[Fest Entry:] By her Side {Bonus Entry}

2021-02-16T07:54:14Z

Posted by: smirkingcat

Title: By her Side
Author:corinalannister
Prompt: Lucius would follow Narcissa anywhere - Even the light side
Rating:PG-13
Word Count : 1.432
Summary: What they were about to do was absurd, it could mean the death of them, by either side. He only wanted what was best for his family, the outcome with the highest odds of survival as it were, whether that was for the side of the light, or the side of the dark mattered not to him.

[Masterlist:] Thank you wisp_of_a_spook & corinalannister !!!

Posted by: smirkingcat

Thanks to the amazing wisp_of_a_spook who wrote the very interesting story At Her Command!

Also my apologies to corinalannister who WORTE A FANTATIC STORY By her Side;
that I failed to see on time, as my e-mail program was tripping me over. I am very sorry, corinalannister!

I am two chapters in and damn not only is that story hot, but also a very interesting perspective!

edit: I read over the second story as well: and boy, Lucius comes across so amazingly just in the first few paragraphs!

I Hope you enjoy it as well, if you do please leave feedback for the authors (please if you do not wanna do it, do it for me anyway because i am that eternally grateful)!

Also, I hope to see you all there for 2022! And I hope we will be able to have a big blast!

[Mod-Post] Valentines Extravaganza 2021

2021-02-14T20:41:09Z

Posted by: smirkingcat

Dear Community,

this years fest will be really short, and I want to apologise to you all for that.

I was insanely busy the last couple of months, and most likely was not as supportive a mod as I could and should be.
Also i think I was very lazy with the promotion and the ask for help because I just was so overwhelmed with my own RL.

However we do have ~~one~~ two fantastic storyies, that I hope you all will go and check out and leave supportive comments. And next year, I hope to be able to fulfill my duties as a mod better and be there for all my participants and those who want to be, create something on my own, and also manage to create more excitement for the fest!

On that note, I hope to see you all next round for 2022!
I hope you will keep a spot in your fandom heart for the amazing pair of Narcissa and Lucius Malfoy, and I wish you a good year.

All my THANKS to the amazing creator who stuck by this fest, and who created such an amazing story - the reveal will go up by the end of next week!

Happy Valentines Day!
