Case File 006: text. petulant, petulant text. forward dated to the afternoon.

[Well someone is at home sulking up a storm.]

Considering the rash of port-outs over the last few weeks, as we have endlessly been reminded of, I am interested in collecting any hard data that you happen to have on them. Therefore, name, approximate date and time of port out, relationship with poster, etc. Please also include whether or not you, or the person ported, have had any extra dealings with the Porter.


I am taking cases again. My new office is here: [the address of his house]. Interesting cases only.


To those that were sending case inquiries to my colleague John Watson: it will be necessary to forward them directly to me for the foreseeable future.

Of course it's important, he was your mate wasn't he?

[ Tonks shakes her head. ]

There's nothing that I can think of.

My colleague. [And that's about as much as he's going to say about that.]

Very well. I will simply have to find work elsewhere.

If anything of interest turns up, you know how to contact me.

Your colleague. Your mate. Your friend. Your co-worker. You can call him whatever you like. You'll miss him.

What do you consider interesting?

[identity profile] sh-consulting.livejournal.com 2012-01-05 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
If you insist.

Anything that would take me more than five seconds to solve. Unusual cases. Smart ones. No inane domestic murders or easily solved missing persons, or boring extra marital affairs.

I do.

How d'you feel about magic?

[identity profile] sh-consulting.livejournal.com 2012-01-06 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
Ambivilant. [And slightly bewildered by the abrupt change in topic.

Why?

[identity profile] fliesacomet260.livejournal.com 2012-01-06 01:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Why not? You don't like the mundane. Most people don't seem to think that magic is mundane.

[ Tonks shrugs. ]

[identity profile] sh-consulting.livejournal.com 2012-01-06 03:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Mundane it is not.

But neither does it follow any form of reason.

Don't be stupid. Of course it does.

[identity profile] sh-consulting.livejournal.com 2012-01-06 04:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[Did - did she just call him stupid? Yes, Yes she did.]

Considering that in order for it to exist, it requires breaking ever known law of physics - No, no it doesn't.

If you could provide a treatise detailing exactly how to reconcile magic with logic, then I will consider conceding the point. Until then, I see no reason to.

[ Technically speaking, no she hadn't! Technically... ]

Physics? Like you Muggles even have half of that sorted. Magic has rules, you know.

[identity profile] sh-consulting.livejournal.com 2012-01-06 04:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[CLOSE ENOUGH.]

No. I don't know. As in my universe it simply doesn't exist. And outside of imPorts, it doesn't exist here, either.

[identity profile] fliesacomet260.livejournal.com 2012-01-10 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
But inside, it does exist. I've not run into a spell yet that I can't perform here.
