OK. I've read all your answers, and going back to the original thread my choice would have to be Alex Hughes, without a doubt!!
Sensitive, caring, and civilised.......but maybe with Snape's dress sense.
Love the whole black thing he's got going on! Especially the boots and the coat!
Colonel Brandon is a bit too soft for my liking, David Weinberg is a big jerk, Phil Allen would probably be second on my list, love his sideburns, ummmm.......... this could go on for ever.....Franz Anton Mesmer, for his sensitive hands would be a must...............Ed the painter is pretty cool, although he's got a bizarre taste in checked trousers....Jamie is nice and sensitive, although I don't like the 'tache much........Judge Turpin...gold tight trousers....
No, Alex Hughes! Even looks good in women's clothes!! _________________ Alan Rickman...*sigh*... enough said.

Hum........hard to choose just one, Colonel Brandon, Snapey.

Exactly, Velouria!! I've just watched Snowcake again, thanks to this thread!

Can't believe Maggie wouldn't want Alex to stay!!? Is the woman mad?
After all, he is Dazlious!! _________________ Alan Rickman...*sigh*... enough said.

http://www.geocities.com/lady_of_nightfliers/myfirstdraft.htm
The concept can be expanded easily by adding new female characters that enter the house (friends of Stacy's coming to visit, assuming that she is alone) and new male characters that show up in unexpected places of the house. |
Eustacia-
I've just noticed this and have been reading this!
very good!
I was just waiting for Severus to show up!
I love the way you wrote his character, very commanding! and snarky, just the way we love him!
I like the idea of others adding to the story (I don't know if I have enough imagination to do it or not--definetely not this morning, haven't gone to bed yet! brain too addled!)
I can't believe I missed this before!

Thank you so much for reading and for your kind feedback!
I must admit I hid my writing in this thread instead of posting it to the fanfic section because I haven't found a beta yet and I definitely need a native speaker to check my grammar, spelling and idioms for me before I can call this a serious attempt at fanfic, LOL.
I'm so happy you like it so far!
Snape is definitely going to be a key figure in the story. Love him!
So if you ladies have any ideas, requests, criticism etc, I'll be happy to hear it. Thanks again for reading.
@jacksl: I can't draw at all. Two left hands. And I can't sing or play a musical instrument without sending everyone running away screaming. So the gods made up for it with a little imagination  _________________

Eustacia, I´ve just finished reading your story. It´s great, I really like it! You really have a gift.
Looking forward to the next chapter! And if you need other, female characters in the story, I volunteer...  |

I'm sure we'd all like to show up in the story, and be stranded with all these great AR characters, but half of us would fight over Snape!
And, Alex Hughes isn't there yet, I do like him, too,
oh, and our dear Colonel Brandon...sigh...
hey, wait a minute...I forgot my avatar, Jamie!!! how could I???
You're going to have to do something with the weapons these men carry, Eustacia, or there may be trouble, you know how that Sheriff is! (besides hot!), and Tybalt is rather young and impetuous...
And Sevvie and his wand (don't go there!), but, can he do wandless magic? hmmm... _________________ ~~~Nora~~~

I was going to say something about Snape and his wand, but I will try and restrain myself...
I have to admit, I am prepared to fight for the Colonel, just because of how cute we look together in that awesome picture Mrs_Turpin made for me  |

@Marie: would you like to write a chapter yourself, or would you like me to write it, which do you prefer? If you want to write it, I'll just have you knock at my door at the end of my next chapter.
@Nora:
Ah yes, the weapons problem. Thank you for the hint. Have to work something out.
As for the upcoming characters, well, "Don't you know / half the fun is to plan the plan / Everything comes to those who can wait!"
I'll definitely include Colonel Brandon, just thought it wiser not to introduce everyone in the same chapter. Some characters are still in the rooms upstairs.
Jamie's arrival is also already scheduled, but as far as I'm concerned, you can have him - I hate it when a room is a sauna, and I quite like my carpet the way it is . The only problem I have with Alex Hughes is that I haven't seen Snow Cake yet - it's next on my to-do list (I almost said "he" is next on my to-do list, but that would have been a bit misleading, wouldn't it?).  _________________

Call for female characters
If you want to be included in this story as a female character and don't want to write it yourself, PM me with the following info:
- name to be used in the story
- approximate age
- looks (hair color and texture, eye color, clothing style)
- your astrological sign
- the Hogwarts house you'd like to be in if you were a witch
- any distinguishing characteristics?
- greatest strength? biggest weakness?
- the object of your desire  _________________
