Top 16s 📜

[Stefan Archer]

We all have our favourites, though - which is why it's HNZ birthday tradition to compile a list (or lists!) of your favourite moments, RPs, characters, ships, emoticons, games... go wild!! You can make as many or few lists as you like on any subjects at all. As we're celebrating HNZ's 16th birthday, we're asking you to come up with your favourite 16 things from each of your chosen categories.

No matter how old HNZ gets, I always wish I could pick more but without further ado, here are my top 16s lists this year, in no particular order!!

I feel so new because I don't recognize half these things It was really hard to narrow it down to just 16 but these are some of my favorite HNZ moments over the years that have been on my mind lately

1. Bruin turning into a bear in the Great Hall and running off after being rejected ? by Andromeda ? (I thiiiink?) and Isabella spreading rumors of him being a werewolf in her gossip magazine because of it
2. The prefect's putting on a play and Njord fake dying during it and traumatizing everyone IC and OOC lol
3. OGs I still think about: Ford Harkonnen, Sophia Stark, Bellatrix Green, ALSO I was obsessed with Kaitlyn's character Jaken Styx
4. As fancy as the Quidditch system is now, I miss the old way of playing, with posting your coordinates on the pitch, and then trying to catch the snitch that posted sooo fast, IT WAS SO CHAOTIC but oh so funnnn
5. Being a global moderator I will always admire the Admin & GMs for all the hard work that goes on behind the scenes
6. The Triwizard Tournament and the Durmstrang boys causing drama!!
7. WAM breaking into the Ravenclaw room and also finding the Room of Requirement
8. WAM
9. Marisol's need to be Dramatic™ and asking Professor Pendleton to Obliviate Teagan just because she hated her
10. That time Marisol tried to tell Wyatt she was a werewolf and much to her embarrassment he thought she was referring to that other time of the month
11. Bethany becoming Head Girl still my proudest accomplishment
12. Avie Mitchell <3333
13. That time Avie caught the snitch IMMEDIATELY after the game started and no one else even got a chance to post
14. Desislav Zhefarovich
15. Clementine and Teddy and Desislav and Teddy referring to Anthony as "whatshisface" the entire time
16. Getting drunk on Skype with various people from different time zones so some people were day drinking while it was evening for others and 2am for me, etc. and playing Cards Against Humanity
