Some day, this will be a "Last.fm/NetFlix/Amazon for web fiction" (both original and fanfiction) where you can search across many different hosting sites or rate what you've read and get recommendations. However, life keeps throwing more urgent projects my way, so I don't know when it'll be ready.
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7665632/21/What followed was perhaps the most boring four hours of Neville and Harry's lives. And Harry had spent most of his locked in a cupboard.
"They argued about the stupidest things!" Harry complained to Hermione as they sat in the courtyard. Percy had joined them as he had been considering a job in the Ministry.
"What sort of things?" He asked curiously.
"Standardization of the Thickness of Cauldron Bottoms." Neville quoted dryly.
"Surely that could be considered important in some circumstances." Percy reasoned.
"They argued over it for forty-five minutes!" Harry squawked. "Neville suggested they create a list of thicknesses for a variety of cauldrons for various uses."
"That… sounds… reasonable." Hermione said unsurely.
Percy nodded. "Very, a logical solution."
"They laughed at him!" Harry said angrily. "They didn't even listen, they just laughed and mocked. Xander got very angry."
"Did you convince them in the end?" Percy asked.
Both Harry and Neville gave a bitter snort of laughter. "They agreed to form a committee to determine the validity of the report that they were currently debating… which was compiled by a previous committee appointed the month before by the same Wizengamot."
"Did they discuss anything important?" Hermione asked desperately. She seriously hoped that it wasn't as bad as it sounded. It didn't bode well for the Wizarding world otherwise.
"Quidditch World Cup is being held here over the summer." Neville shrugged.
"Yes, it's been planned for the past two years. The first time since the… since the night you saved us Harry." Percy said with a sad smile. Xander had insisted that they treat that night as a celebration, Sirius agreed. James and Lilly would not want their son moping around after so long. So now it was the day that James, Lilly and Harry Potter saved the world.
"Yeah, some of them wanted to add restrictions and registration requirements for people like werewolves, leprechauns and something called Veela."
"That's terrible!" Hermione exclaimed scandalously.
"Don't worry, Xander got them to back off by demanding that every wand be publicly registered and require a license to use." Harry grinned. "They didn't seem to like that idea, so they shut up pretty quick."
