It's nice to get signal even out here. I'd like to thank Tony and Pepper again for giving me such a nice view of the city ~~while dangling off the balcony ledge to get some air.~~

For those of us who grew up on Earth, or rather, a version of Earth - a little under 1% of the static that you see on your television set is a remnant of the Big Bang. If you were able to see microwave light instead of just visible light, the night sky would glow a bright, unforgiving white from the glowing heat of the ancient explosion. The atoms that make up your body are ancient as well, and recycled - so you are as much a part of Joan of Arc as you are Joseph Stalin. Humbling, somehow.

It's good getting perspective.

	Which is okay. Hey, I mean, Pottermore told me I'm a Gryffindor. What about you, Doc? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I get different things depending upon my mood at the time. Usually Ravenclaw, but I've gotten Slytherin once or twice. Not enough for a Hat Stall, though. I was Ravenclaw for Pottermore, so I guess that's what counts, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think that's the official ruling, yeah. I was toss-up between Gryffindor and Ravenclaw, but intentionally putting yourself in harm's way, like, ninety times a month counts for something in the end. Go fig. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That sounds like a very Gryffindor thing to do. I think it was the "will do anything to get scientific results" thing that lands me in the snake house, from time to time. Other than that I'm sort of a boring person. Any relation to a Dr. Richard Parker? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	C'mon, I bet you're an animal on karaoke night. In an abstract way, I guess? I'm not a local. And my father wasn't a doctor. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	purpleshorts 2012-12-14 03:28 am UTC (link)
	I don't really karaoke. Ah, all right. The wrinkling of the universes is quite complex. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	...how 'bout singing in the shower? Isn't it? You're not really wrong, I mean. I'm related to a Richard Parker, but he just had a different line of work. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	purpleshorts 2012-12-14 03:52 am UTC (link)
	...why are we talking about my singing habits, again? Huh. The one I knew was a scientist. Did a lot of work with genetics. Brilliant man. ~~He di~~ Oh (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oldparkerluck 2012-12-14 03:59 am UTC (link)
	Because there are way weirder things to be talking about, but we're keeping things friendly and shallow? Yeah, I did a little digging when I got here. Crazy to think I had more in common with another world's version of my dad than the one I actually sort of didn't really have anyway. You knew him? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	~~Hufflepuff~~ Gryffindor? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	myeu_muh 2012-12-14 03:35 am UTC (link)
	YES and don't give me that look like you're totally not sure about that answer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	purpleshorts 2012-12-14 03:38 am UTC (link)
	Gryffindor? Are you sure? I mean, I can see some Malfoy resemblances... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hey. HEY. Don't even start with me, boring Terry Boot. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Wait....what is Pottermore? YOU PEOPLE KEEP SURPRISING ME. Movies, toys, fake racing brooms...... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oldparkerluck 2012-12-14 04:25 am UTC (link)
	It's kind of like an informational annex to the books? By which I mean your lives. Uh. God, this is awkward. You can be sorted on it, and you can interact with scenes, and... okay, just go here: http://www.pottermore.com/ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	weasleygirl 2012-12-14 04:27 am UTC (link)
	Wow. You people really like us. Wow. I'm going to....sign up?.....is that weird? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oldparkerluck 2012-12-14 04:32 am UTC (link)
	Pffft, no. Hey, it's your world. You go forth and conquer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	weasleygirl 2012-12-14 04:34 am UTC (link)
	So, who are you? Sorry if thats nosy, I just haven't talked to many people beyond who I know from home. Branching out. And stuff. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oldparkerluck 2012-12-14 04:40 am UTC (link)
	Nah, it's cool with me. There's only about a hundred awesome people around. Luke Skywalker, seriously. Buffy Summers. I say branch away. Branch to your heart's desire. Oh, right. You asked who I am. Peter Parker. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	weasleygirl 2012-12-14 04:41 am UTC (link)
	....I have no idea who either of those people are. Probably why I'm branching out. No fun being in a bubble. Ah, well nice to meet you Peter Park. I'm Ginny Weasley. (Reply to this) (Parent)
