(Some circumstances have arisen which make it impossible for me to play here now. Though I'd like to have continued and eventually become more active, I feel that it's sadly in everyone's best interests for me to withdraw while I'm ahead.
I feel particularly sad as I just had
sergievska sorted and wanted to do some things with her. However, this I feel is for the best. Both
captaindenethor and
sergievska will unjoin and defriend the communities and maybe you'll get other ones to sort someday.
Thanks guys, it's been fun reading and watching and sorting. Keepsquibbing sorting.

1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite? Hi, I'm Clippit, the Microsoft Office Assistant! It looks like you're attempting to ask inane questions about cheese. Would you like to use the Cheese Wizard?
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop? It looks like you're trying to kill Barney or Carrottop. What would you like to do?
_Get help.
_Use the Kill Barney Wizard.
_Use the Kill Carrottop Wizard.
_Go away, annoying paperclip being.
3. What time is it where you are? 11:27 AM.
4. If you were Albus *pops up in the middle of the question to inform you that "Albus" is not in your computer's dictionary* Dumbledore *suggsts replacing "Dumbledore" with "Bumblebee"* returned from the dead, which member of the Order of the Phoenix would you sexually harass? How would you harass them? I would use the Sexual Harrassment Wizard to print out a template that would help me sexually harrass Arthur Weasley.
5. If you are pushing to be in:
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. It looks like your desk is inundated with paperwork at all times, despite you constantly trying to dispose of it! I'm going to make your life even more difficult by constantly popping up to "help" and distract you when you're trying to work.
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'll let you use the Bribery Wizard!
((*hangs head in shame* This is, more or less, just an app for everyone to Squib, if they want to. I just couldn't resist the idea of filling out the application as the ever-aggravating paperclip.))

1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
I like a nice hard cheese, it goes well with red wine.
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?
Carrottop. Rudeness is intolerable to me.
3. What time is it where you are?
What time is it there? Quid pro quo.
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?
That Weasley girl is growing up nicely. Quite pretty. I'd like to sit and have a nice talk with her. Find out a bit more about her.
5. If you are pushing to be in:
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.
Why not both? In ancient Rome homosexual marriages were considered commonplace, as was polygamy.
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.
You need to get an underling to help you with that. Convince them it would be in their best interest.
D. Hufflepuff – Prove you are not useless.
I can talk someone into swallowing their tongue in a variety of languages. Also I am an accomplished chef.
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.
Has anyone been rude to you lately? Perhaps we could have them for dinner and talk things through.

Ryuuji tries to talk Mokuba into moving in with him and Seto, so Mokie can be with his family. Mokie's having none of it, and Ryuuji sucks at being firm with children.

((omg look it's me! alert the media, quick!))
Aziraphale hurries down the corridor, well aware of his lateness. Slowing to a halt before the appropriate door, he fiddles nervously with his reading glasses and shuffles from foot to foot. With a vague flick of his fingers, a bottle of wine appears in his hands that wasn't there a moment ago. Then, taking a deep breath, he knocks smartly on the door.
