Yes, of course No?????? I looked it up and am familiar with the story under a different name Bisclavret is the story of the werewolf who needs his clothes to transform, his wife hides them, and he lives with the king for awhile till what happened gets discovered

The noise is Draco, who got kicked out by parents and got roofied. Harry rescues him, I think Draco passes out? and then Harry is annoyed because his buzz is gone and he has to deal with this. The second fic (or chapter) opens from Draco's POV. He's looking around the bedroom he's in and he figures out it's the old Black house because of the furniture and that Harry must have rescued him but taken him home instead of the hospital. He decides to seduce Harry and he's able to conjure like a mirror and brush? and there's a line about how this is the only spell he's able to do wordlessly/wandlessly? I think the POV then switches to Harry and there's a line about how Draco has managed to get like a single ray of light from the curtains to fall on him perfectly. Harry is aware he's being seduced but he's into it. Then I think the next chapter has Harry confronting the Malfoy parents about how they're going to get married and they're not going to hyphenate names, Draco is going to take his last name. The final fic is maybe from Lucius pov (or narcissa?) Draco threw Harry a really big birthday party and reveals he's pregnant which causes Lucius to faint? And there's a line about how the baby has brought both Harry and Lucius to their knees. That's all I remember, thanks so much!

Thank you! It’s two parts: a tiny rhinestone crown that belongs to Clovis Devilbunny, and an antique rhinestone hair ornament that was an estate sale find. 

What a weird mixture of super thoughtful and deeply disturbing!

Being fair to my mother, she is clearly aware how disturbing they are -- I don’t think she was when she ordered them, but she told me they arrived and she went “OH NO.” She assured me she would not be hurt if I didn’t want to wear them but by the time she finished the sentence I had already put them on and was wiggling my toes in delight.

Gelt!!!!

RIGHT? Hilariously I also brought gelt to give to them just to add to the Buffet Of Snacks we always have out at the holidays, so we have so much gelt.

So you can cosplay when you see Cats?

Or just cosplay with my cats!

Went there last Sunday with the fam since that's mom's hometown. So so many lights.

It’s amazing how much it’s changed, too. Ten years ago, the last time I went (my folks have been since) it was legit just an empty park with lights; we walked around, oohed and ahhed, and then went home. This time there was like, a whole production -- huge crowds of people, tractor- AND horse-drawn hayrides, food trucks, no parking. I was astonished. It’s great for the city I’m sure, but I did feel like maybe a few more crossing guards/traffic cops might be in order.

I have been beaten into submission on most Hallmark movies but not Candice's. I find hers to be the most grating and voice to be like nails on the chalkboard most of the time. Lifetime has stepped up their game and now offers racial diversity at least.

She’s very terrible, and you can tell she has a hand in the writing/production actively because hers are the only ones that really hammer home This Heroine Believes In God And Is A Good Christian.

And I was so delighted by Lifetime this year! They have a holiday movie about Christmas and Hanukkah -- Mistletoe and Menorahs -- written by a Jewish man, that was super enjoyable and culminates in the heroine winning the day through The Power Of Knowing What Hanukkah Is Actually About (Maccabees). 

I will say, I saw most of Double Holiday (one of the two Jewish-adjacent Hallmark movies) and it was way more charming and less creepy than I anticipated. Still had quite a few problems and I don’t think Hallmark should be trumpeting it as actually being about Hanukkah, but it wasn’t the hot mess I expected.
