An older deb should propose to someone on the leap day - fed up with waiting, she takes matters into her own hands!

Character A answers a Lonely Hearts, not knowing that the Lonely Heart sender is their sibling. Short plot, but kinda funny and pretty open for plenty of awkwardness should Character A and B ever find out! Or worse, anyone besides Character A and B finding out.

Canonically, magic interferes with electricity and that's why no one uses phones or iPods or whatnot at Hogwarts.

Muggle Studies class learning about electricity goes on a field trip off the Hogwarts grounds and leaves their wands at school so they don't break anything. What happens next? Up to you~

The Parent Trap but make it Victorian Era! Long-lost twins meet each other at Hogwarts and befriend each other and decide to switch places upon leaving for the Summer holidays in hope to get to know their estranged parent. Bonus points if they've have very different class / living situations from each other.

Awkward ghostly love triangle: Character dies while either engaged or very newly married and sticks around as a ghost, but their partner isn't interested in doing the Herbert & Winnie Fudge thing. The partner goes on to court someone else, which the ghost is totally fine with — really, it's inconsequential — honestly, they hardly even think about their old life anymore, they're too preoccupied with spirit things anyway! They're living their best afterlife all on their own!

They're also kind of stalking the new romantic interest, though.

A character consults a naming seer to find out what their name/their children's names/their partner's name/whatever should have been and sets about insisting it be used instead.

A spinster/older deb has an ongoing ~romancey letter exchange/ mutual pining with a gent who has gone abroad for a period of time. Actually, several gents. It's become sort of a thing... at this point if she hears you're destined for the continent she's likely to show up and flirt her way into a letter romance.

All well and good, until one of them comes back to England and she has to decide whether or not to act on all their letters.

Even worse: he might not be the only one of her long-distance beaus returning this season...

A woman marries a man and finds out only after marrying that he's a widower and literally never speaks of his first wife. Everyone else does, but even when other people bring it up he just... does not talk about it. She gets a little too into trying to figure out why. (Did he murder his wife? Is he still in love with her? Honestly WHY WOULDN'T YOU MENTION THAT BEFORE WE MARRIED).

We need more people to be casually cursed and just living with it.

Like magical tuberculosis, you might visit a particular spa in Bath a little more frequently but it's just a fact of life.

A young woman, who in order to keep her virtue her parents convinced her that she was under an unbreakable vow to be chaste- and she’s a nervous wreck because she also doesn’t understand the types of things that would trigger it.

A family said to be cursed so that they bring bad luck to the people around them.

A character is cursed to fall in love at first sight. Why is that a curse? Because the person they fall for is not similarly effected, and now they have to languish through unrequited feelings while trying to win them over. Also they probably come on too strong at least a few times and scare the other person off, making the whole relationship more difficult than if they'd just not fallen in love in the first place.

This is actually the plot of a Greek movie, ngl xD BUT it's very dramatic and emotional.

A sailor who is lower middle class or higher working class is in love with a woman and promises to marry her after he's back from sailing and he's made money. While he's sailing, the girl's family marries her off to someone wealthier. When the sailor guy returns, he's heartbroken and marries her younger sister out of spite.

Lots of angst and unrequited love potential and they can be tied to J. Alfred Darrow too!

Filling out this Seneca Bridgerton survey gave me ideas... Basically, if Seneca had a squib child, she'd actually be 'merciful' and have them obliviated and then arrange for the child to be adopted by muggles. Which gave birth to this idea:

A squib character who is actually the "deceased" child of a pureblooded family. They were obliviated so they wouldn't remember who they actually are and grew up as a muggle, but recently they started getting their memories back...

In a similar vein, a character whose secret profession is helping prejudiced magical families "get rid" of their squib children. They find suitable muggle homes for the child and take care of the obliviating process.
