Harry & Hagar: Partners in Prank – Chapter 2:…
Ed’s Note: Presenting the second chapter of Trystain’s ongoing Harry Potter fanfic: Harry & Hagar: Partners in Prank. Trystain is more prolific than gifted, and does not seem to be getting any better with further installments, but nevertheless we believe there is some sort of limited entertainment value that can be gleaned from this. Also, Trystain is letting us post these without paying him, so hey, free content! Enjoy!(?)

Ed’s Note: Presenting the first chapter of our very own Trystain’s ongoing Harry Potter fanfic: Harry & Hagar: Partners in Prank. Trystain is more prolific than gifted, as will be painfully clear, but nevertheless we believe there is some sort of limited entertainment value that can be gathered from this. Also, Trystain is letting us post these without paying him, so hey, free content! Enjoy!(?)

A Gift of Steam
As much as I love Steam, there’s one big problem with it: no “invisible” mode. Steam is always up and running when my computer is, so I never have it closed. I have not added any of my friends because my ratio of computer to games usage is very lopsided. All I will be getting is requests to play Left 4 Dead or Team Fortress 2 when all I have time to do is play a single-player game for thirty minutes, or get in a few brief sessions of CS: GO.
A four-hour game session every night is something I can only dream about. With the possibility of only one or two lengthy get-togethers a week, if that, adding anyone to my friends list is just leading them on.
I am also not in a clan or dabbling in the hat trade, so as you can guess, I have very few people on my Steam friends list. Aside from the token family members, there’s somebody with a Duke Nukem avatar and someone who hasn’t been online in fifty-five days. And one sole Russian friend. Since I don’t speak Russian, he is a source of mystery and intrigue.
