Luna Lovegood and the Charmed Circle by Hotrav

Summary:

Luna Lovegood's wedding is just weeks away. She must juggle wedding plans, running a business, locating one of her dearest friends, and living up to the secret deal that made her the editor of her own newspaper.

For the wedding date is just a week before the culmination of that secret pact Luna had made with two of her former D.A. schoolmates. The secret pact caused Luna to drop out of school during her seventh year. A deal that will put Luna up against the powers-that-be at the Ministry of Magic and the Daily Prophet. A deal that may eventually cost her the family business: The Quibbler.

The main story takes place three and a half years after the final battle with the Deatheaters and the final defeat of Thomas Marvolo Riddle.

In the Harry Potter Canon, Mr. Lovegood does not have a first name. For my story I have dubbed him Linus Lovegood. Linus is an ancient name which goes back to Apollo. However, the reason I chose this name is because I can see Linus and Luna sitting in a pumpkin patch on All-Hallows Eve certain that this year the Great Pumpkin will arrive.
