[it's a typical day. Percy is hanging out when he catches a reflection in the mirror]

What's that? [and then he notices his own body]

What is THAT? [the girl voice does not help matters. At all]


[the loss begins. very open]

Not on purpose.

[ James is still impressed. ] But you blew up a volcano!

Merlin, my sixteen year old self would've killed to have seen that. [ Lie. His twenty-one year old self would kill to see that. ] How did you manage that?

[he really shouldn't be proud of this :x]

I don't remember much about it. And I wouldn't ever do it again. I kinda almost died.

[ James quickly changes his tune, then. Having fun at the expense of dying? Not good. Not good at all. ] Merlin, that sounds a bit horrific. Dying isn't that great. [ Not that James quite knows whether he's died or not. Or has come to the fact that he is, indeed, classified as 'deceased' in his time. Oi. ;/ ] You a witch, by chance?

[Percy makes a face, but then he remembers Harry's world] No, but I'm guessing you're a wizard. I'm more like, um... what's in between a Muggle and a wizard?

[it's the best simile he can think of]

[ He thinks for a moment ] A squib?

[makes another face. That's too close to the word "squid" for his taste]

No. Like... if a non-magic person and a magic person had a kid, what would you call them?
