I was busy with other three fests - still am with Smutty Claus - during the comment fest, hence why I could only prompt and not fill in anything, even though I had more than one idea.
Also, I wrote a Dean/Lily Luna story for the Dirtywrong Comment Fest over at hp_het_taboo, but I posted it right before this fest started and I didn't know I could have cross-posted here too (had I known that, I would have done it!).
But to be quite honest, probably there isn't all that interest to explore characters of colour in the Harry Potter fandom...? Not for some particular reason, but maybe just because they're all mostly secondary characters? And also because all I see on my Friends Feed is Harry/Draco popping up EVERYWHERE, and I don't even follow a single h/d community. I mean, I'm not sure that people are interested in writing about something different from their usual interests for a fest (there are people who participate to fests and ask ALWAYS the same pairings over and over and over again). And that makes me a bit sad. I - for example - would love to have a community that would run fests for the next-gen for example, but I don't think anybody would like to participate judging by the amount of next-gen stories that people write for fests. And it's the same for characters of colours, people don't really write much about them. Draco, Harry, Hermione, Snape are every-freaking-where. Maybe the only one is Blaise, who appears a bit more often than the others.
But this is what I think, but maybe I'm wrong. I don't know. :|
