Convenient Plot Devices

No: HPFGUIDX 43676

There I was. Actually plotting out a Harry Potter story. Which given
the glacial state (movements in Alaska notwithstanding) of my writing
pace should be finished sometime in the next two years and I just
started laughing.

Does anyone else realize how easy JKR has made it for people to do
anything and everything in her universe? Aside from killing Voldemort,
of course. There's a spell or device for everything. Need to know
someone's innermost thoughts? look into their pensive. Need a few more
hours, use a time turner. Want to sneak around? Don't worry, there's an
invisibility cloak. Need to do something? Create a potion or spell. I
feel like Chuck Jones might have felt when giving the Wile E. something
to do, need a tool? Simply place a 'ous' or something after it to give
the thing a vaguely Latin feel and go with it.


This is better than the Hellmouth. Nothing is out of bounds.
