welcome to the new age

ellamy, 22. Third year history student at the University of Dysperia, minoring in archery. If you need help with history, or you've run out of films to watch, dorm 1 is where you'll find me. Just don't listen to a word Jamie says. About anything.

... Nope sorry, I can't see that happening. We made a pact remember - best friends until we die, followed by haunting each other in the afterlife. I'm looking forward to that.

Also Olive you do realise Christmas was last month? Or have we somehow travelled back in time?

[imagineflynn]

Mmmm, not really a secret, sorry.

Bella, we’ve been friends for three years, of course I know who Stan Lee is. S’the one with the really cool mustache, right? And Thor’s the one based on Norse mythology?

You know I can’t give my opinion on whether or not it was a good decision until I’ve heard the price - which was ludicrously high, I’m sure.

[bellamygrayson]

I can pretend, can't I?

Two out of two right, well done. I'm glad to see I've done my job properly. And actually I know a friend who knows someone who was selling it so they got it at a discount price for me. I mean, £100 isn't that bad, right? It's a collector's item!

[tate-skander]

I just assume that everyone has read or at least watched Harry Potter.

Those are pretty much all of my nights, except add being on my computer to that.

That’d be awesome. I could get Nick and probably Alice to come along.

[bellamygrayson]

You'd think they'd be like finding horcruxes those people who haven't done either, but unfortunately you have people like my brother who flat out refuse to. They don't know what they're missing out on.

Definitely invite them! I'm in dorm 1, so that's probably where it'll be held. My dorm-mates won't mind. 

I'm Bellamy by the way, probably should have introduced myself sooner. History nerd, and fan of all things geek. 

[laraleftwichs-deactivated201710]

I’m probably with you on that one. It’s Quidditch, I have to try no matter what. Chocolate frogs look like they’d be fun to try, but Bertie Botts beans don’t. 

I feel as though I’m more kind than clever, so probably Hufflepuff. How about you?

[bellamygrayson]

I think I'd want to try them for the novelty... although have you ever tried the ones from the Harry Potter Tour? I got a vomit one once and I never wanted to go near them again. 

I've always seen myself as a Gryffindor personally, although I do love the Slytherin colours. Maybe I'd just befriend a Slytherin and "borrow" their jumpers or something, that could work.

[laraleftwichs-deactivated201710]

They’re extremely late, aren’t they? I would’ve so loved going to Hogwarts. I’d imagine my favourite class being Transfigurations.

[bellamygrayson]

Yeah, me too. If anything, I'd just love to try my hand at quidditch. I mean, I'd probably be rubbish, but it looks so much fun! And I wouldn't mind trying some of the wizard sweets either...

What house do you think you'd be sorted into?

[lionbaker-deactivated20160501]

Most people use the internet and holograms nowadays, maybe that’s caused the Royal Mail to loose some of its funding?

What package are you expecting? Books or something?

[bellamygrayson]

I think they're privatised now, so I'm not sure what sort of funding they're getting... it's all very confusing. Either way, they're still as unreliable as ever. 

Sort of... Comics. Normally I just buy digital copies of textbooks and things, but comics I like to actually have a physical copy of.

Plus this edition I found is signed by Stan Lee himself. You can't get much better than that, and it's so worth paying the extra money for.

[imagineflynn]

Because you’re a downright masochist with a paperback fetish?

What did you order this time?

[bellamygrayson]

Shhhh, that's supposed to be a secret! 

Thor: God of Thunder, volume one. Flynn, it's an original copy signed by Stan Lee. You can't tell me that wasn't a good decision. 

... wait, please tell me you know who Stan Lee is. 

[tate-skander]

People who don’t know about Harry Potter haven’t experienced life. Just like those who never wear odd socks or stay up until 3 in the morning eating ice-cream and watching a movie.

[bellamygrayson]

You'd be surprised at the amount of uneducated muggles at this university.

Ice cream, films, procrastination from essays... those are my favourite nights. I feel like a Harry Potter marathon is in order sometime soon. Maybe I could put posters up, get a group together or something. It's been far too long since I've watched them.

Do you fancy it?

[tate-skander]

Is that why it’s the best day of the week?

[bellamygrayson]

No post is definitely a bad thing, although it's a fine day when you're not expecting a parcel. 

And... hold on... did every one suddenly brush up on Harry Potter overnight?

Where have you been these past three years? My brother thinks I'm the only one who's even heard of the series.

[lionbaker-deactivated20160501]

Oh, are you waiting for a letter or a package? Can’t trust the post too much this season, people are still sending christmas gifts.

[bellamygrayson]

Package. And when can you ever trust them? You'd have thought by now Royal Mail would have figured out ways to be more reliable, but even with nearly 700 years of experience they're still getting it wrong.

[imagineflynn]

Waiting for something, Bella?

[bellamygrayson]

You know you asked me once why I bother getting physical copies of comics instead of an instant download... well, it's times like this I begin to ask myself the same question.

Why do I do this to myself, Flynn?

[laraleftwichs-deactivated201710]

Careful on what you say, your mailbox might just flood with a ton of letters. There could even be Owls waiting outside your dorm.

[bellamygrayson]

That's definitely more reason to keep saying it!

11 years late, mind you, but I'm sure I can find it in my heart to forgive them. 

[bellamygrayson]

No post on Sundays... brilliant.
