On being sent to Distant Skies Tempus James is not happy

[notofthisera]

You know, as well as I, that this entire idea is, hardly a good one. I don't even understand half the terms you are using to describe your present communication problem....Posting problem then, and you, want to put me, into a new place, with Helen and Nikola and, Helen's daughter you say. [And no he's not sure what to make of that information.]

And part of me is shown with an animal, which you have not chosen yet, though both of your choices, I admit, are rather, interesting and fitting, yes I do agree. Though I wonder what the others are, choosing, the other mundanes I mean yes. It is a very, fascinating thing, this choice in daemon...

But back to the point at hand, there is no viable reason to send me, from the time you have chosen, there. I have things to do, terms to learn, Helen's to watch over and insure one of them lives to come back and see me in this time, it is utterly preposterous of you to do this. Let me be, please.

Sounds like you have a mun who really cares about you!

[notofthisera]

Why on Earth would you say that?

[mini_potioneer]

Well he or she is putting you somewhere. I'm not allowed anywhere!

[notofthisera]

Yes she is, and I am about one hundred years younger than the others from my world going there...But why are you not allowed anywhere?

[mini_potioneer]

Wow. That's a long time. And something about Snape being my dad. Apparently it's unusual.

[notofthisera]

Indeed it is, and much has changed for us all in that time. And, I see, and your mundane has not found a place to send you, that accepts such a change in your life?

[mini_potioneer]

Yeah. I can just imagine what Hog--the castle looked like 100 years ago! Most places want this guy James to be my dad but he's dead. My dad is called Severus Snape. I don't care if we have different last names, he's always been my dad and I don't care if they don't like it.

That moment, when you realize...if it weren't for the age gap, this could be a problem xD

[notofthisera]

[Give him a moment, his name being James and the looks? Well...lets just remember that age gap yes?]

I imagine many things have changed, yes. And, your father, Mr. Snape, is he your adoptive father?

Oh lol! I didn't plan this. Honest!

[mini_potioneer]

He was this James guy's husband. They got married, wanted a kid and asked their friend Lily to help. And then I was born. But they're dead now.

You know, you're the first person I've met who hasn't heard the story. Though I didn't really introduce myself. That was rude of me.

I'm Harry. Harry Potter.

I didn't think you did! xD Happy coincidence really!

[notofthisera]

I am, terribly sorry to hear that, for you for not knowing him and for your father.

And I am, a touch out of date when it comes to such things.

And a pleasure Harry, I'm Dr. James Watson.

Now I wish I could thread with the James without the timeskip.

[mini_potioneer]

It's not very interesting for me but for everyone else. He Who Must Not Be Named killed them because he wanted me dead. Still hasn't told me why yet. But I guess I need to be older.

...What's a Dr?

I may just have to throw up a post with my modern James at some point then! That would be, amusing.

[notofthisera]

I must confess to not knowing, anyone by the name He Who Must Not Be Named. Not unless you are referring to Jack the Ripper. Though if others do not wish to tell you then, I can only imagine it is a tale, better left until you are older, some things are better understood with a more mature mind.

..And a doctor, a medical doctor. Someone who, tends to someones health, a healer of the body.

I'd like that. It certainly would be.

[mini_potioneer]

I don't actually know his real name. Dad says he'll tell me everything when I need to know it. And because I'm going to school properly in September, I needed to know about this James person.

Oh, you mean a healer! Why did you just say so?

My other game is settling in here the 10th I'll post with him around then about it then

[notofthisera]

That is a very, understandable and certainly responsible, approach to that. If this, James person were alive after all would he not also be your father?

And, it must be a difference in culture, the terms.

I'll look out for it.

[mini_potioneer]

I suppose so. But I never knew him. Things would be different if I did. Though, I doubt I'd be the same person. I'd probably have lived at home rather than at school. And I love living at school!

Yeah. Mug--I mean, I remember now. Now you've mentioned it.

I look forward to it!

[notofthisera]

Yes I imagine they would be, it is, after all, our parents who shape us at first. But your father is a teacher then, where does he teach?

And, I see. So you live, alongside, those who do use the term then?

As will I!

[mini_potioneer]

At...my new school. It's up in Scotland.

During the summer. We stay at Dad's parents house and his dad used to use the term.

[notofthisera]

Is it? Do you know the name of it?

And I see now yes. Is he still alive? Your father's father that is.

[mini_potioneer]

Of course I know the name of it. I've lived there since I was a year old! I'm just...not meant to tell.

I don't really know. I've only seen him...when I shouldn't have.

[notofthisera]

And why is that?

How did you, manage to do that then? Is he bedridden?

[mini_potioneer]

I shouldn't really talk about it. Especially if you're...

Can we talk about something else?

[notofthisera]

If you would like to, then of course we can. What would you like to discuss?

[mini_potioneer]

I don't know. Do you have any family?

[notofthisera]

No, I do not, I have been busy with my work, far to busy for such a thing.

[mini_potioneer]

You must have parents though. Are they dead too?
