Every prompt TWICE!!! That should be an award on its own.
This fic should win a SURPRISINGLY DEEP AND NUANCED THOUGHTS WHILE DRUNK award!
Or possibly the FACEPALM OH DEAR DOG THE PUNS WHILE DRUNK award! (I have seen so many "on the one hand, but on the other hand" discussions about JKR that I read right through that before realizing that the person speaking was MITTENS, aaargh!)
BTW, I would think of using Shacklebolt for a black character as an in-your-face haha, look what my ancestors overcame kind of usage - like the reclamation of "queer" in our lifetimes and the more recent tiny beginnings of reclaiming "c**t." But that's my reading--it may not have been JKR's intent.
