Damn! I only went out for chips...

Okay, wow. My cousin's apparently in a shit mood, but everybody's it's all gonna be okay.

Oh, is that the date?

Explains the shit mood, then.

[Sam]
Sounds like there's more trouble here than there was on the train.

[Cas]
How are you?

Hello, there.

My name is Remus Lupin. For those of you who don't know, I am a wizard.

I'm not sure if it has been explained to anyone, but the creatures that appeared on the island a few days ago were magical creatures from my world. Oh, actually- this is more complicated than I anticipated. Non-magical people cannot see these creatures, but if you felt terribly cold and sad, like all the joy had been sucked out of the room, that was probably them.

Well, that aside, it got me thinking that it could perhaps be beneficial for us to have some classes, to share our knowledge about this sort of thing. We could educate each other about the dark creatures of our respective worlds, and share methods of coping with them. We may even be able to come up with some alternative strategies we can share, and of course non-magical people would be more than encouraged to join in- although teaching a magical defense would be somewhat pointless, we could at least teach you how to recognise such creatures, and things you can do to protect yourself without magic.

Furthermore, if there is anyone from my own world who would be interested in studying together, please do get in touch. I was so close to finishing my NEWTs, and it seems a shame that my education should forever remain at a standstill there. I am quite good at DADA and Charms, but somewhat lacking in potions skills.

Okay, well. You can let me know what you think.

- Remus Lupin.

Is it full moon tonight, by any chance? I'm feeling hinky

Because I apparently have taken on the role of the Roy Hinkley of this island, I'm contacting you all to help better organise the matter of security. You have all either been patrolling, expressed an interest in patrolling or have otherwise had something to say on the issue. The purpose of this email is therefore threefold:

1. We'll start with the simplest first. I think it would be a good idea to have a CB channel dedicated to security. I'll probably take the first number between 10 and 40, so if there's a favourite number of yours in there, I'd get in quick.

2. Next, we need to get to know each other. Or at least what you're all capable of and what experience you might have had back at home.

3. The intent here is to form teams with the hope of organising a proper roster so you all get some breaks. Now, I've already mentioned to Tony that I'm probably going to need some help with this, so if any of you have similar experience as part of a security agency or team, your knowledge is going to be more useful here than mine. If you do have members of your team here, I assume you were all chosen for a reason and I don't really want to mess with that. So while you're letting us know what you can do, maybe mention who you do that with if they're here. That said, I imagine we'll be looking for some diversity amongst the teams. For more reasons than one.

If there's anyone missing from this email that you feel would be interested in helping out with security, you're welcome forward it to them. Let's try and get the first two points out of the way before we start debating methods though.

Thanks,
Nick Cutler

(OOC: Again, backdated to early Monday because I fail. I'm happy to handwave that people responded to this, but you're also welcome to respond if you'd like to. Oh, and I could probably do actual groups if anyone wanted. XD)

Alright, platypus, I know I made you mad but really? This is going too far.

How very interesting.

So I think I need a job but I don't know as what. I've never had a job.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
