Dorcas and I have decided to experiment with cocktails. It'll be at my house Thursday at 7:00. If you're a friend of hers ours, you're invited. If I don't know you and someone we know can vouch for you, you're invited. If you're a crazy killer, you're not invited.

Well, I smell a conspiracy. Toffees? Absurd.

[Heavily warded to former Order members + Hogwarts professors + close friends of Minerva]

It has come to my attention that Minerva McGonagall will be awarded an Order of Merlin, First Class within the coming weeks. Should you wish to attend this ceremony celebrating her achievements, there are a few concessions she has requested I make of you:

No cake

No balloons

No public announcements

No unnecessary fanfare

Assuming you're capable of this, the details are below. For those of you who try to attend and break this agreement, I will personally ensure that you regret it. This is about Minerva's desire for a modest event, not whatever grandstanding you feel the need to make.

[Date, time, & location of the ceremony.]

Who: Edgar Bones and Marlene McKinnon

Today it's Whiskey Sour Day!

The whiskey sour is made with whiskey (often bourbon), lemon juice, sugar, and optionally, a dash of egg white. It is shaken and served either straight up or over ice.

The traditional garnish is half an orange slice and a maraschino cherry.

Its first mention goes back to 1870, however the ancient Egyptians had a very similar drink (without the egg white) with higher dose of lemon and sugar. It's first mention goes back to 1534 BC.

I've solved the mystery of the spontaneous kissing.

It's an elaborate marketing campaign for The Cure's upcoming tour.



The power of muggle media, ey?

Marauders! is an AU 80s game based upon three major 'fixes' to canon. First, Peter died rather than give up the Potters, and despite Voldemort ripping the secret from his mind that fateful Halloween night had a rather different outcome. James and Lily survived, and Voldemort is presumed dead. Harry's still got his scar, but Dumbledore says not to worry about it. Second, Regulus got the ring to Dumbledore and Dumbledore was able to destroy it without cursing himself. Regulus was presumed dead as well, but not everything is as it seems. Third, the Lestranges were defeated before they could drive the Longbottoms insane, and are currently languishing in Azkaban while the Longbottoms (among others) are alive and mostly well. Current game plots: A dark-wizard cult has been kidnapping and killing people in the name of power. An unlikely source comes forward with information on how to stop them. Oh, and Harry Potter's pirate-themed birthday is a go. Main Comm | OOC Comm | Mod Journal Rules | Holds/Cast | Application | Wanted
