RP: Open Shelter
Date: Friday, December 21, 2005
Characters: Wayne Hopkins, Anyone Else
Location: Community Centre
Status: Public
Summary: The community centre opens as a shelter
Completion: Incomplete
The weather was fucking awful. It had been since last weekend, but the past few days had just been even worse. The Muggle news reports were saying it was the worst winter in decades, and Wayne could believe that. The snow was building up and walking outside was extremely difficult. Even personal warming charms weren't working for long, and the Muggle heat had begun to stop working yesterday in several people's houses.
When Sammons announced that the community centre would open as a shelter, Wayne helped gather blankets and cast enough heating charms to warm up the centre well enough for everyone who needed to stay there. The orphanage had already moved in, and he was in the process of helping bring the elderly citizens who lost their heat to stay. Several volunteers had brought food and were working on making hot chocolate and soup to warm people up.
It was a mess, but it was warm and people were working together, so it'd get better. He just hoped the weather calmed down soon, because they couldn't stay here indefinitely. He was supposed to go to David's flat for the weekend, but he'd just get there late. For now, he had to get Mrs. Johnson and Mr. Hartley, and neither of them had a Floo, so he had to walk through the snow. He looked outside and sighed before he pulled his coat tight around him and headed back outside.
