Astral plane, activate! (HH anniversary plot, RP open to all)

[ugly-old-hat.livejournal.com]

The Sorting Hat had been dabbling in way too many fringe philosophies. (Neo-Rosicrucianism? Really, Sorting Hat?) It seemed that puppet!Ron Weasley's name for it, Sorting Hat the Wise, had gone to the Hat's lack-of-visible-head.

On the morning of Dec. 13 (or was it the 14th?) the Hat's esoteric interests affected the school for the second time.

The first instance had been more than a year past, when the Hat took a cue from Rev. Sun Myung Moon and united most of the Hogwarts students in mass marriages. That had been a lengthy and concerted effort by the Hat and its house-elf minions, opposed vigorously by the wicked (or noble??) Kojiro. Kojiro's kidnapping of the Hat's bride had been something of a turning point for the headstrong headgear.

This new instance ... even Kojiro might be powerless to counter. And the Hat's agency would be difficult, if not impossible, to discern.

In a mighty magical working, the Hat projected many of the students ... to the astral plane, in their astral forms.

Astral Hogwarts resembled the real material Hogwarts (well, the Sorting Hat's version of material Hogwarts) very closely indeed. There were some dissimilarities: did Hogwarts, on the material plane, really sparkle so much? Were there so many rainbows in the sky, without a hint of rain to prompt their presence? Were there really pastel-colored unicorns frolicking on the grounds? Unicorns with hair made of cotton candy?

Could the students fly without brooms in material Hogwarts?

Other than that, it would be instantly recognizable as Hogwarts. The astral students would find nothing jarringly unfamiliar, being astral themselves. No disorientation, as there had been with the mass weddings; only a pleasant surprise, if they did happen to remember the absence of pastel unicorns and self-propelled flight.

Finally the Hat would have achieved paradise! Too bad not all the students could be brought into this happy realm. The Hat hadn't quite figured out how to bring everyone en masse. But many of them could be.

Including Kojiro, perhaps ...

Application: Mrs. Snape (on the astral plane) - OC Squibbait

[mrs-astral-sev.livejournal.com]

((Yes, I did get Snape-mun's permission. I apologize to him in advance for what I am about to do.))

She had been on the computer, sitting in the Snape Fans chatroom, trying to explain about the last astral experience she'd had, when Master Sevvy had caned her until she'd screamed for release. The chat rooms were becoming difficult to moderate these days, and she suspected that most of those participating were trolls or mean girls who mocked the purity of her love for her astral husband.

Anyway, the kids would have to make their own dinner again tonight, because she could feel Master Sevvy calling to her. Her loins flooded with her desire, opening up like a flower after the rain, in anticipation of his harsh tenderness.

"Mom, we're gonna have to sell Sis's body for food," called Junior. "I hope that's OK."

She could hear Sis wailing in the background, clearly displeased by this notion.

"OK, but be nice to her," she called distractedly.

"Hey, I'm letting the bitch keep at least ten percent. That's better than she'd get with most pimps," Junior shouted back sullenly.

"Well, you kids have fun!" she called, and then got up and closed the bedroom door with a snap. Why her kids had to be so needy, she didn't understand.

Now then... She closed her eyes and tried to get into a meditative state.

As she journeyed onto the astral plane, she suddenly found herself not on her comfortable bed back home--the one she'd kicked her real physical husband out of months ago because unlike her sweet, darling Sevvykins, her real husband snored, farted and had bad breath. No, now she was lying on a bower of roses, breathing in the sweet perfume of their fragrance. The gentle sound of a Celtic harp played in the background, and if she sat up, she could stare out of the gazebo in which she found herself at a field full of row upon row of flowers. A unicorn gamboled nearby, and in the sky, the most perfect rainbow could be seen. A sonorous voice boomed out questions that she knew, instinctively, she must answer so that she could be with her darling, her best beloved, her Severus.

Matsuda-san,

Interesting, that you should become a student here on your birthday. I suppose I should wish you a happy birthday, and bid you welcome.

Application for Mai from "Mai-chan's Daily Life"

[notapotato.livejournal.com]

"K-kaede-san?" The young woman who'd just entered the room looked around in confusion. "Kaede-san, where am I?" This wasn't good. If Kaede found her missing... The woman shivered and straightened out her maid apron. She was pretty, with long brown hair tied up in a red bow. Her name was Mai, and she was lost.

"This isn't so bad. Just a room with a desk and paper, right?'' Mai thought out loud to herself. Cautiously, she stepped forward and looked down at the paper. "A-am I supposed to fill this out?"


( I'm confused... )
