PeonCast: Four Hufflepuffs and a Wacky Ginger
In this special edition of PeonCast we discuss the “It’s Not Over Yet” challenge from PFW. Scarlett wasn’t ready for HP to be over as the last movie came out, so she organized a writing challenge. Each entry was posted anonymously and forum members were able to read and comment on each story. After everyone had time to read them, we put up a poll and the top ficlet and drabble won the honor to be discussed by the Poufwa podcasters. Join us as we talk to Scarlett and Sue about the fics they wrote. We drag Aaron in without notice and expect him to make sense. Scarlett’s roomie crashes the podcast and we give love to several authors. You can read all the stories on www.potterficforum.com if you’ve missed them.

In this episode we talk about “Secrets” by our very own Jules. We have two, well three if you count Darth, special guests. Even though our two special guests are old hands, we still have our troubles as we find that someone is breathing a little too much, Tricia is attacked by the Loch Ness Monster and Sue’s lost control of the podcast. We also revisit our discussion of “who’s on top” from our PeonCast days. There is a lot of love and laughter in this one, not to mention the breathing, lots and lots of breathing. And did we mention the “in laws?”
Jules has also written “Sisters” This wasn’t really written to go along with Secrets, but it does, so give it a read too.

Today in PuffCast, we finish up our discussion of “Teddy Lupin and the Forest Guard” by FernWithy. We revisit explosive topics such as Yellowstone and Susan Bones, reference both Star Trek and the Muppets at once, and there’s juuust a little bit of sports. Tricia and OG are FANGIRLS, Scott has a visiting ghost and Sue is distracted by “The Talk.” We do talk about the last chapters of Teddy Lupin, where we learn about the Charmer and what’s in that interesting ivy in the forest. As we near the final chapter, our discussion becomes increasingly focused and incisive–and then Kelly joins us, and the tangents ride forth once more.
Then, Fernwithy joins us for an interview, once we overcome our technical difficulties. Interesting discussion ensues, which includes further fangirling, forum promotion, and Oliversgal’s thoughts on the redemption of House Scrimgeour.
We encourage you to check out more of Fern’s stories “here.” Tricia particularly recommends Shifts and Shades, and Teddy’s own story continues in alternating years. Not to mention Albus Potter and the horde of Hermiones.

In it we find out that Oliversgal is a Mary Sue and a fan girl, Aaron’s true feelings for Robert and that Sue has killer chickens. Oliversgal, has glasses that insist on hitting the microphone as she talks and Aaron is typing throughout, but he doesn’t fall asleep. Scott’s neighbors have strange mowing habits, while Kelly’s mute button almost works. We forget we aren’t Peons anymore and bring some of our favorite Peon moments back for all to enjoy.
We have a some burning questions: What house is Jo in? What do you do for Christmas? and Who do you feed to a dementor?
