CHARACTERS: Jo Harvelle, Annabeth Chase James Potter and more
LOCATION: all over the place!
WARNINGS: can range from gore to psychological things to fluff
SUMMARY: these are my planned empathy links for October, taking place between october 11th through november 7th.
NOTES: this is closed to plotting, but I am still open if you would like to get in on this. my plotting post is here, so leave a comment there and we can make it work.


Because of how behind I am in general RP-terms, I am bowing down and kissing the ground you walk on and asking if you could possibly maybe PLEASE do the starter, if we have pre-plans with our characters. I know everyone's busy and everyone has a life but this would help me IMMENSELY like you don't even know.

HOWEVER, I have no problems with doing the starters if you're having problems with writing them up or coming up with something, so please let me know through plurk disarmingly if you'd prefer I did the opener, which is totally fine! Really! I'm just so behind and I don't anyone to have to wait on me for the start of things.

Also let me know if I have mixed something up or if I misunderstood something with the plotting. c:

"Plenty of practice." Which either means that he works hard or that he's dealt with a great many Dementors. Or both. "Once you get the hang of it, they're a great way to pass messages. If you'd like, if you haven't learned yet, I could show you?"

They have the network and communicators, but Harry doesn't trust the system to last.

James gets the feeling this has been more real-world practice than studying for an exam, which doesn't make him feel any better. But then he just shakes his head, smiling at bit at his own memory.

"Nah, I've got my patronus down. It was something of an obsession of Remus' back in fifth year, that we figured it out. Haven't used it much for messages, though."

Lily has. James remembers seeing her doe come and find him during the pirate invasion, and he shifts his feet.

Harry has never been very good at small talk and he's at a bit of a loss for what he ought to say next. Talking about magic is comparatively safe territory, but he's never been very good at playing it safe.

"I saw your parents and a bit of Hogwarts when you there." It might be noteworthy to mention that he saw 'James' parents' and not 'his own grandparents'. "That's ...umm, what were their names? If you don't mind me asking?"

Usually James is much better at this, but he could blame the tension (he is mostly to blame for) between the two of them. Safe or no, he's glad when Harry continues.

When he says your parents it takes James a moment to realize he's talking about Harry's grandparents. The idea of his mother as a grandmum makes him want to smile, but he holds it back. "Quintus and Margaret. What'd you see?" There's nothing much behind his question other than simple curiosity.

"Nothing too personal. It was all little bits of good things. Hogwarts. Your family. Lily. I'm sorry that I saw them without asking, but I'm glad I did." Harry can't deny that it feels good good to fill in a little bit more beyond the photo album. While he's gotten used to thinking about Remus and Sirius as teens, it's odd to see other familiar faces from Hogwarts so much younger.
