fic rec: "Ministry Business - Official or Otherwise"
This is a very awesome selection from [livejournal.com profile] springtime_gen:

Ministry Business - Official or Otherwise by (as yet anonymous)
(Albus Dumbledore, Cornelius Fudge, Mafalda Hopkirk, Rufus Scrimgeour, Rita Skeeter, Dolores Umbridge, Arthur Weasley, Yaxley, and a few-last-name-only/original characters; PG)
Author's summary: In a time of uncertainty, Rufus Scrimgeour seemed like the obvious choice for Minister of Magic. Or was he? A look into the private, written exchanges between Ministry employees during the end of Fudge's reign and the beginning of another.

My comment: "*flail* SO awesome. The amount of thought and work that went into this really shows. It's like you've picked out certain details in a vast painting - the rest of the painting is implied very well. P.S. I love Yaxley referring to Voldemort (right?) as 'our Dear Friend'."

This is epistolary fiction in the form of various official letters, memos, transcripts, reports, etc., set during June and July 1996 (just after the end of OotP). It looks pretty, being all images with handwriting fonts and things, although unfortunately that means I can't count the words (I think it took me about half an hour to read it?) nor is it accessible to those who might need to use a screen reader. (Also could use some better text editing in some spots.) Still, I really enjoyed it.
