After Ginny finishes her final year at Hogwarts, she's stunned to learn that Harry, who's been out of school a year, is engaged. Not wanting to return to the Burrow, which will be full of wedding planning and activity, Ginny escapes to Diagon Alley for a bit of independent living. The twins kindly take Ginny in and offer her a job, and she drags Neville and Luna along as flatmates. Who knows what will happen now that they are living independently?
This is a VERY loose storyline so far, but we want to have the chance to explore these characters as rising adults. I have all of the main characters filled at this point. If you are interested, go ahead and post your character idea. To be honest, I'd prefer HP characters (but not necesarily HRH) rather than made-ups... although a quality made-up is always welcome. If I don't feel your character will add to the story, I probably won't say yes. Also, we're quite serious about RPing, so if you aren't on at night EST, CST, or you will only post very sporadically, don't bother. This is advanced RPing, so YES, your posts need to be longer and more detailed and we DO care about your spelling and grammar.

| Hermione felt quite foolish in the sunglasses, so she politely took them off, hoping Fred woudln't notice and make a fuss. She let herself be led up the Alley, with Luna on Fred's other side, only a few heads turning. She supposed most of the regulars at Diagon Alley had gotten used to the twins. When they arrived at the patch of trees and grass, Hermione showed Fred Ethel. "So... is there some sort of ceremonial procedure to do?" She asked, even without the glasses, still feeling quite silly.

| Technically technical all the time Bookaholic Luna allowed herself to be taken under Fred's arm and the three set off down the street. When they came to the patch of grass with trees Hermione asked Fred about some sort of ceremony and Luna stepped forward. "If you don't mind..." she said, looking to Fred and then taking Ethel from Hermione.
Luna knelt down in the grass and cradles the ladybug in her hands. Holding her hands up to her face, she looked in on the lady bug and smiled as she crawled up onto her nose. Luna rested her hands on her knees and closed her eyes, muttering words under her breath.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen Fred finished up his song alone, somewhere around the fourth verse where he couldn't remember anymore words. When they arrived at the patch of grass, Fred took a good look around. This was a perfect place for Ethel..lots of grass..he was sure water got to this place when it rained...trees to climb....no blood thirsty birds overhead. But then Luna took Ethel, Fred felt very uncomfortable with her in the possession of someone as nutters as Luna, but he didn't interupt. She was on her knees talking mumbo jumbo under her breath and Fred went into a fit of giggles. He was laughng so hard by the time Luna had Ethel on her noise, that he fell right over on the grass. "Luna..what on earth....are ...you doing?" He said still laughing aloud, but scooted closer to Luna on the ground. |

| Technically technical all the time Bookaholic Luna opened her eyes and looked over at Fred who was crawling over toward her. "I was giving Ethel a send off," she replied, simply, as if what she were doing were perfectly normal. "Would you like to say a few words?"

| Hermione cocked her head to the side, watching Luna, and then Fred who was next to her on the ground. She felt quite awkward, standing there being dignified, so she walked over to the two and sat down in front of them, crossing her legs, waiting for the 'ceremony' to continue or end.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen "Well, let me have Ethel and I'll say good-bye to her myself." Fred took Ethel into his hands and moved away from the girls to have time alone with Ethel. He watched her for a bit crawling over his fingers. Then, he had another idea, and pulled his wand out. He put his wand to her outer shell, and muttered a little curse, turning her tiny black spots to a shade of neon green. Then he placed her lightly on a small nearby flower. "Till we meet again, Ethel!" And he gave her a small wave.
Fred crawled back over and sprawled himself between the two girls on the ground. "Well, we've done our good deed for the day, and I'm not really sure if I can get up, so what do you girls want to do?" |

| Hermione stared at Fred for a few seconds, wondering about what had just come out of his mouth. Was it just her or was he being quite suggestive? Well, it was probably him, she reasoned, he was the drunk one. "What do you suggest we do, Fred?" She asked, with a somewhat accusing look about her. But, she found herself smiling against her will.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen "Wha...? I didn't.."Fred was sure his face was the color of Ethel's shell. He hadn't meant it like that, but quickly redeemed himself, or rather Mort's finest redeemed him.."..well, now that you mention it, I was suggesting we snog like rabbits right here in the street. What do you say, Mione?"
Fred regreted saying it right after it slipped out of his mouth. His 'unsoberism' was starting to wear a bit, and he was becoming a bit more conscious of his actions...."I...wait, that wasn't me, that was Mort, no that was me, but it's Mort's drink talking..no, wait." Fred's cheeks were growing redder and redder, "I'm sorry Hermy, I didn't mean that. Not that I don't really like you..wait, not like that, I don't think anyways...."he said trailing off. "I think I need another drink to fix this.." |

| Hermione grinned at how she made Fred blubber like an idiot and his face turn scarlet. "Don't worry about it, Fred," she said, looking at him. "And I really don't think you need another drink, I think you just need to lay here and sober up, or go lay somewhere else and sober up." She observed him, lying there lazily. "But the second option is only availible if you are willing and able to use your leg muscles."
She figured once he was sober, he would start making more sense, not babbling on about how he did or didn't really like her as this and that and whatnot. And being drunk wasn't good for Fred, Hermione told herself, and she didn't want anything happening to him on her accord.

Um..so are you two going to stay here with me while I sober or leave me here in the street alone? I'd sure appreciate such lovely company...."Fred said sweetly and with a big grin to the two girls. |

| Hermione shrugged, "I'll stay," She said, laying down on the grass, "I have nothing else to do." She turned her head to the side to watch Fred, as if expecting him to do something else utterly insane, but he didn't.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen "Good! I think the drinks are finally getting to me..."Fred said with a huge yawn. Not really knowing why, but doing so anyways, he pulled both girls to him and let them use his shoulders as pillows. "This is nice.."he said with another yawn. "See that cloud Hermione?" He asked while nodding to a large fluffy one overhead, "I'm going to name that Mione.."and with that Fred fell fast asleep, and his head rolling over Hermione's way.. |

| It was quite nice, lying there in the grass, the cool summer breeze blowing, and Fred's head on her shoulder. Much nicer than she ever thought it would be... She, too, closed her eyelids, giving in to their drooping. She told herself she wouldn't fall asleep, just lay there for a few minutes.

| Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee George was confused again. He thought perhaps that Fred had just been talking to a ladybug before he dragged Hermione out the door with him. Luna had left soon after, and George just stared across the table blindly trying to figure out what was going on. He realized belatedly that he was staring right at Guin, and she looked at him as if he were crazy.
"No, you see... I'm the sane twin," George explained patiently. "I have no idea what just happened here, but obviously I've been mistaken all these years. FRED is the one with animal magnetism, as most of the women left with him. To be honest, though, I'm not too disappointed with my company. I'll buy you a drink if you promise not to poke me."

| Technically technical all the time Bookaholic Luna smiled as Fred carefully plucked the ladybug off of her nose, turned her spots neon green, and bid her ado. But, her eyelids soon began to droop and she eventually lost the thread of the conversation. Before she knew it, she was dragged over to Fred, her head resting on his shoulder. That was all the cue her body needed and she promptly fell asleep, even before Fred's own head had lolled over onto Hermione's shoulder.

| Despite her attempts to stay awake, Hermione found herself drifting in and out of consciousness. She opened her eyes when she started to realize the crowd was thinning and the sunlight started to change by the sounds and the shadows cast upon her eyelids. She looked to her shoulder and saw Fred right there, quite close, and Luna, asleep on his other shoulder. She realized how strange this may have looked to someone passing by, and the patch of grass where they were wasn't too far out of sight of any passers-by in the Alley.
Hermione gently stood up, putting her hand under Fred's head and placing it softly on the ground, before waking both he and Luna up, telling them they should probably get up. Once she was sure they were both awake, she bid them goodbye and apparated to her home right outside muggle London, which was close to Diagon Alley, thankfully. Once Harry had been in all the stores he wanted to, bought a new quidditch book, and some broom polish, along with something he wanted to give Ginny, it was nearly evening and he decided to walk back towards the twins' store. Maybe the two could have dinner or something.

| Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee Guin took George up on his offer to buy her a drink, and they spent a bit longer than either realized talking about Guin's work in Egypt. George hadn't known Guin other than to pass her in the Common Room, but he found that she was very pleasant company indeed, as long as she kept her pointing finger to herself. Finally, George realized the time and excused himself to go back and make sure the store was actually open and running, even though it was nearly time to close. The door was closed and the sign was turned right at 7. Ginny as proud of herself, having run the shop successfully all afternoon without either of the twins. She'd done a good job too, considering she didn't know all of their newer products. As she turned the lock, Ginny saw Harry wandering by, peering in to see if the shop was open. She unlocked the door and opened it for him. "Hey, stranger! We're closed, but you can take the lovely shopgirl out for a bite."

| Technically technical all the time Bookaholic Luna was having another one of her strange dreams when she felt someone tap on her shoudler. She woke up to see Hermione standing over her and Fred, telling them they should get up. Hermione seemed to be looking around, she was probably worried about what the passersby would think of one of the Weasley twins sleeping under a tree with a couple of girls. Luna sat up, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and sighed as Hermione disapparated. Turning to an equally sleepy looking Fred, Luna said, "I need to get back to my flat now."

| Harry greeted her with a kiss on the forhead, "Hello," He said, "I'd be delighted to take you out, but first..." He reached into one of the bags, looking for what he had bought Ginny. It seemed pretty lame and predictable now that he thought about it, but he couldn't back down now. He handed her a bouquet of red roses, that slowly changed into an organge color and abck to red.

| Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee Ginny's eyes widened as she stared at the bouquet of roses, before she brought them to her nose and breathed deeply of the scent. "This might sound stupid," she acknowledged, "but no one has ever bought me flowers before. They're beautiful." Ginny grinned at Harry with an enthusiasm that made her look about 8-years-old, especially with her red hair falling out its ponytail and her face clean of make-up and smattered with light cinnamon freckles. "Can I take them to dinner with us?"

| "Of course you can," He said, smiling, happy that she liked the flowers. He looked her over... she looked no less than adorable, but in a mature way. "If you're ready, where would you like to go?" He asked.

| Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee Ginny thought about it for a moment. She had only eaten in so far, not counting her days on the road, so she really had no idea what restaurants were good on Diagon Alley. "Do you think we could just go to the Leaky Cauldron, or would that be too boring? The twins haven't paid me yet, and I know how much their food costs. Plus, their sandwiches are really good."

| "First of all, you don't have to worry, I'm paying. And the Leaky Cauldron is fine. They do have good sandwiches, but you need to remind me to take you somewhere fancier next time." Harry took hold of Ginn'y hand as they left the store, heading down Diagon Alley to the Leaky Cauldron, "So, how was buisiness today?"

| Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee "Fine," Ginny agreed practically. "I'm going to pay next time, though. And work was fine. I ran the whole story, and I didn't hurt anyone or burn anything down. That's saying a lot considering their merchandise." Ginny lifted Harry's arm and twirled herself like a ballerina, finally turning her body and running into him. "Oops," she laughed and settled back down to walking next to him, swinging their hands slightly.
