DADA Professor Blackadder (original) (raw)

Got a bunny that's been bouncing around in my head. I'm not well-versed enough in Blackadder to write it, so I'm releasing it to the wild...

Characters: Professor Blackadder, Defense Against the Dark Arts. Snape. Baldrick. Draco Malfoy. Anyone else you want to play with. Potterverse/Blackadder crossover.

Rating: However it comes out. This is a pretty gen bunny, but writer's descretion.

Scenario: There is a new professor teaching Defense Against the Dark Arts: Professor Blackadder. Latest in a long line of dark, snarky, and morally ambiguous Blackadders, this one is a wizard. Two dark, snarky, and morally ambiguous men were not meant to co-exist peacefully in the same castle. Havoc ensues.

Snape and Blackadder's constant vicious verbal battles (snarking and sniping, hooray!) disrupt Hogwarts. Draco Malfoy is shredded in the crossfire. Snape is furious at being passed up yet again for the DADA position. Voldemort, Lucius Malfoy, or other active Death Eaters may be trying to seduce Blackadder to the side of Complete & Utter Evil from his comfortable stance at Whatever's Most Convenient For Me That Isn't Likely To Get Me Killed. And what is Snape planning? Is his cunning plot to reveal and upset the Death Eaters' plots, to injure, oust, or inconvenience Professor Blackadder, or something completely different?

Tone of fic: humor, dark humor if you can swing it.


In a word: bwahahaha. Knowledge of both Harry Potter and Blackadder is recommended for this endeavor.
