On reading isiscolo's not-quite-slashy fic here, it occurred to me that the main area of application for the Invisibility Cloak is to spy on other people having sex and wank in the process. (Unless you're Peter, in which case it is used for kitchen raids.)

Nothing wrong with it, of course. But as the cloak is to be kept secret, Harry's not very likely to have it laundered. And as Harry doesn't strike me as the type to do the necessary washing himself, it leads to one conclusion: The Invisibility Cloak reeks of cum. It is soaked with the sperm of members of at least two generations (plus food and drink spillt by clumsy Peter during his kitchen sessions). It doesn't float gently, enveloping the wearer's form, it is stiff with dried semen and creaks eerily when bent.

In Discworld news: I adore the way soawen's brain works. Commenting on my Snupin drabble for villainny, she came up with the perfect partner for Death: BorrowingBinky!Granny. I was laughing for five minutes straight, and giggling happily for some fifteen minutes longer. Now, this opens wholly new possiblities for Slut!Granny, getting it on with all possible (and impossible) animals in Lancre. Including Borrowing Greebo while he pleasures Nanny.

Can you tell how much I'm looking forward to dwsquick100?

In Very Sad News: The two longish fics I have been writing, the Snape/Black on tropical island and the Snape/Lupin featuring Lupin with his hands tied behind his back, are gone. Well, not exactly gone, not as such. Merely inaccessible. I had my brother replace my old hard disk with a new one and burned all my Word files on CD to be copied to the new disk. And guess what? The computer refuses to open any of the files on the CD. I am at a loss, and even my brother, who's really smart with computers and who's installed the burner and software, is unable to tell me how to fix it. I am lucky, I guess, that it wasn't important files like work or uni stuff, but still. I want my Snack back.

Considering how frequently the cloak features in such fics, I'd say you're right on the money.

And oh, what sad news on your fics. I was looking forward to them.

For what it's worth, you might try opening the files on another computer, and keep trying until you find one that opens it. I had a similar problem with some files I created at my old job and tried to open on the computer at my new job.

Also, can you see the files? If so, perhaps you could save them to your drive and open from there?

You could always just reinstall the old disk, too, and save the files another way. Or have someone install it as a slave on their system, and copy the files.

All hope is not yet lost!! Good luck. I know it's traumatic.

Thank you for that lovely mental image ;)

Horrible news about your fics, hopefully you will open them eventually. Although, I can't imagine it's easy asking random people for help, what with it being Snape porn and all.

LOL!!
I nearly fell off my chair laughing. The Invisibility Cloak will never be the same for me.
Goes to show what can happen if you really think things through! :-)

When I came to the end of your post I wasn´t laughing anymore, though. Hope you´ll get your Snack back soon. I was *so* looking forward to it.

Ah, but you're forgetting the ingenious invention of cleaning spells! Wave of the wand after the wank and you're good as new!

You don't get it. It's the sperm that gives the cload its magic.

Was that brain working enough for today? *grins*
