After a magical attempt on her life in 1877, Queen Victoria launched a crusade against magic that, while tidied up by the Ministry of Magic, saw the Wizarding community exiled to Hogsmeade, previously little more than a crossroad near the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In the years that have passed since, Hogsmeade has suffered plagues, fires, and Victorian hypocrisy but is still standing firm.
Thethe year is now 1895. It’s time to join us and immerse yourself in scandal and drama interlaced with magic both light and dark.Where will you fall?

Quote:Aldous' cheeks flushed—a rarity, really. He was not the least awkward of people, but even for him, blushes did not come often or easily. More often, though, than being called, however indirectly, for not immediately extinguishing a woman aflame.This just tickled me. Aldous Crouch in A Flair for the Dramatic.
“Oh.” Time seemed to slow as he said it, and with it everything magnified. The ticking of a clock in the corner of the room; book spines glittering as the sunlight hit them; the nervous tapping of his fingers against his cane. Callista felt a rush of affection for him. Affection, followed – inevitably, perhaps – by a sudden rush of fear.- here
Because she liked him. Try as she might to deny it to herself, it was already too late for that – because he was thoughtful, and earnest, and kind. He had noticed her; worse, he had listened to her. And if she liked him so well already, what if they courted? What then? She could not rule out that she would not surrender to it sooner or later, that she might stumble accidentally into loving him.
The room felt stifling, abruptly, and her face hot; she wished she was out on the lawn losing at croquet instead. If there were other reasons to say no to this – some unpalatable relatives, some eccentric political opinions, the complications of his controversial career or his ward, the disapproval of her family – Callista could scarcely remember them. She could see herself happy: she wanted to say yes.

Quote:Ishmael had had far too many years’ practice of controlling his expression, of affecting nonchalance, to fail at it now – but if anything on earth could make that indifference waver, it was a mention of Monty.My montmael heart <3 Ishmael in this thread
Quote:Nova suddenly looked down and found her hand around Porphyria's and though she had no memory of initiating the gesture, it was clear that she must've done so. She immediately let go of her. Then, fearing this might cause greater offense, she took her hand again as though she'd never dropped it in the first place.every November Malfoy post is wild (here)
Quote:However, Professor Griffith had not received any indication that Headmaster Black opposed this change. This, he knew, could mean a number of things:
- Professor Black trusted his ability to keep his students safe and supported ambitious magical endeavors.
- Professor Black did not trust him but he delighted in the possibility of students hurting themselves and he hoped it would get Professor Griffith in trouble.
- He had not read his notice.
- He had read it but not understood what advanced transmutational Alchemy meant and he was too arrogant to ask for clarification.
Except for the first option, any of those could be true, Samuel supposed.
He wanted to hurt someone. He wanted to hurt someone like he'd been hurting for months or years, and because their father was dead Ford was the closest approximation he had.
The bottom of Nova's stomach dropped out with the full force of an out of control horse-drawn carriage thundering down a narrow, winding mountain path.

Quote:“How could it have happened?! We never – but I never went to bed with you!” She exclaimed, because even if they had done some intimate things in that observatory; and occasionally up against a door; and once on a chaise-longue, it shouldn’t have led to pregnancy: however that happened, Estelle had been certain that the bed part of the marriage bed was a necessary part of the equation.RIP Estelle Malfoy's (non-existent) sex education
Quote:So she might not be quite her usual self, but if Angel and Torie thought that she had undergone a full personality transplant and was going to confide in either of them, they were as stupid as usual.
