Acorna isn't sure what to make of this. She looks around the sorting room - strange and austere, but even without the purifying effect of her horn, the air is clean and safe if a little musty, and she doesn't see any immediate danger - and turns back to the door she came in through, which looks nothing like any hatch ever installed on the Condor. Still, she looks out through it. "Captain Jonas? Aari? Maak? This isn't funny, you three."
No answer comes, of course, so she turns her attention to the paper and quill. "Application for what?" she mutters to herself, picking up the quill in one slightly clumsy, two-fingered hand.

1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
I can't digest animal products, so I've never eaten any kind of cheese.
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?
Well, I am fond of grazing on carrot tops... but the way the question is posed makes it sound like you're talking about a couple of people, neither of whom I am familiar with. Anyway, killing them would definitely be ka-linyarii. I know the other Linyaari think I can be rather savage and uncouth, but that's pushing it a bit far.
3. What time is it where you are?
I have enough trouble keeping track of that without apparently being teleported off my friends' ship.
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.
I'm really very happy with my own lifemate, and I don't think I'm familiar with any of those people. I'm sorry, I don't really have an answer to your question.
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.
The Unicorn is really the only thing I can come up with off the top of my head.
B. Gryffindor – Debate whether Harry should ultimately end up married to Fred or George. Use examples from a variety of world mythologies to bolster your argument.
That's really not something I can decide, especially without ever having met any of them. He should marry which ever one he's in love with - and if he doesn't feel that way about either of them, then he shouldn't feel like those are his only options. Some of the best relationships I've seen happened because the people involved were willing to look a little outside what was expected of them, including my own.
C. Ravenclaw – You guys are supposed to be smart. Explain why my desk is inundated with paperwork at all times, even though I’m constantly disposing of it.
Are you doing the paperwork, or just disposing of it? If you're just throwing it away, you're only making more work for both yourself and whoever wants you to do it, because then they have to keep sending you new copies, don't they? It really would help if you just knuckled down and did the work - and less wasteful, too, if you're really doing all your paperwork in hardcopy.
D. Hufflepuff – Prove you are not useless.
As a Linyaari, I have the ability to purify air, food, and water, and to heal most injuries and illnesses. I also have the ability, unique as far as anyone can tell, to intuit the physical makeup of solid objects by looking at them.
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.
I don't actually seem to have much with me... but if you're injured or ill, I'd be glad to help. And I think I've cleaned up the air a little since I got here, but honestly, it wasn't bad in the first place.
I have read the [info]hogwarts_hocus faq, and understand it is a crazy, cracktastic sorting community and RPG. AH-L
I have read the [info]hogwarts_hocus rules and agree to abide by each and every one of them. AH-L.
I agree to be a good sport and not get my knickers in a bunch. AH-L.
