I thought I would go to the Hall of the Missing today, if anyone would care to join me for the excursion. I will be there around seven. Thank you.

Charlie McGee asked me to get in touch with you in regards to providing fireworks for her wedding. Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes has an extensive selection, and I am certain we will be able to find something to suit the occasion.

action; the hall of the missing →

[It's around seven, as he'd said earlier in the day, and Percy is waiting outside the Hall of the Missing, coffee in hand to ward off the chill of the early evening. He checks his pocketwatch for the time, deciding he will give any potential companion another ten minutes before he goes in. He'd like to go alone, but he's not sure it's the wisest course of action, considering all the people he knows who will be in there. With someone else there, it will allow him to make it about them and shift his focus off himself.

In the meantime, he mentally sorts through his to-do lists for the next day, categorizing into City Solutions, the Wheezes, Passione, and home, and tries not to let himself feel the trepidation at how long each of them are.]

[And behold, his little sister turns up without any warning. She's got a thermos of hot chocolate and a small smile on her face; for all the madness happening in her life at the moment, Ginny will always find time for her family. And don't let anyone ever say otherwise.]

Thought we'd take a break from coffee today.

[aperfectthird]

For my refill, maybe.

[He holds up his cup in a toast.]

I'm glad you could make it.

[hexuality]

It's the Hall; like hell I'd let you go alone.

[aperfectthird]

I appreciate the company.

[He looks back towards the Hall.]

I've never been.

[hexuality]

I've been too often.

[She draws in a breath, looking over at the massive building.]

Why the sudden interest?

There's such a place here? Awesome! I'd like to help pick some out. Especially since I can light 'em at the wedding.

Also, I'll probably head to the Hall of the Missing, now that you brought it up. That place is kinda weird for me.

[aperfectthird]

The shop is located at [address], and it is open from noon to nine every day except Tuesday. Feel free to stop in at any time.

May I ask why it's 'weird?' Are there many people you know there?

locked to the same group;

[beyourarmy]

I think I will. You work there or something?

Yeah.... So for me, coming here for the first time, it was weird seeing them up there when I haven't run into them yet.

[aperfectthird]

I own it, in fact.

So - I'm sorry if I misunderstand your meaning, but if they have left the City before, but are currently here - they would be in the Hall?

Fireworks sound like a wonderful idea, Percy! Very festive. Especially if they're magical in nature; they'll fit with Merlin perfectly.

[aperfectthird]

They are magical, and they're very creative. Fred and George could be very ingenious when they weren't being juvenile delinquents.

[threeolives]

Your brothers, right? [ Someone's looked through the personnel files. ] Yes, I met them once. Quite... rambunctious.

[aperfectthird]

Rambunctious is a very ... kind word to use to describe them.

[fe_male]

[ That sounds a bit like asking anyone if they want to go out for a stroll in a cemetary just for fun, from what he's read about the place. ]

Any particular reason?

[aperfectthird]

I've never been, and I thought I'd pay my respects.

[fe_male]

Respects to who?

[aperfectthird]

My family and friends. There have been a fair amount of people here from my world, and I'd like to see them again.

Fireworks is a great idea! I can come by after work if you want, to see what you've got...

...and um...if you don't mind, I'd like to come with you to the Hall. I'm gonna go say hi to Eugene.

Wedding Filter;

[aperfectthird]

Certainly. We're open from noon to nine every day except Tuesday, and if you'd like me to stay after, I would be happy to.

And I would not be opposed to the company at all. Is seven all right for you?

Wedding Filter;

[tangledintower]

That sounds good to me! I can come over during one of my lunch breaks!

That works fine for me. Who are you going to go and see in the Hall, if you don't mind me asking?

Wedding Filter;

[aperfectthird]

Family and friends. There have been a fair number of people from my world who have gone from the City, and I would like to pay my respects.

[claimyourself]

That's the place that shows who used to be here, right?

[audio]

[aperfectthird]

That's it precisely.

[audio]

[claimyourself]

Have a lot of people you've known here left?

[audio]

[aperfectthird]

Nearly all of them.

[There's a tracing of real sadness below the words.]

I hope it's not the same for you.
