Tag into this post with characters you're thinking of apping to the game (characters who are not currently in-game or currently reserved by someone else). It can be just a tag, a brief EP, whatever you want. You can be new to the game, or simply want to test out a fresh pup. Tag each other with these characters or those already in game, and have fun.

Also, please include the name of their canon somewhere in or on the comment or on their profile page.

Re: Harry Potter

[isolemnly_swear]

.... Harry?

[who_lived]

...

Dad? But I don't...I don't understand.

[isolemnly_swear]

Harry, I'm so proud of you. [moves to wrap his arms around him, probably too tight] You look so much like your mother.

[who_lived]

[Harry tenses, unused to being hugged by anyone, let alone his dad who is supposed to be dead. He wonders if this is some trick, if Voldemort's found a way to make him see things. Or maybe this is some extra school test, one he hasn't yet passed.

But after another moment, he decides he doesn't care. He returns the hug, clinging himself.]

Really? They always tell me I look like you.

[He glances up to look at James.] So if you're here and I come here does that mean I don't have to go back to the Durseleys this summer?

[isolemnly_swear]

That's the hair, I'm afraid.

[he smiles, but there's a tinge of sadness to it] I'm here. If you stay, I have a cottage for us. But Harry, that's... That's not always up to us.

[who_lived]

I think it's also because I tend to get into trouble wherever I go, too.

[Harry frowns, and he clings, just a little tighter.]

I don't want to go back, now that I know you're here and alive. Is mum here too?

[isolemnly_swear]

[can't help but grin at that, but it fades at the question]

She was, but she had to go. Trust me Harry, I want you to stay too. More than anything.

[who_lived]

Did she...

[Harry hesitates, not wanting to ask the question on the tip of his tongue, but finding himself unable to keep from doing so.]

Did she go back home?

[To being dead, he adds in his head.]

[isolemnly_swear]

Somewhere better, I hope.

[who_lived]

Me too.

[He hasn't yet let go of James and isn't planning on doing so anytime soon.]

Is this place magic, then? That it can bring people and then take them away?
