So bored. So here's a bunch of random, useless facts.

1) A higher mental I.Q. = more dreams.
2) Your hearing decreases as you overeat.
3) Babies always have blue eyes when they are born. Exposure to ultraviolet light and the production of melanin are required to bring it out.
4) For every human on Earth there are 1.6 million ants.
5) On Jupiter and Saturn it rains diamonds.
6) There are more fake flamingos in the world than real ones.
7) A banana is technically considered a berry.
8) Everyone has a unique tongue print, just like your fingerprint.
9) The northern leopard frog swallows its prey using its eyes — it uses them to help push food down its throat by retracting them into its head.

And lastly,
10)A sneeze can exceed 100 miles per hour. Holding it in isn't recommended, obviously.

Hopefully that's enlightened a lot of you, or given you something to do for five minutes.
Also, I want a puppy.

Okay, I hold in my sneezes all the time, so that last one is terrifying.

Never hold in a sneeze, Sals! It's a natural phenomenon!

Sure you can! Just let it go! Don't want your eyes popping out of your head, now do you?

I mean...no? Are those the only two options?

...The eyes popping out would be interesting though!

They're the only two options in Ellie world.

But then you couldn't see! It would be tragic.

Well, I'm rather a large fan of Ellie World.

That's very true. Fine, I guess I'll work on it.

It's a pretty okay place most days! It at least has a lot of chocolate and warm blankets.

I'll help! Remind you on a daily basis to let out those sneezes and the like.

Sounds like a deal!

Ellie world is all inclusive, obviously.

Excellent!

So... Ernie figured out who the ghost is, Sals.

It's just because you're awesome like that!

Oh? Who was it?

Aw. You're kind of awesome yourself, Sals.

[Sals]
Sally... It's Cedric.

Eh, just a fraction.

[Ellie]
Oh. That...that's really...upsetting.

[info]lovelybones_

Way more than that, love!

[Sals]
Yeah... I just.. I thought Cedric would have moved on.

And if he's just now appearing? How long as he been... wandering around? Afraid and alone? Thinking about it kills me.

If only you could see my face right now.

[Ellie]
Me too. Though, I guess...well, people are always saying that ghosts have unfinished business, right? It was all so sudden, according to Potter...

Right? I want- I dunno, maybe we can talk to him?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]lovelybones_
2015-11-09 01:48 am UTC (link)
Because it's adorable? Yes, it's a shame I'm not in view.

[Sals]
Yeah... I just hope we can help do something. Cedric doesn't deserve to just wander the halls of Hogwarts forever. He deserves peace.

Of course. If I see him again, that's the first thing I'm going to do.

[info]pl_sally

Sure, sure, lets go with that response!

[Ellie]
Hopefully, yeah. For now, just him knowing that we're here for him will maybe help a little.

I just...he was our hero, you know?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]lovelybones_
2015-11-10 01:05 am UTC (link)
Because it's the right one!

[Sals]
I completely agree with you.

I know, Sals. We owe it to him to do whatever we can to help.

Technically, as long as you didn't sever your optical nerve, you'd still be able to see. It would just be painful, and very blurry as your eyes would still be trying to consolidate the images recieved into one, but would be unable to because of the different angle. Your balance would also be awful as you'd have little depth perception, and it would be painful.

So... you still shouldn't. But you'd still be able to see.

Well. I mean, yeah. Says so. Seems right.

It's just... strange, yeah?

Yeah, it is. I would have thought.. I would have thought he had moved on, you know?

I've been thinking about it. I can't not Like... what if he's been hanging around since his Death but hasn't really been able to do anything? Why now?

I don't ... I need to go to the library.

In all fairness, it makes sense with all the... weird stuff that's been happening. Well, it doesn't make sense necessarily, but... if it was going to happen, now is probably the most logical time.

Want me to come with you? I'll help with whatever you need.

It's strange. I've missed him and all, but this is unusual.

If you're not busy. It's up to you.

I'm never too busy for you, Ernie. Besides, I miss you.

Do you think we can help him?

I'm not a kid, Ernie!

Well, I think we owe it to him to try.

Yes. Yes you are. By seven months.

Of course we do. Cedric was is our housemate and friend. I'll do whatever I can for him, and I know you will too.

That doesn't make me a kid, meanie!

I think you're more than just bored.

At least, stating number 10 will probably save someone's life now. Everyone should thank you in advance.

[info]lovelybones_

So what's the next level of bored? Stir crazy?

I'm just out to make the world a better place, obviously! It's very important information!

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]artsydean
2015-11-09 03:19 am UTC (link)
We'll go with that because I'm sure the actual level's of boredom are more depressing than what I really mean by that.

It is very important! Even though I don't hold in any of my sneezes, so I'm already good.

For that ant one, have you seen any movies about giant ants? Them?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]lovelybones_
2015-11-09 03:48 am UTC (link)
My level of boredom is probably tear worthy at this point. I think all of ours are.

Good on you, Dean! If you see Sally doing it, scold her!

No? What movies?!

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]artsydean
2015-11-09 03:57 am UTC (link)
I'm sure we can think of something that would cure boredom....temporarily.

I'll make sure she sneezes on someone that deserves it. Hopefully, it'll be full of snot and what not.

Uh, Them. It's basically about radioactive ants that grow super huge and try to kill off the human race.

[info]pl_sally

I'll make sure to aim my sneezes!

Aim true, Sally! Aim true.

2015-11-10 01:07 am UTC (link)
I'm all ears, Dean.

Ha! We can make it a game. Sally Perks... sneezing on all our enemies.

Oh. That makes more sense, I suppose. I've never seen that, and it sounds terrifying! Radioactive ants?

[info]artsydean

You would make think of something on the spot. Give me a minute or five, Ellie.

We'll need a lot of sneezing powder to make sure she sneezes at the right time all the time.

Let's hope that never ends up happening.
