Before I forget to ask, do I actually have a ... place to stay?

	You get excited quickly, don't you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hey, finding someone else who knows how to cook in this crazy place? Is worth getting excited over. But yes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre brainiac 2012-09-02 08:10 pm UTC (link)
	Too many psychopaths and soldiers, too few cooks? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre animattor 2012-09-02 08:21 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, something like that. I'm just doing my best to make sure everyone makes it past the initial crazy arrival. A little medicine, a little cooking, a little making the street come alive and separate people... whatever it takes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can brew potions for when conventional Muggle medicine runs out and I can't be the only cook around, right? Sure, I cook with seaweed, but that's ... A long story? One about pirates and islands. This isn't my first rodeo. I'll be fine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Awesome! I'm sure there are others, like the Doc, but most have been quiet about it, so far. Huhn, Sounds like fun. We should hang out and swap stories sometime. I'll trade you dragons and Tortuga for your pirates and islands. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	My uncle Charlie is a Dragonologist. And sorry ... I so have been to Tortuga. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Awesome! No fair! But that's cool! Hmmm, how about Dinosaurs and zombies? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre brainiac 2012-09-02 08:37 pm UTC (link)
	Knew someone who had a pet dinosaur and we had a zombie infestation, yeah. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre animattor 2012-09-02 08:39 pm UTC (link)
	Me too! Birds that repeat back someone else's voice, and candy that turns you into odd things? And a train running underwater for a week while a giant octopus tries to examine you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre brainiac 2012-09-02 08:40 pm UTC (link)
	Hm, no on the birds. Yes on the candy. No train, but I was on the Dutchman's ship. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre animattor 2012-09-02 08:45 pm UTC (link)
	Wow. Sounds like you have had a very interesting life. Definitely some stories to hear there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre brainiac 2012-09-02 08:50 pm UTC (link)
	And to think, I'm only 26. Ever want a break somewhere dreadfully mundane? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre animattor 2012-09-02 08:55 pm UTC (link)
	I'm just 18 now. And I had one for three years. It was boring as heck! But not bad after a magical train and a castle in Hell. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre brainiac 2012-09-02 08:56 pm UTC (link)
	Hell? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre animattor 2012-09-02 08:57 pm UTC (link)
	Spent two years there, a castle on the outskirts of Hell. Not the best two years of my life. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre brainiac 2012-09-02 08:59 pm UTC (link)
	I can imagine. I ... know demons. Fallen angels, actually. When we had those shared dreams, I saw that place. Which is not somewhere I plan on ending up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre animattor 2012-09-02 09:00 pm UTC (link)
	I was lucky, a few of the demons there were quietly rebelling. They kept me from being too... affected. But it was still a lot of running for my life, a lot of things I never, ever want to see again, and two years I would rather have spent almost anywhere else. Good. It's... I can't even really describe it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre brainiac 2012-09-02 09:05 pm UTC (link)
	Well, you don't need to. You know, I was tutored by Rosier? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre animattor 2012-09-02 09:07 pm UTC (link)
	...holy moley! I heard stories about... what was he like? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre brainiac 2012-09-02 09:12 pm UTC (link)
	He's ... funny. OCD. A fantastic salsa dancer. Fantastic teacher, okay librarian. Very handsome, extremely loyal. A fighter and definitely a rebel. Very faithful to his husband. And he's one of my best friends. We met when I was a firstie at Hogwarts. We got sucked into a book together - Alice in Wonderland. Unfortunately, we both got to wear Alice's dress.

	Awesome! ...oh dear. That could be interesting. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre brainiac 2012-09-02 09:16 pm UTC (link)
	Hey, we made it out. I believe they used to be a form of entertainment for wizards, until they got into Muggle hands. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre animattor 2012-09-02 09:21 pm UTC (link)
	Good! What were, the books? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Matt/Deirdre brainiac 2012-09-02 09:22 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. I mean, Alice in Wonderland is one thing. The Pit and the Pendulum is another. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
