[ The screen is filled with the sight of two large gray eyes. Framed by some distinct spectacles peering back at everything in their sight with a steady, unblinking gaze.

Someone still hasn't figured out how their camera works.

Finally, though, the eyes speak. At least they sound friendly, if oddly calm considering the circumstances. ]

Oh! I remember

[origamiguardian]

Yes, it's the Porter Room.

((ooc: Maggie can has 4th Wall Luna?))

[i_seethestrals]

Oh, good. I was afraid I might be remembering something that didn't really happen after all, for a moment. That would terrible, don't you think? Although this would be quite... an elaborate imagining.

Video, btw;

[origamiguardian]

[quite serious] Yes, it's scary to question your own memories.

I'm Maggie. I just returned here myself.

video it is then!

[i_seethestrals]

[ As serious as she can get. ] Yes. It's a very unpleasant experience. Glad I've never had to go through it, until just now.

I'm Luna. Are you glad to be back? I think I am, though I am a little worried for everyone back home, as much as I've missed everyone here.

[origamiguardian]

[it really is...] ... that's so cool.

I mean--I glad to be back to see all my friends here. But I miss my sisters very much.

[i_seethestrals]

[ Blinks. ] What's so cool?

I miss my father. And my friends. It's all right, though, I'm sure they wouldn't want me to sit around feeling sorry for myself.

[origamiguardian]

Sorry. I've... sort of heard of you before. It's hard to explain, but it's an honor to meet you.

Same here. In fact, my little sister used to kick me if I felt sorry for myself.

[i_seethestrals]

It does sound odd, but it's certainly not impossible. [ She might be staring at you a bit more intently now, though, Maggie. Hope you don't mind. ] -- Oh! And very flattering. Even if I'm not sure why.

I hope you don't mean that literally. I don't think an actual would be very helpful.

[origamiguardian]

No, Anita literally kicks me sometimes. She kicks a lot of things.

... but she's not here anyway. [a bit sad]

[i_seethestrals]

[ Sympathetic. ] It's funny, isn't it? The things we miss when they're gone.

[origamiguardian]

[nod] It is. It's strange to miss being hit, or teased.

But I'm grateful for the friends I've found here. And the bookstores. [somehow these things go together]

[i_seethestrals]

[ Nods back. ] Yes. But I could do without the teasing.

...What about the bookstores?

[origamiguardian]

[brightens] There are wonderful bookstores here. Like the Strand.

[i_seethestrals]

Oh, that's fantastic! I know Professor Lupin has one, but I didn't have time to see the others...

[origamiguardian]

Mr. Lupin's store is wonderful. But if you'd like help finding any others, please let me know.

[i_seethestrals]

I think I'd like that very much.
