Casting Call

[indy-go.livejournal.com]

Hi, all. Tonks here.

A Certain Plot in the making is going to require an additional character, namely, the angsty and broody and wonderful Harry Potter.

He'll probably only be at the bar a short time, maybe even just one night, but if you think you've got a good feel for him and would like to take him on, please let me know.

...I... Oh, God.

*passes out from sheer timid-ness*

Don't be shy! I think you'd be great. D'you want to email with me about it? I can tell you a bit more about what's in the works. meggouc@hotmail.com

Heh, you should try and find someone to be Tim Hunter too.
We could have an "Angsty-Teenage-Bespeckled-Boy-Wizard-a-thon"

[clumsy_auror]

Tim Hunter? Who's that?

[locks_it_up]

The originial Boy Wizard. Neil Gaiman's Books of Magic.

[clumsy_auror]

Nifty! I must admit my first and only Gaiman experience was very recent -- I went out and bought Good Omens after I spent my first night in Milliways laughing my ass of at the angel and demon. So I've got some catching up to do. :)

*chuffed*

Which conversation was that?

[clumsy_auror]

*giggles* I love the word 'chuffed.'

Honestly, I can't remember what it was about, specifically (...and I just discovered, looking for it, that the archive only goes back 640 entries, which is not even close to where I came in. The mind absolutely boggles.)

It was the banter, really. And the subtext. I was sucked in by the innate chemistry. :)

[clumsy_auror]

Okay, and I also just read your thread with Aziraphale tonight...

*hugs*

A MILLION NEW FACETS to Crowley. Seriously. You're a genuis.

You're lucky Tonks didn't hear, she'd have absolutely bawled. :)

It was just that (the accepted date of) Alexander's birthday was a few days ago, and geek that I am, I raised a glass, and flicked through some of my notes.

And then I was like *looking at notes* 'Snake.' *looking at aj_crawley* 'Snake.' *COFFEESPEW* 'SNAKE!'

[clumsy_auror]

*grins* Hurrah for geeks, and the joy we bring one another.

[aj_crawley]

It kind of makes sense though, doesn't it? The attitude, the bloody-mindedness, the occasional unnecessary cruelty, the recklessness, the drinking, the Big Gay Love...

Not to mention the occasional stroke of impossibly good luck. *wink*

[clumsy_auror]

It does make sense, actually.

I liked Crowley's "not sure how it happened, really" moment. *snickers, picturing the demon looking quizzically at a box of condoms*

[aj_crawley]

I blame it on a momentary distraction caused by the untimely interruption of a certain Philip II. Crowley took his eye out for that one.

[clumsy_auror]

*snorfles*

[aj_crawley]

Geek Power.

I've been watching Death and Constantine here, and because the first place I encountered either of them was through Books of Magic, I can't stop thinking about how Tim would react if he could see the two of you now... *grin*

[batyatoon]

(...dammit, I keep forgetting to switch screennames when I come here.)

[mnt_raph]

He's a boy wizard of Gaimen design that resides in Death/John Constantine/Vertigo's world. Predates Harry, but aside from the physical similarties, they're different.
Short explanation here.

[clumsy_auror]

Thanks! Wow, that's....uncanny.

[sign-seeker.livejournal.com]

It really is. He's a dark-haired boy wizard with unusual magical talent, a Destiny, glasses, and an owl.

It would be so awesome if we could get a Tim. Especially if he showed up before Harry did...

[clumsy_auror]

Go for it! Or have someone you know do it. Fun fun fun.

[sign-seeker.livejournal.com]

Oh, I don't know his canon anywhere near enough to play him. I'm just dropping unsubtle hints to Milliways at large.
