timepiececlock: (spike sold the world)
A weird imagined conversation, between unnamed two Hogwarts students gossiping about the HP gang.

-

"That's Potter's girlfriend, Loony Lovegood."
"Cute face. Looks dumber than bricks."
"She's kinda spacey, but she's got a sodding scary memory and reflexes like a tiger when she wants to. I saw her curse Goyle once when he tried to steal her hat right off her head. Didn't even turn around, just waited for the hat to settle back in place and kept on walking along, humming like she was on a stroll in the park."
"I thought Harry was dating Hermione Granger?"
"No, I know what you're thinking of but you've got it mixed up. Hermione was dating Ron Weasely two weeks ago, but Ron accused her of cheating with Harry Potter so Hermione dumped him. You didn't hear about it because it was the last day of Yule break, but it was bad. Big, public fight. He had three different girls from Gryffindor come up and slap him in the face the next morning."
"No shit. Why?"
"Couldn't rightly say. But it was funny, in a sad way. Jus' walked up, smacked him, and walked off. No explanations."
"All the exciting stuff happens when I go home."
"They'll probably make up again soon, in some big, gushy and romantic display. Overly-emotional Gryffindors, you know. Live for dramatics and take everything to the extreme."
"But if she cheated with Harry, how are you so sure that they'll make up?"
"Nobody thinks she did, except Ron. Potter's been dating Luna since the beginning of the year, and barely a harsh word between them in that time. At least that's what Collin told me, and I admit I've never seen them fighting in the halls or anything."
"Maybe Harry got bored."
"It's possible, but I don't thinks so. I mean, maybe, but Hermione and Ron have been his mates since first year, and Potter's not bad guy."
"Seemed pretty snappish in Charms this morning, if you ask me."
"I suppose he does sulk a lot."
"Sulk? I mentioned something about the repairs going on at the Ministry and he damn near spelled my foot off. Aren't girlfriends meant to make you more balanced and in touch with your feelings?"
"Maybe she does, and this is the milder version. He didn't used to be this touchy; I had him for first year Divinations and he was quiet, but friendly. He's different this year, even worse than last. Life of stress, makes you weird."

Summer lightning!

Summer lightning!

Almost makes up for the mugginess that's keeping me awake.

Ok, who read the last chapter (29) of [livejournal.com profile] nautibitz's Crash & Burn?

Did any of you all notice the music link?

I was rereading it, and just noticed it now. Damn, it's sweet. Nauti, are you singing? Whoever it is, not bad. Not bad. I can imagine the musical accompaniment.

I think this fic should get some kind of award. I mean, composing your own music, and then actually singing it and posting it online for people to read with your story... that's serious devotion to story and fandom participation. Color me impressed.

It's raining now. This is unusual for us this time of year, though not unheard of by any means.


2:08 ...and now it stopped. Wow, they're really going for broke with all that, aren't they?


....


Thunder's back! yay!

Has anyone bought the Vendetta Red CD yet?

What's the British - English equivalent of the sentence-ending phrase "you know?"

For example, I would say:

"But most cheese is yellow, ya know?"

Would a Brit say "you know", or would they likely say something else?


P.S. don't tell me "savvy," you lying pirates.

Yo Ho, Yo Ho, A Pirate's Life for Me!
We pillage, plunder, we rifle and loot,
Drink up, me 'arties, yo ho!
We kidnap and ravage and don't give a hoot,
Drink up, me 'arties, yo ho!

We extort and pilfer, we filch and sack,
Drink up, me 'arties, yo ho!
Maraud and embezzle and even highjack,
Drink up, me 'arties, yo ho!

We kindle and char and enflame and ignite,
Drink up, me 'arties, yo ho!
We burn up the city, we're really a fright,
Drink up, me 'arties, yo ho!

We're rascals and scoundrels, we're villains and knaves,
Drink up, me 'arties, yo ho!
We're devils and black sheep, really bad eggs,
Drink up, me 'arties, yo ho!

We're beggars and blighters and ne'er do well cads,
Drink up, me 'arties, yo ho!
Aye, but we're loved by our mommies and dads,
Drink up, me 'arties, yo ho!

timepiececlock: (time of your life)
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things
