Is it wrong to want to beat you with a 3 day old mackerel and laugh at this at the same time, **Arnold**?

Laughing at my purple prose _is_ wrong. Beating me with a mackerel… not so much. Please make an appointment with my secretary.

A very good post-Hogwarts fic is called “After the End” and can be found at [www.sugarquill.net](http://www.sugarquill.net). The authors are something like Arabella and Zsena. Again, that fic doesn’t take OotP or later into account.
