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.

Ruby knew in the eyes of the law she was a nobody until she married but she didn't care she just wanted Angus healthy again. As they left the office she breathed out and loekd at Edward " same here, I feel like I haven't eaten for a whole week" she told him. " Lets just get home please, I'd like to be with Angus" she told him and smiled " Im sorry for leaving it all to you I guess Im still numb alittle from everything thats happened." she told him.

Kaden sat reading the moniter numbers and noting them down as he waited and watched , this was his duty now. It was now Jess arrived and looked at him " hows the patiant?" she asked walking over and breathing out " I see Roberts tended him, good, keep at it." she told him and headed to the door " I'll have some food sent up for both of you, not that he'll eat any but maybe when he wakes he could try some broth." She left teh room and went to find Robert happy to see he got her package.

" Good you got it, it seems both Redfern and Finch have long disaplinary records, some oen slipped up giving them both jobs at St Mungos." she told him " Iv inishiated a hospital wide audit of people and backgrounds any with dubious backgrounds who can't show just cause will be terminated." she said sitting down and slipping off her shoes. " but for now alls quiet no other magor incidents ...so far." she said crossing her fingers.

"I agree. I'm sure Michael's making something wonderful, probably considerably better than anything we could get here, except for maybe at Sparks--maybe," Edward said. "If I can give you a little fatherly advice. Well, grandfatherly advice perhaps, you'll probably deal with things better if you keep yourself busy. Check in on him every five minutes if you have to, but get something to do that keeps your hands and your brain busy. Bake, knit, crochet, paint--something. I can't tell you how this is going to go for him, but I can promise you one thing. He isn't going to die in Robert's hands--not without Robert throwing absolutely every ounce of knowledge and skill and magical power he has to try to prevent it. If it gets that bad, he'll use magical life support spells and he'll notify us. The fact that he doesn't need life support is encouraging in itself. It tell me that he's improved enough that he's holding his own. And that certainly has to be better than where he surely was at St. Mungos. Surely there were some frightening moments at St. Mungos, but he's not that critical right now, so let's take the hope where we can find it, and let's use our energies to take care of Jess and Robert and Brian and Kaden and all the healers at the house that are going to be needed for awhile. We can clean and cook and take care of Abbey and the animals and that weird little bowtruckle. We can do anything that might otherwise take them from Angus. Let's pitch in and do our parts so they can stay with him. What do you say?"

"He's still holding his own," Robert told Jess. "He's not on any support spells, so that's improvement. He's very disoriented yet, but that's to be expected as critical as he is. Michael was going to make some beer cheese soup and some burgers for our meal and noon, so we won't have to cook. You might be interested in this, though. One potion instead of of about twelve. Tricky business to blend it, that. But it's worth a try, Edward and I thought." He handed her the bottle of new potion and the book with the formula of all the other potions that they had worked to blend together so it was one highly concentrated potion instead of bothering him with dose after dose of a dozen different ones. She might have an understanding of how difficult it had been to accomplish.

"Oh, Jess, do me a favor, please" Robert continued. "When you see Jack, send him up, please. I'm going to have to ask him to delegate some things around to other folks for a few days."

Ruby looked at Edward and nodded listening to him talk " I agree I have teh climbing wall and I could go for a run and as you said I could bake and I am only halfway threw that beastury Micahekl gave me." she said deciding he was right best to keep busy while Angus mended. " I think Michael was cooking tonight" she said " should be good" she now smiled at him.

Jess listened and nodded when Robert showed her the all in one potion she blew out air " wow, this will get things moving for sure, must have taken you ages to find the right doses" she said and looke at the instructions " I'll get this to the poshions makers at St Mungos they can make it in bulk and sitrabute it to the right departments." She saw the instructions and smiled " simple enough" whern he spoke of Jack she nodded and slipped her shoes back on to go find Jack who had just walked in and saw nobody in the kitchen.

"Jack Robert need to talk to you" she said as she then ported back to St Mungos potion lab. Jack walked to the kitchen and gave Fudge some food then headed to Roberts workshop and kncked on the door.

"You asked for me?" he said " and why is there nobody in the kitchen?" he stood looking at him and then sighed " okay what happened I can tell by the look on your face something happened while I was on patrol."

"Wait," Robert told Jess. "It isn't formulated for them. Y It's formulated for Angus's specific issues--the overdose of Supershock and the virus. You won't be able to use it at St. Mungo's. The chances of us having a patient that has both of those simultaneously like he does should be almost nil if our staff is doing its job. I don't think we need to bother taking some to St. Mungos, not of that, anyway. It was tricky business, though. I might send for Nigel to help me formulate a better remedy that we can use for the St Mungo's population. I'll try to send him a note.

"Michael should be in the kitchen--unless he's setting out food in the dining room. He was making lunch. He figured we would be hungry by noon. So if he's not in the kitchen, then I guess we'll all starve," Robert said. "Anyway, we've had a situation here. Long story short, Angus ran a couple errands for us to Diagon Alley this morning, and, being a good samaritan, he took an injured old woman to St. Mungos. Some moron saw that Angus has that stupid teal rash on his neck, forced him into treatment against his will, threatened to admit him against his will, and then gave him the wrong potion and a massive overdose--enough to kill over 240 people. Thank goodness Brian and Jess were there, and they worked like the devil to save his life. Obviously, we couldn't take the chance of any further incompetence, so we brought him home. I'm going to be treating him here just as if he were in the ICU unit at St. Mungos. His condition is critical. Needless to say, everyone's rattled. And, Angus isn't going to be doing anything until further notice.

"I need you to take charge of the outdoors operations. I offered Jess a promotion at St. Mungos, and I need to offer you a new position too. I'd like to create a new position here. For a lack of a better name at the moment, I'm calling it a Groundskeeper, but that really isn't an adequate name. I'm going to leave Angus in his position of taking care of the affairs at this place and my farm, but he isn't going to be doing the outdoors work for awhile. I'd like to promote you to take charge of the outdoors operations for here and for my farm both--the farming, the animals, the barns, the security, all of it. You'd report to Angus and to Brian and me. It would be taking a bit off of Angus's plate, but right now, I don't have a choice. It would, of course, include another pay raise and an increase in benefits. For now, I'll see if Simone and Michael can handle the operations inside for both places. I'm sure Ruby will pitch in, and I would include her in dealing with the inside operations, but I think she's a little preoccupied with Angus at the moment. Kate can take care of the inside of our house over at the farm like she's always done. Give it some thought, and then let me know if you're interested in this new job."

Jess paused and walked back to Robert " sorry long day should have thought of that" she said placing the bottle down on the table she did notice Michael in the dinning room. " hes in the dinning room laying the table." she said Jack listened and nodded " basicaly what I do now but with a title, don't worry its all covered " he said smiling " I hope he gets better quickly." 

Jess was glad not to have to return to St Mungos that night and so changed into something comfortable. Ruby looked at Edward and sighed " well I for one am looking forward to trying this beer soup , never had it before" she said loopong her arm threw his so they could head back to Roberts farm. 

As soon as they arrived she went to see Angus then headed to the gym to work out making one of the walls a climbing wall with safty mats on the floor so she could practice her climbing skills. She fell twice but on the third she made it half way up falling onto the soft mats she didn't hurt her self but decided climbing was done for the day and she showered and dressed in comfortable clothes to sit in the living room to read.

Michael called everyone for lunch. He had a large tureen of cheese soup, and some thick, hearty cheeseburgers on pretzel buns. He had taken the leftover berries and yogurt from breakfast, sweetened it a bit and turned it into a mixed berry frozen yogurt for a quick dessert.

Michael made a tray for Robert and Kaden and added one more mug of soup for Angus, and then sent it upstairs. Kate brought Abbey down for lunch. She had given Abbey a bath, and Abbey was dressed in a pair of leggings and a tunic top just to be comfortable.

As they were all sitting down to eat, just as the clock was striking 12 noon, Khaat and Marcus came home, like Robert had asked Khaat to do.

"God, that smells good," Marcus said, feeling very hungry.

"Come tuck in. There's plenty," Michael said.

"I'm sure we will. We're going to go check to see what Robert had in mind and then we'll be back--because if we don't, I'm going to be gnawing on the furniture," Marcus told him. They went upstairs, and Robert and Khaat met about Redfern and Finch and the lawsuit Edward was mounting, along with Angus's condition. Khaat had already decided to fire Redfern and Finch, but Robert didn't want her to have to deal with the confrontation. Robert wanted to deal with it himself. He updated Khaat on the change of positions for Jack and Jess, and she approved completely.

Robert woke Angus, and, with incredible patience, he fed him the cheese soup. By the time Angus could drink no more Robert had determined Angus had had almost six ounces of soup. He felt Angus had done far better than he had hoped he might.

"Robert," Angus said, as Robert laid him back on the pillows. "Truth. How bad is it?"

"Truth," Robert said in a very paternal tone, "you had one hell of an ordeal. I don't suggest you repeat it. You were extremely critical for awhile, but it is definitely better. You're not in the same sort of danger you were earlier."

"Where am I? I can't think straight."

"I know. Your head isn't going to completely clear for a bit yet because you had a massive amount of drugs. We'll just keep reminding you til it makes sense. You're home, at Brian's in your own room. You're safe."

"The box. Give Ru the box," he said.

"I'll give her the box," he told Angus and then he simply sat and soothed Angus for a moment or two before Angus fell back to sleep. Then he knew he had to keep his word to Angus. He got out the box from the nightstand drawer and took it downstairs.

"Angus has been very specific. He wanted me to give this to you," Robert said. "And for whatever it means, he said I am to be sure not to let you think he doesn't mean it. I have no idea what he means, but he said you would know."

Ruby was sat looking at her book reading it over nd over, she'd seen Khaat and arcus return and go straight to Robert so she knew they all knew now, Jack was sending out notes to other grounds men on what they should do and Jess was co ordinating with nurses at St mungos A&E department to keep it running. She was just sat that was until Robert walked over with a small box. she looke at him then took the box and opened it her eyes went wide. She as about to say she would wait till he was better but at Roberts words she showed him it. " its beautiful" she said closing it she headed up to see Angus knowing he would be sleeping again.

Finding him doing just that she took out the ring and slipped it on her finger. " I love you and I love the ring" she said softly into his ear as she lent down and kissed him gently " please get stronger so you can ask me properly, but for now , yes" she said softly before moving from the room and back down to the dinning room to eat now feeling happier with something positive to look forward to. She went to Edward and spoke " did you know?" she asked smiling at him.

"I think I understand what he meant now by wanting me to make sure that you didn't think he didn't mean it," Robert smiled. "Maybe he just needed to know that you already know he means it. You've known for a long time how he feels."

"More or less," Edward said to her when Ruby asked him if he knew "He told me what he wanted. He told me he wanted a star, and he didn't want a little ring. He wanted a ring that was certainly larger than normal but Michael and I talked him out of having one made that was so big that it was going to be a hindrance for you to wear every day. I gave him the name of a couple good jewelers, but I think Michael actually went with him. You have to admit, there probably isn't anybody here that knows diamonds better than Michael. I can assure you that there isn't going to be another like it because he had that one especially made for you. It was already on order before they went to Romania. I think that it was especially important today for him to know he'd given it to you."

As he spoke a message came by owl for him. He took the envelope and opened it and read it. It made him angry. He took a breath and then he looked up at Ruby.

"It's from our lawyer. They've started some background checks on Redfern, and they found something on their very first look. Guess who Kyle Redfern worked for just before he got a job as a healer at St. Mungos. He joined St. Mungo's staff 3 weeks ago. And before that, his boss was Reginald John Tyler--your father."

Ruby smiled and looked at the ring now happy " yeah I have and he knows I feel the same too." she chuckled at Edward " yeah a cat burgler would know the best places to go." she said and looked over at Michael " thank you Michael" she said and showed him the ring smiling. But it didn't last long as Edward spoke of the letter hed just got. She listened then sat down as he told her Redfern had worked for her father before St Mungos. " why, why does he insist on interfearing in my life." she said taking deep breaths to calm herself ." alright we need to talk to them." she said and looked at Robert , I need to find out if it was my father or just some sick cosmic joke." she hoped Robert would understand her need to know.



Sitting down she calmed herself " if they had anything to do with this..i want them to go down, and down hard" she said " no one harms my family or fiance and gets away with it." she looked at Edward " Im proud to be coming a donahugh." she told him befe she finished he soup and bread " we should talk to the lawyer once we have proof, but right now Im hangry, hungry angry."

"We aren't going to do anything until we know more," Robert said to Ruby firmly. "We need to know if it stops with him or if it goes deeper. If it stops with him, then, Edward, I will remove my hands entirely from it and let you do as you see fit."

"I'd be happy to," Edward said, trying to reel in his rage.

"If it doesn't stop with him, then I want the whole nasty chain," Robert said.

"If there's a chain, we'll have them," Michael said. "Every single disgusting link."

"Absolutely," Brian agreed. "I think I'm going to do a backgrounds check through some of our own sources on both your mother and your father. Let's find out what they've been up to, shall we?"

"Don't leave any stone unturned," Robert told him.

"Ruby, I'm going to have to go to Paris to access some of our best contacts at digging for the darker background information. Want to go meet a couple informants this afternoon with me? After all, this does involve your family. Robert, is Angus stable enough for her to go?"

"For now, yes," Robert said. "Michael sent me up an mug of soup for Angus to try, and he drank three fourths of a cup. A good, full six ounces. I didn't expect him to do nearly that well. I sent Nigel an owl about the virus and about Angus. Nigel is coming this afternoon to lend a hand for a day or two or however long we need him. It'll be good to have someone of his caliber here for now to lend a hand with Angus and to help with the virus. So, yes, Ruby, if you want to go with Brian, go ahead. If we need either of you, we'll page you with the medallions."
