[Warded to Mascots]

Hey, so it looks like we're the team mascots! Congrats, us!

I don't know how things traditionally are between mascots here, but I thought it might be cool if we we had some sort of a relationship. I mean, there are only four of us in the whole school. Could just be an occasional hang-out. Could be something bigger ~~where we have initiations or something and create traditions for future mascots to follow,~~ I don't know what, but I'd be open to brainstorm.

If people aren't into it, that's fine too! Just an idea.

Either way, congrats you guys!

When: I'm gonna say July 10thish, arbitrarily, around 1AM
Where: Atlanta. And then Brooklyn.
What: This is........seventeen pages of dork fluff. I'm not kidding. Lucas and Bash get up to some low level crime in the middle of the night.

so it's shark week.

in my house, that means it's time to melt into the couch while my dad yells at various australians on our tv as they stab great whites with tiny tracking-device harpoons and almost get themselves eaten by things.

which is great! but tonight's 'sharks and the city: nyc' special wasn't at all about anthropomorphic sharks living undetected in our neighborhoods, going to PTA meetings by day and chewing on small children and house pets under the cover of darkness. it wasn't even about sarah jessica parker secretly being a mako. and i'm really fucking disappointed. i'm just saying. a lot of potential was wasted here.

rethinking my reply to your earlier question: i am a terrible prefect and i have no idea what i'm doing. who allowed teenagers to be in any way responsible for other teenagers? like - how is this a thing? who thought this was a good idea?

[Warded to Wyatt]

when this whole school implodes and i lose my scholarship and my mother reveals her true, demonic form in order to eat my face straight off, please play something super nice at my funeral. like, maybe some beatles music. always a classic.

also: this inevitability also means that you will be morally obligated to take care of ariel. she's yours now. congratulations. also, gabi. but that's less of an obligation and more of a privilege. do not abuse it.

[Warded to Lucas]

are you studying? ~~is it worki~~ how's that going?

do you sometimes think about the fact that people attending no-maj schools only really maybe worry about people posting dumb shit about them on facebook? cause i totally think about that sometimes.

( cut for first failure )

[Warded to Lucas]

~~so i wa~~ ~~nope. not this again, you moron~~

do you want to go to prom with me?

i know that's real abrupt, but my first attempt got super wordy and ~~involved corpses~~ nobody needs a novella when less than a dozen words does the trick.

i'm not exactly sure what this sort of invitation is SUPPOSED to entail, but since we're all probably going to be hanging out like a ridiculously oversized gang anyway? i'm pretty much offering somebody who will REALLY enjoy listening to your scathing commentary on pretty much everybody there. and you can totally be in charge of the 'shut the fuck up, bash' card.

it's pink. and laminated.

to anybody that needs a room this summer, due to whatever:

we got space at mine. (it ain't a HUGE amount of space or nothing, but there's at least two rooms - depending on the amount of sisters we got in residence - and they got doors and everything.) it ain't an imposition. my mom doesn't mind. won't be the first time. she's done it before.

note: YOU'D have to deal with my family living there. which is probably a gigantic imposition for YOU. but the offer stands. for, y'know, however long you need it.

i mean, we're not the hotel california. but it's something.

- bash lacroix

p.s. - hush your mouth, wyatt. nobody's gonna murder me if i offer them a room for a bit.
p.p.s. - i am also not a murderer. just, as a general and possibly reassuring note.

professionalcorpse

[Wyatt]

wyatt.

wyatt, what part of: "go to bed or i will let my sister eat you" was unclear?

professionalcorpse

so, apparently my sister got into my luggage?

and like, left me a ridiculous amount of sticky notes that, despite all outward appearances, i am certain are entirely motivational and filled with deep love and affection. clearly meant to inspire me to become a better and more well-rounded person. bet you can't guess which one isn't from ariel.

( spellotaped haphazardly into his journal - and cut for the betterment of humanity )

so that's a small sampling of why i am the person that i am.

professionalcorpse

Who: Bash & Ariel Lacroix
When: Sunday Night, Whatever O'Clock
Where: Their bedroom. Specifically, a dog bed in their bedroom.
What: In which we are formally introduced to the other 87% of Bash's social skills.
Warnings: They curse a lot?

( Sometimes Bash thinks about linguistics. )

[Warded to Sophomores]

i hope that everyone is still alive.

~~and very proud of yourselves.~~ ~~holy shit, i sound like my MOM.~~

also, i have medication - of both the magic and no-maj variety.

if anybody needs it.

~~fuck. i AM my mom.~~

professionalcorpse

i feel strongly like i could make a real starter career out of this whole dying thing.

like - think about it. just HOW many no-maj television shows have at least one corpse per episode? i mean, there's like twenty-seven 'law & order's ALONE. and then all the friggin 'CSI's. there's about seventeen of those things. get in some light exercise as a mobile corpse over on 'walking dead' before i take a steak knife to the eye-socket or something. i could do, like, the full murder-show circut. maybe throw in some films. put away a nice nest-egg for college on being brutally and fictionally murdered on the regular.

real solid resume builder right there. listed under other skills: professional corpse.

garogletree

Who: Sebastien Lacroix and Garrett Ogletree
When: Wednesday, March 1 in the evening (during the Great Journal Blackout)
Where: Prefecting around campus.
What: Bash and Garrett are on rounds and are just silly.
Warnings: None there are like two curse words because they are just dumb sophomores

( Why anyone let them be prefects is a mystery. )

professionalcorpse

okay, probably gonna seem super weird all written out like this, but if anybody needs their hair done up all fancy and shit for the dance tomorrow? i can totally help. my sisters make me do it for them all the time. so like, i can do all those crazy braid things. ESPECIALLY the crazy braid things.

and, um - it's really kind of relaxing? so i don't mind doing it at all.

so, yeah.

an available thing. in a totally not-weird way?

[Warded to Gabi]

hey, so i was wondering if you'd mind if i swung around and walked you to the dance? i mean, you don't got to GO with me or nothing. if you don't want. i just thought you might like an escort.

and you KNOW hanging out with you's pretty much my favorite thing to do.

professionalcorpse

[Gabi]

hey, uh - do you have rounds tonight?

cause, y'know, i could totally walk with you. if you do.

or you could walk with me? if i have rounds.

do i have rounds?

also do you ever think about the fact that this place is essentially a cellular deadzone AND an anti-apparition zone, so that if we all were being hunted down and murdered we'd have no good way of escape. or even a REALLY good way to call authorities? ~~like it's really fucking concerning.~~ ~~i mean, there are definitely safety measures.~~ ~~but STILL.~~ ~~and i want to call my dad.~~ ~~because i'm an infant.~~

i genuinely have no idea if i have rounds. i mean, i didn't THINK so, but now i think that i'm OVERthinking it and have totally confused myself. clearly i am a horrible prefect and should be sent to prefect jail.

professionalcorpse

i'm not even gonna lie right now, people - one time, there was a wasp in my mom's car and i was legit tempted to jump right the hell out of an actual moving vehicle. these things are like MAYBE the size of a wasp if it got together for a lengthy brunch with friends and then ate like three OTHER wasps for dessert and then went out behind the wasp gym and took some SERIOUS steroids. i do not want these bastards anywhere NEAR me.

this is the shit that nightmares are made of.

professionalcorpse

oh god.

the air. it's so fresh. so fresh and clean and unpolluted. even the SNOW is clean. who has CLEAN snow? my brief return to reality has reminded me that real snow is covered in dirt and angry car marks and dog piss. seriously, though - what EVEN IS this narnia-ass bullshit? this is not what actual life looks like, people.

oh, gooseberry. how i have missed your fresh, piney nonsense.

i just don't think that my lungs are prepared.

professionalcorpse

holy god, gooseberry TAKE ME BACK.

it has only been like 70 hours and i have already been forced to go to the nitehawk with my nieces and watch 'frozen' SEVEN TIMES. SEVEN. SO FAR. if you have not yet had the ~~mis~~ ~~good~~ ~~mis~~ FORTUNE. IF YOU HAVE NOT YET HAD THE i-don't-know-which-prefix-fits-best-here-FORTUNE - well, don't. really.

first time? totally okay. legit disney movie - plot holes. sure. whatever. they happen to the best of us. idina menzel has the voice of a very gifted angel who will inevitably win a shit ton of awards for this. we laughed. we cried. it was a wonderful experience for everyone involved.

SEVENTH time? the plot is more holes than plot. the movie is unraveling before my eyes. where was the foreshadowing? is hans just a really incapable villain? does he have an evil twin nobody bothered to tell us about - because, really, ain't nobody planning on shanking a bitch they smile at soppily WHEN NO ONE IS LOOKING. is he just a method actor? why didn't they use the PERFECT AND TOTALLY AVAILABLE POINT for a dramatic and darker reprise to 'love is an open door' that was readily available?

HOW IS 'LET IT GO' A GOOD MESSAGE FOR ANYONE? yeah, sure, i totally have a job and responsibilities and shit but, y'know what dudes? screw that noise! people were mildly surprised that i went straight up 'carrie' on some bitches at my dinner party? SO SCREW THEM ALL. and now i'm gonna freeze ALL their asses and SING about it. also, for someone who had no idea how to use their super magic ice powers five seconds ago, you sure as shit got into some advanced interior design and fashion like REAL QUICK. your learning curve is INSANE. and trying to murder your siblings? yeah, sure, man. hella polite. you're a model citizen.

and where the everliving hell were blonde dude's parents? did he just wander off into the fucking woods with his miniature reindeer, never to be heard from again? did NO ONE look for him? what did he EAT IN MAGIC ICE LAND with only rock trolls to raise him? was he kidnapped by the weird, rock-trolls? did the trolls kill his parents? was he already an orphan? why is there NO INFORMATION ON THIS.

AND THE TROLLS. trolls are not jolly. they do not sing things. but, i mean, okay. no-mag suspension of belief glasses on BUT STILL. and, don't get me wrong here, trolls are definitely a part of scandinavian mythology as a whole? but EVEN THOSE trolls? would not want to marry you off to semi-attractive gingers. they'd either force you to become their child-bride and pet their hair at night or they'd straight up assault you.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND. also, i respect the fact that my sister has to go out, but i don't WANT to go see it again tomorrow.
