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!
Fuck off, they're not fucking weak. You're deluded.
[A pause, here. He's itching to say more, but he won't. Treading in waters like this has gotten him in serious trouble before, and he doesn't quite want to risk pissing off Remus or Lily.]
the smartest witch of my year and a prefect of my own house? I beg to differ. They'd do plenty if your lot wasn't a bunch of pricks with their heads up their arses.
Fuck off. All of us together did stuff at Hogwarts that you'd never dream of, and Remus contributed a LOT to it. Or you do just not fancy someone who knows perfectly well how to defend himself against all the shit you like pulling?

Oh, don't be obtuse. You know as well as I do that they couldn't do it themselves.
( In sane-people-world, that doesn't actually prove inferiority as much as it just speaks for the very, very rigged system they live in. )

Oh no, a prefect. Whatever shall we do? He'll have to take points from my house between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 9:00 p.m.

private to sirius
Re: private to sirius
....I also hate letting her have the last word, but you know that.
no subject
Between the two of you, I don't if anyone ever has the last word.
Just try to leave me and Lily out of it, yeah?
