Second Chances: the Network

Seeing all the chatter about Prom almost makes me miss high school. And then I remember how stressed out I was about finals at the same time.

Uh... ever get so busy with prom and graduation photos that you uh... forget to celebrate your own birthday?

Oops.

plus with mum and uncle perce leaving it

[Dad & Albus]

I've decided I'm going to apply for a business loan instead of college.

This isn't going to make sense to a lot of you


but there is nothing I miss more than how good snacks were when I was high.

These are like dragons for children. They're almost cuddly compared to what I'm used to.

Al, Lily, I know this probably doesn't matter as much to you, so it's fine if you want to sit this out.

But, for everyone else -- you know what's coming up. We should do something. Though I don't know what.

I saw the dragons. I sat outside the field where they seem to be hanging out/living. It was kind of relaxing watching them fly and just chill. So many colors and sizes. I wonder how long they'll be here.

Dragons. REAL. LIVE. Breathing fire DRAGONS!


and Dustin isn't here to try to adopt one. Kinda wish him and the rest of the gang could be here to see this.

How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?

Someone should put some kind of warning on games that don’t have any real obvious objective so you know going in that 13 hours later you won’t have actually achieved anything.

Wwwwhgat tyhe fucjk is goimng on!?

WHJY AMK I GREEDN?!!

[Nancy might be having a hard time typing with...large thumbs]

Are you really here, too?

Hey.

I hear this place likes to bounce me around.

If we were (new) friends before, I'm sorry I don't remember being here.

Well, this is definitely not Tahiti.


I'm Phil, though it seems some of you might know me as Agent/Director Coulson. Formerly of SHIELD. I was told there might be folks I know here?


Matt Murdock - Looks like I'm your new roommate. I tend to keep things tidy, and am usualy a pretty good roommate.

First thought: Magic is back and unfiltered! It worked! We did it!

Second thought: This doesn't look like the Library of the Neitherlands.

Third thought: Well, this lady kind of looks like a Librarian, though?

Fourth and all subsequent thoughts after that Angie lady started talking: Oh, I've been here before, and I have friends here already (Hi, Julia! Hi, Eliot!), but I don't remember a single thing about it. Well, this is awkward and confusing.

Soooo hi again, I guess?

What manner of infernal racket are those sirens going off?

Also, I haven't been slapped this much since I was trapped in a punishment loop. Can't say I find that part fun.

I feel like I should be used to this but having everyone gasp and ask "oh my gosh, how?!" when I go somewhere is going to get old fast.

Top that off with I now live alone and I've got a little shark at home who is likely eating the entire apartment, and I'm ready to get back any time now.

SO that jungle made getting in and out of the building interesting to say the least! Luckily I didn't have any run ins with anything too terrible.

Is this something that happens a lot around here?

I've got an entire quidditch pitch and nothing to do with it, and that's making me sad.

So, if you've ever wanted to learn to fly, I'm willing to teach you how. (That includes you, Ron.) It's with brooms, not just someone flying on their own. I don't know how to do that, mostly because at home it's.....heavily frowned upon (Mr. Auror, back me up.). Hope and Julia gave me ideas for how to protect anyone who falls off, so it'll be perfectly safe.

And you can't fly very high till you know what you're doing. Cushioning charms can only do so much!

I don't stress bake, but today I made a double batch of banana nut muffins because I was in the mood to bake. If anyone would like some let me know and I'll drop you some off or you can come pick them up. Your choice.

ETA: There's 1 bag of muffins left. Thanks to everyone who claimed the others!

I truly love this time of year. I hope nothing spoils it like it last year's crazy elves.

Honey, we need your list for Santa. Don't tell me you don't need anything either. Tony will just end up buying out an entire store at that rate.

I almost forgot to thank May and everyone else for the awesome Thanksgiving Dinner. I'd say it was just like my mom used to make, but it was honestly better.

I know it's tough for a lot of us, but you really made it feel like home for the day.
