i’m reading an advance copy of clariel and i skipped ahead to the author’s note and OH MY GOD THAT SECOND PARAGRAPH

ANOTHER STORY ABOUT NICHOLAS AND LIRAEL 

Apart from being a very cool project this raises a few thoughts…

pulling pranks and flirting with seventh-years and telling an over-exaggerated version of his death to anyone who will listen, haunting slytherin first years and popping up in the boring classes and making faces at the teachers behind their backs

skip a few decades. george weasley dies.

Philosophy- Nil

Astronomy- Nil

Politics- Feeble

Botany- Variable (knows how to poison his girlfriend)

Geology- Practical, but limited (tries to impress John by telling him which part of London different mud comes from)

Chemistry- Profound

Anatomy- Accurate but unsystematic

Sensational Literature- Immense (He appears to know every detail of every Johnlock fanfic horror perpetrated in the century)

Remember Gingerhaze’s Party King Thranduil and Party Elk? My sister Cindy and I dressed up as them for the Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug premiere! And we met many lovely elves, hobbits, a Radagast, and even a Smaug while waiting for it to start! We both made our costumes by ourselves and Cindy will talk about her construction process on http://cationdesigns.blogspot.com/ as usual. My elk head was paper mache, cardboard, wire hangers, glow sticks, googly eyes, and battery powered LED lights. Much fun was had. My king passed out drunk. Also one of the dwarves looked like Nimona.

this makes me sad.. he was such a bad father..
