I haven't written any Harry Potter fanfic since the final edition of the late, lamented ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
hoggywartyxmas fest last December. I'd run out of ideas, for one thing, and I had other stuff going on, and I thought my HP-writing days were over.
But now I've been inspired to dip my toe back in the HP waters because a) I need a fantasy distraction from the disaster ofVoldemort Donald Trump, and b) I wrote my first HP fanfic in 2008 because I had a broken foot. It seems only fitting that I embark on my second HP career on the occasion of my second broken foot.
(Foot update: I saw the orthopedist, and guess what! I now have an Air Cast boot. It's big, it's cumbersome, but it means that I can [lightly and gingerly] put my foot to the ground with each step I take. I still need crutches, and I can't move very far or very fast, but at least now I can hobble around without risking my neck and all my other limbs. It's a game-changer. I also invested in a knee walker, and while it's not very usable in our small apartment, it's quite sturdy, and I should be able to venture outside occasionally.)
Anyway, for my return to HP-world, I wrote an entry foradventdrabbles, a multi-fandom holiday fest run by the those HP stalwarts, the lovely ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
torino10154 and alisanne. There's a different prompt for each Advent day.
This fic is unbeta'd, and my HP-writing muscles are stiff, so be warned! But I had fun writing.
Title: A Yuletide Tradition
