Something that I once believed impossible has occurred.
Now, I think I may have mentioned to at least some of you that I've finally managed to get my sister, Leah, to read the Harry Potter books. She has read all four of them, and seems to have enjoyed them quite well. However, you must understand how amazing it was that she actually read them in the first place; I'd been going on about them for a year before she finally sat down with Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. "They're kiddie books," she complained. "It's like Sabrina the Teenage Witch, only it's a boy." I repeatedly attempted to explain otherwise, but to no avail; she stubbornly rejected my claims that the books were actually very good.
But now, however, she's not only read the four books, but she even finished reading The Arithmancer's Apprentice, which is almost unbelievable in itself, since she's also been snubbing my love of fan fiction for some time as well.
But her reading my story isn't the shocking part.
The shocking part is that she's now writing her OWN fan fiction.
Really. I was stunned. She won't archive it anywhere, but she's allowed me the right to post it on my blog when she's finished with it. It's a short spoofy satire, spawned from a discussion about the fact that every possible pairing in the Harry Potter fandom has been created by some sick mind out there. Leah came up with the thought of Voldemort/Olympe Maxime, and everything else just sort of went from there.
By the way, does anyone know if a Voldemort/Olympe fic does exist, aside from my sister's spoof? Wait, no, I'm not sure I would really want to know about it...
Anyway, I'll post it here when it's finished, though I rather wonder if it's not one of those things that only Leah and I will find truly hilarious. In any case, be afraid. Be very afraid. Hehe.
