Ranting Lily! Beware!

[in_his_stead]

(Lily paints an interesting picture: there is a quill behind her ear and a pencil between her teeth.)

I like adventure just as much as the next girl, but this is bordering on mad. What do you mean you want to take me to a different world? It's difficult for me to even wrap my mind around the existence of another world. As far as I knew, there were only two (unless one counts the Afterlife).

(She blows out a long sigh.)

Tell me, will Harry or James or anyone familiar be in said new worlds? If not, I will have severe reservations about entering them and, truly, who could blame me?

What kind of other world are you going to?

[in_his_stead]

I doubt she even knows. (That's said before she realizes who she's talking to.) ...Harry? You're so - (Young. And adorable.) Did your Mun bring you here alone?

[thegreatergood]

There are a great many new worlds around here, Fraulein.

Your friends and family I have seen in many of them.

[in_his_stead]

So I have gathered, though I'm afraid I don't share your enthusiasm.

(She blinks and leans in closer.)

Who? Where?

[thegreatergood]

Harry and James Potter. Severus Snape. You know him, don't you?

[in_his_stead]

...yes, I...did. (Said tightly, of course.) Are Harry and James safe?

[thegreatergood]

From what I've seen of them, yes.

[in_his_stead]

And who might you be, sir?

[thegreatergood]

I am Gellert Grindelwald.

1/3

[in_his_stead]

...

2/3

[in_his_stead]

The...

3/3

[in_his_stead]

Grindelwald? (...wow.) As in the Dark Wizard Grindelwald?

[thegreatergood]

[He laughs, the sound quite pleasant, given his reputation.]

Yes, that would be me.

Pardon my knowledge of the future and yourself but I have met you before, in some form or another.

[in_his_stead]

(She's not sure how she feels about him knowing anything about her and her family. But what can she do?)

Do you intend on harming James and Harry? That's all I really need to know.

Have a bizarre AU in which Harry was raised as Dick Grayson.

[dickandharry]

Just be careful, because you could run into versions from bizarre alternate universes.

[in_his_stead]

...are you speaking from personal experience?

[dickandharry]

SPeaking from the experience of being from one of them, yeah.

[in_his_stead]

I must admit you do seem familiar.

[dickandharry]

That's probably because my eyes are green under this mask

[in_his_stead]

And I should be familiar with all people with green eyes?

[dickandharry]

When they're made up of roughly half of your genetic material, yeah.

[in_his_stead]

...Harry?

[dickandharry]

I go by Dick Grayson when I'm not wearing this and Robin when I am, but yeah. The Dursley's basically dumped me at a circus and moved to India almost immediately after I was dropped off at their house. I got adopted by a family of trapeze artists, hence the whole name change thing.

[acharmingsmile]

A pencil? Why, but that is the absolute worst thing to chew on~! [Gilderoy worries about the state of your teeth, Lily.]

[in_his_stead]

I'm not exactly chewing on it. (It's probably time to put it away now, huh?) Sorry about that.
