Second Chances: the Network

If anyone comes across a yellow water dish with "Emma" on it, could you let me know?

So, something weird happened.

This place sure does love messing with the veil and ripping it down in the worst way possible. My head feels like it's in a vice! It's not so great when your third eye comes peeking through in the middle of History. At least the astral spirits didn't come barging through.

Astral vomit: 2
Emily: 0

So much for having a roommate. I'm cursed.

Say a girl wants to try and make something special for her boyfriend. Maybe something that reminds him of home? British faire, I guess? Something that is not fish and chips.

I've been feeling a little off since the whole...villain thing. I think it's been before that. I don't know what it is but it's just weird. I know there are other magic users in the building but you both know me better than they do. Have your magic meters been pinging anything odd? My ring feels heavier too

I was going to sweep my wife off for an anniversary holiday but then we decided to be visited by a homicidal maniac who I can't say I appreciate having here.

So I'm going to do that now. We're leaving Friday, Emily no wild parties, Ned don't burn the shop down.

Are they gone yet? Is it over?

I will never answer texts or emails with one-word questions/answers again. To not have the ability to carry on a proper conversation was the absolute worst. If you were frustrated with me, imagine how I was feeling. It complicated practice and lessons, but I didn't blow anything up or summon any demons. I call that a win.

Dr Strange I treated myself to a huge haul of discount Valentine's Day candy and chocolate, so if you didn't get to the store or you already ate yours, stop by. I'll share!

I think we deserve a date night. Maybe two? A magical adventure? I'm feeling a little better about using magic again. Well, using it more than I have been. It's a shame we can't play Dimensional Door tag! I don't think any doors around here are to other dimensions or worlds. Even at the Sanctum here, they don't really lead to anywhere fun.

That's it. I am teaching everyone a second language if they do not already know one.

Take your pick.

Either the whole "true love's kiss breaks curses" thing is garbage or Christine married the wrong man.

I'm glad others have already been dealing with this. I'd hate to be pissed about my comatose wife on top of wondering who the hell else is sending her flowers.

I guess I can't complain. Al's pretty okay as far as being tethered to a person goes. He doesn't even smell that bad.

I promise that's a compliment if you knew the rest of the story.

It's bullshit that this place won't even let us grieve in peace. It has to mess up our lives in the process.

At least I'm paired with someone well over drinking age.

[Christine and Emily]
I don't say it enough, but I love you both.

Help?

[PRIVATE TO PEOPLE WHO HAVE THEIR MEMORIES]

Right, so. What're we doing about this? Anything? Riding it out until folks hopefully stop forgetting who they are?

Can someone help me? I read through this device and it doesn't make sense, but the name display says Albus Potter.

Does anyone else just get some weird vibes on Halloween? Outside the normal vibes, of course.

Time for a reminder from your not-always-friendly neighborhood neurosurgeon turned naturopath. Lavender can be calming and turmeric can help inflammation but for fuck's sake, please get a flu shot. Homeopathy can only do so much.

The Chinatown Autumn Moon Festival takes place September 23 and 24. I think I'd like to take the boys. It feels like the perfect way to experience another culture for them. Would anyone like to join us?

I want to go home.
What is the point of this---
The gloomy weather fits my mood.

Looks like I'm down a roommate again.

I’m used to watching people vanish into thin air, but this was still a different sort of experience. I know she’s happy at home, but I also know a lot of us will miss her.

Potters, Weasleys, etc*

Let’s get together tonight - at mine or we could go out somewhere.

*This includes Potter/Weasley adjacents like Hermione, Adaine & Emily

Still not the weirdest thing I've been through. Pretty sure Doctor S is actually more chill at the moment. (Kidding!)
