HOGWARTS:
A JAMJAR MEME

Wizards of all ages and from all times: whatever you were doing, wherever you were - none of that matters now. You've been brought to Hogwarts, school of witchcraft and wizardry. You’ll find yourself in the Great Hall under a starry sky, illuminated by the light of a thousand candles.

What happened? Why were you brought here? How were you brought here? All questions to be answered, perhaps. But first, mingle with your kind and find a seat for yourself. This will be your home for a while.

Because there is no leaving. Student, staff, you with nothing to do - all of you trapped inside the school grounds.

Sorting to houses & Start-of-term feast
Those of you who have not been sorted into your houses, you're guided to sit on a stool while an old hat will contemplate a proper house for you. After, you can join your housemates at their long table.

The ghost of the headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, will soon give a speech once the last student is sorted...

"The very best of evenings to you! Now… to our new students, welcome. To our old students, welcome back! Another year full of magical education awaits you…"

He will warn you about the anti-curse charm set upon Hogwarts and how it will bring harm in equal measures to yourself. He will urge you to stay calm and have a lemondrop; they’ll be provided at all tables.

Dumbledore would like you all to note few things, Hogwarts attendees:

1. This will be a continuous, no commitment necessary “storyline.”
What does that mean? Depending on the level of interest, there will be at least one post per month on the 3B-DR that will continue the storyline which begins here. Players are encouraged to make top-levels in the dressing room if they want to keep this verse going with their characters. Madame Rosmerta’s made a tag specifically for this.

2. Multiple versions of characters at various ages are welcome.
Whether that means there’s three Harry’s all in fifth year, or one Harry in first year, a second in third year, and a third in sixth year is up to you. All three Harry’s could also interact, depending on player preferences. AU versions of (HP)canon and non-(HP)canon characters are also welcome. Sometimes people disappear from Hogwarts and sometimes they come back.

3. Schoolwork
Dumbledore's ghost will invite all characters of age and knowledge to teach their specialties to the younger wizards. If your character could be possibly a teacher, or is interested in teaching, refer to this thread to sign up for a teaching position. The courses do not need to be anything serious (unless you want them to be). If your character would be interested in a course, you can look it up from the character's toplevel. Your character doesn't need to be of student age to participate in courses. (They're free for all!)

4. Sign up for your house.
Here is a thread for all the Hogwarts houses that your character could be sorted in.

5. This means… war!
Are you a Death Eater? A member of the Order? Rival students? It’s likely your character will encounter someone they don’t get along with. Duels are fine, but beware that any attacks meant to cause harm (curses) will backfire on the caster. If your character doesn’t care that damage will also bounce back to them, then Dumbledore’s ghost will be intervening. He won’t tolerate harm to any of his students… even if it’s harm to Tom.

6. Housecup
Of course points will be awarded and taken away by teachers and prefects. You can leave a comment in this thread for the points taken or given. Madam Rosmerta will add them up together for the next post. You can also sign up for a prefect role. Each house has one and that one will change in each post. First come, first serve is the rule, except if your character was a prefect in the last post, you can't sign up in this one.

1. Toplevel with your character

2. Tag other characters

3. Have fun!

[ ~~don't tell him to suck on those emotions he will not~~

it's not like he wants to revert back to a cold-blooded psychopath incapable of love. he's perfectly fine being a cold-blooded psychopath capable of love. it's just not very fun being able to feel things at every turn. he realizes he should be used to it by now, but he's not exactly in the body that's adapted to all the emotional turmoil life had decided to randomly smack him in the face with one night.

but he's happy to see his not-wife so spirited to see him. an unrepentant grin breaks through his normally impassive demeanor as she pushes him. he doesn't budge at all. instead, he reaches out to grab a hold of her wrist, pulling her against his chest. his right arm snakes around her waist as he leans down to plant a soft kiss on her forehead. he isn't even a tiny bit remorseful. ]

Scare you? Now, why would I attempt to scare you, Lily Lestrange? I don't have a death wish.

[ ~~it is 1000% flirting don't lie~~ ]

[ It's difficult to adapt to. Before this, they'd had years of experience. Years of working with the emotionless Rodolphus Lestrange and the Rodolphus Lestrange that had ~~murdered lord voldemort with her~~ made a family with her.

The grin makes her smile despite herself, free hand pressing to his chest like she's going to push herself away but she doesn't, just tips her head into the kiss instead. ]

You know you shouldn't call me that while we're here. [ Softer, though she grasps him by the chin to tug him down from the fucking stratosphere for a proper kiss. ] Besides, like you could resist me murderous.

[ ~~fine it's totally flirting~~ ]

You're my wife. What else would I— [ he's cut off as she pulls him down for a kiss. going along with it, he smiles into the blatant display of affection before it breaks and he finishes lightly: ] call you?

[ he doesn't argue with the rest because, well, it's true. ]

Where are you headed? [ his gaze shifts toward the forbidden forest as he reaches down to take a hold of her right hand. ] There...?

Mm. You know, I think you're right. [ She leans into him for a moment, just relaxing in the familiarity. It's funny - she remembers that this is how their bodies fit together then. Different than their normal time, but no less perfectly. Maybe it's part of being destined soul mates. She doesn't think on it much.

She threads their fingers when he takes her hand, nodding. ] I was thinking about it. I want to see how far out it will let us go. [ Which means she'll be happy enough to tug him forward into the forest in a moment. But first: ]

I've been meaning to ask you since Riddle is here. [ She's shifted as she speaks, pressed directly flush against him so that she can look up at him, green eyes bright and wicked. ] There are the curse preventatives in place, but... [ The nails of her free hand scrape along his side lightly, encouraging, goading-- ]

What do you think of an encore performance, my love?

[ Ah. ]

[ same line of thought. he wanted to see how far the barrier reached. perhaps, attempt to test its strength or see if he can sway it. likelihood of success will be more prevalent with lily at his side. their magic melds in a peculiar way – a blend of light and dark – which may assist in this endeavor. unfortunately, his concentration on this issue has temporarily been sidetracked.

please, wife. do not press your bosom flat against him. you know what it does to him.

he did foresee this conversation transpiring between them once tom riddle’s presence in the school came to light. it’s not surprising lily desires to get rid of him (and he finds it an extremely attractive quality in her), but, even if they are going to do it, they’re going to have to be careful with their approach. murdering him would require justification if they want to prevent chaos. ]

Why don’t we discuss it more in length while we take our walk? [ he lifts their intertwined hands as he presses his lips to the back of hers. ]

[ No, she knows precisely what she's doing. Lily has always been smart and her husband has many of the same buttons he always has. She knows he likes seeing her like this, and it's likely especially enticing as Riddle is the only one to get this intense of a reaction out of her.

A one-time treat has suddenly become something they can have a repeat of.

(She won't ever admit to anyone but him that she'd enjoyed it the first time, but he already knew anyway.)

Lily smiles at the kiss, rocking up onto tiptoe so that she can kiss his cheek with a soft hum. ] I think that would be prudent.

[ She continues to hold onto his hand as she moves toward the forest. It's been so many years but she still knows it well, knows how to disappear among the trees to be invisible from outside. She's curled close against his side, oddly at home in the dim light. ] Every time I see him I want it so badly, Rodolphus. I can hardly stand it.
