Time-turners
What do you know about time-turners?
I'm trying to write a time-turner fic and I want to get it as correct as possible. That means I need to know what is canon when it comes to time-turners and what I can "claim" is the deal with them in my fic :)
For instance, if a person gets thrown back 20 years back in time. Will that person need to stay in the "time-turner"era for 20 years or is there any way to get back before that?
Does the time-turner "know" that you are going to use it, and the events that you cause will already have happened? (Like when Harry cast the stag-patronus the first time?) I'm a bit confused by the whole thing, but would really like to try to write this fic :D
Tell me everything you know is canon, and if you have theories of your own or have read some good time-turner fics I would appreciate that too, just let me know what is canon and not :D
I hope I get a ton of comments on this one :D
First draft for the fic is due February 7th and posting begins in March

From the lexicon...
Here is what the HP Lexicon says about it... I really thought they would have more info then this....

Time-Turner
The Time-Turner is a small silver hourglass worn on a chain around the neck. It's a very powerful and dangerous magical item which literally turns back time for the user, one hour per inversion of the glass.
Hermione used a Time-Turner for the 1992 - 1993 [Y12 - Y13] school year to allow her to attend more classes than there were hours for in the day (PA21).
Hermione and Harry used a Time-Turner to go back in time three hours and rescue Buckbeak and Sirius Black from a terrible fate (PA21).
Time-Turners are carefully controlled by the Ministry of Magic (PA21).

Yep.. so helpful. LOL
Re: From the lexicon...
A part of me really hope that not too much is explained in canon, because that leaves it more up to me ;) lol
But thank you for checking it out :D
