Antubis had done what he had stayed in Kingdom Hospital for, finally. Mary was now safe and in a better place, and he had repayed all the favors he owed to the various people he had dealings with throughout the course of his time here. He stood up on his hind legs and stretched, growling as he did so. To anyone who didn't know him it would be a menacing growl. Those who knew him were aware he could be a lot more menacing than that.
He started lumbering down into the old kingdom, on his way to what Mary would call "the in between place." For now he had decided to keep the form Mary's mispronunciation of his true name gave him. He looked like a mix between a three toed sloth and an anteater, albiet much bigger. And neither of those creatures has incredibly sharp teeth like him.
As he carried on down the old kingdom hallway, he heard a song that had become very familiar to him begin to play. ((http://youtube.com/watch?v=swarVZkC9-E)) So far it had only seemed to play when something important was happening, which confused Antubis. He thought everything was done here. Soon, though, he saw an obviously disturbed and evil man in pajamas brandishing a toothbrush. Hearing the man repeating the phrase "Hows Annie?" over and over to himself, Antubis knew something had to be done. He followed the man's shrieking laughter through a set of doors.
As he passed through the doorway to find the man, the song grew louder, and he exited into... a great hall of some sort? He regarded the people milling around with casual concern, carrying his body in a way that told everyone he was not afraid or confused in the slightest. As he walked up to the quill that would undoubtedly write down his answers, the song continued to play from somewhere. When he spoke it faded away.
1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
When Antubis speaks, his voice is very slow and cool, almost soothing in a way. "Well, its not exactly cheese, but people say it kind of looks like cottage cheese. Its called escamoles. They eat it down in Mexico, usually on tacos. Basically its ant larvae, and it is ant-solutely delicious."
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?
"Well, that would really depend on what either of them have to offer me. Mary Jensen said it better than I could myself. I can cure, and I can kill. And I would do either to Barney or Carrottop if I thought it was in my best interests."
3. What time is it where you are?
"I am here, and I just got here, so I couldn't say. If you are referring to where I came from, its timeless in its own way. Days don't seem very long at all anyway when you've been around as long as I have."
4. If you were Albus Dumbledore returned from the dead, which member of the Order of the Phoenix would you sexually harass? How would you harass them? If you are Albus Dumbledore, please answer as if you were Sirius Black.
"If I was anyone returned from the dead, I'd probably focus on figuring out how to return to my eternal rest. And I'm going to go out a limb and guess that molesting someone probably wouldn't help me do so."
5. If you are pushing to be in:
A. Slytherin - please state the clever, witty name of the bar in which you bartend, in the dark.
Antubis sat on his haunches in thought for a moment, licking his mouth with a long, darting tongue. "I'd probably call it The Guardian of the Gate."
B. Gryffindor ā Debate whether Harry should ultimately end up married to Fred or George. Use examples from a variety of world mythologies to bolster your argument.
"Compare it to mythology, eh? I suppose I can do that. Fred and George are twins, right? Well I knew someone name Antaios a long time ago. Some people called him "The Twin Falcons." Harry's problem here is that Fred and George seem to be two halves of the same whole, much as my old friend Antaios. Eventually Antaios combined his two halves, and when he did so he also renamed himself Horus. Perhaps, similarly, Harry should consider an ongoing relationship with both Fred and George as they are almost one entity."
C. Ravenclaw ā You guys are supposed to be smart. Explain why my desk is inundated with paperwork at all times, even though Iām constantly disposing of it.
"Life is a vicious cycle, slick. That's just the way things are. Though it does sound like your desk is seriously racked up."
D. Hufflepuff ā Prove you are not useless.
"I've been alive for thousands of years, in countless different places. I'm sure that a place like that could find a use for what I've learned."
6. Offer a bribe to the members of this community so that they will not squib you. Items used in bribery do not necessarily have to belong to the person offering the bribe. Do not threaten us rather than offering a bribe. A threat indicates you either don't really want to be here, or don't have enough sense to answer the question properly. The hat will automatically squib you, regardless of other votes, if you do.
Antubis was suddenly bathed in light for a moment, and when the light cleared, there was a young man with long black hair standing in his place. "I can be seen as many different things to many different people, or not be seen at all." The boy faded completely from view, and after a moment the anteater form returned. "Surely this could be used in your interests somehow. The only other thing I'll add is this: This is how it works, I do you a solid, you do me a solid."
"I have read the hogwarts_hocus faq, and understand it is a crazy, cracktastic sorting community and RPG. Antubis
I have read the hogwarts_hocus rules and agree to abide by each and every one of them. Antubis
I agree to be a good sport and not get my knickers in a bunch. Antubis
One day, marmalade will rule the world. Antubis

OK, maybe there were hospitals in different parts of the world that had identical names. St. Joseph's and St. Jude's, various names with religious significance for hospitals that had some church affiliation. Kingdom Hospital, though, that really surprised Hook. The name of Rigshospitalet came directly from its country's history. It had been founded in the 18th century, when it went under the name of Kongelig Frederiks Hospital, King Frederik's Hospital (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigshospitalet). As far as Hook knew, Lewiston, Maine, didn't have a king.
What really got to him, though, was --
"Mary Jensen?" What the ...?
That was the name of the ghost Hook had helped Mrs. Drusse to exorcise.
"She's been laid to rest. Mrs. Drusse saw to that (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHT6Cm-IY5I)," he informed the talking anteater. "At least we hope so."
Mrs. Drusse had later expressed fear that the hole in the wall might have been left open too long.

Date: 2008-04-12 10:28 pm (UTC)"There wasn't any Sally there that I remember. Just me, Mrs. Drusse, and her son Bulder. He's an orderly. Glad to hear the job got done one way or another, anyhow." By hook or by crook, the old saying went. "While I don't particularly care if you call me Ringo, you'd be the only one. Most people call me Hook. Dr. Jørgen Krogshøj." Shortened to Krog, which meant Hook. "I'm a neurosurgeon at Kingdom Hospital in Copenhagen. Denmark. Not Lewiston in Maine."

Date: 2008-04-15 09:29 am (UTC)Antubis could smell when someone was one of those rare souls that fought to keep the balance of the universe they lived in, and could usually single out which word was used in their universe to signify this as well.
"How about you? I can't say I've ever seen someone with what I can only describe as head tentacles."
no subject
Date: 2008-04-17 01:36 am (UTC)She smiled, twitching one of the aforementioned head tentacles. "The technical term is 'lek' or 'lekku,' depending if you're speaking in singular or plural, but 'head tentacles' isn't an unheard-of name. I'm a Twi'lek. Why do you chose that form?" She figured that if he could turn into a human (or humanoid) as he had during his answer to the Hufflepuff question, the form he took might well be a matter of choice.
