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!

no, this is something different. ] Nonsense. Don't be sorry, just come sit with me. Have you eaten today?
[ he doesn't touch him. not yet. but he extends a hand, non-threatening and easy. ] I haven't. Let us eat lunch together and talk, if that is all right with you. I've been pulled from my home, I could use a friend in this place.

[This is a small lie: he has fifteen No-Maj cents, which is a lot of money (to him, anyway) he definitely didn't steal from his mother a penny at a time. It's not very useful when he's in London which apparently has completely different money.]

[ gellert's own lie is much larger but it slips over his tongue smoothly because he can read people and i'm independently wealthy wouldn't have the same pull as a young man living with a guardian - which, well, soon it won't be a lie. he'll go back with bathilda.
sometime. ] I have been looking for a good place to eat here, I'm unfamiliar.
no subject
I'm not much help on that front. [He remembers, vaguely, someone saying something about a . . . cauldron?] There's an inn, I think? It also serves food.
no subject
anyway. he beams, bright as the sun, and extends his hand again. take his hand? ] Have you seen it? If you would lead the way I would appreciate it.
[ he knows precisely where the leaky cauldron is. ]
no subject
[Realtalk: who let the wizards name their shopping center "diagonally."]
no subject
[ he'll force the contact, then. moving smoothly, gellert hooks their arms as though they're old friends, conspirators, close as anything. ] My name is Gellert, friend. What may I call you?
