Doc’s Imagination Runs Wild…Millions Left Homeless
So I’m driving to a doctor appointment yesterday and a whole series of little things (thinking about the new Harry Potter book I have not read yet, gaming ideas popping into my head, the theme for “Have Gun…Will Travel” playing on the radio)cause me to get this idea…
…What if Harry Potter had been born 150 years earlier in the United States? What if his big battle with Voldemort had left him more cynical and maybe a bit more violence prone? You might get him handing out business cards that said:
Have Wand Will Travel
Wire Potter
Hotel Carleton, San Francisco
I can just see Harry…dressed in black and looking world weary…quoting Shakespeare…helping the underdog for a reasonable fee…blasting the crap out of the bad guys when need be. Ahhh.
But wait, you say! What about Ron, Hermione and the rest? Well, kids, I’ve got that covered, too…
The Wild Wild Wizarding West
Secret Service Agents Potter, Weasley and Granger battle a host of steampunk villains (including the diminutive Draco Loveless) who want to wreck havoc on the United States in the 1880’s.
Yeah, I’ve got me just TOO much imagination.
