What a neat idea. Mary is obviously a witch of some sort.

Fan Fiction II: Great story! Where's the sequel?
This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.
I read a lovely, mournful crossover with post-Narnia Susan Pevensie once, where Mary recruited Susan into the sisterhood of magic-wielding loners, drifting from lonely house to lonely house, healing the children and moving on. I could also totally see her being involved in setting up safe houses and underground railroads for Muggles in immediate danger during Grindelwald's time or Voldemort's first ascendancy or any of the other would-be wizard dictators who must have been springing up regularly for the last several thousand years.
Mary Poppins at the Archive of Our Own:
No Harry Potter crossovers that I see, and the usual warning that the stories listed there may not be to everyone's fancy, click at your own risk.
Previous Mary Poppins stories at yuletide:
May be some overlap, disclaimers apply, etc.
JZ, you could sign up for yuletide this year and request it...
Wouldn't it be lovely if Fay wrote it?
She'd do a stellar Mary Poppins.
She could even fix Bert.
Hah. I heard Dike Van Dyke on "Wait Wait" recently, who claimed that Bert's accent was a result of the dialect coach the studio had hired, and not his fault! He was very amusing.

Aha, the Kendra excuse.
If so, I can only assume the dialect coach was a member of the IRA who chose a unique way of striking a blow against England.
Well, he did claim the coach was Irish.
It's been fifty years: I'm inclined to cut the guy some slack.
Oh, wait, we're in Fanfic. Um, topic, topic: I'm having an interesting time writing in my first literary fandom, because CS Lewis was just as shaky a world-builder as any television franchise one might care to name. It's fun to poke holes in a beloved icon!
