Summary: Harry and Snape are snowed in together for Christmas.

Things to think about/ideas:
- Are Harry and Snape mad about this, or do they care at all? Did they have someplace they were each supposed to be instead of being stuck together?
- Where are they snowed in together and how did this happen? Was this a natural occurrence, some sort of magical accident, or did someone like Dumbledore orchestrate them being stuck together?
- Is anyone else stuck there with Snape and Harry? Ron? Draco? Someone hurt or unconscious?

Have fun with it! I just wanted to write up some fun Christmas prompts! As a side note: since it can still be wintery in February, I think this challenge would also work for Valentines day. Snowed in for Valentines day, lol. Snape would be royally ticked off about that!

Summary: The killing curse had an unintended consequence on Harry in that he is no longer able to speak or write English. Instead, he is only able to Parseltongue to communicate.

Required:
Harry's only form of communication is Parseltongue. If he tries to write, it becomes Parseltongue. If he tries to speak, it's only Parseltongue.

Optional:
-Harry can't understand English.
-Harry sorted into Slytherin

Extra points if:
-Snape picks him up instead of Hagrid
-Snape learns some Parseltongue
-"Severus" sounds close to the Parseltongue for bat.

Actual linguistics not required, just have fun playing with the language and the difficulties it brings.

*Extra extra points if you can find my old account and this (very much unfinished) story

Summary: (my first challenge so be kind please!) Snape is Harry's biological father (I figure a potion could let two men have a child), but Tom Riddle is his other--unknown-- parent. Raised by Snape, who fully believes Dumbledore about the prophecy, Harry grows up thinking he has to kill Voldemort or be killed. When he finds out his target is actually his own father, how does it affect his relationship with the only parent he's ever known?

Summary: Sometimes Hogwarts hosts a summer camp for a week after students leave for end of term. What the camp is and is about is up to you. Harry wants to spend one less week at the Dursleys so he stays.

Ideas:
- They need older students to stay and help run camp.
- The camp is to learn fun magic skills not usually taught in the term.
- The camp is for Muggle raised kids.
- The camp involves field trips.
- The camp is for Quidditch or other magic sports and hobbies.
- The camp is for first time prefects to be trained.
- Kids at camp don't sleep in the house dorms.
- The camp isn't for students but for pre Hogwarts students.
- Dumbledore isn't heading or in charge of the camp.
- There are non-Hogwarts adults that also volunteer for a day here or there.
- It's a career preview type of camp so kids see what adults do for work.
- Harry's friends attend too... Or they don't.
- Since it's camp and not school rules are different.

So many possibilities.
