How do you know when someone's gone home? There has to be some sort of indication.

So, my first "odd occurrence" here at the castle and it seems to be an aging event. If you've grown a beard, I want pictures.

I want to go exploring, I'm missing my dance lessons. Do you think there is any place where I can take a lesson or two?

Right, these ornament things. We're just supposed to trust that they do what the mysterious note says? Fat chance of that, Godric only knows what they could've slipped in there and I'm not keen on spending Boxing Day in the infirmary with boils or purple skin or the like. Terribly easy to slip something nasty into a bit of chocolate, I ought to know that.

Still, if they do work... might be nice to see James Remus don't kid yourself, mate, it'd be James an old friend again. Anybody had luck with it yet?

So as it’s been explained to me we are here for an unknown amount of time? I’ve never heard of this place before but I suppose that’s no surprise if it is a different reality as they claim. Honestly I just felt a little dazed when they told me what had happened.

I guess the next thing to do is take a look around this place and see what I can find. I’ve been given a map by the lady who was here when I arrived so at least that is handy.

Oh my name is Tifa Lockhart, I guess I'll get to know everybody in time.

So I’m not entirely sure I like being manhandled by a bunch of strangers while being under some sort of hypnotic spell that makes me compliant. No, scratch that – I’m damn bloody sure I don’t like it. Is that anyway to treat someone who just arrived in another world? It’s just rude, that’s what it is. I’d say as if I need a shower now but I feel as if I’d been sick they’d have put me into some sort of decontamination chamber if it was necessary. Still, it might help.

Right, so, they filled me in on what was going on around here. Another planet, which by the way has a rubbish name with an equally ridiculous-sounding land – country? I feel as though I’ve stepped into a storybook. They also said we can’t pop home until this place lets us. Guess that means I should introduce myself to my fellow misplaced travellers.

Hullo, my name is Al Potter. Looks like I’m your newest arrival here.

Ron's gone.

I usually don't mind the rain, but does the weather have to be so depressing tonight?


[ooc: The weather widget has been showing it raining for the past 2 hours and looks to continue all night...]

Proof that if you are loud and obnoxious enough about it, wishes really do come true.

Which means a certain cat’s hissing and spitting is somewhat concerning.

For those feeling left out because this place didn't 'assign' them a new best friend forever, I'm just putting this out there, there are magical ways to get the same affect.

Just saying! You, too, could be like us popular kids.

Am I the only one who thinks that was timely?

You know I can leave no good deed un-repaid.

Hard to guess on my own, but anyone know how long people have been aging up and down? It's hard to settle in when people aren't who they're meant to be.

So. Just how much trouble might I be in? On a sliding scale? A LARGE sliding scale. From 1-1000? 1000 being the worst, 1 being who the bloody hell is this annoying twat. Just how much trouble am I in? This cannot be good.

Bollocks.

I am so

Brilliant and just looking out the window

Yeah. This is going to end well. Can see that right now.

So it seems that all last week I was a vampire, who knew? Apparently you all thought I was just being an asshole. Thanks, good to know how you all think of.

But, I don't seem to remember anything that happened. If I did something to you, let me know and I'll issue you a personal, heartfelt apology.

[Tracey]
I heard you tried biting my brother while a vampire. Did you use fire or acid to sanitize your mouth?

I heard you were a vampire, too.

[Ickles Reg and Sirius]
I heard you two had some issues last week. I'm sorry I wasn't there to help.

I'm so wretchedly bored. It's painful. I need someone tothing to do.

ugh my head still hurts a little i need some advil or something ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

i cant sleep

So Quidditch doesn't seem to be a hit with the masses - for shame. But I'm no less restless or bored or, as Dr. Sweets say, in need of something to keep my mind from. Who here knows football - soccer for those who need the clarification? There has to be at least 5-7 other people who know football.

ETA: Football, on the open stretch of green east of the pool at 1 pm.

So I'm out of this muggle money. I need a job...any openings or suggestions to where I could locate one?
