[Wanders out onto the porch after a while, assuming he's been brought back to the house and has his clothes and such. Watches EGG the stag run around for a while.]

...so that creepy git I met before was Tom Riddle?

[cruxofapotter]

[Yes, yes, all that has happened. Right now, Ggs Prongs is cantering towards a tree.]

Yep. I reckon he's still about school age then. I dunno if he's killed Myrtle yet or not, but he's still dangerous.

[teaspoonrange]

[Leans just outside the front door, arms folded over his chest.]

Blimey. Y'don't think ...that if we did something about him now, it'd fix things?

[cruxofapotter]

[Flick of the wrist, sending Prongs patrolling down the road.]

Death doesn't last here, or I'd try. There's got to be some way to deal with him so that we don't have Lord Voldemort on our hands.

[teaspoonrange]

[Watches Prongs bounce off the way stags do, frowning.]

...death doesn't last, here? So we could kill him, and he'd just come back?

[cruxofapotter]

People lose something here every time they die, but they'll always come back. It'd be useful except for the fact that Voldemort and Snape are running around.

[teaspoonrange]

...No kidding. [Pushes away from the doorway and wanders over to sit nearish him.] ...this place is a ruddy mess.

[cruxofapotter]

[Shakes his head.] You're telling me, mate. None of it makes any sense.

[teaspoonrange]

[Still watching Prongs with mild interest.] Not to mention the wings are bloody obnoxious.

[cruxofapotter]

They're an absolute pain. Trying to sleep with them is annoying.

[teaspoonrange]

Not surprising. [Looks over his shoulder at his, then at Harry's.] Do they have any use?

[cruxofapotter]

Apparently we die when they get cut off, but that's about all I know. Otherwise they just look stupid.

[teaspoonrange]

...Brilliant. [Sarcasm. Ron has it.]

[cruxofapotter]

[This is why we love Ron.] Just like everything else in this place. I mean, some of it is alright, like that wolf Animagus, but it does stupid things like bring Voldemort here.

[teaspoonrange]

[Oh hey topic change.] There's a wolf Animagus?

[cruxofapotter]

Er... I think they're a wolf Animagus. She seems brighter than a normal animal and has very humanlike responses. She even tagged me for a dodgeball team. I just haven't seen her human form.
