Word of the Day Challenge

I'll post a new word for each day, including its definition(s). All words are courtesy of the Oxford English Dictionary unless otherwise noted.

Ferrets are asked to write a short ficlet (between 100-500 words) and include a WotD.

Submissions can be any genre, about any canon character(s) in any time period.

• There is no deadline.
• You may use any previously listed WotD once.
• You may use more than one WotD in a single submission.
• Please give each submission a title.
• You should specify the WotD used at the end of your post.
• All subs are to be posted in this topic.
• Comments for submissions must be posted in the WotD Discussion topic.
• Each submission will count as 2 Ferret Points (10 galleons) towards its writer's earnings in the Hogwarts Bathroom Fund Drive.
