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!

fishpetals: (listen close enough)

[personal profile] fishpetals 2017-08-04 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Good. Come here. [ as soon as he's close enough lily is going to grip him by the chin and inspect his face, turning it this way and that, then tug him down close enough to kiss his cheek before letting him go. ] You look fine to me.

[ going back to what she's doing, she nods although she looks over at dean with a lofted eyebrow. ] You know of him in the future? [ uhhhh. ]
westhamwizard: (06)

[personal profile] westhamwizard 2017-08-04 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Dean's just shell shocked to watch Lily Evans, probably soon to be Lily Potter, kiss the man who'll rat her out to the Death Eaters on the cheek. He's forgotten all about the labeling he was in the middle of. ]

I reckon everybody does.

[ Should he say something?? How much is knowledge of the future going to change things? He didn't know they were friends! ]
lechiennoir: (t: LOOK A WEREWOLF)

[personal profile] lechiennoir 2017-08-04 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't I always, Lils? [Smirking, with a cheeky wink at Lily, before its back to Dean.]

What, why, do I suddenly play for Puddlemere United and win the world cup or something? [There's that bark of a laugh. He hasnt't played quidditch seriously since Hogwarts.]
fishpetals: (everything is happening)

[personal profile] fishpetals 2017-08-04 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
[ LILY ROLLS HER EYES DRAMATICALLY. ] Don't let James hear you, he'll be utterly betrayed by your flirtatious nature.

[ then it's back to dean as well, though her look is more grave because she knows about the war. in fact, she mouths no war to him while sirius isn't looking.

... so she knows about the war definitely for sure. ]
westhamwizard: (04)

[personal profile] westhamwizard 2017-08-04 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Dean looks at Lily as she mouths no war and his mind races. Does Voldemort killing Harry's parents count as part of the war? Can he even mention Harry at all? How does he back out of this now? Lily obviously knows something, but she can't know everything with how friendly she's still being to Sirius. ]

Oh, you know. You're just... causing trouble. In the future. I probably shouldn't talk about it.
lechiennoir: (t: lookin smug as fuck)

[personal profile] lechiennoir 2017-08-05 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, well; he should be used to it by now. [And back to Dean again, all interest:] Of course I am, it's what I do best. But it's rarely trouble enough to be known by someone I've never met before. Unless it was at Hogwarts.
fishpetals: (you might find)

[personal profile] fishpetals 2017-08-05 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
That doesn't make him any less dramatic about it. [ lily relaxes imperceptibly then before ruffling sirius' hair and settling, going back to carefully chopping some aconite. ] Who knows what everyone's got up to so far ahead? We really shouldn't ask. Knowing the future isn't good.

[ a vaguely nervous flick of her eyes toward dean. there's no sign she's worried about sirius, though. ]
westhamwizard: (010)

[personal profile] westhamwizard 2017-08-05 10:51 am (UTC)(link)
[ Dean returns Lily's look and takes up the quill again, trying for nonchalance as he goes back to labeling, though his eyes keep darting towards Sirius as though waiting for him to make a move. ]

Yeah, that was it. You're a legend at Hogwarts. That's all.
lechiennoir: (t: guys pls)

[personal profile] lechiennoir 2017-08-05 04:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[He leans into that ruffling a little, settling in to lean on the counter next to Lily as she chops. He doesn't know this guy, maybe he's just naturally jumpy.]

Hmm. Alright, then. [He sounds satisfied enough, but he totally doesn't believe that, Dean. Sorry buddy.]
fishpetals: (the elderly lose their teeth)

[personal profile] fishpetals 2017-08-05 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[ aconite done, lily moves on to crushing some dried doxy eggs with the side of another knife, then grinding them down with a mortar and pestle. she clicks her tongue. ] A legend for being insufferable and breaking the rules constantly. Let me tell you Dean, the entire group gave me trouble from day one.

[ with a little wave of the pestle toward sirius. ] But more importantly, tell me about yourself. What's your house? Did you play Quidditch? I don't need time-breaking details, just the little interesting things.

[ aka: time for a subject change. ]
westhamwizard: (006)

[personal profile] westhamwizard 2017-08-07 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
[ Relieved for the offer of a subject change, Dean leaps on the opportunity, smiling a little more genuinely while still trying to keep an eye on Sirius. ]

I was in Gryffindor. I played chaser, but not on the starting line. I filled in when one of the others couldn't play.
lechiennoir: (t: almost serious (siriusly))

[personal profile] lechiennoir 2017-08-07 05:13 am (UTC)(link)
Brilliant, I played chaser myself. [Please, Dean, he's not about to up and murder anyone. Except maybe some sentient mold.] Haven't done much since Hogwarts, though, but it's always nice to look at brooms.
