New Chapter for Alone and Palely Loitering
Alone and Palely Loitering

Immortality seemed a good idea at the time, but it has its disadvantages. Over the years, Nicolas Flamel has had many, many romantic entanglements, but no one flusters him quite as much as Albus Dumbledore. And Dumbledore may have one last surprise up his spangled sleeve.

I'm a middle-aged, professional writer of non-fiction and would-be professional writer of fiction who also writes Harry Potter fanfiction just for fun.
I’m a proud member of the Harry Potter Old Lady Smut Brigade, which means I’m most interested in the older female characters in the Harry Potter saga, particularly Minerva McGonagall.
If I had received my Hogwarts letter back in nineteen-mumble-mumble, I would most likely have been sorted into Ravenclaw, or so everyone tells me, probably because I’m a geeky data-freak (my Real Life™ requires me to read piles of medical journal articles.) I, however, think I’d feel right at home in Hufflepuff too, so I consider myself a Ravenpuff.
The fics I write may contain adult themes, and I will always warn for non-con, graphic violence, bestiality, incest, or underage sex. I don't warn for homosexual relationships or sex, or for threesomes/moresomes, unless they contain one of the aforementioned elements.

I maintain a master list of (mostly Minerva-centric) recs at Diigo.

My goodness, I love that you've upgraded Perenelle from the footnote on a Chocolate frog card to a real, breathing, scheming woman in her own right.“Now,” she said, “I will live.” I don't doubt that she will!

Thanks. I've long wanted to write something about the Flamels, who got very short shrift in the books, I thought.All those "Chocolate Frogs" characters intrigue me, actually.

A very interesting take on the Flamels and on immortality. And Dumbledore?! He should so much have been in Slytherin. Scheming old .. git.
Response from Squibstress (Author of Alone and Palely Loitering)
Thanks for reading.Dumbledore would have been right at home in Slytherin, I think.

He really didn't learn very much about women, in all the long years of him immortality.
Response from Squibstress (Author of Alone and Palely Loitering)
No, sadly. Some people never do learn.Thanks for reading!
Very brilliant. I loved seeing the Flamels and how Nicholas dealt with being immortal. I love how the Elixir affected Perenelle differently and the ending... ouch. Thank you

That was absolutely hilarious. In a very, very, very twisted way.
I do like irony.

Thanks. It was really fun to write. (My first totally Minerva-free story, BTW!)
