[Hermione's day is just like any normal day, except for one major difference: When she gets back home, she notices there's something she hasn't seen in months wandering around the apartment. Electrical appliances. What on earth are they doing here? So of course she investigates. Housemates are welcome to stumble upon her or they can wait for the ( Read more... )

Why would someone....

[Eh, nevermind. She gets it.]

Hm. My place has them, as well. Some changes I've seen before, but I don't recognize everything.

You'd be surprised what people will do.

This is called electricity. It'll make our lives so much easier.

I've seen electricity before, but not some of these kitchen items. What's the small box, with all the buttons?

[Voice] loyalotter March 23 2010, 13:37:33 UTC

It might be a toaster. Are there two long slits at the top, about large enough for a slice of bread?

Pull one of the smaller new appliances away from the wall. Connecting the appliance to the wall should be a thin black cord. Where the cord plugs into the wall there should be a thin rectangular shape. That's an outlet. If you pull the base of the cord hard enough, it'll come apart from the outlet. Just be sure not to put anything in the outlet. It won't feel good.

[Well of course it is. Hermione's almost never wrong.] Yes, but what type and where it is, I'm not sure. [Her voice trails off as she glances outside.]

I figured that was kind of obvious.

[Voice] loyalotter March 23 2010, 03:11:14 UTC

Well good for you, then. I just thought I'd give a warning in case other people have never seen electricity before.

[Voice] markofthewise March 23 2010, 03:13:04 UTC

Yeah. My sister isn't quite used to the stuff yet. I think it's neat and very useful.

[Voice] loyalotter March 23 2010, 03:15:41 UTC

It takes time, but it's very useful. I hope it stays for a while.

If you'd like to get electrocuted, go ahead.

[If she weren't genuinely worried, she'd yell at you... oh wait, this is Hermione. Her "genuinely worried" translates into yelling.]

I said don't do that!

We got them too.

[Voice] loyalotter March 23 2010, 04:26:00 UTC

Sounds like everyone did.

[Voice] god_is_a_dude March 23 2010, 04:47:56 UTC

Yeah, seems to be the case.

[Voice] loyalotter March 23 2010, 13:42:59 UTC

This will make life so much easier.
