hh_mirrorPercy Weasley, Harry Potter Series
1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
I quite like Havarti. It's versatile and tasty, and not ridiculously expensive. Wonderful with a bit of fresh fruit and nice crusty bread.
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?
Execution? That's... not very common, really, and I don't think they fall under the jurisdiction of the Ministry. There'd be an awful lot of forms to fill out.
3. What time is it where you are?
It's 5:32 now, but I'm sure it'll be later by the time I've finished.
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.
You do know that I'm very closely related to quite a few of them, yes? And even without taking that into account, they're a collection of near-suicidal glory hounds. I don't find that very attractive.
Kingsley Shacklebolt is quite fit, though, isn't he?
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.
I suppose the only thing I'd be calling at all in such a circumstance is a quick lumos. Then I'd be able to read the labels on the bottles, at least.
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, honestly! What kind of sensationalist nonsense is this?Even Potter isn't mad enough to marry either of them.
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.
Oh, Merlin, not paperwork again! Well, clearly you're just important enough to have a lot of things requiring your attention, but not quite important enough to have an assistant to delegate the minor tasks to. Or, you are the assistant being given the minor tasks (and most likely rather a few not-so-minor ones, if my experience is anything to go by). Either way, a methodical approach is key. Focus on each item in front of you, not the entire pile. It's less daunting that way.
D. Hufflepuff – Prove you are not useless.
Well, judging by your Ravenclaw query, organizational skills are in short supply around here. Since that's a strength of mine, I'd say I could make myself rather useful.
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.
Bribery is rather an unusual requirement, isn't it? I mean, there are all sorts of regulations forbidding that sort of thing. But it does seem like my skills are needed here, if only to keep the lot of you from smothering beneath a paperwork avalanche. And I'm willing to help tutor anyone who's having difficulty with his or her studies.

So, anyway, we get to vote on what House we think you should be in now. Do you want to be back in Gryffindor? Charlie got sorted there, but Ron and I are in Slytherin now.

Date: 2006-08-09 02:07 am (UTC)Well, you see, the Sorting Hat isn't at all like it used to be. It's developed a rather strange sense of humor. And when I returned to school, it was even stranger. There was actually something very wrong with it. I happened to let it know I knew something was up, and it got mad at me and put me in Slytherin. I know, I know, I should have kept my mouth shut, but it's the Sorting Hat, so it would have known what I was thinking, anyway, and I couldn't help thinking something was wrong with it when something actually was wrong with it. And when Ron got here he found out that I was in Slytherin and Hermione'd been sorted in to Ravenclaw and Harry was in Slytherin with me and most of his old Gryffindor mates weren't here anymore so he asked to be sorted into Slytherin. It's all very simple, really.
You don't want to be in Slytherin, do you? I think you should get to be in Gryffindor again. Or maybe Ravenclaw, if you'd like that better. Except they have a bar there now, and a sauna and a lab thingy.

Date: 2006-08-09 04:26 pm (UTC)I'm not sure I know what a sauna is.
Vote: Gryffindor
Date: 2006-08-09 04:46 pm (UTC)Oh, I just saw my first sauna when I visited Lily Potter the other day. It's a very interesting Muggle contraption. I think Dad would love to take one apart, except it's very big. There were at least three men in there when I saw it. And don't tell mum and dad, but they get in there mostly naked! I think it's where they go after they've been at the bar for a while.
You're not going to say where you want to be sorted, are you? Fine, then. Unless you tell me otherwise, I'm voting Gryffindor for you, because the more Weasleys still in there, the better. And no matter whether you're still speaking to mum and dad, you are still a Weasley.
