It was almost in the cards. The last thing I said back home? "Well, if I don't make it to the library tonight, it's not the end of the world."
BOOM. Here we are.
Hello, friendly hallucinations. My name's Veronica Mars.
I would like to schedule a playdate with my niece, please.FILTERED TO HARRY & GINNY:
Hi. Would you guys like me to see about changing my housing? I should have probably offered that sooner, butI didn't really knowI still don't really know ifI'm the worst.
I miss baby you. You got so big and I've had no time to adjust.
I feel like I don't know you. And that's awful. And I told you that your parents split up. I'm the worst mum.
Oi, you. So.
Here's the thing. And I'm not saying it in person because this texting thing is grand. I can get everything out and not worry about you looking at my face, and I can edit what I have to instead of just vomiting up words and hoping they come out all right.
You should move back in with me. For real. For good. I know I've been leading you on a bit, and I wasn't trying to lead you anywhere, but I wasn't saying yes or no and now I'm saying yes. Yes, okay, let's give this another go, you and me. If you want me, I'm here. And I want you.
I don't want it to go back to how it was, because how it was was broken. I want it to be better than it was, because we're better, and sometimes I just look at your face and I hate how much I want to kiss it.
I miss you, is what I'm saying.
I may be drunk? A little drunk.
I have a question, and bear with me for how ridiculous it sounds. Was Donna Noble there all day? She spent the afternoon with me -- said that Dr. Crusher gave her permission to take the afternoon off. But she's telling me that she was in medical all day.
So. Er.
Family meeting.
Right, so I don't know if this has been done but humour me? I know there's a lot of us here, and I'm curious.
I'm Emmeline Vance, some of you know me, hello! It was November of 1983 before I arrived here. I was working as an Auror, but here I'm as a Soldier. I'm going to leave it at that because I doubt you lot care about shit like my favourite food and colour.
-- Advanced shield charms. The tricky part is we'll have to overlay them over the entire area and reverse them so they're actually rebounding toward the facility instead of keeping things from getting in.
-- Expansion charms, on rooms specifically. If any of you have ever gone camping or been out in the field extensively, standard issue tents have a low level expansion charm on them, as an example of what the goal is here. It's creating more space in a room than there appears to be. Anyone that knows how to achieve this would be extremely useful.
-- Sealing charms. Common for doors, making them only capable of being opened by whatever the spell designates. Obviously, this spell can only hold against so much force, which is where the shields will come in if it really comes to that.
» Malfoy, eh?
» I managed to forget what a little shite he was as a teenager.
» How are you and Harry doing?
