When someone finds out about the affair, that person tries to make sure that their indiscretion will not go unnoticed and can never be forgotten. Submitted by Lagoonlady 2. Harry Potter, the Boy Who Lived, is "in a delicate way" and every Hogwarts staff member and student (well, maybe not the Slytherins) are making sure that Harry and the baby are safe... really, really safe. Tell us about Harry's quest to sneak away and have some fun. Submitted by Lagoonlady 3. Lupin is, despite his shy demeanor, an alpha male, and as an alpha he is physically and magically compelled to find his mate and have a "litter" of his own. Who becomes his mate and how do they work out the children situation? Bonus points if it’s not Sirius. Submitted by Elliday 4. One of the Weasley twins, either Fred or George, becomes pregnant. No one, except the pregnant twin, knows who the other father is -- not even the other twin. The non-pregnant twin becomes protective and obsessed with finding the second father. Who does he find? How does the mystery man react to being a father? Preferably NO twinscest, but it is acceptable if desired. Submitted by Elliday 5.

Submitted by Lagoonlady 6. A comedy: Voldemort uses his most loyal Death Eaters, male and female, carry his heirs. Show us a Death Eater baby shower. Submitted by Lagoonlady 7.

He does some counting and realizes he must have gotten pregnant during the last full moon, while he was in werewolf form.

Submitted by Aurora Middleton 27. Voldemort finds a way to control Dumbledore and test Severus.

You may substitute other characters. Submitted by Sunny de Lucca 43. Dudley is the latest Muggle kidnapped by the Death Eaters. Since no one seems to be looking for him, one of the Death Eaters decides Dudley might as well be useful while he's there, since they have to feed him and everything. Submitted by Starling Siren 44.

A prophesy states that, if Harry conceive a child by Voldemort, the child will be Voldemort's true heir, more powerful than Voldemort himself. Harry is kidnapped and kept in a dungeon.

Now, the only chance to stop the prophesy is for a Death Eater-turned-spy, either Snape or Malfoy, to impregnate Harry before Voldemort can. Submitted by Scarlet Carly 55. Lucius Malfoy has a diabolical -- though very, very desperate -- plan to keep himself out of Azkaban. He needs Dumbledore's testimony for the Ministry to even consider letting him go free, but no one said Dumbledore had to give the testimony out of the goodness of his heart. A baby will ensure that Lucius has Dumbledore right where he wants him. Submitted by Scarlet Carly 56. When the war ends, Lucius Malfoy gets away without even a reprimand. Someone decides to uncover proof of that Lucius is still up to his evil ways by worming his way into Lucius's heart. But the unexpected happens and, instead of hoping he'll find evidence of Lucius's guilt, he begins to fervently hope that he won't. Submitted by Scarlet Carly 57.

Submitted by Sunny de Lucca 59. Lucius, Narcissia, and Draco are all on 'the side of the light.' Harry is in a relationship with Draco and gets pregnant. Before he can tell Draco, Harry is raped. The rapist and his motives are your choice. (Perhaps a Gryffindor is angered by Harry's supposed betrayal of their cause by dating Draco.) He's too ashamed and scared to tell Draco, so Harry breaks up with him. They get back together when Draco finds out the whole story. Perhaps Draco, and his parents, hear the story over dinner when Draco tries to woo Harry back. Submitted by Cat 60. Lucius Malfoy has decided to quit Voldemort's losing cause. He manages to snake his way into the good graces of his former enemies. The problem: Draco is still intent on following Voldemort! Lucius will go to any extreme to ensure that his son is bound to his side of the war, while removing any doubt that he is as powerful and ruthless as ever. He decides that a half-Gryffindor grandchild will do just that. Submitted by Scarlet Carly 61. Voldemort uses Lucius to create an heir. This is the last straw for Lucius, who finally sees the error of his ways. He's given refuge at Hogwarts. But what will become of the baby? Everyone ponders the old nature vs. nurture question, and Dumbledore finally comes down with a verdict: Lucius can keep the baby, but only he finds a second parent who can counteract any remaining lack of morals in Lucius. Submitted by Scarlet Carly 62. Something happened between Harry and Snape while they were held captive by Voldemort. Snape suffers memory loss. Now Harry is pregnant, and determined to get Snape to be a part of his life. He tells Snape that he's pregnant, but not that Snape is the father. Snape assumes a Death Eater impregnated Harry. Snape feels that Harry's capture is his fault; he knows Wizard laws require marriage; and he sees that Harry wants the baby. So, he reluctantly offers to help. Submitted by Scarlet Carly 63. Lucius Malfoy has an animagus form that he isn't proud of: white, fluffy, with a lovely bushy tail. He only uses it is for sex. (Amazingly, some people find it a turn on.) He's stalking through a village looking for the right mate, and getting rather frustrated, so when he sees a big, scraggly black dog, he throws his high standards out the window. He realizes the dog was an animagus, because an animagus/animal pregnancy is impossible or Sirius transforms after the act, leaving Lucius in total shock. Submitted by Scarlet Carly 64. Narcissa is dead. Suddenly, a baby appears in the Malfoy household. Lucius informs the curious that it's no one's business where he got his child. At Hogwarts, Draco is acting very strangely: worrying incessantly about his "brother" or "sister," writing letters home daily, obsessed with baby things, unable to concentrate in classes, etc. Submitted by Starling Siren 65. Snape finally discovers the cure for Remus's curse. If it is effectively demonstrated, Snape has been offered a prestigious award. The hitch: Remus has to be pregnant for it to work. Sirius refuses to father the child. Remus is about to give up hope, when Snape makes an unexpected offer. But why? Is it only because he wants to see the potion work or to receive the award? Submitted by Scarlet Carly NOTE: The following two challenges by The Goblet were originally combined. 66. Harry is pregnant by Hermoine. The cause is an unusual fertility spell. Harry and Hermoine have to explain what happened to a devastated Ron, and Mr. and Mrs. Granger. Submitted by The Goblet 67. Harry is pregnant. The "father" is Hermione.

Filch tells Snape of Harry's condition. Submitted by The Goblet 69.

Through some quirk of fate, Ron ends up pregnant by Draco. They are not currently in a relationship. Ron wants to get rid of it, but Draco won't let him. Why is Draco so hell bent on Ron keeping the baby and what lengths will he go to to make sure Ron does? Submitted by Kiara Balaur 72. Normal males can't get pregnant. But Draco is part Veela. He doesn't know it, since his family insists that they are purebloods. What will happen when he gets pregnant? Submitted by Piper 73. Normal males can't get pregnant. But Lucius is part Veela, and has been trying to hide this fact all his life. It looks like he won't be able to hide it any longer, because he's pregnant. Submitted by Piper 74.
