    Who's been playing? What do you think? Are you going to keep playing?

    Will there be any future repercussions for whether or not Penny took the Forgetfulness Potion? Will Ben's anxiety disorder ever improve? And, most importantly, will we get to make our characters gay??

    anyway,

    for some reason HP:HM doesn't let you use 'Tara' as a first name, which means I can't be Tara Gillesbie, but fortunately Raven Way is allowed *thumbs up!*

    I just named my character after myself :P But just a more English last name.

    I am currently about halfway through third year. I stopped playing for a while because I lost interest. I just started again this evening (have to have something to do during my night shift :P)

    I'm surprised it was entertaining enough during your night shift, considering that you can use up all the possible energy in literally less than a minute after waiting over two hours for it to recharge :P

    I have occasional things to do during the night shift, like see ER patients, or answer nurse questions over the telephone, so I didn't stare at it the whole time :P

    I am currently doing the animagus quest. I really want to become an animagus!

    I'm doing it too! It feels a bit Mary Sue to offer it, but then again, people will want this to be the full whatever-you-could-possibly-hope-to-do-at-Hogwarts experience...what animal are you going to pick?

    I have not gotten that far yet, but probably a cat. To be cool like McGonagalm

    nah. Totally isn't.

    I totally finished the quest though! :D Am now a very fetching tuxedo kitty <3

    lol i was just about to edit mine to say so
    it did seem not-quite-right, because the foreshadowing was that he was an Animagus, but I was thinking, loner who assumes he can't have friends; what looks like a "wolfish" design (though I get that it's supposed to be suggestive of the falcon now); possibly wishes he had Animagus friends, a la Remus Lupin? But can't become an Animagus himself because werewolf?
    I wasn't surprised to find out that I was wrong, though.
    Congratulations though! I'm a ways away...still hoping to finish the crest challenge and get that hair, though. (I don't even like it, I'm just stubborn.) I'm pissed that they made them overlap.
    oh for sHIT'S SAKE!! I just finished the five-star potions class, which was the first thing I'd gotten to do that helped along both rapidly-coming-to-a-close challenges, and now I have an eight-hour five-star NOT-A-CLASS to do?! I mean, it's with Penny and I love Penny (my MC has a huge gay crush on her), but seriously?!

    I don't really care about the crest challenges tbh. I am not really one of those people who goes for the dressing up

    I am very annoyed that the duelling club side quest isn't opening to me for some reason. It keeps saying the duelling club is closed -_-

    I spent the last week working on the quest that gives you the toad at the end. I really would prefer to have a cat as a pet, and am a bit annoyed that that is not the prize, but I suppose it would be weird to have a cat as a pet when you're an animagus cat :P

    ETA: I have 5 hours to go on the quest and five more crests to earn, should be doable!

    @Emma did you manage it? :)
    I already had a toad, so I just got the brightly-coloured skin. It's not really worth it, I think I just completed it out of, like. Stubbornness or something. (There's a word I'm looking for here, and it's not 'obstinacy', nor is it exactly 'sheer bloodymindedness', but it's along those lines, just milder and more inconsequential.) And I have all four pets, which means I'm a bird Animagus with a bird pet...

    But, more importantly! The icon art and loading art has changed. It's now all scary and dramatic! Everyone is facing a werewolf!!

    This is making me suspect that whether or not Penny drank the potion will in fact become relevant to the plot...

    I got so annoyed with all the side quests that didn't further my story (all the challenges that you could win stuff with that take so ffing long to complete that I would need to play constantly) that I haven't played in a while. I am now a fourth year though which is reasonably cool.

    Penny is so freaking cute and I love her as a character and my MC loves her as much more than that and Let MC Be A Dyke 2k5ever :toot:

    New Christmas-themed art demonstrates cuteness. Unfortunately, I can't upload it because my phone is having difficulty, but it is cute.

    I've started playing and I'm about...canonically, two days in, I think? Slightly after the first potions class. So it's probably not a good sign that the plot is straining my suspension of disbelief hard already.

    Otherwise known as "what the pants-shitting Christ, Malva?!" Considering that the school year opened with "hey, Harry Potter survived just fine, he'll be attending Hogwarts one day", this is perhaps not the era where firstie Slytherins from wizarding-born families want to be acting like they're gunning to be the next Dark Lady on the first day of class. Also, why does anyone care that I lost ten points on the first day? And why is everyone so fucking obsessed over my brother, who apparently got expelled as a third-year for daring to be out of bounds?

    Like, I get that this is supposed to be the wish-fulfillment "you are the most special Mary Sue, it's you" game, but. They're being extremely heavy-handed with it.

    Also, they're expecting me to believe that Severus Fucking Snape, in an era where he's already feared by incoming first-years who have never met him, is going to put up with anyone fucking around with the potions on purpose, much less deliberately sabotaging another student in such a way that the cauldron blows up. (Much less one of his Slytherins being that completely unsubtle.)

    Anyways, I'm going for the "tell Dumbledore" option for "what're you going to do about the fact that she shoved you in a room full of Devil's Snare" because what the pants-shitting Christ, Malva, that's attempted murder at best. If Hagrid tries to talk me out of it, I'm going to be Disappointed in him.

    @turtleDove it's funny, I barely remember most of that... except when Andre is quizzing you during Meal with a Friend and asks when you bought new clothes, and the answer is after the Devil's Snare.

    I didn't realise (well, forgot) that Jacob only made it to his third year; I thought he was there longer than that. And MC breaks a shitload of rules, not just being out of bounds, and doesn't get expelled. (Hope that doesn't count as a spoiler. It's kind of implied that it's going to be a theme, I guess.)

    Checking the wiki page about him: apparently it's not specified how old he was when he was expelled. You've just been there, though; did it say specifically that it was his third year? Also, the reason he was so talked-about was because of the rumours of the curses he unleashed on the school during his search for the Vaults; he was expelled for more than just being out of bounds, and his expulsion was reported in the news, as was his disappearance, presumably because of the implications of the idea that someone who wreaked so much havoc with Dark Magic while still a kid might join the remaining supporters of the Dark Lord.

    You are not wrong about the Mary Sue thing going overboard, though. I don't like that aspect too much. I wanted to just go through Hogwarts as a normal student while also being gay.

    Editing to add - what language are you playing in? Malva is called Merula in mine. I like the name Malva much better, though, since Merula is just awkward to pronounce... is it MARE-oo-lah? Meh-RUE-lah? Mer-you-la, perhaps, or Mare-you-la?
