Sorta. I was web browsing and found the text of the 800-word “prequel” Rowling wrote featuring Sirius and thought I'd pass it on-since it beats trying to make out her handwriting ( Read more... )

I have to say-I still hate James and Sirius-maybe even more now.

You mean you didn't think that that was, like, totally hot? I mean, the police chase, and the flying motorbike, and such sexy arrogance...

...

I must away for allowing my traitorous fingers to type that sentence; they have been sullied by lies and must be scrubbed to the bone before they are again worthy.

What? You mean you're not inspired to write Sirius/James slash now?

*scours brain with bleach*

I find myself terribly amused by your icon.

silburygirl July 14 2008, 03:33:08 UTC

At least then they won't be inflicted on anyone else!

It was difficult to give up my Arrested Development icon for it, but, I think, worth it. Comes in handy in times like these...

Aaaaaaaaah but 'a right pair of...' is a saying.

Actually, she's been reading fanfic.

harmony_bites July 14 2008, 07:32:47 UTC

Apparently not reading the good stuff if that's the source of the influence...

::was not impressed--but hey, it's Sirius and James, so that might have been impossible.::

lifeasanamazon July 14 2008, 07:35:20 UTC

I have so little interest in The Marauders. I only skimmed the piece looking for the 'right'!

That would have been hilarious to witness. I actually feel sorry for the baptists.

harmony_bites July 14 2008, 18:39:15 UTC

Hmmm--I might more, and there were I heard asses among the Potterheads, but many of the stories didn't exactly show the Baptists in a loving, turn the other cheek light. The newspaper blurb talks about how the Baptists would shut the elevators against any obvious Potter peeps. One of my friends said one girl tries to stop the closing doors with an arm and almost got seriously hurt.

I think I should clarify and say that I condescendingly feel sorry for the baptists - who must have been scared out of their wits by even the concept of Potterheads. Poor things. No wonder they wanted to close elevator doors on them - not that it justifies doing so, but still. The only thing worse for them would have been a BDSM convention in the same hotel.

Bwwwwwwaaaaaa. You have a point.

So, where is my new addiction more of your WIP. Aren't you supposed to keep to 500 words a day? Hmmmm?

Alas I missed the Death Eaters in the church photo op, but all of my interactions with the missionaries were cordial. Including the last one ( ... )

harmony_bites July 14 2008, 18:40:51 UTC

I believe the fine print on the money informs me that I will not be going to heaven.

Of course not! Me neither. Heaven for the climate, Hell for the company!

I wish someone had taken a shot of the Baptist buying me, though.

*snickers* That would have been worthy pic spam.

snarkywench_64 July 14 2008, 15:30:36 UTC

A good time was had by all ( ... )

harmony_bites July 14 2008, 18:44:55 UTC

WENCH!!!!!!! :glomps:

It could have been a recipe for disaster. Thankfully, it wasn't.

A friend and convention goer said one girl almost did get hurt when the elevator doors were closed against her--that she witnessed. She said though that from what she witnessed that people on both sides were acting like idiots--going out of the way to provoke.

However, Potter people are not the ones claiming sainthood...

And supposedly some of the young missionaries infiltrated (read: crashed) the Masquerade Ball, but I have no confirmation of that.

They did--my friend say them. They went in trying to press pamphlets on people.

Despite all that, I'm glad you had a great time. By and large I don't think this kind of event is for me, but I'll admit to some wistfulness that I didn't get to meet you and Bambu among others.
