IT'S BLOODY HOT IN HERE
(no, really. it's seriously hot.)
it's the summer holidays! a perfect time to travel, relax, spend time with loved ones and bask in the sun. the wizarding world is lively with energy at this time of year. everyone seems to want to make the most of their break before september comes around the corner and life returns to its normal, mundane pace. it has been especially exciting with the sporadic and strange appearances of old and new faces. some claim to be from a different world while others claim to be from a different time. then, there are the ones who have simply found themselves waking up to be remarkably younger or older. just remember to keep to your curfews, half-bloods and muggle-borns! those eerie disappearances are still happening in an increasingly alarming rate...


MINISTRY OF MAGIC



for the ones who don't have the good fortune of going on holiday, you won't have to worry about having nothing to do, especially if you're part of the ministry of magic! with all the anomalies happening, you're going to have your hands full registering, documenting, interviewing and/or helping with a multitude of busywork relating to the newcomers. or maybe your job doesn't have anything to do with that. maybe you're on the opposite end and you've been brought in. or maybe you're just a tourist and you want to see if you can catch a glimpse of the minister for magic. whatever your reason is, welcome and stay out of people's way!


DIAGON ALLEY



everyone loves to go shopping and what better place to do it than diagon alley? you'll find mills of people looking at all the different items on sale or on display in store windows. maybe you're here to purchase materials for the upcoming school year or you're out on a date with your significant other. or maybe you actually own or work at one of the many shops here. whatever your reason is, you better be ready for the crowd and the heat.


KNOCKTURN ALLEY



oh no! what are you doing here? turn back right now! knockturn alley is no place for you to be. well, at least it isn't if you aren't a dark arts practitioner or you're not part of some nefarious secret group. just turn around and go back to diagon alley. it's much nicer there, friendlier and safer. have you not heard about all the disappearances going on? you're only asking for trouble stepping into a place like this, even if it's remarkably cool here.


M.I.A.V.I.



not in the mood to go out? or maybe you're stuck in the waiting room at st. mungo's trying to figure out why you're suddenly 10 years older and you need a distraction. disregarding the reason, it's sure a good thing you've conveniently brought along your m.i.a.v.i. so feel free to browse the public network, create your own post, or private message someone!


OTHER

not interested in any of the options above? feel free to make up your own! the wizarding world is huge, so get creative with it. the setting is the summer of 1980. have fun testing out and shaping your characters, mingle with others, and start getting those crs down!

Alright, have at it. [He gestures to record player expansively, flopping back on the ground to continue his work. He's still sorting through his: there are a fair number of the Beatles and Queen in there, thanks to Lily, but some wizarding bands too.]
wolfymcwolf: (but the rest of my pack)

[personal profile] wolfymcwolf 2017-08-02 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
[As things have gotten worse for half-bloods and muggleborns, Remus has started listening more and more to muggle music. Reclaiming the "half", in his own way. He's got plenty to be ashamed of, but never that.] How's Bowie sound to you?

[David Bowie will be playing through that record player momentarily, no matter what Sirius says.]
lechiennoir: (t: almost serious (siriusly))

[personal profile] lechiennoir 2017-08-02 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
Excellent. [Bowie is great. Yet another of Sirius' favorites! He can't quite measure up to the Coolness of David Bowie, but he tries.]

What else did you bring?
wolfymcwolf: (try to be brave)

[personal profile] wolfymcwolf 2017-08-03 06:00 am (UTC)(link)
[You may as well try to measure up to God, Sirius. It's a foolish endeavor, doomed to fail.]

You'll have to wait and see. [He flops down on their couch, grinning playfully at Sirius.]
lechiennoir: (t: i have thoughts)

[personal profile] lechiennoir 2017-08-03 06:58 am (UTC)(link)
[So it is, but he can damn well try.]

I guess. [He's going to hop up and sprawl down next to Remus, mostly-fake pouting.] Secretive, Moony, what are you hiding?
wolfymcwolf: (yes i know i'm a wolf)

[personal profile] wolfymcwolf 2017-08-03 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[He chuckles at the exaggerated pout.] I'm not hiding anything, you know what records I own.
lechiennoir: (t: hey yes i like this plan)

[personal profile] lechiennoir 2017-08-04 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, but I doubt you brought all of them over. Shall we order in something? Might be easier.
wolfymcwolf: (checking out of this place)

[personal profile] wolfymcwolf 2017-08-05 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
Easier than navigating that trash heap you two call a kitchen? Certainly. [He rolls his eyes, but there's something fond about the annoyance.] If you want to, go ahead.

[If he can't pitch in to help pay, he's not going to dictate whether they do or what they get.]
lechiennoir: (t: LOOK A WEREWOLF)

[personal profile] lechiennoir 2017-08-06 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
Oi, it's not so bad. We've done the dishes. [Mostly.]

What're you in the mood for?
wolfymcwolf: (but not if you go with me)

[personal profile] wolfymcwolf 2017-08-07 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Have you? [Pardon him if he sounds like he doesn't believe you... because he doesn't.

He shrugs noncommittally, settling down further into their obscenely comfortable couch. It's more comfortable than his bed, though that's honestly not saying much.]
Whatever you want to get is fine.
lechiennoir: (t: almost serious (siriusly))

[personal profile] lechiennoir 2017-08-09 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Yes, his plan is working to get Moony to sleep on their couch for forever. ....Or maybe Padfoot just likes comfy couches, that might be it too.]

That's not helpful at all, Moonykins.
wolfymcwolf: (and i've been raised to kill)

[personal profile] wolfymcwolf 2017-08-10 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
[He's not going to live on their couch, he already has his own flat!!

He shrugs, nudging Sirius' knee with his own.]
I'm not terribly hungry, honestly, just get what you want.

[SO unhelpful]
