Speaking of adoption...did anyone else think the Sirius-Remus-Harry talk the other day may have been because the newlyweds may be wanting a baby?

I certainly hope it's not a baby! I was thinking that maybe it was a puppy, or another kind of animal.

1. Yes. Lucius has hired a private detective.

2. I don't think they'll get a baby. Maybe a pet. I think adopting a baby would make Harry feel unloved/unwanted, judging by his statements during the Veritaserum fiasco.

3. Neville: we have no idea. He hasn't posted recently.

4. Pansy: no idea. No one has mentioned her recently

5. Lilitou: Neville has denied involvement. Other than that, we don't know.

6. I would say no because in Parvati's last entry she mentioned that she isn't nearly as thin as Lavender.

7. Goyle's finger: Last I heard, he was searching but didn't find it. Maybe Pomfrey did some sort of Skele-Gro thing?

8. Colin has not announced his next meeting.

9. I've been wondering the same thing! She's disappeared off the face of the earth! ARGH!

Well it may seem a bit twee and cliché, but my first thought was that they could adopt Harry. As I said, cliché. Shoot me if it's been suggested elsewhere.

Not absolutely sure, but I think in one thread, perhaps one of the Veritaserum ones, Remus tells Hsrry that he and Sirius would adopt him the very next day if he wasn't nearly eighteen already. So, maybe twee and cliche, but cute. ;)

I've been pondering numbers one, four and nine also... I was really wondering about Pansy. I didn't realize the last thing from Herm was the ILY comment, so I guess I'm pretty biased.

On the other hand, perhaps RL is distracting the players? I figured that those who were semi-vital, but who didn't really update (like my dastardly boot_boy) were just too busy to play.

But no, Hermione is too crucial for that. Her absence means something for sure.

dragynville @ May 28 2003, 12:29:52 UTC

Where the hell is Hermione?? She hasn't posted a thing since the Veritaserum when she told Ron "I love you" and he didn't say it back!

When did that happen?! I totally missed that! Does anyone have a link to the thread, or know whose journal it was in?

notapipe @ May 28 2003, 13:09:24 UTC

I was wondering the same thing. I have found it.

dragynville @ May 28 2003, 13:27:10 UTC

Thanks! *glompage*

Loved the "touch Hermione and die" part! XD

notapipe @ May 28 2003, 12:32:09 UTC

Neville: Plotting in the Toadcave. (er, Frogcave, if you think Toadman sounds too much like the Brotherhood of Mutants dude) Plotting semi-EVIL, er, vigilante justice.

Goyle's finger: Found with Colin's assistance. Presumably fixed.

notapipe @ May 28 2003, 12:38:45 UTC

Also, you're wrong about Hermoine. She's been scarce, but that's usual.

For example, she commented on Colin's hate group, and answered Neville's call for memory charm books.

I think it's perfectly in character, since she should be freaking out about tests right about now and for the past month.

untiemybinds @ May 28 2003, 13:10:53 UTC

Notapipe knows all and sees all. He's like some weird nraged!God, but funnier.

Lisa Turpin actually told us here (near the end of the second paragraph) that Hermione is always in the library studying.

We all know how studious this girl is, she's studied to the point of utter exhaustion before has she not? (In canon that is.) If not then I must have dreamed it up, but whatever.

Besides even though I'm a newbie, I don't think she ever posted that regularly anyway.

notapipe @ May 28 2003, 14:36:59 UTC

*smites random nrager for fun*

You're thinking of CoS, where she was just too stupid to use the time turner to get extra sleep or something.

untiemybinds @ May 28 2003, 14:45:58 UTC

*runs around screaming* "AHHH!! He's coming for us!! HIDE!"

You just reminded me of a computer game I used to play a couple years ago where the player is god and can kill all the people and animals and destory/build their homes and such. I forget what it was called though.

Thanks for telling me which book it was, it would have bugged me otherwise.

notapipe @ May 28 2003, 16:36:06 UTC

Black and White? With the giant Monkey/Cow/Tiger?

I lied. It was PoA.

untiemybinds @ May 28 2003, 16:40:09 UTC

YES! That's it, Black & White. You've played?

notapipe @ May 28 2003, 16:59:01 UTC

Yes, but I got bored by the third or so island (the one with the fire dropping, I think), it wasn't a great game.

untiemybinds @ May 28 2003, 19:37:15 UTC

Ah, I'm not sure I even made it that far. It got boring pretty quickly.

tabiji @ May 28 2003, 19:50:25 UTC

One thousand pardons O Pipeless One.

But that still doesn't tell us what's going on (or not) with Hr/R!

sistermagpie @ May 28 2003, 20:03:46 UTC

Well, Ron has been stuck to Dean like glue lately so probably very little!

Poor Dean.

notapipe @ May 28 2003, 20:58:17 UTC

Hermoine is in the library. Ron is off buying really hideous clothes. And never the twain shall meet.

Anonymous @ May 31 2003, 13:20:47 UTC Neville just popped up again.

He posted to his own journal, where he says he's been busy studying. Remember, Snape had snowed the poor guy under with extra Potions work, and he says he's been reading up on memory blocks.

Wonder what he wants the private conference w/ Black for?

He just popped up again.

Anonymous @ May 31 2003, 13:25:32 UTC We'll try this a third time . .

I meant to say (twice now) that Neville has just popped up again on his own journal. (LJ has been randomly eating/overwriting the titles on my posts).
