Lucius Malfoy in the Mall With a Nanotech Beetle
OR: I Have Been Reading Way Too Much Harry Potter.
So, last night I dreamed that I had a dinner date with Lucius Malfoy and Voldemort.
Also, I was giving Draco Malfoy driving lessons (for the record, though I could manage an automatic in an emergency, I am NOT liscenced to drive). Unfortunately, he couldn't keep the gas and break straight, and we managed to crash into a mall entrance. Which then exploded into nanotech beetles - imagine a cross between the man-eating scarabs in The Mummy and the Replicators from SG-1, and that's pretty much what you get.
Then Lucius was there (I assume he Apparated), and very displeased - I was supposed to be getting ready for the Big Dinner, what was I doing bringing his son to this Muggle institution? And why did the Muggles have magic beetles?
I spent some time in the dream trying to explain nanotech to Malfoy Sr., and ended up going with 'kind of like really really really tiny clockwork,' as I levitated one and telekinetically disassembled it - the rest were kind of frozen in place by some effect - and didn't even go into the electron bond disruption that was necessary.
Then we were at a hairdresser, getting my hair done for the Big Dinner, only I ended up teleporting the hairdresser to the Mt. Everest base camp because he wasn't doing what I wanted.
...IDEK man. IDEK.
