video; open to both courts

[thebreakingwave]

[The video feed shows a young man, with messy dark hair and bright eyes standing outside in a garden. Behind him there are weeping willows, a collection of thorny bushes and some fine, purple flowers. It's fairly obvious just which courtyard he's standing in.]

Hullo, I'm Harry. I'm an Auror, from Britain. If your world doesn't have those, it's a sort of wizard that's a cross between an officer of the peace and a soldier.

[There's a tilt to his chin that suggests he is fully aware how young he is and has a voice choice words for anyone that would like to register a complaint about his chosen profession.]

I was thinking that I'd like to get to know everyone a little better and that I'm sure each of us has some unique or interesting thing they can do or teach. Either a language, a craft, or even just a bar trick you can use to get a free pint.

And for anyone here at Caer Scima, if you're just learning magic or if you'd like someone to spar with that focuses on magical attack and defense, I'd be happy to help.

We don't got wizards in my universe, but I've always wanted to meet one! [ she flashes him a bright grin ] Name's Roxy!

It's lovely to meet you, Roxy! May I ask what you do back in your universe?

[ .........................

i'll tell you what she definitely posilutely doesn't do.

she definitely doesn't write wizard fic, and she posilutely doesn't write said fic in a way that (lovingly!!!) metatextually parodies the harry potter stories in any way shape or form.

but then what is she going to tell him? she spends her days fangirling wizards? playing video games?.... ]

[gnostalgia]

[ that she played a world-altering video game that basically destroyed the world and now she's stuck in the medium waiting for the four "gods" to show up so they can finish their session and bring down the batterwitch?

that she's waiting to see her motherdaughter? that she died and became a god-like being herself?

roxy scrunches up her face in thought. ]

[gnostalgia]

Aw, y'know... nothing interesting. [ beat ] It's prolly totally stupid-lame compared to all the shit and shenanigans I betcha get up to.

[ nailed it. ]

[thebreakingwave]

Honestly, I don't think I get up to anything all that wild. Or if I do, it just sounds that way because you're not used to wizards.

[ What? It's true. Sort of. ]
