Ollivander's Roleplaying
I apologize for the misunderstanding in the Ollivander's shop. It was simply a mischosen word. A better phrase would be accompanied by. It was not an action that Ollivander committed but  Theomeres bow corresponded with the word. Again I apologize.

Thank you very much!

Clearing Classes
If you could clear the classroom and its archives for the class(es) your teacher(s) teach, that would be great. Please let me know when you are done, thank you. (I already cleared Potions for you, by the way.)

ALSO HI!

Head's Up
In effort to give the users who RP Aurors something to do, I've invented some NPC cases for them to go out on, based on the history I wrote about [Benjamin's family]. If you want Renee to come in and brief Draco, I can do that. <font face="Harrington" size="5"><font color= "#199EBF">This <font color="#00B8E6">above <font color="#00CCFF"> all <font color= "#00E6E6">else... <font color="#00FFFF">to <font color="#80FFFF"> thine <font color="#99FFD6"> own <font color="#00FF99"> self <font color="#80FF80"> be <font color="#00FF00"> true. 00:09, October 18, 2015 (UTC)

Sorting Quiz
Hi, Jisk! So Jay, Lissy, Ck and I were discussing the sorting quiz, and we were wondering if we could attempt to update it? The current one doesn't seem like a particularly good judge of character, and it's often disregarded by both sorters and users putting a character in for sorting. The questions about which house a user wants and doesn't want, while canonically correct, can often make sorters feel guilty if they have to sort into another house. We were also hoping for some more open-ended questions, maybe? That way users would have to put more thought into characters, which would hopefully make them more invested in them and encourage them to keep them after a certain amount of time - it would also reduce the amount of character bans, as people would have to put some more effort into characters. We liked the look of this quiz specifically, or something along those lines with added detail? We thought we'd propose it, anyway, even if we can sort well enough with just personality sections. 17:35, October 20, 2015 (UTC)

When you're around..
Hi! I just wanted to let you know that whenever you're around/available, either Ck or I have something to discuss with you. So, if you can catch one of us one chat, that would be great! Hope everything is well!

You are, and always have been, my dream.  I love you more than there are stars in the sky and fish in the sea.  19:49, October 27, 2015 (UTC)

Miss you!
I had some strange sort of dream last night that when I woke up.... I thought about how much I miss seeing you around. Hope life is well. <font face="Harrington" size="5"><font color= "#199EBF">This <font color="#00B8E6">above <font color="#00CCFF"> all <font color= "#00E6E6">else... <font color="#00FFFF">to <font color="#80FFFF"> thine <font color="#99FFD6"> own <font color="#00FF99"> self <font color="#80FF80"> be <font color="#00FF00"> true. 15:53, November 19, 2015 (UTC)

A need for a trial?
Hey Jisk. :) So, in effort to use Tori Summers a bit more, Jay has come up with a storyline that has ended in a potential need for a Wizengamont full trial. Let me explain, and link you to some RPs, and perhaps we can come up with something.

Tori has multiple personality disorder, and it's become murderous. Tori is aware of this other personality, and its actions... and so when she ended up killing someone, she came in and confessed, wanting to keep the Wizarding World safe from herself. The story of the MPD sounds a bit convenient, but as she self-confessed, Renee brought in the Head Healer, and Hope also questioned her, and was given the names to some people from Tori's past who knew of her condition. Tori's old doctor came and had a chat with Hope in Hope's office, where Hope learned that this other personality has clearly escalated from ripping wings off butterflies, when Tori was a child, to ending human life.

Jay has been very thorough in her research of Tori's condition, and of cooperating throughout this process. My understanding is Jay is hoping she'll be hospitalized at St. Mungo's, rather than imprisoned in Azkaban.

Usually with cases we see on the wiki, everything is pretty cut and dry, and we've never needed a Wizengamont trial... but I think this case probably needs one.

So, with all that said... what are your thoughts?

<font face="Harrington" size="5"><font color= "#199EBF">This <font color="#00B8E6">above <font color="#00CCFF"> all <font color= "#00E6E6">else... <font color="#00FFFF">to <font color="#80FFFF"> thine <font color="#99FFD6"> own <font color="#00FF99"> self <font color="#80FF80"> be <font color="#00FF00"> true. 16:47, November 21, 2015 (UTC)


 * So... to clarify... we wouldn't have to do a trial? If Tori can be proved "questionably sane" she just gets shipped off to St. Mungo's.... no questions asked? <font face="Harrington" size="5"><font color= "#199EBF">This <font color="#00B8E6">above <font color="#00CCFF"> all <font color= "#00E6E6">else... <font color="#00FFFF">to <font color="#80FFFF"> thine <font color="#99FFD6"> own <font color="#00FF99"> self <font color="#80FF80"> be <font color="#00FF00"> true. 04:16, November 22, 2015 (UTC)

Muggle Technology
I know you're not online as often nowdays, but me and Kibby were discussing a theory and CK mentioned that you're interested in it, so I thought we'd let you know about it :D Basically, me and Kib (well, mainly Kib) have been researching ways to incorporate Muggle technology into the magical world and have them work smoothly. A blog will be up tomorrow, and way more details will be there, but if by chance you're online before then, this is just a notice. We've found several ways it might work, along with canon proof of it working, and if it does actually work, this could be a pretty big deal in the magical world.

Hope to see you soon! <font face="Garamond" size="3"> It is the music of the people <font face="Garamond" size="3"> who will not be slaves again.  22:51, November 24, 2015 (UTC)

Question
I signed my character, Elina Ström, up for a job in the Ministry of Magic here, and I was just wondering when and how I will found out if she has been accepted in the preferred position. -- I suspect the nargles are behind it. 18:38, November 30, 2015 (CST)

As odd as this may sound coming from a stranger. I thought about you earlier today.

Head for Technological Advancement
I signed up someone for said position; I don't mind if she gets it or not, tbh. I just figured I'd put her hat in the ring, and honestly, Lucy's character Cedrica is more qualified, so once she graduates and works under Sachi for a year or to, Sachi might switch positions with her... Or something. Not sure.

Rambling. Sorry. Figured I'd let you know.

Oh. And I miss you. Early Merry Christmas. Trust me, you're getting an owl for when it actually /does/ roll around.

Block
Hey Jiskran,

It's me, from AoS wiki. I got on yesterday to edit and realized that I had been blocked because of an "Unacceptable Comment". At first, I thought it was a mistake. Well, here's what happened.

I pranked my older brother pretty bad last week, and his idea of "revenge" was wreaking habit on any of my social media or anything he had access to. Apparently, I he knew my account password, and he attempted to vandalize Agents of Shield wiki via my account. But, he didn't know the MenacePotatoe password. So, from what information I got out of him, he used the "Wiki Contributor" to vandalize and similar. I think when you blocked him, it blocked the whole IP address, and now I can't log in over on my PC. As I'm sure you may know, the ban doesn't end until late January, so I'd be unable to edit until then.

Anyway, I figured I should let you know what happened. I wanted to let you know that I would never intentionally compromise the integrity of the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. wiki, or any wiki out there.

Ministry questions
Hello, Jisk :D I had a question about the Ministry. Do you think it would be possible for upper school Hogwarts students - sixth and seventh years, possibly - to get apprenticeships with the Ministry? I'm not sure if you've seen Kibby and I's blog on how technology could work in Hogwarts, but if that proves successful, surely that's a massive leap in technology in the Magical world, and there's a whole department on that in the Ministry. Surely the characters involved in that discovery would receive some attention from that department? Again, it's just a thought. Nice talking to you - it's been a while :) <font face="Garamond" size="3"> It is the music of the people <font face="Garamond" size="3"> who will not be slaves again.  15:18, December 27, 2015 (UTC)

Ministry?
Hey, Jisk. Nowhere did I find any evidence of a Minister change, so I'm assuming Draco is still Minister? If so, does that mean you're over the registration? I have a character patiently waiting :D.

Ollivander's Wand Shop
Hi,

I was just wondering how conventional it is for up-and-coming students to RP their wand selection. I've noticed you were the one in charge of that, so I thought it would be a good idea to ask you.

Hi, I&#39;m Surfer and I&#39;m full of interesting facts! (talk) 14:35, January 9, 2016 (UTC)

It might be time... :P

RE:
Well, I was planning on sorting him once everything pointed out was corrected, but if you get to it before I do... :P And, by the way, you don't have to ask whether you should do a hat quote, or a simple sorting-- you can do whichever you like. It is, after all, your way of sorting. :P

Hogwarts Super Final

When I first joined, I remember looking at the leaderboard. And I remember thinking there was no way I'd ever make it on that page, let alone touch the number of points you have.

A little over two years later... the unthinkable happened.

About that RP...
If you're still up for that RP we arranged ages ago but still haven't got round to (sorry!), I've been looking at Steve Shunpike's page, and he seems interesting :D Here are my characters, so if you like, pick whichever one, student or adult, seems the most compatible. :) <font face="Garamond" font color="black" size="3">The curves   <font face="Garamond" font color="black" size="3">of your lips  | <font face="Garamond" font color="black" size="3">rewrite <font face="Gabriola" font color="#ff99bb" size="4.5">history <font face="Garamond" font color="black" size="3">. 17:14, March 3, 2016 (UTC)

Ahh - thank you! (re: Jackson Sills)
I just wanted to message you back thanking you for sorting him (I was a bit worried that his Tragic Backstory was a bit overboard, by my standards) and for tacking the sorting's bubble on the end. It really adds a lot to the experience, especially knowing that someone else has read over the forum, approves, and goes through the trouble to quote Rhianna (among other fascinating references I had to look up). Anyways, I just wanted to express my appreciation and say how well you write the eccentricity and novelty of The Hat. Thank you, again! HugCartel (talk) 18:17, March 20, 2016 (UTC)

Re. WASA
Hi!

So I was thinking, Roxane Oduba would probably be looking for a graduate job at the end of this academic year, so maybe if she could have a position? She could probably come for an interview or something and see what works for her?

Hey
So, I had given one of my characters a wand, but it doesn't seem like it fits her, so could you maybe help me RP her finding a wand? And would you like to RP besides Ollivander's sometime?

Thank you! And maybe Luc and Jacinthe Mercier? She might be familiar with him, seeing that she attends Beauxabatons and he runs Drumstrang. Do you have a preference for location?

Godric's Hollow work? It would be perfect for his Phoenix. Do you want to go first or want me to?

Herbology
Whichever, older or younger, that you prefer. The younger students are usually more active and more people post which is fun, but the older students get more in depth about magical theory and things like spell-resistance. The plans I've been using are here, though of course feel free to change them in any way you like. Let me know which years you'd prefer and we'll make it work, from traditional (1st-4th/5th-7th) to odd (I do odds you do evens) etc. <font face="cursive" size="3" color="#104E8B" >Bond_em7 (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 12:20, April 20, 2016 (UTC)

Redone Forums
Hey, Jisk! So, there are some forums that are redos. Those forums are supposed to be approved solely by Jay or myself, as result of one of the recent votes DARP held, since we're the ones that know best of the Percy Jackson series. I'd appreciate it if all those forums that are redos you left for me and/or Jay to sort. Thank you! :)

New #1
I know you were not the one who was supposed to sort my "redo" for technical reasons and therefore it probably does not count, I still wanted to thank you for two reasons. I am actually keeping that one for personal reasons whether or not I actually get to use it for my character. Thanks again!

There's quite a few applications you might want to go over. :) <font face="Harrington" size="5"><font color= "#199EBF">This <font color="#00B8E6">above <font color="#00CCFF"> all <font color= "#00E6E6">else... <font color="#00FFFF">to <font color="#80FFFF"> thine <font color="#99FFD6"> own <font color="#00FF99"> self <font color="#80FF80"> be <font color="#00FF00"> true. 16:22, May 21, 2016 (UTC)

Heyyy
So, I was talking to Ck, because I'm not very intelligent, and I needed a translation...and basically we're guessing that Saffron is pro tempore because Merisa might bring her character back...but that character has been gone for a longgg time now, and we have reason to believe that she won't be brought back ever? :) I don't know what's to happen with that. I was just told that I should probably let you know. :P

Impasse
Hey Jisk ^_^ So, a few days ago, someone (I can't remember who) asked if wizards could get cancer. Apparently the answer was "no", but I wondered where that came from so when Jaye, who I think answered the original question, came on, I asked her where she got her information from. (That would be this article by Rowling herself.) (I hope it's okay I copy and paste this next part from my owl to Ck. I tried to edit out most of my post-argument aggression.)

Rowling's article, which covers non-magical sicknesses/ailments in general, states that wizards are "a wizard could catch anything a Muggle might catch, but he could cure all of it; he would also comfortably survive a scorpion sting that might kill a Muggle, whereas he might die if bitten by a Venomous Tentacula. Similarly, bones broken in non-magical accidents such as falls or fist fights can be mended by magic, but the consequences of curses or backfiring magic could be serious, permanent or life-threatening". This, to me, clearly says that a wizard can definitely have something life-threatening, such as AIDS or cancer, but it would only be deadly if the wizard refused all treatment. (Such things as the cold or the flu would most likely not be life threatening at all, both because muggle immune systems, if uncompromised, deal with minor viruses well, and because "wizards have an enviable head start over the rest of us in dealing with the flu".) Several users on the admin team think that no muggle ailment can kill a wizard, which makes no sense to me because the article says that, in most cases, it's the magical healing that does the trick moreso than a wizard's immune system.

Jaye cited this Harry Potter Wiki article to support her claim, but the article itself is speculative: "Due to the protection provided by their innate and deliberately used magic, it appears wizards are rarely or never killed by mundane or non-magical forces, whether non-magical diseases and disorders or accidental collisions, drownings, falls, etc." This statement is not reliable as canon information because not only does it leave room for error, it also leaves room for choice (see the bolded "or"). I checked the sources section for that article, and Rowling's article is not listed. I also checked the page's history and the date Rowling's article was published (sometime around July 31, 2014), and the HP wiki article does not appear to have been updated according to Rowling's information. I pointed out that the article was not definitive and slightly at odd's with Rowling's undeniably canon information, but was told to drop the issue instead of given an explanation as to why we were coming to different conclusions.

Naturally I did not drop the issue, and I do not plan to until someone can clear it up. This is not because a wizard's susceptibility to muggle illnesses is just that important, because it really isn't that big a deal (but it does introduce some possible storylines, such as for muggleborns who don't yet know the full extent of magic, or for a depressing ending to a character), but because the reaction to my opposition to higher administrators' conclusion was recieved...badly. I have spent the last hour reading the three cited articles, checking the sources listed on the HP wiki article, and trying to figure out what I'm missing, but the conlusions I come to are that a) Rowling's article is being misread, b) they don't care or c) they think that allowing wizards to be susceptible to muggle sicknesses will create too much of a hassle. Regardless, something is not true/canon just because you rank higher and can ban people who disagree. The chances of everyone suddenly deciding their character has brain cancer or MRSA or something is slim, and if it did happen the healing rp would be so short it really wouldn't be necessary. It may very well be true that a wizard has never died of cancer (but I highly doubt it, as some people are just very stubborn and/or want to die), but we don't know if it is, and if it were that would not mean death by cancer was not impossible--just that no wizard has ever let it get far enough.

I would go to Carn/CK/Jaye, but Carn and Jaye have made it disturbingly obvious I should shut up, and I already presented my evidence to Ck and she sicced Jaye on me, so. Also, I trust your judgement and you tend to make very informed decisions, so if you agree with them and I have just missed something somehow, you'll probably just point it out and then I'll feel like an idiot.

Thank you for your time; I know this is a little long.

Second Task, First Round Complete!
The first round of the Second Task is complete. The duels can be found here. The winners of each duel automatically get five points-- so you are giving up to five points to the losers (Aleksander, Rafael and Wesley) for creativity, effectiveness and display of skill.

The second round of duels will be finished by Friday, and you can post scores for those duels over the weekend! <font face="Harrington" size="5"><font color= "#199EBF">This <font color="#00B8E6">above <font color="#00CCFF"> all <font color= "#00E6E6">else... <font color="#00FFFF">to <font color="#80FFFF"> thine <font color="#99FFD6"> own <font color="#00FF99"> self <font color="#80FF80"> be <font color="#00FF00"> true. 02:35, June 8, 2016 (UTC)


 * The second round of duels has been completed.

That was a very interesting article. I didn't even know it was such an issue because I intentionally avoid social media. Good info. <font face="cursive" size="3" color="#104E8B" >Bond_em7 (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 12:43, June 10, 2016 (UTC)

Judging!
The final task is over! The third task had the challengers facing three different obstacles: a hippogriff, Blast-Ended Skrewts, and a dementor.

This challenge is being scored the same way the first one was-- a score out of 10, with points for creativity, effectiveness, and display of skills. The score is for the challenge as a whole, we aren't awarding 10 points/room. It's just one score out of ten for the entire Task.

The scores can be posted on the scoring section of the Third Task page. Please post them by midnight, UTC on June 26.

Thank you so much for judging-- you've helped the tournament to be a great success! <font face="Harrington" size="5"><font color= "#199EBF">This <font color="#00B8E6">above <font color="#00CCFF"> all <font color= "#00E6E6">else... <font color="#00FFFF">to <font color="#80FFFF"> thine <font color="#99FFD6"> own <font color="#00FF99"> self <font color="#80FF80"> be <font color="#00FF00"> true. 04:58, June 25, 2016 (UTC)

Hello! If you could clear out your class page(s), that would be greatly appreciated by the OOC Team. Naturally, this would include resetting points. Thank you! :D

Trolls out of Control
I've tried my best and can't figure out how to get The Hmm Cafe back. Trolls have gone rampant on the poor page. Red reverted it the first time, but I don't know how she did it, and I'm fairly certain she's busy/asleep. I figured we might have a better shot with you?

That was a fandom thng I was thinking about.

Anyways. Hi! I'm back! I deleted all my previous characters, so fresh start too.

I missed you!

I was happy with how it went, too.

Hi Jiskran! Sorry I was gone for a while, my mom wouldn't let me use her computer. But anyway, I wanted to say I finally posted on Ollivanders with Edward. It's a bit of the way down there now. Thanks! (and let me know when you post if you could please, I'm worried I might forget)

At long last, I've finally regained access to a computer. Sorry for taking so so long! Thanks, and I posted. Have a good one. 01:06, July 17, 2016 (UTC)

Attaways

Heyo
I was wondering if you could take a look at the misnistry applications. >.< If you're busy sorty for bothering you.

Owl

 * Poor Sarah. I didn't realize Juliya died.  :P  I am glad to see you on here and editing though.  It's been a while.  I don't know if it's temporary or not, but I wanted ou to know your presence was noticed and made me smile. <font face="cursive" size="3" color="#104E8B" >Bond_em7  (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 23:33, August 30, 2016 (UTC)

Juliya is not dead - they are 'estranged', but I'm still working through the details in my head. That's why I wasn't ready to go into details. A


 * Fair enough. Melinda will be going through something similar this summer, if misery needs company.  Princess will be an adult and they'll be ready to go their separate ways as it were...which is what the letter about preludes.  Melinda won't really be ready in her own mind and it will hurt horribly but...they'll both be adults and that's how unicorns get when they become adults. <font face="cursive" size="3" color="#104E8B" >Bond_em7  (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 13:10, August 31, 2016 (UTC)

Oriol's Appreciation
I was hoping there would be some sort of GM resolution in Herbology sometime soon. Since there has not been one, and the weekend is upon us, I wanted to thank you. And I thought I should tell you how much Oriol appreciates Ari intervening, and becoming his personal superheroine by saving him from possible death. (I know it is not likely he would have died in class, however he does not know that.)
 * - Hecate Grimm (Hex Me) 06:42, September 3, 2016 (UTC)

Oriol is sort of a reckless idiot. He would clearly lead a longer existence with someone like her around. After Herbology, which he happens to be terrible at (a coincidence I cannot love enough), he would be LUCKY if she ever graced him with her presence. P.S. I am a student of Capoeira, but I also practice jiu-jitsu (Brazilian) and kickboxing. Big MMA fan, clearly.

Valerie KC
So it just occurred to me, it would booth be fun and she would be curious about her mother... Val might be one of those people that investigate things he knows she's not supposed to...

Much like her mother.

So she would probably know she worked at the ministry from her file at lil bundles, and she'd know Draco is the current minister of magic.... Curiosity would get the better of her.

Care to do an RP?

01:53, September 4, 2016 (UTC) I look forwards to it! :)

http://dumbledoresarmyroleplay.wikia.com/wiki/The_Three_Broomsticks#Val_and_Draco I hope this place is ok

02:38, September 4, 2016 (UTC)

I was gonna say the truth - She killed someone and is in Azkaban for it- But then i realised this is a ten year old girl so.... go with what you think is best.

16:46, September 5, 2016 (UTC)

Plotting
I have an interesting idea for a plot. If you have time tonight, we could discuss it in chat?

Keeping tabs and dropping names
I'm starting to get the feeling he's either a little more worried about her than I originally thought, or he sees a future ally in her.... or enemy. I guess we'll see.

Whenever she DOES drop his name, if she ever does, I'll make sure you know :) 20:51, September 6, 2016 (UTC)

Long time no see!
How've you been? I noticed you fixed a typo on one of my char's pages XD thank you.

22:47, September 10, 2016 (UTC)

Saved
I want to start this owl off by asking; Do you know I appreciate you, and the way your brain works? I would think you know that after how many times I asked, occasionally, and nicely might I add begged for you to write sorting hat quotes for me. I would continue to do it, but I hate to be a bother. However, this is not what my owl tonight is about. I am grateful for the ... interest (for lack of a better term)... Nolan has shown in Meadow. I do not know what I am supposed to do with that comment on her page. The Nuala in me gets it, the Meadow in me does not even remotely understand what is happening there. If you somehow get the impression I want you to remove it, which I do not. I have already saved it. So, if you should start to second guess yourself on that. I can cherish the thought always no matter your decision.

Apologies for the length of this owl.

Inklings and Impressions
I hope you do not come to regret telling me that I can get a quote from you anytime. I think you might have said it before. It was so long ago who can remember. c: Now though, you have SO much to catch up on. I joke, but I am also a little bit serious. I found the quotes both confusing, and overwhelming at times. That was what I loved the most about them, it felt authentic. J. K. Rowling would approve. The Hat would or should speak to the students exactly as you did. In riddles, if that makes sense, that could be deciphered if one only gave those words the opportunity to sink in. In my mind, it should more often than not be hard for a Hogwarts candidate to understand the majority of what the Hat said other than those clear opinion e.g. the house they end up in. You kind soul. When I said "interest in Meadow" I did not mean of the romantic variety. Thank you for the clarification though. I knew it was curiosity, the itchiness of it I was unaware of. I think, I could be wrong, but I do believe you have hinted at it in class before. I have trouble understanding Nolan so maybe he was "thinking" about something else entirely. I suppose what I meant to ask in all the words I keep writing was did you intend for that to become an RP? Or were you simply trying to flatter me with attention one of my favorite characters? :D

P.S. I sensed that ... curiosity... I suppose we can label that as well from Ner. That mention of the "dark brother" in Herbology caught my eye immediately. Well done!


 * - Hecate Grimm (Hex Me) 09:20, September 13, 2016 (UTC)

The List
 * Oriol Garza
 * Wren van Heemstra
 * Clair Voyemant
 * Nuala McDermot
 * Brianna Richards
 * Finnbarr Nevin

Please do not feel obligated to post the quote on the pages. That is an extra step I do not expect you to take. You can just owl them back to me when ever the words find you, or the time does.

Thank you again.

A thought...
Does the Imperius curse only control voluntary functions or could it also alter subconscious and/involuntary functions (such such as mannerisms and heartbeat)?

11:03, September 15, 2016 (UTC)

As far as I'm aware, the Imperius does not affect autonomic systems, although a subject could, I imagine, be instructed to 'actively' lower their heart rate, to the best of their ability. A

Dear Jiskran,

I apologize for bothering you and if I sound needy, but my character, Theomere Halbert, has answered a question Ollivander's posed a while ago. I just wished to bring it to your attention that he had answered it. I don't want you to think of me as needy, it's just been a couple months. Thank you for your time and what you do.

Thank you,

What do you want on your cornflakes?
Although there were a few things in that Red Dwarf clip I failed to understand, smeg for example. It took 30 seconds to start laughing. The "words that end in ible" got me. And the wine. So much wine! Or should I say whine. c: As I watch it again, for the... I have lost count of how many times, it starts to sound like something from Oriol's future. Coincidence? I think not.

I know this is a pretty late reply. I apologize. I decided to leave you a comment about the video, and also thank you for that last few Hat quotes you wrote for me. I could never choose a favorite, but for the most recent round I have say that Finnbar Nevin's is the new top of my list. I was also hoping you would comply with my request for just one more. For Enzo? This is the last one for this month. I swear. At least until November? I think.

P.S. I have not got much time. I look forward to seeing how the Hat reacts to Enzo desperately wanting be in Hufflepuff with Lina. (I love that he is a Slytherin Hatstall.) I adored that video, thank you. That tag team needed time to grow on me, in truth. I cannot hear or see them without smiling regrettably. Enzo Amore does this chicken dance. It forces me to fight a smile :D I disapprove of them teaching millions and millions of fans to spell incorrectly. Soft is spelled s-o-f-t. *sigh*

Thanks again, must run!

Hi-lo
I saw your sorting hat quotes and kind of loved them. If it's not too much trouble could I have one for these three nerds? If it's a bunch of trouble, don't worry. ^.^

With the end of term...

Happy to :) Didn't really get the chance on the last one, since, as far as I can tell, NAP changed the Roster before submitting the char on the Registration. I'll definitely do my best to keep a regular eye on there. A


 * Nope, she just swapped Catty's inactive char for Fandom's even more inactive one. :P So, the registration still needs to be looked at. :) (Also... why'd you comment on your own talk page?) :P <font face="Segoe Script" size="4"><font color= "#990099">Love sought <font color="#ac00e6">is good, <font color="#b84dff">but giv'n <font color="#884dff"> unsought <font color="#6666ff"> is better.  02:40, September 28, 2016 (UTC)

No prob, NAP, thanks for clearing it up, and so that I have a record of what I was thinking on the topic at the time, CK. :) A

Hi!
Do you think we can talk in chat real quick? :)

Have you given the new designs any thought? :)

Answered. (:

Ministry Interview
Would you like to look at/interview Jenelle Mitchell-Anderson for the Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes (possibly Head) from the Ministry of Magic: Registration or would you like Ferlen to handle it? <font face="cursive" size="3" color="#104E8B" >Bond_em7 (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 17:05, September 28, 2016 (UTC)

Hey, Jisky?
You mind posting on Addison's section on Ollivander's when you get a chance? Thank you!

To commemortate her first year.....
I know I misspelled that one word.

ANYWAYS, I wanted a new quote for Val for her first year, but the one I gave her is too long.... Can you help me think of a new one? You helped with Jade's and it was really great, so I was hoping...

Keeping checks on the Orphan
PS, "Valerie.... Oh, well, it's Knight-Something" was a hilarious line.

I promised to keep you informed if she ever used his name.

Interview and Axolotls
Yeah, I've kind of gathered, but I think Jen is used to perfected responses. As for axolotls, I didn't plan on letting them get me, but the plan is to get one sometime this October. :D

I knew I could count on you! I love it :) Thank you! 18:12, September 29, 2016 (UTC)

Ayy!!
I believe it's your post on Jenelle/Draco. :D

Aleksander "The Great"
There is so much more I could say, but I am going to keep this fairly brief. Or at least as brief as I am able.

I feel there is no need to say I am huge fan of the Karelin Lift. Who in their right mind does not love a good suplex? Now we move on to the part where I am offended you would put a genuinely superior Olympic athlete (with one loss to his name) in the same sentence, let a lone a hypothetical match with a monstrous humanoid. For various reasons I am disgusted. Brock Lesnar is a brute, I believe I have said this before, but I will say it again. I feel he has no actual skill or talent. The best thing about him is his hype man Paul Heyman, and I dislike that man just as much if not more. What I will say about him that might be a positive is in regard to Brock back in his OVW days; If he could still pull off a Shooting Star Press then I would agree about him going up against Karelin.

Ollivander
Hey Jisk, sorry to bother you but I noticed you haven't really been posting on the backroom. I was wondering if you could post back on Wolfie and Mateo's wand finding? Again, sorry to bother you, and of course you don't necessarily have to.

13:08, October 7, 2016 (UTC)

None whatsoever
No offense was taken. I have a strong dislike for Brock Lesner, and Paul Heyman for associating with him. I do agree with you though, in their prime, Karelin v Lesnar may have been a good match up. At least I can admit to wanting to see who would win.

 * Just... go ahead, call me Frank. I did not even need that information to tell you how much I already like Karelin more than Lesnar. I also happened to watch his one loss to Rulon Gardner before any other video on him. Still, I love that guy!

I read over the blog. I'm not sure what it necessarily has to do with DARP, but nonetheless in my opinion it's pure politics. I'd fully and strongly advise that you don't post it.

Admin Team Meeting
Please don't forget the Admin Team Meeting will be at 12:00 in the afternoon pacific time, in chat, tomorrow the 22nd. :)

Hi!
Sorry, I realized I never got back to you. :/ The only one I have open now is History of Magic, and Eternal Sterek expressed interest in it, but if nothings done more with that, I'd love Marla to take it over, if that's ok :)

You are, and always have been, my dream.  I love you more than there are stars in the sky and fish in the sea.  00:42, October 27, 2016 (UTC)

Food
I don't know why they would be eating in there, and if it were my class, those cupcakes would be gone within seconds, but I think Elmira would leave each case up to the discretion of the teacher.

You are, and always have been, my dream.  I love you more than there are stars in the sky and fish in the sea.  17:38, October 27, 2016 (UTC)

Finally Friday
Heyo ^_^ I was wondering if you would post on this if you get the chance?

Also--and I do hope I haven't already asked you this--what are your thoughts on the effects of the Cruciatus curse? I mean, other spells can cause pain, too, so why is this one the unforgivable one? Are the effects purely physical, or does it also cause emotional/psychological pain? I wonder how it drove the Longbottoms insane. If the spell's effects are purely physical, was it just the excessive use of the spell that caused it or were other aspects of their torture significantly involved, if present? If the curse isn't just physical, how do the other effects manifest? Would they be similar to a boggart, finding what thoughts and memories hurt the target the most and bringing them back to the surface? Would it create its own scenarios for the person--or would it skip the middle man and just evoke emotional pain on its own?

Sorry for the lengthy ramble :P

11:18, October 28, 2016 (UTC)

Hi!
Do you think you can approve a character for me real quick? :) It's alright if not. Either way, thanks!

Hiya!
It's all good - Jaye discussed it with me, they just know each other. Thanks :)

As a regular user...
Who in the near future will be putting a character in for Sorting... and as someone who's frequented chat... and as someone who was on the admin team for a long time and hopes she isn't overstepping her bounds...

I'm noticing that with Jaye stepping down, that there are a number of Sorting forums (and subsequently people asking in chat) that are being forgotten. Until a Crat gets named... you and Oli are kind of it for Sorting team. I know you're a busy person.... but do you mind trying to take a look at the forums?

Hi c:
Hi Jisk! I'm back from watching the rugby game and should be available any time now :)

For the next hour or so I'll be afk sporadically because I'm getting dinner and such but after an hour or so I shouldn't be distracted.

RE: Ena's Wand
Honestly, because Ena tends to work in environments with distractions, I'd figure she'd like a wand which can match her more outgoing and volatile personality.

Wand RP Request
Hey Jisk, if you wouldn't mind RPing Mr. Ollivander for Rose, it would be appreciated. I've already decided her magical abilities are going to be weak due to some of the experiments Teresa performed on herself while pregnant.

Dear Jiskran,

My character is Theomere Halbert and I was going through the process of getting a wand. It must have got lost in all the posts because it is now archived. If you could respond to it and unarchived it I would be most grateful. Thank you for your time and an excellent job at what you do,

RE:
Okay... I'll take your word for it. Please, do the Admin Team a favor and change the status, even if you're going to add a quote later on down the road. Because if you don't, it looks like the user is RPing an unapproved character, which could be rather confusing. <span style="padding-left: 6px; padding-right: 6px; font-size: large; background-color: black; border: 2px solid white; "> "It's a glorious thing to be a Pirate King," Talk 14:19, November 13, 2016 (UTC)
 * I respect the amount of time, Bond has put into the wiki. I never said that I didn't. I was elected to an Admin position, which means the user base trusted me enough to enforce the rules on everyone Jisk. There aren't special exceptions for special people. I'm sorry if you feel that I haven't been around long enough to enforce the rules on Bond, but the userbase did.


 * On another note, I was just doing my job. Another user brought it to my attention that it seemed like Bond was RPing an unapproved character, and since it didn't seem like the issue had been addressed, I took it upon myself to handle it. I was well within my bounds and was respectful. Again, no user is an exception to the rules, no matter how much time they've spent on the wiki. <span style="padding-left: 6px; padding-right: 6px; font-size: large;

Resigning
Don't resign just over me. Carn's right...I got a bit overeager and as an admin he could tell me that and ask me not to do it again. If they'd banned me or something...then it could be an issue, but it was just a reminder I need to follow the rules.

Wand Question
So...I know with you stepping down, you'll be stepping down from Wand and Sorting duties. My question was for Rose did you already have something picked out...or should I go look through and pick her a wand on my own? I'm fine not finishing the RP, just trying to figure out if you had an idea that I can go off, or if I should (for once) just do my own work. :P <font face="cursive" size="3" color="#104E8B" >Bond_em7 (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 21:48, November 15, 2016 (UTC)

I'm planning to complete all the wand RPs I started before my resignation - ideas are percolating with regard to Rose. :) A

Wands
Hello, do you still own Ollivander? If so is it okay for me to post with Jazzy on the wand shop?

Rose
I think the search for magic suits her well, as that's what she's done her whole life. She also does prefer to avoid conflict, and loves peace. The only part that doesn't really fit is the concealment, as she's pretty open and honest about all things. So...overall I think it fits moderately well, and will work unless there's something that fits a better for her open honest nature. <font face="cursive" size="3" color="#104E8B" >Bond_em7 (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 22:12, November 16, 2016 (UTC)
