Voice Test

[potteryourotter]

Okay, so, you're not planning on applying for me at...wherever I'm going for, what, a month or something? I guess it's better than what you've been doing so far with your spontaneous applying. I think you'll be okay, though. I mean, you've just got to get the audiobook for the fourth one, right? And then all you'll have to do is actually get started on the application.

Okay, and it'll be really nice, if a bit strange, to get to know my dad when he was a teenager.

Just don't get too nervous about it! Nobody's perfect when they first try something, right?

This is all your fault, Harry.

[potteryourotter]

What? How is it my fault?

[emoteaspoon]

Because! You and your...head-voice thing are going to get us stuck!

[potteryourotter]

The...mun? Well, it's not like we can stop them from getting us stuck in Wonderland. And at least we'll have our wands?

[emoteaspoon]

You don't understand, mate. [WHISPERS DRAMATICALLY:] I was never supposed to leave her head!

[potteryourotter]

[Sigh.]

And I wasn't supposed to, either. Something about some unseen pressure if she can't get my personality down.

[emoteaspoon]

...Was it that one scary girl they keep calling a panda?

[potteryourotter]

Oh, no, it's not her. It's more like the rest of the fans she's more afraid of? Though, I guess she also doesn't want to be a let-down to panda girl.

[emoteaspoon]

Oh. Right. Mine's so scared she's completely lost...er, whatever it is she needs to 'play' me.

[pottershotter]

My mun's pretty sure you were supposed to get stuck in Wonderland ages ago. Something about her constantly nagging yours constantly or something like that.

B|

[emoteaspoon]

Oh. Erm. Mine says something about nagging yours about other things so why should she do your bidding...

Girls are weird.

[sweatertown]

Aren't you kinda the exception to that perfect rule, though? I mean, you killed a guy when you were a baby! I bet only like, three babies could do that! Ever!

[potteryourotter]

[Stare.]

That doesn't make me perfect. And which three babies could?

[sweatertown]

Hmmm.

Probably Teddy Roosevelt could. Have you ever read about that guy? He's like, invincible! Presidential baby powers is probably totally a thing anyway, I mean, I wouldn't be surprised after meeting President Trembley. Did you know we could have half-presidents?

...Oh, wait, you're British. Um. Okay, British example! Margaret Thatcher. I dunno if she was tough as a baby, but she was one tough broad as an adult! Haha, she could probably punch a dude's lights clean out. Oh, Madge.

[potteryourotter]

[He...what.]

Yeah, sure, she might have been able to. [Yeah, Harry will just agree to everything she says.]

[sweatertown]

Yeah! Ssooooo. You're totally a special dude and all kinds of perfect!

[pottershotter]

Harry?

[STARE.]

...This is going to be bizarre. But, you know. In a good way!

[potteryourotter]

Hi...er.... [Dad? James? WHAT CALL?] ...James?

[The awkward has already started.]

That's for sure. I mean, it'll be really nice to finally meet you and everything, but I'm not sure about the whole...erm, first name basis with a younger version of my dad?

[pottershotter]

Err, well. I've never really thought about it! I guess whichever one sounds better to you?

[Spoiler: This conversation will be ten thousand times more awkward and flail-y if/when Harry is actually in Wonderland.]

It's bound to confuse the hell out of everyone though. We're close enough in age right now that we'd probably look more like brothers!

[potteryourotter]

...I think it'd be kinda strange to call you "dad" at the age you are.

[Yes, well, I need a bit more confidence for Mr. Potter. :T]

It doesn't help that I look pretty much like you, but with mum's eyes. [God the amount of times people keep SAYING that....]

[greeneyedoe]

I think it'd be more strange than nice to know your dad as a teenager. [ She's speaking in general, but oh the irony. ]
