Hells Bells...

...why do there have to be computers? If I was going to be teleported to some brave new world, why does it have to be filled with these techy things? My magic doesn't jive with computers...or anything based on microchips. Since I have to use these things, I'll have to learn to keep my magic in check so I don't fry a motherwhatsit. It's straining me right now, though, since I'm not used to it.

So before I fry this terminal I'm on, I thought I'd say hi, since I'm new here. My name is Harry Dresden, private detective, professional wizard and Warden of the White Council...not that that means anything here, I guess. Strange to find out I'm a character in a series of wildly popular books, but nothing should surprise me anymore. I'll admit I miss Chicago, and especially Bob right now. I bet he'd have some answers.

I will say the group of people...and I use the term loosely...here looks colorful, to say the least. Upside is, it's a whole new world of folks I haven't pissed off, killed or blown up yet. Uh oh the goes termin bett crap

backwards slide? what am I missing here?

[ex_wells219]

A chequered history of misdeeds and misfortune! Um but nothing really, it's okay.

[wizardresden.livejournal.com]

Oh?

[ex_wells219]

Maybe it's better to ask Jonathan about this, I mean I guess if he thinks he's cool with coming into contact with magic then uh it's cool with me too!

[magicbone]

I won't do it if you think it's a bad idea.

[ex_wells219]

I don't think it's a bad idea if you don't think it's a bad idea!

Indecision doesn't work well with magic, you know.

[ex_wells219]

Indecision doesn't work well with a lot of things. Don't wig, I'm pretty sure this goes in the dictionary under "trust".

[magicbone]

I don't know if I think it's a bad idea or not though.

[ex_wells219]

Then it's probably a bad idea.

[magicbone]

probably.

um can I come over tonight?

[misskittyclaws.livejournal.com]

Magical misdeeds, huh. Do tell.

[ex_wells219]

Instead of asking these questions, I'm going to refer you to Doctor Cox re: taking me seriously.

[wizardresden.livejournal.com]

I'm curious too, but he seems like a nice kid.

[misskittyclaws.livejournal.com]

That he does. So, exactly what kind of wizardry are we talking, here?

[wizardresden.livejournal.com]

Mine? Usually finding loss objects, thaumaturgy (manipulation of magical and natural energies), summoning spells, fire and wind magic are my specialties. Why?

[misskittyclaws.livejournal.com]

Just curious. Don't have particularly fond memories of magic users back home.

[wizardresden.livejournal.com]

Oh? Might I ask what happened?

[giantego]

OH GOD DON'T GET HIM STARTED.

[misskittyclaws.livejournal.com]

I probably don't want to know anyway.

[giantego]

You really, really, reheheheeeeeeally don't.

[wizardresden.livejournal.com]

What are you talking about?

[giantego]

Oh hi welcome to the aquarium blah blah blah I'm Dr. Perry Cox and I've had to sit through so many of Elle's (Andrew's) stories that my ears actually bled. I'm sparing you, man. Be grateful.

[wizardresden.livejournal.com]

Hi, and thanks. You're a doctor? Do you have any experience with rehabilitation?

[giantego]

I've got rehab under my belt. Or is that not the kind you're talking about? Be more specific, nerd fodder.
