Finnigan's RPG

[Warded to Angelina, Katie, and Oliver]
Ladies and Gentleman,

Are you by any chance free for dinner tonight... sans kidlets?


[Warded to Adrian]
I'm going to talk to Katie and Angie tonight, and I'm thinking maybe dinner in the new house? What do you think? And... do you want to join us? I've invited Oliver, too, because he should know as well.

[Private to Alicia] -- OK. So. I found this bottle of whiskey and I think it'll be my toast to the end of an era here at the flat. But this, of course, means we should pick a date. I'm a strong man, but there's only so much temptation I can stand and this bottle is calling my name. Seductively. Sort of like you do very late at night.

I found a gorgeous bottle of 60-year-old whiskey while cleaning out the back of my kitchen cabinets today. Who wants to do a tasting with me?

Alicia -- The house is set for move in any time you like. I know there's packing to be done and we've still got to sit down with the twins (I assume?), but I wanted to let you know and see if you have any thoughts?

Theo -- I'd love to meet soon to chat about the job at my lab. What do you thinK? Are you still interested?

Activity check on 28th October will end here!

How are we still only middle of the pack? Fucking hell we're better than this. All this hard work, the summer of planning, it isn't paying off. What is going wrong? We need to work harder, or at the very least I need to stop slacking and go to other games to observe our opponents and their new plays. I won't settle for this mediocre performance.

Another win for Puddlemere and a huge congrats to all players and teams. Also, massive congrats to Aidan for new position in Kenmare; can't wait to play against you!

Otherwise life is the same, but the introduction of kittens into my life has definitely made things a tad, erm, interesting. How can something so small have so much energy? They're little furry bludger-snitches rolled into a tiny purring, mewling ball. They're cute, though.

So, Gofraidh Damhán is out for the remainder of the season. He's well on the way to recovery and uncertain if he'll remain with the Kestrels anyway; contract renewal is coming up.

Riordan Fionola has taken his place as primary Seeker for the next undetermined amount of time.

This being said, there was a need for a reserve Seeker. Was.

I'm back with the Kestrels.

I've got a small batch of fire in a jar available if anyone's looking as the summer winds down. I know they're more popular in the summer and the winter, so I'll give them at a discount, I'm just cleaning out my storage space.

Also, I'm looking for someone who'd like to help me around the building a bit in the couple weeks - helping me to organize, clean out old ingredients, odd jobs like that. I'll pay well, of course, and you can pretty much make your own hours as long as they're in the day/evening as I'm always in the lab anyway. Plus, if you're interested in potions or herbology (or apothecary work, more generally), it's good experience, too. If anyone's interested, let me know.

FALCONS! FALCONS! FALCONS! FALCONS! FALCONS!

I'm so, so happy that we continued the good start to the season on Thursday.

Not going to lie, it was hilarious seeing my brother try to hit on one of the players after the match. He failed SO miserably that it was even more amazing a sight than that third goal.

And on top of that I managed to wangle myself a cheeky behind the scenes tour for the next home match.

Best fucking sport in the world.

I wanted to thank you for meeting with me last month about the property. I was wondering when you think the purchase might go through and be finalized?

( Wards to Adrian, Pandora, and NPC - cut for some language )

[Warded to Richard] I'm looking into purchasing what is currently a muggle property and I was hoping you might have some insight, would you be able to meet with me sometime to discuss it?

[Warded to Alicia] -- I've been thinking about what you asked and well... We should talk. Wednesday night? Can you get the sitter for the twins?

It feels odd. This. Knowing that in just two weeks the League will start again and that right now, all over the country, teams are training like madmen while Healers are working overtime to ensure that everybody's in tip-top shape for the season and arguing with players about the importance of following the individualized diets for them... and for the first time since Hogwarts, I'm not part of that. Instead I'm allocated to simply cheering from the stands, which is great! I love it! It just feels odd.

[Warded to Adrian]
I have enough on my plate and I'm making big changes, but it just doesn't... I don't know. Want to come look at houses with me one of these days?

[Warded to Oliver]
You alright? How's your head? What did your Healer say?

[Warded to Genie]
This year, the Foundation has one first-year student (other than Owen). He's a sweet kid with a goofy sense of humour, and we have been supporting him and his Muggle family since the war. Like all first-years, he needs a lot of things before the school year starts, and I was wondering if you and Owen would like to help him out with that? That way the boys can meet and they won't be surrounded by complete strangers on the Express.

[Public] -- The muggle bombings this morning... I don't have words. We here in the wizarding community know how horrible terrorism is. Is there anything we can do as a community to help? Without outing ourselves, of course... I know McLaggen's wants to make a donation - can Gringotts help with that, maybe?

[Warded to Lavender] -- Were you all involved in the clean up at all today? Are you ok?

[Warded to Zacharias Smith] -- Mr. Smith, I wanted to check in on you today. Did the sleep potion help the migraine? No side effects, I hope?

I hate headaches that won't go away even when you take something.

[To Alicia] -- Lovely love of mine - I think we should go to Pub Trivia tonight. No, I haven't lost my mind, I just think it'd be brilliant to watch you clean up against absolutely everybody there. The bonus topic tonight? Muggle and Magical Maladies. What do you say? The twins could use some junk food, right?

[Warded to Alicia] -- Thank you, thank you, thank you for an amazing weekend. Can I return the favor? Rome? Soon? I have a couple of potions that need bottling this coming weekend so can't then, but after, what would work for you and the nanny?

What does one do for Fathers Day when their father isn't quite on normal speaking terms with them?
