Alice in Wonderland

Alice Minerva Longbottom 23 Years of Age Graduated Gryffindor An Auror for the Ministry of Magic Allegiance: Rebels (Leader)

[anaandhercactus]

Thanks Merlin

[anaandhercactus]

I don’t know… It’s a talent?

[readallabout-alice]

A talent that I need to possess! Especially when I work at the Ministry... We're supposed to be really serious but I'm the kind who would much rather be smiling and having fun! 

[auror-aidrik]

I case you were wondering...

[auror-aidrik]

Thanks Alice. You’re going to blow up my ego, but thank you. [He grinned.] Hm. That’s probably a good call. I mean, you wouldn’t want to break up, that would suck if you were together for a really long time. 

Did your parents get married young? Or were they older when they got married? because my parents were pretty young and they’re still going strong, but it seems different by the couple.

[readallabout-alice]

Would you rather me tear you down with a bunch of false information? Alright, well, you're absolutely hideous. I can't bear the sight of your face. *She laughed* That's true. And imagine if you had kids and everything? It would screw up more than just your life.

They got married only a couple years after Hogwarts. So yeah, I'd consider them to be married young. But you're right. It really depends on the couple. I would just rather not take any chances.

[anaandhercactus]

Thanks Merlin

[anaandhercactus]

*Hugo started to laugh* Merlin, I’m sorry, I can’t keep a straight face anymore.

[readallabout-alice]

I was wondering how you lasted so long! I've been smiling ever since we started talking! 

[theweasleywerewolf]

Oh, hey!

[theweasleywerewolf]

Those are terrible, I’ll admit… But, the way I see, you can always choose between getting back to reality defeated or determined to make it better.

[readallabout-alice]

You're absolutely right. And I always try getting back to reality determined, there's no point in going through life feeling like the world's defeated you. Especially not when we're so young.

[anaandhercactus]

Thanks Merlin

[anaandhercactus]

I’m so sorry, Alice. I think… It’s too late for us.

[readallabout-alice]

*Alice wiped away a fake tear* Then we're goners, Hugo. We'll grow up to live these boring lives and never have fun again.

[theweasleywerewolf]

Oh, hey!

[theweasleywerewolf]

It’s okay. I totally understand you. Sometimes we just need to take a break, breathe and then come back to life. But, hey! Things always get better.

[readallabout-alice]

Yeah, and those few moments where you can actually find the chance to escape for a bit are the most peaceful ones. The only part that I hate is when you get sucked back into reality.

[anaandhercactus]

Thanks Merlin

[anaandhercactus]

Oh, no, Alice! You know what that means? We are becoming old people with boring lifes!

[readallabout-alice]

Oh no! That's the one thing I promised myself I'd never become! Quick, we need to stop being boring before we're stuck this way forever!

[teddyluppin-deactivated20140617]

Where’s this music coming from?

[readallabout-alice]

I think it's coming from this! *Holds up an iPod* I found this muggle device earlier and it won't stop making sounds! I kind of like it though...

[theweasleywerewolf]

Oh, hey!

You scared me! Why are you hiding?

[readallabout-alice]

Oh, sorry, I wasn't trying to hide. Just trying to get away from the real world for a bit. Life can get stressful at times, you know?

[auror-aidrik]

I case you were wondering...

[auror-aidrik]

Well, I’ve found a few special girls. Atalia… Rose… Or so I thought. I’ll find another one, no doubt. Maybe this time I’ll actually find the special girl. I’m more shocked that you haven’t found the one yet. I always thought you seemed like the type to settle down and get married young.

[readallabout-alice]

It might take some time, but I know you'll find that girl sometime soon. After all, you're a great guy, you're handsome, you have a good job. Any girl would be lucky with you.

Me? No way. I mean, I've had a few boyfriends before, but I want to be absolutely sure I met the right guy before I settle down. I don't want to end up like my parents fighting all the time.

[anaandhercactus]

Thanks Merlin

[anaandhercactus]

Well, there was… and also… oh, I remember-yeah, no. Life’s been pretty boring, actually. Just work. The usual. You are the agitated one, you tell me what’s new. 

[readallabout-alice]

Hmm, well let's see. There was that time at work...where I sat behind the desk...and filed paperwork all day. Oh, wait, that's practically every day of my life now. I guess nothing's new for me either!

[eagle-potter-deactivated2014021]

Oh come on!

[eagle-potter-deactivated2014021]

[He falls back to the grounds, bumping his head in the process.] Ouch. Thank you. So is there any particular reason why you decided to hex me while I’m in the middle of an article?

[readallabout-alice]

It was punishment. For not making any time in your busy schedule to spend some time with your favorite Longbottom.

[miaharvard]

Here's to the new year

[miaharvard]

I only outlasted you a little longer. It was about a month after that resolution I began my love-hate relationship with James. You didn’t make it an easier on me considering you two were already close to begin with. Well I’d have to say we’ve come a long way since then.

Oh! Remember the exchange during 7th year? That’s probably where that resolution would have come in most handy for you.

[readallabout-alice]

I remember that! I also remember how both of us had a crush on James at the same time and I thought it was the end of the world... We really have come a long way!

Don't even remind me of 7th year! That year was a complete and utter disaster when it came to my love life. If only I kept that resolution.

[auror-aidrik]

I case you were wondering...

[auror-aidrik]

I don’t know… You might have wanted to know about it for gossip material or something. [He grinned.]

[readallabout-alice]

Yes, because it's my dream to spill all of your gossip. *She rolled her eyes* I'm still a bit shocked a guy like you hasn't found that special girl yet.

[readallabout-alice]

Merlin, it's cold.

[theonlyonewhowood-blog]

He smiled. “What?”

[readallabout-alice]

Next time, warn a girl before you try to snog her! You're lucky I didn't pull my wand out and hex you.

[anaandhercactus]

Thanks Merlin

[anaandhercactus]

*He laughed” Yeah, I suppose that’s true. Oh! Extra payment is always nice.

[readallabout-alice]

Extra payment was probably the only nice thing about working. But it's nice to know I have a little bit of money in my pocket to spend whenever I want. *She laughed* So other than seeing your family on Christmas, what else have you been up to?

[anaandhercactus]

Thanks Merlin

[anaandhercactus]

My parents, grandparents and a few of my uncles. I know it sounds a lot, but it’s almost nothing in the Weasley Scale. *He smiled* Wow, yes. Working on New Years can’t be nice.

[readallabout-alice]

I'm not surprised. You Weasleys are a huge bunch. It's hard to keep track of you all. *She laughed* The only good part about working on New Years is that you get paid extra since it's a holiday. Other than that, it was just as boring as ever.
