Ah~ Sweet freedom. Sweet food that isn't sandwiches. (Not that I'm not grateful - thank you for that, by the way. I'm sure we would have starved in that library otherwise.) It's good to be able to walk around without falling through holes too, though they were kind of fun to navigate. Just when I'd gotten the hang of them all I was suddenly locked in the library!

Ah, well. It's better this way anyway. You can't really get anything done when you're stuck in one room!

So. ...Have you had any luck finding anything new?

Snip is difficult.

I see. So you couldn't find out anything from him?

All I said was that it's been difficult.

Oh, okay. So what did he tell you then?

Re: [Spelled to James]

[identity profile] cockofthewok.livejournal.com 2008-08-27 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
Uh ...it's nothin' really ... important ...

Oh? If it's not important, then you should just say it, Padfoot.

Re: [Spelled to James]

If it's not important then why bother?

[Spelled to Sirius]

[identity profile] pottershotter.livejournal.com 2008-08-27 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
Because every piece of information that can help us change things is important.

So spill, if you found out anything from him.

Prongs ..... what I found out you don't need to know. Trust me, alright?

[Spelled to Sirius]

[identity profile] pottershotter.livejournal.com 2008-08-27 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
I think you're wrong. There's nothing we don't need to know, regarding this. We need to know all of it, or else we won't stand a chance at changing anything.

Re: [Spelled to James]

Look ... James. This isn't something you should have to deal with. It's ... personal, alright?

[Spelled to Sirius]

[identity profile] pottershotter.livejournal.com 2008-08-31 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
I don't care if I should or shouldn't have to deal with it. In choosing to change things, I've already made the choice to deal with it. I know it's not going to be all happiness and sunshine.

But every piece of it is important. All of it's important. Every detail makes a difference.

As your friend, as your best friend. I'm not fucking telling you.

[Spelled to Sirius]

[identity profile] pottershotter.livejournal.com 2008-08-31 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
...

...Well. It's a good thing I don't have to rely on you for that information then. I already know, Sirius. I found out several days ago.

Re: [Spelled to James]

[identity profile] cockofthewok.livejournal.com 2008-08-31 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
.... I'm going to fucking kill him.

[Spelled to Sirius]

[identity profile] pottershotter.livejournal.com 2008-08-31 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
That's hardly wise, killing our only informant. Besides, I wanted to know. I didn't even have to ask him though. Ridiculously enough, he seemed to be under the impression that you would have told me, or something silly like that, being my best friend and all.

Re: [Spelled to James]

[identity profile] cockofthewok.livejournal.com 2008-08-31 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
If you found out something like that about me would you have told me?

I wanted to keep you safe Prongs. I didn't want you to have to know you died.

That we all die.

[Spelled to Sirius]

[identity profile] pottershotter.livejournal.com 2008-08-31 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
I would have. It's hard, I know. It's really hard. But...we'd already suspected that something terrible happened. If we don't know what it is, then there's no hope of changing it at all.

So really, not saying anything doesn't keep anyone safe at all. It lowers our odds of surviving. Our odds of preventing Remus from being alone in the end, of growing old together.

Would that be better? To be ignorant of our futures and let him suffer? To just, let it all happen without doing a thing? Everything is important. No matter what it is.

And what if we can't fix things Potter? What if we all die anyway? What happens to all this nobility crap?

I'd rather you be able to life your life and try figuring this out myself then finding out that there's nothing we can do and being the reason you have a shit life.

[Spelled to Sirius]

[identity profile] pottershotter.livejournal.com 2008-08-31 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
Well, at least will have given it our best. I'm not going to be giving up. Not a chance.

Then I guess you'll be disappointed, because I plan to continue. I want to know everything I can about our future. The more we know, the more we can change. If there's something I can do, then damn it I'm going to do it. My life won't be shit for it, even if I fail, because I'll know I did everything I fucking could. In any case, you wouldn't be the reason for it.

You know what. Talk to me when your head cools.

[Spelled to Sirius]

[identity profile] pottershotter.livejournal.com 2008-08-31 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
It's not a matter of cooling my head. I'll talk to you when you're willing to act as a team with this again.

I think I liked the holes better than being trapped in the library, but at least it was an excuse to show off my drills!

[identity profile] pottershotter.livejournal.com 2008-08-27 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
Your drills were bloody amazing. I've never seen anything like them before! But the holes were better than being locked away in the library.

[identity profile] badass-flayvor.livejournal.com 2008-08-27 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
And I didn't even use the big ones! At least getting around gaping holes was more interesting than reading books all day. It reminds me too much of school, and they didn't even have that many books on alchemy!

[identity profile] pottershotter.livejournal.com 2008-08-27 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
You've got bigger drills than that? That's incredible!

Mm, you're right. It's a little too much like being in class. ...What, you know about alchemy?

[identity profile] badass-flayvor.livejournal.com 2008-08-27 03:29 pm (UTC)(link)
I could show them you sometime, if you want.

It's like being stuck in a class I forgot to skip... blech. Of course I do, I've been at AL-Revis Academy for five years up until now--it's a huge school for teaching people alchemy! The work is boring, but there are plenty of interesting people there.

THIS IS NOT BELATED?!

[identity profile] pottershotter.livejournal.com 2008-08-31 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
I'd love that, actually. I wonder if I could manage it figure out how to do it myself...

Really? That's incredible. You don't hear too much about alchemy in my parts. Too bad the work is boring, but interesting people should make up for it!

If I had had to eat one more sandwich, I would have set something on fire.

[identity profile] pottershotter.livejournal.com 2008-08-31 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
Then I guess it's good we got out when we did! Though I can understand. I don't think I'll want to even look at a sandwich for a long while now.

[identity profile] flaming-for-yuu.livejournal.com 2008-09-01 09:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Precisely. Fire in a library is never a good idea...

What was your name, again? I'm Wolfram von Bielefeld.

[ooc: No worries, and sorry my reply's late! I was away this weekend. XD;]

[identity profile] pottershotter.livejournal.com 2008-09-02 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
No, not really. The whole thing would be up in flames in seconds.

I'm James Potter. Nice meeting you, Wolfram!

Hey, at least you weren't locked in with some crazy weirdo! Uh. Aside from Sev, but he didn't seem to be too bad other than being the normal grouch.

[identity profile] pottershotter.livejournal.com 2008-08-31 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
Eh, he's been a grouch ever since he was a kid. Really, it kind of makes him a bit of a weirdo.
