The Hello Thread

[josephinestone.livejournal.com]

Hey, Welcome.

Don't be shy to speak up, and I thought I start a thread in case anyone just wanted to say hello.

So hello!

Magic

[josephinestone.livejournal.com]

I love how it says Magic right next to Dumbledore when he appears out of nowhere—does Harry ever wonder how Dumbledore finds him?

tracking charm? (are there even tracking charms on the books? lol)

Re: Magic

[who_la_hoop]

Tracking charms must be relatively straightforward, given that schoolchildren can create something like the Marauder's Map...

Re: Magic

[capitu]

Yeah, that's right.

But then, those were the Marauders. Those guys were a whole different matter all together! :D

Re: Magic

[who_la_hoop]

lol! Yes, they created it via the power of awesome. I forgot. Sirius and James probably just smouldered sex appeal at it, and it came into being just like that :D

Re: Magic

[capitu]

lmao.

Now we're talking.

No, I agree, sex appeal and all, tracking charms must be real. We have gps and chips, yeah? I mean, the Muggles do. :P

Re: Magic

[who_la_hoop]

Oh, I'd think so! If us Muggles can do it, then it must be child's play for wizards :D

[who_la_hoop]

*waves hello* I'm around, but I don't have a copy of the HBP film, lmao. Please don't take my fandom card away :D

[josephinestone.livejournal.com]

lol we will not take you fandom card away; have you read the first episode yet?/what did you think of it?

[who_la_hoop]

Good :D I don't really like the films all that much, tbh.

I have read the first ep! I didn't really know what to expect, but it was different to what I expected - a proper police procedural (well, auror procedural, I guess, heh) rather than a romance with crimes as a subplot. It feels genuinely something different for the H/D fandom. It's going to be fun to see where you go with this :)

[vaysh]

It is a real Auror show. A proper police procedural. I think can imagine what plotting this meant with ten people. ;)

[who_la_hoop]

It was amazingly straightforward and trouble-free, right? ;) I am boggling at the amount of work it must have been!

[vaysh]

... straightforward and trouble-free, Buahahahahahaha!!! *wipes away tears of laughter*

Right. Let's just say, it has been an experience. With dark and light, really. Definitely something new in fandom. :)

[vaysh]

I am here. :) *waves* Trying to dl the movie atm.

[josephinestone.livejournal.com]

I'm at the part where they are following Draco and see him in the shoppe :)

[vaysh]

I am just after the Potions class. I haven#t seen this movie in ages. I love it, actually.

Never noticed that Dumbledore was left-handed ...

Quibbler, Quibbler

[josephinestone.livejournal.com]

Oh, how I love Luna.

[capitu]

Hello!

So excited, but with a really glitchy connection. Still! Woohoo! :D

[the-undaunted.livejournal.com]

Oh good, I thought LJ is never going to get up again...

Hey everyone, cheers for the thread and have a good time watching the movie ;) I couldn't wait and have started a little bit earlier... /guilty

[josephinestone.livejournal.com]

Is the movie over for you or what part are you at?

[the-undaunted.livejournal.com]

Weasley is the king! ;) Just shortly after their Quidditch vicotry now.

So Perfect One Drop Would Kill Us All

[josephinestone.livejournal.com]

Why is it not surprising that the books are that wrong about what they are teaching? 13 not 18...then creep talking about relationships with Dumbledore.

Did you hear her?

[josephinestone.livejournal.com]

I never heard Ron say that before; how did I miss that?

"Did you hear her; what she said about me and her snogging?" Okay, I paraphrased but still.

[vaysh]

All I'm saying is: Slytherin Quidditch Team is way cool. *nods*

[capitu]

They are like the mean boys, aren't they? :D

[josephinestone.livejournal.com]

If I were Katie I would so think something was going on between Harry and Draco from that moment in the Great Hall.

[ashindk.livejournal.com]

Oh no! Apparently LJ decided that I didn't need to go to this party :-( but I'm watching the film.
*kicks LJ* (I hope this posts)

[josephinestone.livejournal.com]

It's been slow for me too; off and on.

[capitu]

Leaving the party early. :( I had a great time sharing the joy with you. Thank you so much for putting this together for us. You've outdone yourselves. Thank you! <3

[josephinestone.livejournal.com]

Not too early; Credits are rolling.

I need to get some sleep, so I'll be out as well.

[vaysh]

:( The scene with the illuminated wands ALWAYS makes me cry.
