Blinking in confusion the young woman glances around the room she's suddenly found herself in, "What in Hades...?" Absently she clutches the staff in her hands closer, almost like a security blanket, eyeing the others in the room warily. She's dressed simply in a short leather skirt and matching halter top with practical leather boots. A plain pouch is slung over her shoulder and across her chest, odd counterpoint to the strange metal ring hooked at her other hip and the sai handles peeking from the tops of her boots. She looks vaguely startled to be addressed then immediately relaxes into a friendly smile as she answers.


1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?

"Cheese? Oh I dunno, some of the cheese from Athens was pretty good, can't remember the name of it though. Probably from goats or something. Why is it my favorite? Umm... I guess 'cause it reminds me of home."

2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?

She blinks, green eyes reflecting mild confusion, "Who? Are these people warlords?"

3. What time is it where you are?

"Well... it was just a couple hours past midday where I... was..." She glances around again, studying the room with interest.

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.

She suddenly looks sad before the smile is back again, though a bit strained this time, "Well, I'm not sure who either of those people are but I can safely guess I'm neither one of them. Though, it's been my experience that when one has returned from the dead you generally aren't too into sexual harrassment... more like sleeping a lot... or trying to keep yourself from ending up dead again, kinda depends. But I suppose if you were to want to sexually harrass someone and I was theoretically this newly alive person that wants to harrass someone, I guess a member of this Order or whatever, then a good way to go about it would be to take that person to an Amazon party." Her eyes twinkle mischievously.

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.


"A bar? Oh... well I dunno, I don't think I'd do very well at bartending. But I guess if I had to name one I could go with The Potadeian... but no one would be able to pronounce it."

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.

"Who -are- these people? Well anyway, wouldn't it depend on who this Harry likes more? After all, shouldn't love count for something?" She smiles wistfully. "Though, if you really want a story about it with mythological creatures I could probably come up with one. I heard something about this big sea creature in the Britannia once... don't think it's real though, after all, it'd be bigger than a hydra and that's kinda silly."

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.

"Paperwork? Oh... you mean like scrolls and such? That's a really good question, I've always wondered the same thing myself. It's amazing how many scrolls a tribe of Amazons can generate of all people. Though we've generally found that the occasional bonfire of excess scrolls works well. Either that or we just stuff them all into a hut in the back of the village and pretend they don't exist." Gabrielle pauses then mutters to herself, "Which reminds me... I need to have someone clean out that hut..."

D. Hufflepuff – Prove you are not useless.

She grins, eyes dancing with mischief, "Not useless? What would you like me to do?" She twirls her staff expertly around her body for a brief moment, "I have many skills."

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.

"A bribe?" Gabrielle frowns slightly, "I don't much hold with bribery as a rule. Though... I suppose it depends on the circumstances. But... I guess I could offer my bardic skills, I was trained at the Academy for a while. Or um... I could teach self defense or something? I don't really know what would be useful in a bribe in this place."

"Is that it?" She smiles again and shrugs, "Ok, um... if you have anymore questions just ask."

That'll explain it then. We meet the unexpected almost every day here too - in this case, you. You've got the idea of what this place is, right? Does the idea of learning magic appeal to you at all?

It can be fascinating, yeah. Some parts of it seems like you gotta stop thinking about them and just do them though, y'know? Do you have magic or something like it where you're from?

Yeah, a lot of those concepts are still around now. There are Indian tribes where I grew up that still have shamans, though they certainly wouldn't share any magic they might or might not know with an outsider like me. I spent a long time trapped in a place between dimensions before I came here. There's a lady named Emily who used to live in the Land of the Dead, though it probably looked different to her than it would to someone from your world. She's started a Dead Girls Glub for those of us who've been there and back again.

Doing and not thinking... my friend Cooper tried to tell me about this detecting technique he used when he was investigating my murder. It involved throwing rocks at bottles in response to hearing the name of one of the suspects. However close his instinctive aim put the rock to the bottle was supposed to have told him something. ::giggles:: I'm afraid I didn't really understand it at all. But Coop got the job done in the end, I gotta give him that.

Well, it's kind of like a support group, although there are snacks involved. There's some things you just can't talk about except with people who've been through it, you know? - Yeah, I'm guessing you know. I haven't brought it up yet 'cause the club's just started, but for me it's turning out to be nightmares that are my ongoing issue from having died. If Emily and Anya don't make it in to meet you themselves, let me know and I'll tell them you should get an invitation to the next meeting, see what you think.

People with great instincts seem to end up in the hero jobs a lot, don't they? I wonder why that is. I went with my instincts when I was alive, but they were mostly bad ones. Turned out I should've been listening to my heart all that time instead. The upside of being stuck in that limbo all that time was I had time to think on all the stuff that went wrong - to grow up, really. Now I'm trying to do things the right way, or at least a better way.

Vote: Gryffindor

::nods:: I think Gryffindor for you. Not sure why.
