I have added the Medical Examiner to the character sheet. I figured this could be a good place to keep all characters involved. Maybe find a picture of Joel and add him there as well? We can just use it as a place to save all reusable / continued NPC's for safe keeping.

The drive over featured little in the way of small talk. Between Devin's hangover requiring no music and Harper lost in her own thoughts it was an oddly quiet ride. Still neither seemed to complain as they parked the car next to the massive high rise building on 5th named so creatively the Fifth Avenue Apartments. The normally busy central park street was slowed to a crawl due to everyone slowing down to see why so many police cars were parked out front.

Getting out and walking towards the ever mysterious yellow tape Devin did a quick scan by the tech team and saw a big 183 on the side of the truck. A massive sigh of relief washed over him. Mia was positioned with another team and wouldn't be working this scene. The off chance of her working or covering for someone was slim considering her role, but he felt the likelihood of a 'Why did we break up?' conversation was low now.

Fortune favored Devin, but forgot about Harper. After his own slightly selfish relaxation he caught sight of his partners ex. Joel and Devin never saw eye to eye, nor had they ever squared off. Devin figured it was male ego that caused them to butt heads as it always seemed to be a competition between the two. Devin was perfectly happy with how competitive he was and it even helped that Harper had a touch of the needtowinitis. It made them better detectives after all, but the competitive nature of Devin and Joel made him feel like he was back in middle school.

"I really need to get drunk."

Devin turned back to his partner after she let her inner thoughts escape. Before he could pounce on what was clearly an opportunity to help Harper get out of her dating rut another tiger was already on it.

"That we can make happen." Jordan said with a big smile. "But you will need heels and a dress, cause when I go out I don't buy my own drinks." The woman who said it was none other than their favorite medical examiner Jordan Hennessy. This immediately made Devin a lot happier. He always loved it when they got to work with Jordan; primarily because she was a complete flirt like him and it was always a nice ego boost.

"Jordan!" Devin said with a happy tone. "I thought Mia said you were on vacation for the next few weeks. Something about a sunny island and a cabana boy?" The three of them walked towards the dead body which seemed to be the doorman of the apartment building.

"Things change my cabana boy in training." Jordan said with a sly smile. "Was this conversation with Mia before or after she asked you to meet her parents?" She then gave what could be only described as a humorously sly look at Devin. Something that she and Harper enjoyed almost as much as solving cases was making fun of Devin's love life. More than a few times their tag teaming made him have to tap out.

I am planning to organize the approved character sheets tomorrow so no need to post them yourself.

Like a broken record Devin thought as his partner gave the same advice again and again. He figured he would get that answer, but didn't have the energy this morning to yet again explain that he in no way was recommending his partner actually date. My sister used to just go on a date cause she was expecting to be hungry for goodness sake.

"Detective Johnson these are tax player provided police issued equipment." Devin said in a loud voice so those around could hear. He then spoke normally "Besides I made that mistake as a cadet. They are not forgiving with the activities you are referring to." He then gave a silly wink and added "They may be cliche but the ones with the pink cuffs are actually surprising comfy. Haven't had any complaints since I got them. I think someone left them after last years Halloween party."

"Morning Captain!" Devin said as the man walked past them and gave them their instructions. He smiled as Harper asked if he wanted to drive. "I might have to. People honk less when I drive." He said but he didn't grab the keys. Instead he looked at his phone and then frowned. There wasn't a text or call from Mia which could mean any number of things. Mia was the crime scene tech that he had been sort of dating for the past while but ended things a few days ago.

"Crap.." He said with a sigh. The fact that there was no text more than likely meant her team was working the scene and she was just waiting for him to arrive so she can ask yet again what went wrong. Needless to say it was not something that he wanted to do. Nothing went wrong until she asked if he wanted to meet her parents. Why is everyone always wanting relationships to move forward? Why can't people just be happy with them being fun?

The two made their way to the elevator and started to ride it down to the garage where the units vehicles were parked. "But seriously my hangover wont survive your driving. Let me get the keys." Devin said.
Welcome Faculty of Hogwarts 2020




For this role play we will be having our story take place in the current year (2020)That said there is some time travel involved so the secondary timeline (where a large part of the role play will take place) will be in 2010. If my math is off a little let me know and I can make a correction. Since the 2000's there has been a massive moment of modernizing magic. Robes have begun to fall out of fashion and overall the magical world is letting the muggle world start to blend in. Fashion, music, and others but the actual communities are still mostly oblivious to each other.

Each of our characters are part of a new crop of professors at Hogwarts that were brought on at the personal request of the brand new Headmaster. Not much is known about the new Headmaster save for that he is rather odd and at times very care free. We now make up the youngest teaching staff that Hogwarts has ever had.The Headmaster has our backs and has simply told us to have one goal. Make lessons fun. This seem to come as no surprise to the very few people that knew the Headmaster. Apparently he has always been a rather eccentric man, who never taught at Hogwarts, and yet seems to have already gained more appreciation and knowledge of the school than anyone else.

This role play will start just before the new school year with a teachers meeting and then a quick time leap roughly 1 month into the first year at a similar meeting for the students first visit to Hogsmeade. During this meeting there will be a commotion which will gather us to the same location and launch us into the main part of the role play and back to the year 2010.

I am happy to answer any questions you might have, but please note that I have not COMPLETELY mapped out this entire idea. This is on purpose as I really am looking forward to this transforming and becoming our story. I am very interested in everyone helping build the story together as well as collaborate with each other, myself, and the world to create something we are excited and engaged in. I also want to note that I would rather this role play create, engage, and discover new aspects of the Harry Potter world and not anchor itself into the books and characters from the past.

[color=ee82ee]While not guaranteed, below is a list of the possible roles people may select. Should you want to lay claim or 'dibs' on a character you are free to request so. Once you post interest in a character you will have 3 days to return a basic draft of a character or the role will be released and open to the next person interested. Please review the character sheet as it does provide details.

“Thanks!” Devin said with a smile. He then expected to be hit with some schmear, but it never game. Even though it was a naked bagel he bit into it and stood up as the conversation naturally went to his current attire.

“Harper these are what good looking and good at their jobs men wear when they go out.” He spun which earned a joking whistle from one of the beat cops. Devin pointed at them and laughed. “Besides, in your case.” Devin then nodded to her choice in foot wear. “The only thing spectacular is you’ve found a way to piss off both fashion and PETA.”

The two continued to banter here and there as work started to really kick in. Devin talked baseball out loud to anyone within ear shot for some time and then mentioned his night out last night. “O that reminds me!” He then popped up in his chair and suddenly had the posture of a schoolboy pretending to be proper.

“James asked about you again. Am I still playing defense for you or should I finally tell him you are single again?” Devin smiled just as the schoolboy would after having gotten away with something. James had been pining for a date with Harper since they first met a year ago. The crush had been harmless, but now that there was a reality due to Harper being single things were changing. Devin didn't ask about the break up. He didn't really have to considering how well rumors and facts fly around the office. They talked here and there about it but more often than not she just deflected.

“I mean It has been a few weeks at this point Harper. Might be time to jump back in the dating saddle.” He then lowered his voice. “Especially since… its been like... a month?” Devin simply made a few wide eye looks as if to say "It is time to start listening to me because I know what I am talking about looks.

“Also the whole one of us dating and the other note really doesn’t work for me. It is starting to make me depressed.”

Devin had leaned back in his chair and started to toss a baseball up and down when his partner started to get ready for the day. Several of the uniform officers had watched her after she got off the elevator. With another toss of the baseball he caught it and sat back up in his chair and leaned towards his partner. "I will have you know that I am perfectly sane. All the voices in my head told me." He then stood up and sat on Harper's desk.

Pursing the folders on her desk he found what he was looking for. He pushed open the file and started signing his name next to Detective Johnson. It was an old trick that cops could do when working with a partner. One person does a report and then both sign it. Devin did it every time his partner was made the primary so this wasn't out of the ordinary for him. Plus it saves him hours each case.

"Bout 7:15" He said answering her follow up on what time he got in. It was a little early for him as he normally was in around 8, but considering he basically came straight from his friends apartment he knew he couldn't go home. Looking at his partner he then at himself he realized he might need to go to his emergency clothes.

Having gone to a rather expensive restaurant and lounge afterwards Devin looked like a classic case of male walk of shame. his white shirt was buttoned and he had his favorite baseball cuff links. The blue sports jacket matched well with his grey dress pants and brown shoes, but everything was in a perfect stat of 'I wore these while I slept on a couch' look with wrinkles.

Devin liked his partner. They had good arrest records and both seemed to care about getting the bad guy. The only points of real friction were when the nitty-gritty as he called it started to make them but heads. Harper called them rules and regulations that the higher ups expected to be done while Devin was more of a push it up the ladder guy.

Devin's stomach suddenly growled and he looked up at his partners desk one more time. "Did your mom pack you a lunch again?" He asked with an actual fun but serious tone. "I didn't get breakfast and that home made muffin from last week was great." he started going through her things and desk with the confidence of having done this before even though he knew she wasn't always thrilled by him doing so.
