Welcome to Potter's Army

We have been a Harry Potter Roleplaying site since 2007. If you're an old member we hope you come check out the discord link provided below. And if you're looking for a new roleplaying site, well, we're a little inactive. But every once and a while nostalgia sets in and a few of our alumni members will revisit the old stomping grounds and post together. Remember to stay safe out there. And please feel free to drop a line whenever!

What’s Happening?
Since every few months or so a few of our old members get the inspiration to revisit their old stomping grounds we have decided to keep PA open as a place to revisit old threads and start new ones devoid of any serious overarching plot or setting. Take this time to start any of those really weird threads you never got to make with old friends and make them now! Just remember to come say hello in the chatbox below or in the discord. Links have been provided in the "Comings and Goings" forum as well as the welcome widget above.

Khaat was exhausted. She hadn't held her children yet. Not like that. Not like she had thought she might. She had pictured it differently, picture enough friendly faces that she might have savored the moment of their first breath along with them. Instead, their first breaths were terrifying for her, afraid theyd' cry, afraid James would hear them and they'd be caught. The thought of having to actually hide them in a hole in the ground under a rock was repulsive to her. And it left her physically and emotionally exhausted.

"Drink your tea," Marcus said to her, passing the mug to her. She figured he had used a wee bit of his slight of hand skills to perhaps slip another drop or two of calming potion into her cup. She didn't fight him, drinking a few more sips, yawning. She watched her father with Abbey.

Abbey used a simple hand signal with her grandfather, who picked up a storybook from the end table near his chair. He used a simple signal with her, and her eyes seemed to light up as she understood. He opened the book and laid it on the floor. Khaat liked watching her father do this sort of magic. These simple charms, all ones she remembered from her own childhood, were designed merely to delight a child. Nothing more. And now, he was so accomplished at them that he made them look ridiculously easy.

He made one easy, flowing motion with his hand, as if he were simply reaching into the book to snatch the story out of it, tossing the story up onto the ceiling. Abbey laughed in delight, tossing herself down on the floor to lay on the floor and simply look up. He tossed her the throw pillow from his chair and she put it behind her head, watching the illustrations from the book play out the story for her in a colorful, watercolor mime on the ceiling.

Marcus smiled, always enjoying how much like music the laugh of a child sounded like in his ears. He was satisfied with Khaat's tea consumption now and saw she was sleepy. He took the mug from her and saw Robert and the hand signal he made now.

"Hallie," Marcus said. "He'd like to talk to you. Michael will go with you to translate." Robert stood up and headed down the hallway to one of the doorways on the left, the door to Brian's office.

"It'll be fine," Michael Tremaine said to her. "He doesn't bite, and I'm just the messenger. This way." He motioned her come with him to follow Robert.

For a moment or two Hallie felt out of place, as though she were in some weird muggle television show where she knew the lives of the characters but they didn't know her. Robert was reading with Abbey, Khaat was resting and she was simply stood there then...

The minister wanted to talk to her? A private conversation away from the ears of Abbey? What would he say to her? Hallie guessed it could simply be a thank you but what if it was more? What is the minister had questions she didn't have the answers to? Hallie would look like an idiot, a blonde bimbo. Hopefully not.

'Okay.' Hallie replied before she went with Michael down the hallway, following the footsteps of Minister Lupin. Each footstep was a harsh thump of fear in her heart. The smiles in the family portraits on the wall didn't comfort her either. Alas they reached the door to Briann's office. Opening the door quietly Hallie slipped in behind the Minister.
