The Doorway: a panfandom game

OI, YOU LOT FROM HOGWARTS! Sound off! I know you're here, because Katie filled me in! GET YOUR ARSES OVER HERE AND GIVE ME A PROPER WELCOME!

For those of you who don't know me, I'm Alicia Spinnet. This whole thing is pretty mad, but I have always wanted to see New York.

[...]

[ FILTER: SIRIUS BLACK ]

I don't care how you do it, but get me out of this apartment right now.

[/filter]

Lily's gone. I'm so sorry.

( Cut, not filtered! )

I haven't actually watched the movies about Dad/home, but this makes me miss Hogwarts. I don't think I've ever actually missed Hogwarts, even at home.

FILTERED TO HP NEXT GEN:

Are any of you not going to that prom thing or should I resign myself to a night of desperation where I sit myself in front of the telly watching bad reality shows and drown my sorrows in wine, macaroni and cheese, and hot wings?

FILTER

I was told today that I have a really good fake British accent. So. Go me.

Happy Mother's Day, Mum and Gran! :)

[alicia]

You, me, dancing, prom? I promise to get you spiked punch and only let you streak in my flat.

[albus]

We're stuck here and you still run away. Seriously, man, when are you going to face any of your problems?

[ooc: posted much earlier today]

Filtered: Lily Luna Potter

According to tumblr, you will eventually have many babies with either Lorcan or Scorpius, so HAPPY EVENTUALLY MOTHER'S DAY!

That's not the point of this filter though. The point is that I am going to prom with Oliver and there is a dire need to go shopping for a dress and shoes.

Filtered: George Weasley

Um Alright, so you know how I'm 24 and can date whoever I want and you didn't seem that weirded out by James and Alicia? Or at least I hope you didn't. We're going out. You, me and the lovely and honored-every-day-but-especially-today Angelina Weasley. After joining Grams little get-together meal on the 13th floor, of course.

Filtered: Angelina Weasley

First of all, Mum, HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! Even if technically you're not one yet at this stage of your life but you get there eventually so you're getting the special treatment anyway.

Aaaaand on that note, I'm going to bring up something that might seem a little peculiar to bring up now and I'm not entirely sure if it's appropriate (I do that often, though, you get used to it): I'm going to prom with Oliver. I told him I'd talk to you and Dad and make sure you're both okay with it so. I think there will be that talk with Dad coming up very soon.

Dear fuck ups: Fess up.

The more we know, the easier this'll be to reverse. Right?

FILTERED TO ALBUS POTTER:

She's beautiful.

FILTER

Oi, so the white jacket blokes assure me that this is not, in fact, some elaborate Weasley prank and I am, in fact, in New York City, America, and that apparently here I'm fiction.

And there's no bloody Quidditch. Yes, that WAS the first thing I asked about.

For anyone who knows me, and I'm told there are quite a few of you, you can put down that hankie and stop your sobbing because Oliver Wood has arrived!

For those that don't know me, I'm sure you will, very soon. I'm kind of a big deal.

Filter to Victoire Weasley

Happy birthday, darling! I'm not sure what you have planned for today, but I would love it if you stopped by! I have a gift for you.

Filter to Lily Luna Potter

I'm so sorry that I missed your birthday dear. If you'd like to stop by sometime today, I have a gift for you.

Now today seems like a perfect day to take a walk around the park. I hope the weather stays nice like this for a while. I find myself walking through Central Park more and more these days. I'm glad I took the day off, I think I'll try to spend the day outside.

( Delivery for Lily Luna Potter )

I'm glad it's a beautiful day today.

I've organized dinner tonight at my flat, all catered, etc. so no one has to worry about it. As usual, bring whomever you'd like, but especially your cousins.

Filter: George Weasley

All right? Dinner tonight, if you feel up to it.

Filter: Teddy Lupin

All right today? Anything I can do?

Filter: Lily Evans & James Potter, Sirius Black

I'm having a quiet family dinner tonight at my flat, to mark the anniversary of [...] a lot of things. I'd love it if you could come.

Filter: Severus Snape

I'd be honored if you joined me and my family for dinner at my flat tonight, sir.

Filter: Ron & Hermione

Dinner per usual tonight, though Ron I realize you might not know about that tradition. Then this weekend, we can go away, yeah?

Filter: Private

It's easier, here, because there aren't any expectations.

You can stop guarding your Butterfingers now, New York City. Dominique's gone home.

FILTER: LILY LUNA POTTER

Happy birthday, Lil. I hope the arrangement was as good as it looked online.

( Package delivered to Lily Luna Potter, 12:01am )

What's tomorrow?

Oh, yeah. It's my birthday.

FILTERED: JAMES SIRIUS, ALBUS SEVERUS, LILY LUNA, JAMES POTTER AND LILY EVANS

So Harry and I broke up. Thought you should hear it from someone directly involved.

Doesn't change how brilliant I think you all are, cheesy cliche words of optimism here.

Okay, apparently there is this thing on the internet. It's called Pottering, which is where someone takes a broom, jumps with it between their legs, someone else snaps a photograph, and then they're forever immotalized as looking as though they're riding said broom.

And it is brilliant.

( Cut, not filtered. )

One thing I always wanted while at Hogwarts. A school dance with The Weird Sisters.

I took a train out of the city for the first time. Suppose I could have apparated Went up just north of the city and did some hiking. It almost felt like camping. Haven't done that in years. Don't really fancy camping ever again, honestly.

Filter: Ron & Hermione

I feel a bit like I'm losing my mind. You two want to come by tonight? I'll provide the refreshments. I need my two oldest mates round.

Filter: JSP, Lily Luna, Albus

Now that I've had a chance to get out of the city and regroup (that's Auror speak for calm down), I wanted to take a moment to apologize if I said anything while all riled up that upset you. You know how I get when someone starts insulting me or condescending to me and such. For the record, in case it wasn't clear, I never threatened any sort of physical harm to Gray -- he's not worth my time in that respect. Or anyone's time, really. He's textbook narcissist, and I really should have known better, but I couldn't help myself. Didn't expect everything to get so out of hand though. Suppose we've got Ms. Carter to thank for that.

Filter: JSP

Wanted to thank you for standing up for your mother the way you did. That was great to see. Really, though, Zabini has always been an arse, so I didn't expect anything less from him.

I got to go to work with my brother this week, it was brilliant. I'm hopeful they'll offer me a job. I need one. Soon. I have no marketable skills for this world. It's nothing like Japan, but it's a paycheque and I can't be picky right now, in a Muggle world without any magical creatures. Or any sort of magic, for that matter. It's frustrating and lonely. Yes, Lor is here, and I'm so glad that he's here with me, but all of my friends, colleagues, romantic love interests ... they're all in another time and place and I can't get to them.

Filter: Next-gen and their parents

I was doing some thinking, and I know I don't know any of you at all. I know Lily was named after my mother, but that's it, and I'm not even certain of my parents' ability to send holiday cards with photos. Some of you might know Lor a little bit, but since we're all here together, and I know my mother was closely connected to your families, I thought we could have a party on the 13th floor next weekend. Get to know each other a little bit - I can talk all of your ears off about Japan, and you can tell me all about Britain. Not to mention all the places Lor and I saw before we were nine. I'll figure out food and everything, but next weekend? Does that work for everyone?
