“Great-great-grandmother Ursula only died last year, and that was after she took a tumble off her broomstick.”

No, actually, it was because one of the idiot beaters had directed a bludger at her head, but Alphard wasn’t going to bring that up.”

I’ve been re-reading this fic after yesterday’s update and it truly is amazing. But my real question is, what’s the story with Great-great-grandmother Ursula. She’s sounds like she’s from almost two generations above Dumbledore and she was still playing Quidditch ? Was she sitting in the stands? What kind of woman was she and how did she die ?

Thank you so much for thé fic it is wonderful and I am so excited for any future updates.

Look, @therealvinelle, praise!

The answer is that secret fic has required @therealvinelle and I to make a hilariously detailed and notated Black family tree in order to keep track both of characters and family scandals. We needed an example of one of the relatives who does last forever (shockingly few of them as JKR had a purge of the entire goddamn family ~1980-1990 that's beautifully hilarious) and we needed a reason for her to have died.

We settled on Great-Great Grandmother Ursula Flint, married to Phineus Nigellus Black (the headmaster guy we see in the books), who we decided lasted until 1981 (good for her!) and so we thought sudden unsuspicious death in the wizarding world, could be a lot of things, eh she gets hit in the head in Quidditch. Which is to say she was most certainly playing.

Great-Great Grandmother Ursula was one of those little old ladies who lived forever and never seemed to run out of energy or the life to go out and do (sometimes inadvisable) things. She was one of those little old ladies who you want to be when you grow up, who just keeps on going even though her husband died sixty years prior, and is out there playing Quidditch with the rest of them. This unfortunately leads to her death when "an idiot beater" hits her not realizing that yes, he is playing against a little old lady and perhaps he should not go all out. She died as she lived. In glory.

What do you think would happen if Carlisle brought the Cullen coven to visit the volturi. Let’s days Aro really wants to see Carlisle, or for some reason Carlisle wants to go back for a visit. How do you see that playing out ?

"But they weren’t giving him all their money or thinking he was a god."

Cmon now Lilly. I loved this chapter and I really feel for poor Alphard he’s going through it, and poor Lilly.

Are you going to expand upon the cult of the Order of the Phoenix or can you say some more about it here ?

The Man Who Would Be King by me and @therealvinelle

Everyone's having a terrible time.

As for the cult bit, it may be expanded upon shortly in the fic, but I can circle back with what we see in canon (HBP is a real doozy)

What’s the death note sequel One-Shot ?

Ohba and Obata, the original author and artist who made the Death Note manga and source material, released a post-canon manga chapter fairly recently (within the last few years versus the many years its been since Death Note finished).

It was set in the Death Note universe, several years after the canon events had taken place.

And it is bad.
