My fanfic dreams.

valis2I've had two bizarre HP dreams in the last week.
Dream #1: Remus and Severus were in some sort of Soviet-based AU. Party officials had found out about magic, and decreed it unlawful. Anyone practicing magic will be sent to Siberia/repressed/imprisoned/etc. All wizards and witches are forced to either try to escape underground, or take up the only job they are allowed to take up, which is Magician. And by Magician, I mean birthday-party Magician, with rabbits and hats and a fake wand.
Remus and Severus decide to take the latter approach, but Severus is sick and getting sicker, and Remus is forced to earn what little money he can with his routine. He gets shabbier and shabbier. They travel from town to town, the situation worsening. Eventually they are performing in a small city with a theater, one completely accented with light pine-colored wood. Remus is there to set up, but Severus is completely unable to perform; Remus insists that he rest and not exert himself.
Unfortunately, Remus runs into a Party member's son after the performance, who happens to be a wizard. The Party member's son can use magic, because everyone else will cover it up for him, considering his father's very high standing. So he pulls out his wand and taunts and harrasses poor Remus, who can't strike back, and because Magicians are pretty much considered trash and vermin, no one will stop him.
Dream #2: Severus is on a boat with that guy from the newer seasons of Clean House (Matt Iseman), you know, the guy who is as big as a football player. Severus is a wizard, and the Clean House guy is a Muggle. Anyway, Ben from Lost is on the boat, and he pulls out his wand and shrinks them both, inadvertantly shrinking a lifeboat that's behind them as well, and he callously knocks them into the ocean. The Clean House guy swims, pulling Severus along, and manages to get them both into the lifeboat, and then rows to the nearby beach. They get to shore, and run toward a house. Eventually, after a bit of Stuart Little inventiveness, they manage to get to the top of a dresser, which has a pitcher of oil on it (er, for a lamp!!), and they are overjoyed. However, Rip Torn comes in and starts rummaging through the drawers, looking for ancient Chinese coins which have a mysterious spell attached to them. Because they overhear Rip muttering to himself, they know the secret plot behind Ben's nefarious attempt to do something nefarious, but they're only six inches high and they're not certain how to go about fixing the situation. Rip drops his wand behind the dresser, and makes a break for it, I think, and they think they'll use his wand to get back to normal.

Date: 2008-02-25 04:59 am (UTC)I'm certain that I could come up with more imaginative scenarios, but I felt a rather strong sense of urgency, considering that you were so worried about your future ability to dispose of clutter while vertically challenged that you suggested necromancy.
In my heart of hearts, however, I am quite certain that the show would attempt to work around your height adjustment, should Severus's spell prove unable to free you from your six-inch status. Perhaps "Matt's Micro-Cleaning Tips" could be a permanent feature, with you demonstrating the best scrubbing techniques, aided by your trusty cotton swabs.
