catremistrae.livejournal.comHello. I should have said something earlier, but I've been having a lot of headaches with school (literally and figuratively), so any comments made to myself or perfect_company (Inara Serra) will be responded to as soon as possible, but expect about a day's delay. I hope to be back in full force soon, but for now I'm going to be a bit slow getting back to people.

History of Magic class.
Feb. 6th, 2006 02:42 pmgrouchyoldsnake.livejournal.comOutside of the door, there is a chart pinned up that dictates where every student should sit. Inside, the desks are already arranged with a scroll on each table, a quill enchanted against cheating, and a sheet of parchment, turned blank-side up, that has the questions for the entrance exam.
( Seating Chart. )
The questions on the exam are as follows:
1) Pick a major event during the last 3,000 years of wizarding history. Give a brief overview, explain its impact, and conclude by stating the effect, if any, on wizard-Muggle interaction.
2) Choose three famous wizarding figures. State what made them notorious, and the reasons behind their actions.
3) What, in your opinion, was the most important creation/spell created over the last century? Explain its uses, give an outline of how it was discovered/made, and a brief biography of the person/people involved with its introduction to the wizarding world.
4) You are allowed to change one event, and one event only, that occured over the past millenia. Which one, and why? Predict what the world would be like today had that change happened.
((OOC: Feel free to have your characters answer the questions in comments. There's very little actual history of the world given, so you can make it up, or take characters mentioned in HP canon and mess around with them. Check HP Lexicon Timeline for accuracy, if you want your character to do well.))

Howdy.
Look, I'm going to have to leave this community. I just don't have the time or interest for a real rp, which wasn't what I expected when I joined this community. I hope you don't mind.
I realize I could stay and lounge around in the background, but I don't think that's fair if another person shows up wanting to play River. She's a good character, and since you have so many other members of the Firefly crew here you deserve an active River. So, should a new River appear, they are free to use the squib image I made last night if they like. So yeah. If someone shows up applying as River, could you direct them to this post?
( keep it safe )
Good luck you guys! And have fun :)

Feb. 6th, 2006 06:24 pmabccity-angel.livejournal.com1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
*laughs* Ohh, how long has it been since I've had cheese now? I'm a vegan. None for me, thank you.
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?
God, neither. Murder's such an ugly thing, especially in the abundance we have it here.
3. What time is it where you are?
Hmm, not sure. There's not a clock in mine and Coll's loft... Should really think of getting on of those soon.
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.
Sexual harassment? *shudder* I already get more of that than someone should have to deal with; I'll pass on that one too.
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.
My own bar? Oh, that'd be beautiful. *taps chin* Probably Today 4 U, really. Hello; cliche.
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.
Oh, Harry, whoever the hell you think's better for you, go ahead, hun.
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.
Maybe in your sleep, you're waking up and putting the papers back on your desk without knowing it? Have you been feeling any deja vu lately?
D. Hufflepuff – Prove you are not useless.
Useless! Huh! I can shake this thang better than most y'all! *snap*
Kidding. I HAVE gotten pretty good at drumming, though. And any time you need advice or someone to vent to, I'm here for you.
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.
Despite what ... Mark ... seems to be telling people, I'm not offering to put off any more dogs any time soon, thanks. Otherwise, I suppose this goes with the 'useless' question...! Venting? Advice? Need a beat? I'm there.

Feb. 6th, 2006 06:40 pmoldoneofrlyeh.livejournal.comhttp://www.journalfen.net/community/fandom_wank/887921.html
Anyone remember our lovely lynch mob with Mmy yesterday and how it spread on over to Rent, Hekate, the Magikoopa, and the Clown? We'll, we've been fandom_wank'd. And they'll probably note this as well. Thought you all would love this. :) I guess the Super Bowl does that to people.
I would like to thank Ran/Chii's Player for directing me to it.

1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
Ramen. Wait, what was the question again? Favorite cheese? Any kind that reminds me of ramen, I suppose.
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?
Simple. I'd kill them both using the clones of my Kage Bunshin no Jutsu! It'd totally awesome and I'd win hands down, for sure, no question!
3. What time is it where you are?
Er... I don't really know. Kakashi-sensei is the one with the clock, which we usually use in timed training, so you should probably go ask him.
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.
Whichever person I not-so-secretly admired, no matter how that person felt about me. I'm sure, thanks to being returned from the dead, that my words of love and admiration would catch her eye this time around and she would fall head over heels in love with me! Then she would throw it in the face of my rival, proclaiming how it was I that she was fond of the entire time, no matter what facade she put on about loving him!
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.
Ichiraku Ramen! Oh... wait...
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.
Well, it's obvious that Harry has a crush on Fred, even though Fred doesn't acknowledge Harry's existence. Instead of pining away at Fred, Harry should give his attention to George, who has a not really secret crush on him. That way, Harry and George will realize that they were meant to be, and Fred will go off and brood somewhere.
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.
I know awesome Ninja moves, such as the Kage Bunshin, Sexy no Jutsu, Rasengan... and I can teach them to you! Just look at Konohamaru and see how I've crafted a seemingly useless boy into a prime Ninja!
All you have to do is buy me Ramen after the lessons.

Burning baby fish led me here . . .
Feb. 6th, 2006 08:56 pmdrusilla-misse.livejournal.com1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
My mummy used to like cheese . . . before Angel tore her throat out. Is there a cheese that has blood in it? I like the one with all the little blue lines in it, they look like veins.
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?
Would I turn purple if I drained a purple dinosaur? I drained a man with jaundice once, and I turned yellow. I matched Spike's hair. The stars told me they thought it was very funny.
3. What time is it where you are?
I don't like clocks. They use sparky blue electricity . . . it lies, and it took my poor Spike away from me.
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 rather like the one that turns into a wolf. Wolves are all fluffy and bitey and we could run around naked in the moonlight and make Spike terribly jealous.
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.
Spike and I ate a bartender once.
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.
He should play them against each other and make them fight. It's ever so amusing.
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.
Miss Edith says that the Queen of Hearts does it.
D. Hufflepuff – Prove you are not useless.
I killed a Slayer once. She was delicious.

5000yearold.livejournal.com1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
Any kind that goes well with beer. Why? Because it's beer and no food stuff is better than beer. Trust me. When you've been around as long as I have, you've tried all there is to try.
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?
Carrottop. Because of that inspid song of his, I want to take my time driving Barney slowly insane before granting him the death he'll be beginning for, thus Carrottop will be the beneficiary of a mercy killing.
3. What time is it where you are?
10:30 pm. Why everyone insists on me being able to tell the time I really don't know. It stopped being important to me before watches were invented.
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.
An interesting question. I'm not sure if he would still count by this point, but I'd sexually harass Severus Snape. He's got the wit, the snark, and a prominent nose not unlike my own.
5. If you are pushing to be in Slytherin - please state the clever, witty name of the bar in which you bartend, in the dark.
Joe's. Because everyone knows that the name of the bar isn't what's important--it's the quality of the beer, and the long-haired boy-scout minded Scots that are good for a lay if you get them hammered enough.
6. Offer a bribe to the members of this community so that they will not squib you.
I'm a decent hand with a sword, my diaries are undoubtedly filled with priceless information (or not) if one could be bothered to translate it, and I have a vast variety of discarded identies (complete with requisite paperwork) that I'm willing to share for dirt cheap.

waste-lock.livejournal.comFuck. Jimmy. He didn't want to think about it right now, didn't want that sort of crap in his mind. Flying would help. Flying would always help.
He thought briefly about owling Devi, or Adam, or Teatime, and asking them along, but figured if anyone was meant to show up they would.
Calmly, he kicked off, slowly spiralling up over the Quidditch pitch.
