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!

The goblins at Gringotts don't care about blood status, so long as you meet their other requirements. I've heard they've hired others from the future too, so it is possible.

Professor Lupin! You're here too?

[ So strange, someone else who's supposed to be dead, or is in his time, anyway. ]
wolfymcwolf: (but the thought of fresh meat)

[wh

have they mistaken him for his father? that would be l.lupin, though. Or, possibly, since they're from the future, he's become a professor by their time?]


I don't have that title, I'm afraid.

[ Oh. ]

Sorry. I thought you must be displaced as well, but I guess you're just... here.

Thanks for the advice on Gringotts. I'll try there.
wolfymcwolf: (they're gonna keep us alive someday)

It's alright, I can understand the confusion with only a name to work off of.

[Now he's turning the idea over in his head, though. It's something he's thought about before, but-- huh.]

Are you a student of mine, in the future?
westhamwizard: (005)

[personal profile] westhamwizard 2017-08-05 10:53 am (UTC)(link)
I was. You taught Defense Against the Dark Arts, our third year. 1993-1994.

Only for one year? That's a short tenure.

[That's right there's no jinx on the DADA position here]
westhamwizard: (13)

[personal profile] westhamwizard 2017-08-08 07:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, you know. People found things out about you, and the board made a decision. I argued for you, said you were the best DADA professor we'd ever had, but they wouldn't listen.
wolfymcwolf: (will soon be done)

[personal profile] wolfymcwolf 2017-08-09 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure I appreciated that.

[casually switches to private]

What do you mean by, people found things out? There's only one "thing" I can think of, and it's been registered publicly since I graduated. My condition is no secret.
westhamwizard: (006)

>>private

It was, in my timeline. No one knew when you were hired, except I imagine Dumbledore.. It stayed a secret until near the end of the year, when there was some mess involving an escaped prisoner from Azkaban. I don't know the details.

I'm glad learning of that didn't tarnish your opinion on my apparent teaching abilities, then.

Good luck with your job hunt. I saw Lily Evans contacted you, I cannot recommend her enough. If you do end up working in her shop, we may run into each other very soon.
