Summary: 

After a lecture, Harry and Draco met a frightened woman, telling them that her entire family is scared to death of their new house.

But Harry and Draco wanted to take a break after a traumatising case. Maybe it's just natural causes and the house isn't haunted, right?

Louis Tomlinson Greeted as Hero After Setting Up TV at Glastonbury Festival to Screen England’s Euro 2024 Soccer Match

As it turns out, England's game against Slovakia was a legendary nail-biter.

By Gil Kaufman

There are two things the English cannot live without: soccer and Glastonbury. The legendary summer festival that took place over the weekend drew 200,000 to see sets by headliners Dua Lipa, LCD Soundsystem, Coldplay, SZA and Burna Boy, even as England was fighting for its life in a thrilling elimination game against Slovakia in the Euro 2024 soccer tournament.

According to the Guardian, former One Direction star and solo singer Louis Tomlinson livestreamed the game in a festival campsite on a flat screen TV taped to a trolley fueled by a generator on Sunday morning, drawing hundreds to the site to watch the match. The move came after festival officials announced last week that the match would not be shown on Glasto grounds to avoid clashing with main stage performances.

“It’s the second screen I’ve bought,” Tomlinson told the Guardian when the game went into extra time after England’s Jude Bellingham knotted things up with a thrilling 95th minute equalizer; Harry Kane scored during extra time to send England to the quarter finals.. “The first got cracked. I wasn’t going to take credit for it because it looked like we were going to lose in normal time, but now that we’ve equalised I’m happy to.”

The Guardian said that Tomlinson bought the gear earlier in the day and was originally planning to watch the game in the VIP backstage area before spotty reception forced him to find another location near the Pyramid stage. Tomlinson, dressed in a vintage England windbreaker said, “it was a little touch-and-go at times because the signal kept going in and out… luckily we got the win and we pulled it off.”

Check out the scene at Glastonbury below.

2022 in Fic

I am feeling rather bashful about posting this, but fuck it. I was tagged, and I shall answer. When I look back at 2022 in fic, all I can think of is you, friends.

Perdition - LCD is the fest that got me into fandom. @celilasart, thank you for being so welcoming and patient. I would have been alone on an island without you.

Rebel, Rebel - @ladderofyears, Jasper, and @daisiesfordragons cheered me on, beta read, alpha read, and brit-picked. I felt so loved and cared for--that was my intro to fandom, and I immediately knew I was in the right place. @anaxandria-writes bound it beautifully, and I'm still in awe that I have two of my fics literally sitting on my bedside table.

Grey Eyes and Lies - I got paired with the one and only @veelawings for RBB and got to go crazy/get to know better someone I really admire. Then I struggled since it was my first dark!fic and @m0se helped me to the finish line. I also met @shealynn88 while writing this one, so it's extra special.

Pictor - My dreams came true and I got to work with @crazybutgood, AND I got to keep the physical artwork!!! It didn't get as many kudos and what not as my heart thought it deserved, but @corvuscrowned helped me get past it. I am so grateful for both of you.

The Island Assignment - @lqtraintracks showed me that my writing has the potential to go beyond stereotypes with a simple change of phrase or scene. I'm still mind-blown every time you touch anything I write.

Erised (revealed NEXT WEEK, links to collection) - I was so scared because I tried something new, but @tackytigerfic helped me feel better about it. @skeptiquex beta-ed, and now I scrutinize every sentence I write [in a good way].

Kinkuary 2022 - This collection has @thebooktopus's fingerprints all over it. My first fandom friend! I was so nervous about writing smut, but then I got to beta her incredible Tonks/Charlie fic. It was so empowering and inspired me to write this collection.

Penitent - Where the priest kink so many of you know me for started. I love y'all for tagging me on all the priest kink stuff to this day <3

Green, Blue & Royally Screwed - My first fic to get a bad review in the bookmarks. It stung! @basicallyahedgehog @phoebe-delia were there to soothe my ego and throw things/elbows with me. I adore you two. This I think was the first time I wrote as it was beta-ed, and honestly, it would not be what it became without @curlyy-hair-dont-care, goddess of fandom. Really, truly.

A Dream & An Allen Wrench - A shorty, but this was the first time I poured my heart on paper. I've done it twice now, and the second time was much more difficult. It was as easy as breathing the first time because it was for @geesenoises. I treasure you, friend.

Sex, Love and Skateboarding - Taught me that I need to read squick lists CAREFULLY lol & I wouldn't even be in this fandom without my BELOVED @greenmegsnoham. Cheers to prancing around fandoms together in the coming year <3

A Kingdom or This - I got to play in Wolfstar, write with a partner, AND meet @second-sister. I've been a horrendous partner, but getting back into this fic is the first thing I'll do after I get over this wretched cold!

I started writing without knowing that it would bring me to this community and more love and support than I ever expected. Thank you for making my year. & though it's not exactly fic, I also want to send so much love to @pineau-noir, @phd-mama, @digthewriter, and @sugareey-makes-stuff from the local crew - your friendship means so much to me.

On to 2023.

If you're feeling the love - consider yourself tagged <3

Summary: Harry had always been obsessed with dragons. It was one of the reason he had studied them. And when the opportunity came to study draconic creatures in the wild on a deserted magical island with his mentor Charlie Weasley and his friend Neville Longbottom, why wouldn't he take it? If only he knew what he would encounter on his journey...

Auch ohne den Vysor ist der Schrecken eines defekten Smartphonedisplays gar nicht so erdrückend

Es ist mal wieder ein Smartphone-Display endgültig kaputt, nicht mein eigenes und Ersatz für das alte Gerät steht eigentlich sowieso schon bereit, aber an die Daten des nun defekten Geräts möchte die Besitzerin schon noch drankommen. Vor allem die Chatverläufe der Messenger sind hier das übliche Problem und das automatische Backup der Bilder auf das NAS habe ich peinlicherweise auch immer noch nicht eingerichtet. Vysor ist hier leider nicht vorbereitet, das wäre jetzt eine schnelle Lösung gewesen. Aber billige Ersatzdisplay gibt es für das inzwischen recht alte Gerät problemlos zu kaufen, auch ohne Versand aus China und Hängenbleiben beim Zoll. 26 Euro inkl. Versand scheinen mir nicht zu viel als Lösung für das Retten von Daten des Geräts, also bestelle ich ein solches ehrlicherweise explizit als minderwertig beschriebenes Nicht-Originaldisplay. Es liegt sogar das notwendige Werkzeug bei.

Nun hatte ich bei exakt diesem Gerät, als es erst wenige Wochen alt war, bereits das Display getauscht und daher wusste ich, dass das eigentlich recht einfach machbar ist: Nicht nur Apple baut Geräte, die auch von innen ein Genuss sind. Nach der simplen Demontage – die Verklebungen sind vom ersten Display- und einem späteren Akkutausch auch ohne Heißluftgebläse noch angenehm lose – wird mir erst bewusst, dass das neue Display ohne Rahmen kommt. Bei dem Modell gibt es einen schönen Schiebemechanismus für das Display und beim ersten Tausch hatte ich ein Originalteil direkt mit verklebtem Rahmen gekauft, was den Tausch sehr unkompliziert gemacht hat, aber auch kostspielig war. Das war mir jetzt zu teuer und ich habe eben ein LCD- statt AMOLED-Display ohne den Schieberahmen gekauft. Ich muss also das sowieso schon zersplitterte und verklebte Display in Einzelteilen herausbrechen, dabei unschöne Scherben auf meinem Schreibtisch verteilen und stelle dann fest, dass ich mir die gesamte Demontage der Rückseite auch ganz hätte sparen können: Wenn man sowieso die OLED-Schicht und das Displayglas mit Gewalt herausbricht, kommt man auch direkt von vorne an den Flachsteckverbinder für den Anschluss des neuen Displays. Nun denn.

Da ich beim Herauslösen der verklebten Scherben nicht wirklich geduldig war, passt das neue Display nicht sauber in den Rahmen, aber das ist mir in dem Fall egal, ebenso dass die Qualität des LCD-Displays im Vergleich eher erbärmlich ist und der Schiebemechanismus jetzt klemmt, denn ich will ja ohnehin nur einmal an die Daten heran. Also klebe ich es gar nicht erst mit dem mitgelieferten Kleber fest, rette die Daten und lege das geleerte Gerät mit losem Display für sich immer mal wieder ergebende Sondernutzungsszenarien in die Schublade.

Erkenntnis: Ein Displaytausch ist gar nicht so schlimm, aber ein Originalersatzteil mit Rahmen macht einem das Leben deutlich leichter und das Ergebnis besser.

Happy Valentine’s Day to the amazing @celilasart who runs the terrific LCD fest and discord! They are kind, talented, and generous. We all love you 💛💜

Yes anon! Another fandom legend who does so much behind the scenes, @celilasart deserves all the love. LCD is one of my favourite fests and I’ll never forget the first time I came across her art while reading Little Compton Street. Go check her other works here!

[lostdrarryfics]

Hello! Hoping you can help with this semi-odd ask! I saw gorgeous art in the LCD fest this year (The Shape of Us by Fantalf). In my mind, there was an accompanying fic, or maybe a past fic, based on the same movie (The Shape of Water). I truly don't know if I imagined the fic based on that evocative art, but I figured this was the place to ask. Thanks in advance!!

Hello! We couldn't find anything that matched your description, but your ask reminded us of Silver Scales In Pools of Green by Archaic_Nepenthes (26k, E). Could that be what you're thinking of?

White, Blonde & British

Prompt: “Red, White & Royal Blue”, 2023, Matthew Lopez Prompted by: Moon_Peach Author: Anonymous Word Count: 40,058 words Rating: Explicit Warnings: Mentions of death, drug and alcohol use and abuse, homophobia, racism, discrimination, brief mention of marital SA

Notes: This was truly a labour of love and I had such a great time writing it! I've watched RWRB no less than 50 times and read the book over three or four times at this point and every single time, all I can think about is how drarry-coded Alex and Henry are. This fic is HEAVILY inspired by Casey McQuiston's work and combines some of my favourite parts from both the book and the movie, adding back in some quintessential characters like June, who were unforgivably erased from the narrative for the film. Thank you to my partner E and my good friend T for the support and encouragement throughout the entire process, I couldn't have finished this without you guys. And a HUGE thank you to the LCD mods for their hard work in running this spectacular fest!

Summary: Prince Draco Malfoy is known all over the world as “The Modern Day Prince Charming”, ask anyone - well, anyone except for Harry Potter, first son of the Indian president and (self) sworn rival of said stuck-up, snobbish prince.

Elgato bringt Starfield-Themen-Streaming-Ausrüstung heraus, die epische Gestaltung und erstklassige Funktionalität für dedizierte Fans und Streamer gleichermaßen bietet. Wie in einer kürzlichen Ankündigung mitgeteilt wurde, wird Elgato am 31. August eine limitierte Starfield-Themen-Wave 3-Mikrofon und ein Stream Deck veröffentlichen. Dies geschieht einen Tag vor dem Early-Access-Release von Starfield und ist wahrscheinlich ein strategischer Schachzug, um die Vorfreude auf das lang erwartete Spiel zu nutzen. Elgato enthüllt das Wave 3-Mikrofon und das Stream Deck mit Starfield-Themen. Beide Geräte präsentieren Starfields charakteristische Farben und Designelemente. Das Wave 3-Mikrofon verfügt über eine robuste Konstruktion, eine Geräuschabschirmung und Clipguard-Technologie. Das Stream Deck bietet 15 LCD-Tasten zur Anpassung von Streaming-Workflows. Der Preis für die neue Ausrüstung steht noch nicht fest. Weitere Starfield-Zubehörteile wie Xbox-Controller, Headset und Konsolenverpackung sind bereits erhältlich oder werden bald erhältlich sein. Elgatos Starfield-Ausrüstung im Detail Die herausragenden Merkmale des Wave 3-Mikrofons im Starfield-Design umfassen Robustheit, einfache Einrichtung und Hightech-Funktionen wie eine Geräuschabschirmung und Clipguard-Technologie, die Audio-Spitzen verhindern soll. Das Stream Deck hingegen zielt darauf ab, die Arbeit von Streamern nahtlos zu gestalten, mit 15 anpassbaren LCD-Tasten zur Steuerung verschiedener Aufgaben während der Live-Streams. Es ist erwähnenswert, dass beide Geräte im Einklang mit Starfields Ästhetik stehen und die charakteristischen Farben und Designelemente des Spiels aufweisen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjaCelKsz0s Keine Preiskündigung, aber was können wir erwarten? Obwohl wir uns alle darüber freuen, diese neue Technik in die Hände zu bekommen, hat Elgato bisher keine Preise für diese schicken neuen Geräte bekannt gegeben. Angesichts der aktuellen Preise des Wave 3-Mikrofons und des Stream Deck, die beide zum Preis von 150 US-Dollar verkauft werden, können wir jedoch davon ausgehen, dass die Starfield-Themen-Versionen in einem ähnlichen Bereich liegen werden. Bereit für mehr Starfield! Das ist aber noch nicht alles! Neben diesen Ankündigungen sind bereits weitere Starfield-Zubehörteile wie der Xbox-Controller und das Headset erhältlich, und im November wird eine Starfield-Themen-Konsolenverpackung für die Xbox Series X ihre große Premiere feiern. Mit so viel Starfield-Merchandise, das bald auf den Markt kommt, haben die Fans des Gaming-Giganten einiges zu erwarten. Zusammenfassend Während wir die Tage bis zum Early-Access-Release von Starfield herunterzählen, wird Elgatos neue Streaming-Ausrüstung dein Game-Streaming-Erlebnis in ein neues Spektrum katapultieren. Als Gamer und Content Creator, was denkst du über diese neuen Geräte? Freust du dich darauf, diese Starfield-inspirierte Ausrüstung zu deinem Gaming-Setup hinzuzufügen? Lass es uns wissen!
