Shannon walked up the stairs, trying to find James, while she clutching her arm with a dish towel, she had cut it with a shard of glass from a broken vase that she had tried to unpack. She heard voices inside a room and looked in, trying not to be noticed. She saw James and Wylow. On a bed. Together. She turned around and slowly walked back down the stairs. She had been planning to apologize to James, but now that she thought about it, she didn't know what to apologize for.

James never saw Shannon there, he was staring at Wylow's Dark Mark, which seemed to fill him with dread every time he looked at it.
ooc: hmm, should I bring in Jake Elhide as an 'old mate' of the dead and deceased Piperel?...He could do a Pip imitation, so we could have him back again (With Darius' permission of course)...I don't think I'd be as good as Darius at playing him though.

ooc: Yeah, you could do that. It'd be quite interesting.

ooc: I'll wait till Darius gets back on, though, in case there was already some kind of plan relating to Piperel.
By the way, I've just started an RP, The Knights of Walpurgis, I didn't know if anyone here might want to join. :flowersmile:

ooc: I'm supposing that 'anyone' meant me, being as I'm the only one here. I'll go look at it. Oh, and are you still reading The Order? What page are you on?

ooc: oh..yeah...that's right, I guess you were the only one I was talking to then. Although tomorrow, more people may see the post.

As to the page I'm on, this undoubtedly will be a longer reply than you were expecting...
Well, I was on page 50 or so sometime this morning, until my brother took over the computer, and closed all my windows. grr...
So then, I was faced with the task of using that annoying page selection thingummy at the top of the page, (which is handy if you're only reading the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or Last page, which are your only choices, but is really annoying if you're trying to get back to page, oh say, 50), and after a good 10 minutes of hitting next page, next page, refresh, (I was constantly arriving at pages that, apparrently, Could Not Be Displayed,) next page, next page, etc., I came to a realization. As you may or may not have noticed, in the address bar, when you're reading a topic, the address is bla bla bla snitchseeker, bla bla something-or-other, then a number, (which I've learned is the number of the topic, surprise surprise), and then another number. Well, I discovered that this is the post number. So, if you type in that number as 50, it'll take you to a page starting with the 50th post, and then the, 14-or-something posts after it. Unfortuanately, when you use this method, due to some SS error maybe, the "annoying page selection thingummy" disappears.

Okay, that's the long, exhausting back story, now to answer your question: I have no idea what page I'm on, but I do know that I'm on Post #2638.

Did you really read all of that? (And if it makes me sound like a big idiot, I swear it's all because I'm tired. :whisle

ooc: Woah. Okay. Wow. Did you know that where the page selection thing is, if you click on "Pages" you can type in the number of the page you want to go to?

oh.

Never knew that. Now I don't feel so special. *Hangs head in shame for making you read that whole thing for nothing.*

By the way, do you know if there are any Beatles fan thingies in the Leaky Cauldren? I was gonna start one, cause I couldn't find any, but I wasn't sure if I just missed it.

ooc: No, you are special, I didn't know about the post number thingy. I don't think there is a Beatles thing, though. Gah! I need to RP, I am so bored. If there were more people who stuck to this RP, maybe I would have something to do!

ooc: well, it's nice to feel special...
maybe I'll just introduce that Jake Elhide character anyway, looking for Piperel.

A knock at the door. Who could it be??

Shannonn heard a knock at the door, and coming down the stairs, still clutching her arm in the towel, opened the door.

There stood Piperel. "Is dis tha place, den, love?" he asked Shannon.
ooc: I guess Jake is doing a Piperel immitation as a joke, doesn't realize the effect it will have, since he believes Pip to still be alive.

"Piperel?" Shannon was starting to believe she was dreaming.

"No, I's just foolin'." he said, turning back into his normal self, which was by no means better looking. "But Pip's 'ere, am I right?" he asked cheerfully, with an emphasis on the T in right, so it sounded more like 'righta' "We's mates, me an' Pip." he added.
ooc: Jake's a metamorphagus (sp?)

ooc: double post.

"No, actually, you're wrong, he's dead," shannon said shortly

OOC: I’m here…just haven’t been posting...hehehe…sorry…I really am.

Na’Sile walked out of the main room and to the entrance hearing a knock on the door. It seemed like every half an hour a new person was showing up. She glanced at the door and saw a man, it seemed to be another one of Shannon’s friend for they were talking so causally and freely. Or she did the man seemed to be talk in some sort of dialect like Na’Sile grandmother and other family but that probably was because he didn’t hail from here.

“Hello.” Na’Sile said in her usual cheery voice with her normal smile added in. Amazing how she could be so happy all the time.

"Dead?" he asked disbelievingly. "Dead??" he put held face in his hands "How could ye do this to me, Pip?" he sobbed. "And ye be owin' me 2 bottles o' rum!" he cried for a moment, then looked up at Shannon. "oo' killed him?" he asked. "Not you, love?" He ignored Na'Sile.

"Although many times I would have liked to, I didn't kill him. Voldemort did."

Na’Sile looked over at the man who seemed to be breaking down slightly. Why was everyone bringing up the horrible past…She sighed lightly. The man seemed to be ignoring her, everyone seemed to be ignoring her today, except for Hayden, but where had he went?

"Well, I tell you wot..." The man said, straightening up. "...in Pip's mem'ry, I'll find dis 'Voldy-mor,' an' I'll get ma 2 bottles o' rum, to boot!" With that, he stepped inside and closed the door behind him.

"What's your name?" Shannon asked, "Who are you?... Better yet, why don't I give you third degree under veritaserum? I'm sure my boyfriend who doesn't trust anyone would like that."

"Veri-what?...Tird grade? I ain't never been to school, love...What's dat about a boyfriend?" he asked.

"It doesn't surprise me you're a friend of Piperel's..." Shannon said. "Nevermind. Who are you?

Na’Sile watched the two of them talk not interrupting their little…conversation? The man seemed a bit clueless about anything and everything. Na'Sile was starting to wondering what he was doing here, really, he couldn't be any help could he?
