This place is wicked. Well, the whole Mum-and-Dad-being-almost-our-age-and-not-together bit is off, but I got to meet Teddy's dad and Dad's godfather and Uncle Ron. Except, well, Uncle Ron's a bit young. And I've only met them all metaphorically. Or rather, just over the internet. But details, really

...........

Jamesette?!

[namesofthegreat]

Jameserella sounded stupid.

[anotherjames]

Not the point. The POINT is that I'm not female!

Or should I start calling you Allison and see how you like it?

[namesofthegreat]

You don't have to be female to act like one, Jamesy.

People will just think you're a nutter. Which you are, but that's not the point.

[kidoban]

Pleased to meet you, Al-san. ^_^ Yes, this place is a little odd but you get used to it after a while.

My name is Fuji, and I'm a tennis playing Muggle from Japan.

[namesofthegreat]

Eh? What's the "-san" business, then? Odd? How do you figure?

Oh ace! Always thought tennis would be fun to play. Granted it's nothing without a bit of magic, but I have to go muggle for summer hols as it is.

[kidoban]

-san is an honorific. It's like Mr. or Miss or Mrs., but tagged onto the end of the name. ^_^ As for how I figure, well, the matter of all these alternate versions of people you know in their own timelines and realities is proof enough.

It's funny you mention magical tennis. ^_^

[namesofthegreat]

Ah, I see. Well Albus or Al's really fine. No need for an honorific. And good point.

Is it? Why?

[irishhalfblood]

Another Harry-Spawn. 'Lo. I'm Seamus.

[namesofthegreat]

Not the way I would have put it, but he, er, is my dad?

Seamus Finnigan? Dad's old classmate?

[irishhalfblood]

Yeah, I've met your brother already.

That'd be me. Also known as 'the drunken Irish one that blows things up'.

[namesofthegreat]

I apologize for that.

I think I've heard stories about that, actually.

[eatchurbrains]

mmm...welcome. there seem to be a couple of you crawling out of the woodwork...

i'm sunako

pleased to meet you.

[namesofthegreat]

Crawling out of the woodwork? That's a great mental image.

Nice to meet you, Sunako. Where are you from, then?

[eatchurbrains]

MMmmm, i thought so too. like little maggots. But that's not an insult, i like that sort of thing.

I'm from tokyo, or at least close enough to say that.

[namesofthegreat]

I--ah. Er. You like imagining crawling maggots?

Japan, then? That's a bit far away, then.

[spidersrbadmkay]

Harry really has no naming sense, does he? Not a single original name in the lot.

[namesofthegreat]

Well I'm not named after anyone he's related to, at least?

And really, er. No offense, Uncle Ron, but...Hugo? Poor boy.

[spidersrbadmkay]

That does help.

Hermione would have been the one to come up with that name. Not me.

[namesofthegreat]

I've always thought so.

That's true. But you didn't really put up a fight with that one.
