Merry Christmas everyone!

I'm Sirius, one of the two lovely wizards around here. Next month is the big opening of our magic shop, but today I speak on behalf of something, someone else.

See this lovely lady?

[He turns the device until it shows the moving photograph of Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, how she's smiling and waving rather untypically at the camera.]



She currently doesn't have a date for New Year's Eve! It's bad enough to spend Christmas alone or, well, in the company of a drunkenly depressed friend with an odd sense of humour, but how can a gorgeous woman like that be alone for New Year's?

It'd be a crime, I'm sure you agree. She is called Anita, she can probably kick your arse the way she'll kick mine if she catches me for this, she is, as you can see, absolutely gorgeous. Add wit and charm to that and anyone who's not snatched up yet should be going after her!

However, needless to say, there are some requirements. For one, she only wants males. I'm sorry, ladies, I've been trying to convince her! For another, obviously you should be good-looking and charming and witty yourself.

She might go for the bad boys, just a bit, but doesn't everyone?

Come on, blokes, tell me if you're interested and if you meet my approval, I might be able to help set something up.

[OOC: ...marauder is doing marauding things, I suppose. Needless to say, Anita doesn't know he's doing this. That's what makes it fun.]

That was generally the idea, yes.

[alwaysimpure]

Glad we can agree on this.

So, how do you know Anita?

[Video]

[dontmindmepleasecontinue]

We met under the mistletoe several days ago. Then I bought her lunch and we had a long, mostly metaphysical discussion.

[Video]

[alwaysimpure]

Sounds passionate.

[Video]

[dontmindmepleasecontinue]

You could describe it that way.

How about you?

[Video]

[alwaysimpure]

I think the first time was when we discussed magic. That and she read about me.

[dontmindmepleasecontinue]

Right, of course. Harry Potter.

I'm afraid to say I never got past the third book.

[Video]

[alwaysimpure]

Yes, my godson.

[He's proud.]

What happens in the third one?

[Video]

[dontmindmepleasecontinue]

That's the one where you break out of Azkaban when you realize Pettigrew is alive and at Hogwarts, living as your godson's best friend's rat. Lupin is working as the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.

[alwaysimpure]

...I knew that I break out.

[He did not know the rest. And suddenly he's filled with a lot of emotions.]

[He then realizes how hard this could be for Sirius - he's discussing his life, not just a book he read a few years back. His expression changes to show concern.]

Are you all right? I should have realized... I should have been more cognizant of your perspective on this.

[Video]

[alwaysimpure]

I'm fine.

Anyway. I have to go get Anita her coffee.

And buy rat poison.

[Video]

[dontmindmepleasecontinue]

Just in case?

Well, I wish you the best of luck. I'm certain we will see each other again.

[alwaysimpure]

It's therapeutic.

See you around.
