Some of us write fanfic, some write filks ... since I am not talented in either of those areas, I am glad there are Tom Swifties to keep me amused until November. Oh, right! There IS Monday...
As Daniel Radcliff and Richard Harris were walking to the cinema cafeteria, "There might still be some of that pudding left, Dick," said Dan, spottedly.
"Fawkes donated two feathers for two special wands," said Mr. Olivander moultingly.
"We always watch Malfoy's back!" Crabbe and Goyle chimed guardedly.
"You've forgotten the magic word, Dudley," Harry said pleasingly.
"What's the password today?" asked the Fat Lady, passively.
"Ah, 'Gadding with Ghouls!' said Gilderoy gayly.
"What do you mean, a bit of whoever we're changing into?" Ron asked, choppily.
(point of order... does it HAVE to be a legit adverb? I wanted to use "clippingly" here but it is not a REAL adverb, even though it would have been more appropriate)
Just as I would LOVE to use, "Regrowing bones is a nasty business," sighed Madam Pomfrey, DioxiNucleicAcidly. (BTW DAN is an anagram of DNA, but that is crawling way too far out on the limb here... no pun intended)
"Someone's tampered with this Bludger!" bawled Fred, antagonistically.
"Dobby can only be freed if his masters present him with clothes, sir," explained Dobby, materialistically.
"But I'm a Gryffindor. The Sorting Hat wouldn't have put me here if I had Slytherin blood", Harry thought, sanguinarily.
