[OOC] We carry on, wands at the ready.

Draco x Luna & Harry x Hermione

So far we've decided upon Harry, Hermione, Luna, Neville, Ginny and Draco returning to Hogwarts post-war to finish their education. The Ministry of Magic is monitoring things while McGonagall is Headmistress. Draco, needing to pay for his crimes, has become alienated from his old friends and must figure out what he wants out of life, now that he is on his own. Meanwhile, Ron has stayed away from the castle to help his family out. Luna and Hermione decide to start a Hogwarts newsletter to help bond the Houses together after the war. Soon others join, including Draco and Ginny. Luna wants experience for when she takes over the Quibbler and the school could use a distraction from the rules and dull life that's settled over the school.

We ought to start things off maybe a few weeks after the start of term?

That we can have Hermione and Luna finalizing the prep for the paper and getting those on board for their first edition, I assume it could be a monthly thing? Or every two weeks? We'll also need a name, unless we stick to something simple like Hogwarts Times.

[Camille Noir]

Yes, I was thinking a few weeks after the start of term too.

I think monthly makes sense for a brand new school paper. Usually as far as names go, school newsletters incorporate the colors or make a play on what the mascot is. I was trying to work that angle to come up with something else, but Hogwarts has too many of both so... Since it's a newsletter, I think Hogwarts Times is okay

[Genkai]

Alright then, that works for me. *nods* Do you think we should get cracking or talk a bit more before jumping in?

[Camille Noir]

Well, we have enough to start with, but I also can't help but notice that even though we set up something with everyone individually, and even a little something with Hermoine and Luna or Harry and Ginny, we didn't actually establish something to intertwine Draco x Luna and Harry x Hermoine. I mean, it might not even be needed, but I thought I'd bring it up just in case.

[Genkai]

I figure once the ice was broken with the newspaper, the pairs would start to work more closely together (H&H and D&L). Harry and Hermione would be close already thanks to their history, and while Draco doesn't have any friends, I would think Luna is still a bit of an outcast, it's not a stretch to give them a nudge to befriend one in another. Unless you're thinking about actual specific interactions, we would need to talk further about what they would actually do, yeah.

[Camille Noir]

Ah, okay. That works well. I'd say we can get started, then, and talk about specifics later

[Genkai]

Alright, I'll be able to get something up tonight. Did we say how much we'd generally be posting?

[Camille Noir]

Yeah, I think I'd said something like 4-5 paragraphs. That's usually pretty average for me. Sometimes I might spontaneously have more but I never really go under 3.

[Genkai]

Great, same here. I won't have to chop my posts shorter then. *laughs*

[Camille Noir]

Just so you know what's up, between my crappy computer and the general glitchiness of this website lately, I've been have some issues getting onto the website lately, but it really only comes and goes so it's just a minor inconvenience. That being said, I'm spending the day out all day tomorrow and Friday with some friends, so responses will likely come either late at night or early in those days. :)

[Genkai]

Life's been busy suddenly but right when it calmed down, the site is also giving me issues. It seems to have settled down for the time being so I'll try and get something up shortly. I'm just job hunting so I don't see anything taking me away suddenly.

[Camille Noir]

No problem. I'm pretty much in a similar situation actually, so I understand.

[Genkai]

Working on a post now.

[Camille Noir]

Hello! I'm so sorry. I went to stay with my sister for the past few days while my parents were out of the country. Stupidly, I left my laptop, thinking that I would just be able to use her computer, but as it turns out she had broken it. I attempted to log on by phone to let everybody know, but as it turns out, it's even more impossible to access this site by mobile device than it has been by computer as of late.

[Genkai]

The site has been in trouble but I think most of the issues have been cleared up, glad to hear from you though! Hopefully you enjoyed your visit.

[Camille Noir]

That's a relief to know, then! Thanks, I did enjoy it overall. I'm starting an IC post now.

[Genkai]

Awesome!

[Camille Noir]

Phew! I hope that it turned out okay because that was the third try.

[Genkai]

It looks good to me.

[Genkai]

I hope life is going well for you, just checking in.
