feorge[ video || backdated to the morning of 12/08 ]
[For a moment, there's only the view of a closed door and the faint whispering of someone counting down. 'Three, two, one' - and the door is flung open to film one sleeping Ginny Weasley, but not for long. Immediately thereafter, fireworks start booming outside her window, brilliant lights and colors flashing across the room as George, Harry and Fred barge in, throwing confetti all about the room and cheering unintelligibly.
Ginny was fast asleep — in her own room, mind, not Harry's because she knows they would never have any peace and quiet otherwise - completely oblivious to the fact that Something Wicked This Way Comes. She isn't in a warzone, hasn't been in one for years; but when the room erupts in noise and light and maniacal laughter, she reacts...reflexively.
The youngest (not so youngest) Weasley bolts upright with her wand in hand before she's even entirely awake, firing off vicious hexes in the direction of the shadows moving in her bedroom. One of which being her signature Bat-Bogey Hex.]
EAT BOGIES, YOU BLOODY PIECE OF—
[Shouts and yelps as the highly deserving intruders attempt to evade her attacks. There's a shout - is that George? - to 'Retreat!' but the cameraman goes down, sending the device scattering off to the corner of the room to catch the tail end of Harry and George's escape as Fred rolls around on the floor, struggling with something on his face.]
... Fred? [This is what you get for surprising your sister. She makes an irritated noise and throws another hex his way for the trouble.] You arse!
[Fred barely manages the counter-spell in time to free his face from the bogeys and narrowly dodge the second attack, but he lays on the ground aching in pain anyway, laughing tiredly and dragging himself towards the device.]
Worth it. So bloody worth it.

Date: 2011-12-13 12:59 am (UTC)What do you want to know? It's not that interesting, as far as I'm aware. [ Offer a little information, nothing about dream sharing, and maybe he'll be satisfied. ]

Date: 2011-12-13 06:48 am (UTC)An architecture student, aye? Which means you're at a Muggle uni. What's that like?
no subject
Date: 2011-12-13 08:19 am (UTC)Well, I'm going to school in Paris, so it's a bit different than it would be stateside or in Britain. I think the basics are the same, though -- go to class, do your work and do it well, and you'll do okay. There's a lot to get done and the professors demand a lot, especially if you're going into something so hands-on, at least when it comes to classes. Outside of that... it depends on who you are, the people you meet, and where you are. It's the first time away from home for a lot of people and some of them go crazy. I'm still not sure how they can afford drinks on top of tuition, but... priorities, I guess.

[...Fascinating doesn't always mean sensible. Madder by the minute.]
no subject
Date: 2011-12-18 11:24 pm (UTC)Yeah. Pay to get a degree, use that degree to get a decent job so you can pay off your student loans...
[ She shrugs. ]
It's not great, but you do what you have to do.

Date: 2011-12-19 02:01 am (UTC)Like Hell it is. George and I dropped out our last year before starting up the shop. We've never put much faith in "what you have to do."

I digress. You'll have your walk through of Hogwarts from every stone in the courtyard to our favourite secret passages. Just let me know when you're free.

I'm going to need it before Christmas with a fair amount of time to spare.

I'm not really sure what else he'd like.

Date: 2011-12-19 06:37 am (UTC)No, no, that's brilliant. Hogwarts was the first home Harry ever had. I'm sure he'll love it.

Date: 2011-12-19 06:46 am (UTC)I've got a few basics down from what Harry's told me, but I want to make it as accurate as I can. Right now I'm thinking at least one outside view -- including the grounds, lake with the squid, gamekeeper hut, and part of the forst -- but I've got no idea where to start on the inside. For that matter, "Scottish castle" still doesn't tell me as much as I would like about the exterior.
[ Whoops. Sorry, Fred; she's got a project that she can really sink her teeth into. ]

Date: 2011-12-19 07:09 am (UTC)Blimey. I really am going to have to recall every pebble, aren't I?
private;
Date: 2011-12-19 06:11 pm (UTC)[ She doesn't sound sorry at all. ]
... Actually, I may need to borrow you for Ginny's, too.
