a picnic at Wineglass Bay. Here's one I found on the internet:
And do take a read through the longlist over there: it's FANTASTIC, full of genius ideas. Which I am resisting. Watch me!
#13
Location(s): Antarctica, in the British-, Australian- or New Zealand-controlled territories.
Era: Post-Epilogue
Scenario: As the ice shelves go sliding off into the sea, even the most committed Climate Change denier is finding it hard to pretend there's nothing wrong. But climate scientists are baffled: their models say that none of this should be happening until 2100 at least. Was the science wrong? Or is there something or someone else in play? Chief Auror Harry Potter sets out to investigate and finds himself in a land where you need to touch something every few metres to dispel the static electricity, and penguins develop strange ideas about your boat.
Three Additions: politics, the Gulf Stream, geoengineering
Squicks: Ginny-bashing, schmoopiness, frequent declarations of love, mpreg, boys or men acting like girls in a bad teen film, pet names, the blond and the brunet, overt Americanisms (background ones because the writer is in fact American are fine and easily overlooked), sexual violence of any description, chan, extreme sexual acts, tortured angst of much emodom, and similar.
Maximum Rating: Preferably R, but if you feel you want to go wild and include an NC-17 sex scene, feel free, I will probably just fast-forward through the sex because I am that pure of soul!
Prompt submitted by: blamebrampton
#39
Location(s): Northern Tasmania
Era: Post-Hogwarts, post-War
Scenario: After the war, Draco Malfoy is in search of a career and Aberforth Dumbledore is in search of an apprentice. Convinced that the future of goat farming lies in recapturing bloodlines exported throughout the Commonwealth, Aberforth sends Draco out on a mission to investigate, record and secure the future of rare goat breeds.
Meanwhile, Harry Potter is bored to death with official functions and endless press conferences. After qualifying as an Auror, he decides to take a much needed Gap-not-quite-a-year and do some tramping around the more scenic parts of the world. High on a hill, he meets a lonely goatherd ...
Three Additions: Goats, pademelons, boat
Squicks: Schmoopiness, frequent declarations of love, mpreg, boys or men acting like girls in a bad teen film, pet names, the blond and the brunet, overt Americanisms (background ones because the writer is in fact American are fine and easily overlooked), sexual violence of any description, chan, extreme sexual acts, tortured angst of much emodom, and similar.

#131
Location(s): Estonia
Era: Post-Hogwarts, post-War
Scenario: Just get away from it, they said. Go cycling around the Baltic, they said. No one will bother you there ... They are bloody idiots, because anything can happen on the long and winding back roads of a country where potato is the vegetarian option and only Finns can understand the language. And just when you're about to chuck the whole thing in and either head home or waste yourself on cheap Russian vodka, he appears.
Three Additions: folk singing, cycling, cobblestones
Squicks: Schmoopiness, frequent declarations of love, mpreg, boys or men acting like girls in a bad teen film, pet names, the blond and the brunet, overt Americanisms (background ones because the writer is in fact American are fine and easily overlooked), sexual violence of any description, chan, extreme sexual acts, tortured angst of much emodom, and similar.
Maximum Rating: Preferably R, but if you feel you want to go wild and include an NC-17 sex scene, feel free, I will probably just fast-forward through the sex because I am that pure of soul!

#132
Location(s): Tuscany, preferably Siena or Firenze
Era: Post-Hogwarts, post-War
Scenario: Sane people take Grand Tours. They see sites, are exposed to Great Culture, and follow paths that have been trod for generations. Where Harry went wrong was in letting Ron make their travel plans.
Hermione is doing her best to keep things from descending into all-out madness, but Harry is on the verge of wishing they were back in the Forest of Dean when he spots Draco Malfoy on the other side of the piazza.
Three Additions: comedic language difficulties, Great Art, Chianti
Squicks: Schmoopiness, frequent declarations of love, mpreg, boys or men acting like girls in a bad teen film, pet names, the blond and the brunet, overt Americanisms (background ones because the writer is in fact American are fine and easily overlooked), sexual violence of any description, chan, extreme sexual acts, tortured angst of much emodom, and similar.
