AN: Hi! Unknownwolf gave me another story thingy! WOO! BTW It happens in homestuck time bits and the events of POA happened before the exams and stuff, like in February at the latest.
A young boy sat in his room, his name was Harry Potter the Boy-Who-Lived… It was April, but he was at the Dursley house, since he had been sent home from Hogwarts early due to all the chaos… He turned to the computer he had been given, it wasn't the newest but it was pretty good, fairly new, up to date, actually worked since Dudley shoved it into his room and left without a word… It was better than the one in the cupboard anyway, that thing was a hunk of junk! He grinned, turning it on and preparing to go on the internet to check something.
Brrpt!
Oh? it looked like one of his chums was pestering him!
{unknownWolf [UW] began pestering secretSlytherin [SS]}
UW: Hey Harry! *Smiles happily*
SS: Hey yourself
UW: So… Did it arrive?
SS: How should I know?
SS: It'ss not like I wasss the one that paid for the sssssstupid thing ssssssssssssso that I could play it…
UW: Calm down
SS: Sorry
SS: But Dudley's gotten his parents to let him play it.
SS: Luckily they're out at the moment so if it gets here I'll know.
UW: Check your window?
SS: One sec then.
He looked away from his computer to check the window and… Hey! There was a box sitting near the front door! That's a really bad idea, how are you meant to know it's safe?
SS: A green box is at the door.
UW: That should be it! *Grins excitedly*
SS: Give me a minute to go grab it. Be right back.
He got up and quickly, but carefully, headed down the stairs, opening the door and getting the box quickly, and then going back up the stairs.
UW: Did you get it? *Very excited*
SS: I got the box. I haven't opened it yet.
SS: Calm down for just a second will you?
UW: Ok…
UW: I can't.
SS: That was a second I guesssssssssss
UW: You leaned on the S key again didn't you? *Gives a questioning glance*
SS: Shut up.
SS: Shut up.
SS: I'm opening the ssstupid box.
He grumbled as he fumbled on the edges of the box, finding it difficult to open until he found a convenient flap he could stick his finger in to open it… And presto! One open box! Inside was… Score! Just what he was hoping for!
SS: It's here!
UW: Yes!
SS: You got your copy yet?
UW: No.
UW: Mom took it until after breakfast.
UW: And sunrise.
SS: It's almost eight in the afternoon.
UW: Timezones Harry!
UW: I live in Japan remember?
SS: I forget that sometimes.
SS: What time is it for you?
UW: It's like… *Checks time* Three in the morning…?
SS: You forgot to sleep again didn't you?
UW: Maybe…
SS: Get some sleep
SS: We'll play later
UW: Okay… *Yawns*
UW: Later Harry…
SS: Later Che
UW: Oh! Before I go, you figured out your sylladex yet?
SS: Haven't had the time.
UW: Which one do you use?
SS: Map
UW: Oh
UW: Why don't you try it out? And don't forget to set your specibus!
SS: My what?
UW: Ask TT
{unknownWolf [UW] ceased pestering secretSlytherin [SS]}
She was so mysterious… Nah, she was just adorkable. Now, how in the name of the founders did you set your specibus? And what in the name of Merlin's pants was a specibus? "Ugh… Lets think… My sylladex is meant to do… Something… I don't remember what, but the manual should!" He realised, grabbing it.
"Thank you for buying the map modus… Blah blah blah… Fully customizable… Whatever… Ah, here it is! To retrieve an item from the modus simply press your hand against it while wishing to retrieve it or think about it, note that the none-physical method requires mental strength as to not retrieve the wrong item…" He read, skimming through the manual, and then reading another bit.
"To store items simply touch whatever you wish to store to the map and it shall be stored inside of it. You can also simply wish to store it, which is much easier but more likely to put the item somewhere difficult to locate… Activation may vary based on modifications…" He nodded, before pulling out a map made of parchment, pressing his wand to it. "Ego levavi manum meam ut Im 'non usque ad bona…" He hissed out, trying to cut off any hisses as he spoke the password in parseltongue, the language of the snakes… The map activated as soon as he said it, causing a map of the area to appear, a few little tabs with labels on them to other locations, there was also another tab that had a card on it, he pulled it to see a ton of empty cards, while at the same time a row of cards appeared at the bottom of his vision… "Weird…" He grabbed the manual with an idle hand, watching a copy of the manual appear in all of the cards on the row, he placed it on a card the map showed and blinked as the manual appeared in the first card on the left in his row, before he closed the map, rubbing his eyes. "Merlin's pants…" He muttered.
Brrpt!
Another chum was pestering him?
{tentacleTherapist [TT] began pestering secretSlytherin [SS]}
TT: Hello Harry.
SS: Hey.
TT: UK mentioned you didn't know what a specibus was
SS: I figured out my modus but I've got no clue what a specibus is
TT: It's your weapon of choice.
TT: By the way, have you spoken to EB?
SS: No
SS: Why?
TT: Check the day
SS: Oh!
SS: It's his birthday isn't it?!
TT: Correct
TT: You forgot didn't you?
SS: No!
SS: Yessssssssssss
TT: Why not use a drone?
SS: Over the ocean?
SS: I'll ask GG if she knows how I can get a present for him without having to wait for it to arrive, I don't want to take ages.
TT: She does know many things.
SS: Yeah
SS: So how do I specibus?
TT: Do you have a weapon near you?
He frowned, looking at a crossbow Hagrid had made for him.
SS: I have a crossbow
SS: Made by a friend
TT: That'll do
TT: Captchalogue it.
SS: What?
TT: Store it
SS: Ah.
He grabbed the crossbow and put it into the map
SS: Now what?
TT: Now place it in your strife deck.
SS: my what?
TT: What modus do you use?
SS: Map
TT: Then trace a line from the card to the card that has smaller cards on the bottom.
SS: Oh. That
He did so, seeing the crossbow vanish.
TT: Did you do it?
SS: Yeah
SS: It just vanished
TT: It's now in your strifedeck.
TT: You're now the proud owner of crossbowkind
SS: Can I use another thing as well as crossbow?
TT: Yes
TT: As a secondary weapon
TT: Why?
SS: Just wondered.
He grinned, putting his wand into it, there was no way for him to lose it now!
TT: You just did something didn't you
SS: Yep
TT: Are you going to tell me what?
SS: Uhhhhno
TT: Alright.
SS: What did you guys get him?
TT: I'm still working on mine.
TT: It's an old bunny I've had since I was a child
TT: I've been patching it up since he got me that knitting set
SS: Dawwww
TT: What are you doing?
SS: It's adorable
SS: It's like when a kid gives their younger sibling a toy they've treasured for years.
TT: Ok
TT: That is nice
SS: What did TG get him?
TT: I believe he got him the bunny from Con air.
SS: That's pretty smart
SS: Dorks obsessed with that movie
TT: GG's probably planning something.
SS: I guess, hey
TT: Yes?
SS: You mind if I go ask GG if she's got any ideas on how to ah…?
TT: Not at all Harry
TT: I'll speak to you later, I hear you have the game?
SS: Yep.
SS: I kinda promised I'd be UW's server player
SS: Che's been really looking forwards to this
TT: Acceptable.
TT: Until next time.
SS: Until next time.
{tentacleTherapist [TT] ceased pestering secretSlytherin [SS]}
Harry quickly pestered another of his chums.
{secretSlytherin [SS] began pestering gardenGnostic [GG]}
SS: Hey
GG: Hi Harry!
SS: I need some help
GG: Yeah?
SS: EB.
SS: Kinda forgot.
GG: You want to know how to get a present to him?
SS: Yeah.
GG: Do you have one?
Harry looked around the room, grabbing a stuffed owl toy and putting it in a box which he then wrapped and put a label on.
SS: Yep
GG: Ok, put it on your bed
SS: Ok…
He did so, unsure what she was planning until the box vanished with an –ify!
SS: Where did it go
GG: What?
SS: It jusssssssst vanisssssssssssssshed!
GG: Don't worry! It'll get too him soon!
GG: Bye!
SS: Bye
{secretSlytherin [SS] ceased pestering gardenGnostic [GG]}
He frowned, wondering where it had gone… Hopefully it was ok…
In another land…
