Potter’s Army is a roleplaying site that’s been alive and active for nearly eight years now. The plot is set in an Alternate Universe where Lord Voldemort is dead, but Harry Potter went missing and is presumed dead as well. The factions continue to fight, Hogwarts educates the next generation of witches and wizards, and the Ministry of Magic does its best to hold everything together.
Beginners are sure to find a welcoming and helpful community, and all levels of writers are accepted and encouraged to join. PA is a brilliant place to experience and explore the Harry Potter universe with canon and original characters of your own.
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.
Varod sighed and pulled a chair next to Christy. Not really liking parties, he looked at her. "I'm proud of you, I'd have expected you to kill everyone here. You really are changing-and a lot," he told her, smiling. "You look bored, though. Anyway, anything new lately?" Trying to act like he didn't love her because he knew there were Col around, he leaned back and didn't take her hand like he normally would.
Matt pulled out his wand and magically put the song in Nikki's Mind. It was a simple spell, it was an old Lestrange spell. Only we can know it, Emmy will have to learn it soon. Well its a simple song haha, the music video is on there. Also I put the dance in your head. he winked and started the music.I'm Mark, your Joanne okay.he said.
Lyrics: TANGO: MAUREEN
(The lot. JOANNE is reexamining the cable connections for the umpteenth time.)
MARK And so into the abyss...The lot. Where a small stage is partially set up.
JOANNE (playing with some wires) "Line in"... I went to Harvard for this?
MARK Close on Mark's nose dive.
JOANNE "Line out"...
MARK Will he get out of here alive...?
(JOANNE notices MARK approaching.)
JOANNE Mark?
MARK Hi.
JOANNE I told her not to call you
MARK That's Maureen But can I help since I'm here
JOANNE I hired an engineer ...
MARK Great! Well, nice to have met you
JOANNE Wait! She's three hours late The samples won't delay But the cable --
MARK There's another way Say something -- anything
JOANNE (into the mike) Test -- one, two three --
MARK Anything but that
JOANNE This is weird
MARK It's weird
JOANNE Very weird
MARK F***' weird
JOANNE I'm so mad That I don't know what to do Fighting with microphones Freezing down to my bones And to top it all off I'm with you
MARK Feel like going insane? Got a fire in your brain? And you're thinking of drinking gasoline?
JOANNE As a matter of fact --
MARK Honey, I know this act It's called the 'Tango Maureen' The Tango Maureen It's a dark, dizzy merry-go-round As she keeps you dangling
JOANNE You're wrong
MARK Your heart she is mangling
JOANNE It's different with me
MARK And you toss and you turn 'Cause her cold eyes can burn Yet you yearn and you churn and rebound
JOANNE I think I know what you mean
BOTH The Tango Maureen
MARK Has she ever pouted her lips And called you 'Pookie'
JOANNE Never
MARK Have you ever doubted a kiss or two?
JOANNE This is spooky Did you swoon when she walked through the door?
MARK Every time -- so be cautious
JOANNE Did she moon over other boys --?
MARK More than moon --
JOANNE I'm getting nauseous (They begin to dance, with MARK leading.)
MARK Where'd you learn to tango?
JOANNE With the French Ambassador's daughter in her dorm room at Miss Porter's. And you?
MARK With Nanette Himmelfarb. The Rabbi's daughter at the Scarsdale Jewish Community Center.
(They switch, and JOANNE leads.)
It's hard to do this backwards.
JOANNE You should try it in heels! She cheated
MARK She cheated
JOANNE Maureen cheated
MARK F***' cheated
JOANNE I'm defeated I should give up right now
MARK Gotta look on the bright side With all of your might
JOANNE I'd fall for her still anyhow
BOTH When you're dancing her dance You don't stand a chance Her grip of romance Make you fall
MARK So you think, 'Might as well'
JOANNE "Dance a tango to hell"
BOTH 'At least I'll have tangoed at all' The Tango Maureen Gotta dance till your diva is through You pretend to believe her Cause in the end -- you can't leave her But the end it will come Still you have to play dumb Till you're glum and you bum And turn blue
MARK Why do we love when she's mean?
JOANNE And she can be so obscene
MARK Try the mike
JOANNE My Maureen (reverb: een, een, een...)
MARK Patched
JOANNE Thanks
MARK You know -- I feel great now!
JOANNE I feel lousy (The pay phone rings. MARK hands it to JOANNE.) Honey, we're... (pause) Pookie?! You never call me Pookie... Forget it, we're patched.
