So here's the plan:

Maybe I'll be a chaser instead.

Mum and dad don't mind, just so's long as I'm happy and don't hurt no-one and do my chores.

Tricks on them cause I won't do any chores after I change the ice cream world.

It's soon.
The wand bit.
Also the old bit.
I'll make my sister's do my chores then.

Probably not but.
I'm bigger so I'm sposed to do things that are good for them.
Never mind about making them do chores.

Hey don't go yet!
Do you want to see my rocks?
I got a big pile of them.
Rocks and rocks and rocks.
Sometimes we go out to the cliffs and I'm allowed to take more.
Some days I don't get to get more rocks but mum reads her books out loud.

That's good too.
I don't know most of the words but it sounds pretty so that's good.

Roleplay:
Reply as your character to the following:

Godric Park.

Overhead, the sky was a crisp blue, for once clear of the ever-pervasive spongy clouds and rain. The sun was a lemony-yellow presence, high in the Eastern sky, and in front of it zipped three broomsticks in a straight line, or something very like one. One... two..... three... the boys passed, their shouts of excitement echoing as they chased the snitch, a tiny shimmer reflecting the sunlight.

Far below was another, much smaller broomstick.

It trugged along the ground, hugging close to it like a sluggish choo choo train and occasionally shuttering in protest. This was because said stick was currently being occupied by a very small girl who was tugging upward on the front of it with all her might, trying to coax it into doing what it had been expressly designed NOT to do.

"John, I said wait up!" The tiny girl squealed, giving the broomstick another tug.

Begrudgingly, it drifted upward a foot, and then sank, depositing the troublesome girl safely on the ground. Janey Hurst was not pleased. In a huff, she hopped off the toy safety broom, grabbing it firmly and thrusting it handle first into the turf.

Her brother was such a beast. He NEVER let her play! She folded her arms, seething blue eyes fixing on another figure nearby.  "You!" She barked, much more sharply than she meant to.

"...Do you want to play?"

Roleplay Response:
"You!" She barked, sharp enough to draw blood.

Maybe Verve had stepped on her foot. Sometimes that happened without him noticing- stepping on things, or barreling into things. The former seemed more likely. She didn't look barrelled-into.

Verve readied an eager gaze, felt his lipcorners curl despite the oncoming storm of this stranger who might turn his bones to bread. A tiny giant, he reflected, is the preferred type of giant.

"...Do you want to play?"

"I do," his runaway grin shot out like a gnome over a hedge, "I do want to play!"

Similarly, unexpected play was the preferred type of play. He had lucked into a kind of preferred-circumstance-circumstance, which was a preferred circumstance.

"I gotta get my ball first," Verve flailed in the direction of the errant quaffle which had brought him to this corner of the park, "and then you can tell me about the rules. Okay?"

Elsewhere Accepted / Honeydukes

SHOPKEEPER PERMIT
You must have applied as an Elsewhere character before completing this permit.

Shop name: Honeydukes
Shop Type: Candy shop
Location: Hogsmeade
Subforum? Pre-existing subforum here.

Short Description (50 words max): Enchanting aromas and magical delights await all who step foot inside this legendary sweet shop. From Fizzing Whizzbees to Pixie Puffs, satisfy your sweet tooth with the world’s most marvelous wizarding confections.

Long Description (200 words min): Founded in 1641, Honeydukes stands as an iconic cornerstone of Hogsmeade. The quaint green doors and faded gold H O N E Y D U K E S nameplate does not properly imbue the vibrancy that awaits shoppers.

Brilliant hues of red, blue, and green explode across the open shelves and inside the hundreds of glass jars neatly stacked upon counters. The rows upon rows of confections are adorned in their elegant packaging, showcasing that Honeydukes boasts a selection from around the world. Of course, it is not the sugar that makes Honeydukes’ wares special, it is the magic infused into each and every treat. Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans offer a whimsical adventure with every bite, from earwax to tutti-frutti. Exploding Bonbons add an element of surprise, while the delicate Sugar Quills promise to satisfy both sweet tooths and intellectual minds alike, to name a few favorites. Stationed beside the front doors of the shop are a stack of metal buckets that allows patrons to fill up with as many sweets as they can carry.

The shop is currently owned by Bernard “Bernie” Thistleberry (NPC), an eccentric man with thick glasses and graying wisps of leftover hair. Bernie is a longtime and proud Hogsmeade community member and an amateur confectioner. Secretly tucked away in the locked back room is Bernie’s personal laboratory, where he (attempts to) make his own enchanted sweets to, at times, disastrous affect. If you are brave enough to taste one of Bernie’s creations, they can be found at the front near the registers.

Easton Warwick, who has been working at the shop since he was fifteen years old has recently been promoted to manager. The added responsibility allowed Bernie to focus more on his creations and his dream of one day being a famous candy maker.

What purpose will this shop serve other than selling things and being the home of your character? Why would people want to RP there just for fun? Honeydukes is one of the most recognizable shops in HP canon and will allow players to immerse themselves into a familiar part of this universe. Additionally, this shop provides a great opportunity for characters to meet up with lots of external magical elements to interact with. There will also be an opportunity for employment for adults and student-aged characters alike.
