My dad's gone. My grandfather too.

Just thought you'd want to know.

Private to Percy
Would you like to go exploring around China together? It's not our world, but there still might be something useful there

Private to extended family
Has anyone else explored China yet? Are there any good areas or areas to avoid?

Ron's been sent back home.

I thought you ought to know before you see his name gone from the door.

[Rose]

I'm sorry Rose. He'll get to see his family again. After the war is done That counts as you too, eventually.

[Harry]

This is almost like when we were travelling. He didn't have a choice this time, but I think this place was nearly as bad for him. Perhaps worse. That doesn't mean I'm not going to miss him terribly.

[Lily Luna]

I'm sorry Lily, I know the train has been particularly unkind to you when it comes to family.. and that we really don't speak often enough.

All I have are my Astronomy books, and half a Runes worksheet.

I've scanned the library car for some books to look at, but it's hard without the rest of my schoolbooks. I don't want to fall behind and every day gone is another day missed.

I'd be grateful if anyone was willing to study together.

Did you really need to be so terribly abrasive toward Ron? You asked him.

Honestly, lecturing him how to treat family? Pot calling the kettle You really ought get off your high hippogriff and apologise, Percy.

[Private to Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Lily Evans, Hermione Granger, James Potter]

So...what is the best way to deal with your adult children when they arrive here? I'm finding it rather difficult to know what to say. Should I try to act fatherly? Or would it be more appropriate to attempt to act as a peer, since we are close in age?

Hi. I was told you might not know who I am, so I thought I would check instead of just announcing myself.

I'm Lucy. Your younger daughter.

aohhh this is bad. I never tripped this bad. seems real?

uhh if anyone can read this, do you have some spare clothes? I put this blanket on but it's makin me nuts itch somethin awful. Thanks

And who is percy? we're ROOMIES, laddy. Put your party shoes on dammit. nahhahaha

Angie are you here? anwar maxxxxxxxxamills, cass? Tone? or sid. mich?

[Private to Don Draper]

Hello.  My name is Harry Potter.  I'm Lily's father, the girl young woman you're now sharing a room with, and I thought it best to introduce myself before I threaten you.


[Public; After talking to Don.]

Lily Luna Potter.

[Private to Molly Weasley]

Molly, I really would like to speak to you in person, if you're free. Perhaps we could have tea?

We still need people for the PRANK WAR!

Come one, guys! You cannot tell me that you are not bored!

So far we have: Brittany, Claudia, Santana, George, Alex, Ginny and me! That's not enough.

Rules still haven't changed. We play in two teams and prank each other in the most creative way. Sign up till tomorrow evening and I will split up the teams and try to match them according to everyone's powers, that's why I'll need you to state if you have special skills.

Sooo... come on, and let us cure your boredom!

bloody hell

hello? george?
Are things meant to be this... trainy?

........

This doesn't look like the Ministry.....

Though, I have to say that this Muggle electronic thing is awesome!

Where am I?

HELLO.

I'M TOLD SOME OF MY BROTHERS ARE HERE? PERCY? RON? I'VE ALREADY TALKED TO GEORGE.

SORRY FOR NOT TYPING, I CAN'T GET THIS MUGGLE THING TO DO THE LETTERS RIGHT.

SIRIUS I'M SORRY I THREATENED TO KILL YOU. I GET IT NOW. PLEASE DON'T BE MAD AT ME.

(ooc: yes, she is yelling. for those familiar with HP, think Ron the first time he tried to use a telephone.)

ETA: (added during her conversation with Rose) I DON'T WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THE FUTURE. MY BROTHER JUST DIED, AND I'D LIKE TO ACTUALLY PROCESS THAT BOMBSHELL BEFORE HAVING MORE DROPPED ON ME.

[filtered away from children]

Well darlings. Seeing as the old ball and chain isn't here and I haven't even met him yet, I am considering myself for all intents and purposes on the market. And as it is a Saturday night, my being alone just will not do.

So, anyone else looking for a little excitement?

( Ron Weasley, you have One (1) New Message )

Right then, this is one hell of a trip but I'll get to that later. There are much more important matters at hand.

For instance: any one of you tossers going to fess up to mucking with my hair?

I'll give you, the wedding ring was almost funny. If it weren't completely out of my character to get hitched, that is.

( [Private to Hermione Granger] )

( [Private to Miss Dorny] )

It seems I have come across an unregistered portkey.

When I find out whose it is, they will be subject to quite significant fines for such irresponsible use of magic.

For the time being, would someone mind telling me where I am?
