Harry Potter Role Play
We wanted to...
We wanted to do one from the beginning of Hogwarts and we never actually started it so is anyone interested in a RP from the early Hogwarts days? Or would you like to do something else?

Founders, you mean? I think I remember that... I'm game, though I probably wouldn't be able to post very much and the characterization I've playing around with in regards to Salazar in the TMR fic would probably clash rather dramatically with everyone else's.

I remember that! Finally I (sort of) have enough time to do one of these!
What time period of Hogwarts?
(October 1, 2011 - 3:17 pm)
I'm gonna start this :)
//Alexandria//
"Oh, and sweetie, make sure to write once a month, Soot knows where our new house is, doesn't he?"
"Yes, mum."
"Oh, and we'll send you anything that you forgot at home, alrighty?"
"Yes, mum."
"And look after Dustin, alright? He's only 11, he's still a little boy. Make sure he does his homework and brushes his teeth and doesn't play with gir-"
"Mum! I'm coming here to learn, not to babysit. Honestly, if you wanted that you would've kept him home with you."
She finally gave my trunks and Soot's cage, getting teary eyed for the fifth year in a row. "Mum, honestly! Where's Dustin, the wall's about to close." I grabbed Dustin's hand and the other held my trunk. "You ready?" I whispered to him. He subtly nodded, so I dragged him towards the wall. I leaned against it, talking to him, until I saw that the coast was clear and we fell through the wall.
We were immediatly immersed in smoke, and Dustin groped for my hand the minute we went through. I held on tight, not wanting to lose another one of my brothers. I led him towards the luggage cart, and we swung our bags over the top and they landed with a thump. Judging by the noise, we were one of the first here. Making sure that he had his robes with him, and a jacket, we walked back towards the entrance to say 'bye to Mum and Da.
Da was talking with Dustin, probably last minute advice about Hogwarts. "Deary, you're in the fifth year already. Only two more of these and we'll see you at graduation! Do your best in Quidditch, I'm sure you'll get in!"
I rolled my eyes and blushed, thankful that there was so much steam and no one could see my cheeks turn a bright red. "Mum, honestly!"
"Alright, alright. Remember to write! Your Da and I love you very much!"
I smiled, then grasped Dustin's hand again. "Come on, little dude. Let's go!"

Wow, I feel so lonely, being the only Slytherin. ;)
(October 2, 2011 - 2:50 pm)
Wait, wait, wait!! We don't even know which time period yet. We can't start, so put your characters on hold. I was talking about the Founders RP that was never started... What do you guys think? The first year Hogwarts was ever opened.
That means (based on the other RP): Hogwarts might offer a reading and writing program because MOST children couldn't read, do math et cetera. Even if you are NOT eleven, you would be in first year (unless you're special and your parents taught you some cool stuff at home.) There would be no train (were we thinking, a carriage pulled by thestrals?) Anyone interested? I would take my other character... I never got to use her. :)
Another thing, students would probably come from all over Europe. (My character was from Spain.)

Oooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh!!!
So here's a link to the old thread: http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/blababoutbooks/node/86590?page=3
Okay, so they don't have a train because trains are Muggle and it's 995 AD and that would be weird. Also, parents wouldn't really want their children to be witches and wizards, oui? Because witchcraft was bad then. And our plot would be the VERY FIRST YEAR of Hogwarts? *eats apple pie* Yum...
Olive, are you really eating apple pie? Yum! May I have a piece, please?

@Admin: Hehe. Yup! Well, I was. Not now though. But I saved you a slice! *gives slice of virtual apple pie* It was made a few days ago when my little bro brought it home from some farm he went to for his Saturday program.
Thanks, Olive! And thanks to your little bro'. It's delicious!

Oh. I don't want to do it that way then, sorry.
(October 3, 2011 - 7:52 pm)
What about the opening of the Chamber of Secrets?
(October 4, 2011 - 10:00 am)
That sounds awesome!!!!! I'll post my bio later.
Do any Admins know what happened to my Lord of the Rings thread?
I do not know. The threads move all over beyond our control. Sorry.
