And here is the HP poll for January! The choices are:

Magic of the Force – HP/SW crossover: The Tyrant’s Bane races to Thyferra to try and stave off a atrocity on the galactic scale, not knowing that the attack has already begun. Padme and her escorts deal with political machinations of the ruling families and growing descent among the locals, before Anakin’s luck proves equal to a Potter’s in finding trouble. Said trouble comes in the form of commando droids, who do damage to the local defenses, and then comes the other side of the equation. The defense force does its best, while screams for aid are shouted through the Hypercom, to go unheard. Anakin proves once and for all that he is a master at piloting, but one starfighter cannot turn a battle this size, and soon, the CIS forces are in orbit… Only for help to arrive unlooked for. The Force once more proves a great equalizer as the bombardment is halted on the verge of victory, and a new battle begins between a giant, and a herd of wolves, who, much to the chagrin of Harry and company, prove that even without enough data to understand what they are seeing, the CIS are no fools, and no depths to which they will not stoop under Darth Dominus.

FILFy Teacher – HP/DxD crossover: A exceptionally angry Rias, after talking herself out of just blasting the place with Power of Destruction, leads what could be called a minor invasion of the headquarters of the ICW. There, a large group of old men are made to realize that no, they are not very powerful at all. Meanwhile, Harry finally wakes up on the Island along with Asia. While whole of body Asia is still wounded of spirit and soul, a fact Harry tries to do his best to help her with before the pair step through to Egypt. There, Harry is informed of all that has happened, and decides that Rias can handle the grumpy old men, doing what he can to win hearts and minds as Asia does the same just by being herself. Dates are planned before Harry steps through to play ‘moderately angry cop’ to Rias’s ‘homicidal with righteous wrath’ cop. A shaky agreement is hammered into being, reparations are paid, and Harry and Rias move on to their next meeting back in Egypt. There, a deal is offered, oaths of various types given, and plans to make a conference already planned much, much larger. And elsewhere, forces of chaos and evil are on the move not just on Earth, but in Hell as well…

Fate Touched in Middle Earth – HP/Tolkien crossover: Harry and Tauriel get to know Gimli and his troop, becoming surprised that such a young dwarf is indeed the leader of the group, telling Gimli where they have been and learning about what has been going on in Erebor. Gimli quickly proves to be similar to Fili and Kili in a way, becoming fast friends with both lovers, and the two of them join the patrol for a time, dealing with one more goblin den, finding a thing of horror within. Arriving in Erebor several days later, Harry and Thorin renew their acquaintance in a way that is ‘most dwarfish’, before Harry and Tauriel spend time in Erebor. Harry starts to learn from and teach the Dwarven Rune Masters, with revelations on both sides while Tauriel and Dis discuss food, farming and insults, discussions which both king and wizard join in enthusiastically. Politics and personal compatibility are both discussed as Dis searches for a wife for each of her male residents, to the horror of her sons an d chagrin of a certain antisocial group of dwarves. Work on their house has continued, and Harry and Tauriel move in, only to be astonished at the first group of visitors they get, letting Harry meet his in-laws. After several months of dancing on eggshells, however, news comes from the northwest, and Thorin decides it is time for Erebor to reach out and axe someone. Harry and Tauriel, now bedecked in new armor, join the expedition, intending to head further north, while elsewhere, evil bides its time in various forms.

I mentioned it before in the Ranma, and I will do the same here. I will be taking part in this one. I don’t know who I will vote for, but I would like to see at least one sci-fi story updated this month… But then again, if Fate wins, I might push for a fourth fic this month. Hmm.. We will have to see. I was almost able to do it last month, but I don’t know if that’s sustainable. Regardless, this fic will end on the 15th.

Two questions: FILFy: will the conference involve all of the factions getting together to decide what to do about the SoS falling because of Egypt? In Fate Touched, does renewing their friendship in a dwarfish way mean a drinking contest or a bar brawl?

DuckPond

+3 to Filfy!

To be fair, that would be a spoiler that might be more interesting to read. Even so, I don't think so because of the way it was phrased in the last chapter. It was implied that they would solve the problems in Egypt and the Wizarding World before the conference. Also, considering the Interdict, it would be impossible for the Factions to get involved without being brought into the secret of Danann. Even if they had peace, I don't think Harry ever invited the angels to Danann considering the history, and that all the long-lived species in Danann hate Christianity with a passion. It would be in their nature to proselytize even if they aren't as militant as they used to be, which was already stated to be bad for the races of Danann.

Late here will answer more later. But yes, Harry would not invite the angels through to Danan unless it was a full apocalypse type event.

Beleriond

Sorry, I thought the conference would be somewhere on Earth for some reason.

I don't think that Magic has a real chance, but it has my vote at least. I'm kind of curious to see if FILFy will pulverize the other two or not, but the poll is right now more close that I was expecting it to be.

Daniel Neil

I'm not sure why but I can't vote on either survey this month. I've tried both through my computer and the app on my phone.

Okay, so. Yes, the conference will involve all of the factions. No it won't happen in Egypt. By that point the SoS will be propped up as well as possible (think, chewing gum and wire to hold up a fence). The conference will be in Kuoh, as in the original. fate - both. First drinking contest, then a fight. And to repeat. Harry could not and would not invite the angel faction or the Chruch as it is run into Danan. He would alienate all the original inhabitants if he did. And remember, Harry's not yet had any dealings with the angels or fallen, so they have not contributed anything to the power base of the Kuoh Alliance.

Beleriond

If it’s only the three factions, they may need to think about having another conference or just expanding it. When magic and the events in Egypt get exposed, the magical world will need a unified front. Other factions like the Hindus, Norse, Yokai, Goblins, and many others may object, perhaps violently. Th Chaos Brigade could also take advantage of this. Since the secret of Egypt can only be known within the ICW or Egypt, maybe host it in the former. It would be nice to read about the stuck up wizards watching various magical creatures traipsing through their illustrious halls.

Druid

For some reason the actual clickable area is smaller than the box shown. I had to do a bit of random clicking, and finally managed to select what I wanted.

Synner

Dunno why my votes won't save but I'm casting all mine for FILFy, in case the poll continues to not work.

MagisterdeVita

Try going to the website. I just did and now my vote is sticking.

vimesenthusiast

This is a weird problem. I made a mistake in who could vote a while back when the site basically forced me to have a tier but I haven't made any changes to how I put up polls this month than i have since then. Sorry, Synner, but I think MagisterdeVita's suggestion is the only one I can tell you. Patreon is... buggy (and not the Flashy type) to put it mildly, and has been for nearly half a year by this point.

Aaron Orr

I throw all the weight that is too late to lose behind Fate Touched both here and on fanfiction.net on the Author's page poll.

Bryan Brown

My vote isn't working either

vimesenthusiast

This is a weird problem. I have not done anything on my end at all to block anyone, so if you can see the poll and post, you should be able to vote. I... I have no idea. I will add a question about this when I pot the results of this poll. Is it only this one poll? Have you tried to vote on the other polls this month?

Bryan Brown

I didn't vote in the Rama poll but I am not sure if I missed it during inventory week or I couldn't and forgot to try again later. I've had lag issues where i had to refresh to see the check mark before but figured that was on my end. I use chrome browser if that helps figure anything out.
