Harry Potter Co-hosted Contest with obsidian nightmare

I am co-hosting this contest with obsidian nightmare
I.E. She helped me with the ideas and will be judging this contest with me.

First let's get to the rules! *Harry Potter theme plays*

Rules:
Erotica is allowed only if it is tasteful
Swearing should be at a minimum
No chat speak (U R Weird)
No sticky caps (I cAn'T tAkE tHiS!)
No caps lock ( ALL IN CAPITAL LETTERS.)
Please try to use proper grammar unless it's the way someone speaks
USE SPELL CHECK!!!!!
No prewrites!
You MUST have 'Fizzing Whizbees' in your authors comment box to show you have read the rules
Two entries per person.

Options:

Option 1:
Read 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them'
Then choose a beast from this list and write about it. I want creativity and not some boring description of them. Think about what kind of life they lead. If you met one what would you do? Something like that. I'm tired of the same old creatures that people write about like Centaurs and Unicorns, ect. Boring now.
Instead I was to see these:
Acromantula
Bowtruckle
Crup
Doxy
Fwooper
Hippocampus (see description in aforementioned book)
Hippogriff
Niffler
Lethifold
Snidget (See also 'Quidditch Through the Ages' for more info)

Remember: You MUST have 'Fizzing Whizbees' in your authors comment box to show you have read the rules

Option 2: Read 'Quidditch Through the Ages' or read about the World cup in book fou...or any old match.
Write a poem about Quidditch or about at match. Try to make it from another perspective OTHER than Gryffindor's but if you MUST write about wood do it in Option three

Remember: You MUST have 'Fizzing Whizbees' in your authors comment box to show you have read the rules

Option 3:
Write a poem to your favorite character stating why you like them.
You could do a short fanfiction for this if you like. But please make it interesting.

Remember: You MUST have 'Fizzing Whizbees' in your authors comment box to show you have read the rules

Option 4:
Love poems to Peter Pettigrew, Crabbe or Goyle. All three if you like! No seriously. It can be as funny as you like or as serious as you would like.
But we want to see at least three of these.

Remember: You MUST have 'Fizzing Whizbees' in your authors comment box to show you have read the rules

Now go and have fun!
Contest will only close when we have a minimum of 20 entries.

Edit: Now accepting prewries please adhere to the rules though!

Note Edit: I apologise for the ammount of time it takes to judge...My co-judge hasen't written back to me on her choises yet. please hang in there. I will try to get this contest judged as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.

    I'm interested. The love letter could be fun, but would I have to do it in rhyme?
    I'm thinking of doing one for Peter

    Oh this is too funny. I may have to enter this with my love letter to dear Peter. Aw. My heart yearns for him.




    No seriously, if I can get my muse working I'll enter something into this contest. It's so clever.


    Cheers,

    Hmmm interesting. i am going to think on this. I don't have Quiiditch Through the Ages of Fantastical and Magical Beasts so I am going to have to go off the books. I don't care for Peter Petigrew, Crabbe or Goyle. Could those be a hate poem?

    Oh Dear, try as I might I could not find option 5 the " Write an alternate ending to 'Half Blood Prince' " option, no matter how many times I look for that special room across from " Barnabus the Barmy" just around the corner from the Fat Lady.

    Even if I could, there's the very Umbridge-like rule of " No Prewrites" Well, since I'm here, FIZZING WHIZBEE!!!
