Oh dear, this is embarrassing! Until last night I thought Sirius was joking when he mentioned the back room! Like the lake and the staff quarters I thought it was a virtual place we had to imagine. However, someone has kindly and gently put me right and steered me in this direction and I am astounded by what's going on in here.
I'm told I should make an introduction but I'll cut that because it'll be boring.
Gilbert Whimple is from the HP fandom but not really. I would like to claim to be the only person ever to have written about him but I expect I'm not. If you look on P.86 of the US version of GOF near the top you will see Arthur say "That's Gilbert Whimple. He works for the Experimental Charms Committee - he's had those horns for a while now" and that's all we know about him. Just for info, Gilbert was accidentally turned into a faun. He has horns, rather furry legs and a very affectionate nature. He thinks Sirius is just wonderful but will readily adore any character who takes the trouble to be nice to him. If it's agreeable to the management, shortly, I would like to make Gil's little bit of the staff quarters and the far end of the kitchen table an angst free zone where people can come for a rest and some tea and sympathy. Angst is all very well but the RPG that Gilbert has fled is making ulcers on my soul!
On a more personal note I am![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
essayel, I am British hence gil's habit of disappearing just as the evening begins to get interesting *sigh*, and I am very very happy to be here.
Gilbert will be happy to further any plot anyone wishes to include him in but has no plans to start any of his own.
