Having had a proper look around, everything that people have said on here either is something very, very important and likely needs to be said or is someone trying to live their lives. To tell you the truth, I don't actually know what 'living your lives' here means yet, but so far, I'm starting to have a starker view on things. Or, well, I've affirmed my belief that having a starker view is normal. We are at war, after all.

But it's because of that that I haven't said much yet myself. I don't really know where to begin. I mean, beyond 'hello' and that didn't seem like it was good enough. 'Hello, I'm Harry Potter'. Right. None of you lot would even care about that. So, in an attempt to not come up with rubbish like that, I started writing down questions. They aren't any good, but I figure it's as good of a place to start than anything else. So I'll get on with that.

1. Does anyone here like the gods? I mean, beyond a few who like their noble sacrifices and the like. Trust me, I can see how that's appealing. And is there a difference between liking and relying on them? I actually wrote about six different variations of this down. It seems to be a thing that comes up a lot—blaming them for things, I mean.

2. Why do I have such a rubbish power?

3. How do I learn how to fight because my power is so rubbish? These usually go hand in hand, you know. They made it onto my list about four times each.

4. If you've met the giants, were they all the same? There's a part of me that's resistant to things being black and white, but I know this isn't a good time to propose that. Then again, it took me a very long time to see that myself.

There are ... more, you know. Questions. But I might look for them myself.

Though writing all this has suddenly made me remember doing homework.

Could teach the lot here couldn't we? Least about it, I mean.

I've already told a couple people, but I'd bet that the more who know, the more that'll want to play, and then we'll have a lot of people being unable to play.

If only we'd ended up with Malfoy's power.

Muggles find ways to do these sort of things, right? Maybe we can figure out a way, too.

Why? What's his?

We can't really play quidditch in airplanes, though. I mean, we could, but I don't think it'd be a very good idea. Loads of potential explosions.

And his power is flying. I don't know why he ended up with it. Compared to me, he's not a very good flyer.

[masterofmystery]

Yeah, well, those things don't look safe any anyway. Probably for the best.

Maybe it's cause he's got a big head. Not like the rest of our powers make much sense here.
