groovekinnon:

“In the the kitchen with your wife’s cooking, if you’re man enough to wake up and go get it.”

Can you uh, can you let me put clothes on?

[aurorlongbottomridingadinosaur]

groovekinnon:

“Five and fifty all at the same time.”

Where’s my present?

Caradoc couldn’t get his grip on the finer details of Frank’s speech, but he was too tired to try. The weekend had been difficult, and he knew it was only going to get worse. He surrendered with a sigh.

“Whatever you have to do to stop this.”

Come back if you need to. Please, anytime.

groovekinnon:

“Not long enough.”

I’m-- 

Quite basically five. That isn’t giving me much. 

[aurorlongbottomridingadinosaur]

caradocdearborns:

“So let’s.”

All I’m saying is it’s going to have to get public for me. 

[aurorlongbottomridingadinosaur]

caradocdearborns:

“That we need to change, yes, but with you talking out of your ass about this, that, and the other with no real explanation but some vague name dropping—”

“What have you got up your sleeve, Frank?”

All I want is the option to fight fire with fire.

groovekinnon:

“It’s not the nostalgia, it’s the old man thing. You have to be young for a wee bit at least, or you won’t have much to be nostalgic about later, yeah?”

I was. 

[aurorlongbottomridingadinosaur]

caradocdearborns:

“I’m making you nervous?”

How am I making you nervous? You only just said you agreed with me. 

[aurorlongbottomridingadinosaur]

groovekinnon:

“You make me sad sometimes.”

Nostalgia is disgusting, I know.

[aurorlongbottomridingadinosaur]

groovekinnon:

“Don’t remind me.”

I don’t think I’ve slept this late in that long. 

[aurorlongbottomridingadinosaur]

caradocdearborns:

Please don’t look at me that way, it makes me nervous.

[aurorlongbottomridingadinosaur]

caradocdearborns:

“You’re already an Auror. What more can you do?”

I can risk losing the trust of people who are already wary of the Ministry.

I’m not saying it isn’t an easy choice. 

[aurorlongbottomridingadinosaur]

groovekinnon:

“But it’s your golden year, bampot.”

It’s been a long time since we’ve seen one of those, hmm? 

[aurorlongbottomridingadinosaur]

groovekinnon:

“On forgetting, or remembering?”

Forgetting.

IT ME. 

Morning or night person? Morning. I’m up at 6:30 to 7 AM whether I’d like to be or not, though I used to be a super late night person and sometimes still can be. I don’t need a whole lot of sleep. But we got old one day awhile back and late nights started to feel lonely, and then I got a job that wasn’t freelance and then my girls started school and then I started falling asleep through films and books like a Frank Longbottom and couldn’t even handle staying up to whine about my nights being lonely. Favorite pizza topping?

Kidding. All pizza, all beef, all pepperoni, all red onion. 

Your zodiac sign? Sagittarius. It’s suited me well.

Your Hogwarts house? Once upon a time, I was (without any doubt) a Ravenclaw. Every single Pottermore quiz I’ve ever taken put me there, every piece of merchandise I’ve ever bought myself is Ravenclaw. But these days, after years and years and a million changes, I don’t feel like I particularly fit anywhere at Hogwarts. Maybe I fit everywhere. Haven’t figured it out yet. No idea. I can tell you though that I’m a Thunderbird, up and down and backward and forward and sideways and drunk. 

Do you like a lot of ice in your drinks or a little? Enough to cool it off, a lot if it’s the soft pebble ice.

What song is the one song you know every word to without thinking about it? Television - Jack’s Mannequin. First song that popped into my head.  Too hot or too cold? Too cold. I live in a place where it’s in the 110′s in the summer and being this much closer to the sun at elevation, it’s ridiculous. It’s several -10′s in the winter. I’ll take 70 and deal with anything below. You can always put more clothes on, but you can’t always take more off. 

If you had to pick a fictional universe to live in, other than Harry Potter, what would you pick? I WANNA BE A POWER RANGER TOO

Coffee or Tea? Coffee. Jamaican, sweet italian creme, no sugar. Red fruity teas. How about an Ocean Water? 

Cold Pizza for Breakfast or Breakfast for Dinner? Breakfast for dinner. 

What’s your aesthetic? (have fun with this, be it just answering a picspam, a pinterest board go nuts)

Well, that was fun. If you’re still interested, here’s my about me tag. If you’re that bored, here’s Beth’s about Dani tag, which is better than my tag.  And if you’re crazy, here’s the pinterest I really need to redo. 

If you encountered a boggart what form would it take? I’d like to know that one myself. 

What Hogwarts subject do you think you’d excel at? I’d like to say Astronomy, I know it’d be Herbology.  Butterbeer or Firewhiskey? Fireball whiskey. Whisky. Canadian. 

With which fictional character do you feel you most identify? Oh man. Yzma. 

With which character from War is Kind do you feel most identify? Out of my characters I’d say that out of all of them in WIK I’m most like Bertie, but there’s a little bit of me in every character I play. I’m also a lot like Gawain. Like, a lot like Gawain. I’ve got a lot of Travers in me, too. Fuck. 

Don’t tell anyone that.

groovekinnon:

When Marlene poked her head through Frank and Alice’s bedroom door at five-thirty on Sunday morning, she was surprised to find that Frank was still in bed. How a man who routinely woke up at four-thirty every morning, and whose wife was cooking him a luxurious breakfast in the other room that could be smelt all the way from China, could still be fast asleep, was beside even her, a girl who had known said man for the past twenty-three years.

No, make that twenty-four.

Once she had caught the breath she’d lost in the run, pounce, and tackle, and had made sure that Frank was finally awake, she spoke. “You forgot your own birthday, didn’t you?”

I had planned-- on it.

buckoff-potter:

“Don’t go getting all soppy.”

“I’m not, I just— I’m the odd man out now. I’ll be the fifth wheel, if you let me.”

You say that like Alice and Lily didn’t make the fourth and fifth. Poor girls.
