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!

Peter Pettigrew
[Peter finds himself at his usual table with the number nine special sitting in front of him. The corned beef sandwich made his stomach growl pleasantly as he bit into it, stuffing as much as he could into his mouth. It was his treat to himself, one he indulged in with great pleasure. The seat across from him is empty, waiting to be filled by any of his mates. He assumes that one of them will be along shortly. In the meantime, he'll see to polishing off the pile of chips left on his plate.]
M.I.A.V.I
Username: PPettig
I know that it's hilarious, but seriously, the next person that pours my inkpot into the pockets of my jacket are going to be hexed. You have been warned.
m.i.a.v.i. un: sblack

...couldn't even write that with a straight face.
no subject
....Okay, barring the time you actually did do that. Which I hope was a mistake, unless you really do have a desire to see me stark naked.

I am in desperate need of a pint, anyway, so one round won't break the bank. Much. Meet you at the Leaky Cauldron in twenty?
no subject
Alright. I'll be at the usual booth.
no subject
He clocked out and heady to the Leaky Cauldron, carrying his now spoiled jacket over his shoulder. A good Scourgify would clear it up, but with Peter's luck he was more apt to put holes where the pockets had been. The last thing Peter wanted to do was to explain to his mother what happened to his jacket. The less said to her, the better.
Sirius was sitting in his usual spot, looking far cooler than Peter could ever have hoped to appear. He grinned, sliding into the booth across from Sirius.]
So, I suppose the first round is on me, yeah?

Someone's idea of a prank, I'm sure. They are just very terrible at it. Feels good to know that we are still the undisputed prank war champions. Don't worry about the jacket. I hate it, anyway. It's tight around the shoulders and yet the sleeves are too long. I didn't care enough to make it fit in the first place. I'm sort of glad it's been ruined. Gives me reason to find one that's better looking.
[White lies come easy to Peter. He's been telling them his entire life, even to his best mates. Some things are better left unsaid.]
Drinks on me. No one can say no to a free pint.
[He puts his hand up, signalling to the waitress. He orders two pints of the decent ale of the house before turning back to Sirius.]
So, how are things in the dog house? [He's joking. And probably failing at it. Peter's not known for his tact, after all.]
no subject
Alright, I'll get the next, then. [There's a quick grin. Careful, Pete, he likes being an unregistered animagus, and it may come in handy in future.] The doghouse is all right, I guess. James is pining, as he does. Dunno where he's gotten off to.
no subject
[He's tempted to roll his eyes. Honestly, he doesn't see what the big deal is about Prongs and Evans breaking up. It was bound to happen. School romances hardly ever went anywhere, and if they did they were massively dysfunctional. At least, that's what Peter had read off the cover of Witch World Weekly gossip magazine. He didn't have any real life experience to back it up, but it sounded about right.]
We should do something. You know, the four of us. We could all use a bit of cheering up.
no subject
[For his part, Sirius would love for them to get back together, but that's also because Lily's essentially been adopted as another family member by this point. Also, he likes seeing James happy.]
Yeah. Film night, maybe? We could all go into London.
diagon alley
[He slides into the chair across from him before he can even answer, nicking just one of his chips. At least he bothered to pretend to ask??] You on lunch?
no subject
Of course. Take a seat. Help yourself. I just ordered another basket of chips so feel free to dig in.
[Peter pushed the basket to the center of the table.]
I'm taking a long lunch today. The office will survive without me. I doubt many will miss me. How are you?
no subject
[That'll probably be his lunch, though he's not saying so.] I dunno, I've heard it's a right mess over there. You might be missed more than you think. [He shoots him a playful grin, shrugging.] I'm fine. Trying to find something new. [meaning, the old job is... not, anymore.]
no subject
There's nothing special that I can do that ten other wizards couldn't do better'n me. Still, it's something, I suppose.
[He frowned at Remus, not really following what he meant by 'try something new' until it finally clicked. The rules and the curfew...]
Hell, mate, I'm sorry. I didn't.... look, maybe I could put a word in for you at the office. They're always looking for warm bodies. It'd be enough until you found something better.
no subject
I've tried applying there before. [He seems to struggle internally with something for a moment, the way he always does before he has to ask for any sort of help.] But if you know anyone who's having-- any sort of problems with boggarts, or pixies, or anything of the like... if you could pass them my name... might as well use that N.E.W.T. for something, yeah? [Right, because you definitely need an O-level N.E.W.T. in Defense Against the Dark Arts for basic pest control...]
no subject
[Peter grins. He's trying to help, to offer a solution to Remus' problem. Peter can't understand why anyone woudn't want Moony around. He's far more talented at everything over Peter. Just because he's a werewolf shouldn't matter. It wasn't like Remus was dangerous.]
no subject
[He really does appreciate it. It's always good to know he still has people in his corner.] I've just been putting in everywhere that hasn't already turned me down, at this point.
no subject
You know what we should do? We should go on an adventure, you know, like old times. Messers Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs back at it again. No talk of jobs, or families, or broken hearts - just us mates. I think it's what we all need.
