I love these because they contextualize it so well.

The more I see the more I wish I could have gone. I would make a passable Mad-Eye Moody.

We had one very good one. But with dozen's of Snapes, we could have certainly endured a second.

In any case, I would make an acceptable generic auror. IMHO it would seem the only way I would fit into said universe.

Whatever you were, people would be ecstatic at an actual guy being present.

So which one of us has to write the fic to accompany these pictures?

[identity profile] rm.livejournal.com 2007-05-29 08:20 pm (UTC)(link)
You can take the version that involves muggles and if [livejournal.com profile] stupid_drawings and [livejournal.com profile] tapestrymlp and [livejournal.com profile] kalichan think it's a good idea/consent I'm going to see what I can do with photoshop for the second one to see if it's usable for a young!Abraxus (like 19) story.

Awfully nifty. If you could shop out the background muggles, you could almost use the first one as a portrait.

[identity profile] rm.livejournal.com 2007-05-29 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. I definitely posted best there. The backgorund is sort of hillarious though. God. I haven't even really thought about what Abraxus at 19 must have been like.

I love the dancing one. It is absolutely gorgeous!

Thank you! I'm so happy that picture has finally surfaced. I think there are only one or two other things from the con I'm now looking for.

Very nice photos.

Completely unsurprisingly, I'm sitting here trying to figure out what style of waltz you were doing there. Although it looks like the camera caught you during a slow promenade, which isn't terribly informative.

The arms are beautiful.

I was trying, rather haphazardly as I'm not good at it, to lead her (who had never done this before) through that basic turning Regency waltz. When it became apparent that I was not up to the task, especially on a loud dance floor vibrating with modern pop music and full of blinky lights, I said "fuck it" and got us into said vague promenade position.

That said, it was still a necessary endeavor, as they were doing the thing with the corridor in the middle of the dance floor and encouraging people to show off in that way that leads most people to being their most trashy.

I'm certianly very pleased with how the photo came out.

I find it difficult to lead somebody unfamiliar with it through Regency waltz at the best of times. I can't imagine how difficult it would be in the situation you describe (and on carpet, no less).

I think I've somehow managed to miss being in any dance situations with the corridor thing. I'm not actually sure what you're referring to (I can see a corridor formed in that dance hall, but I don't know how the corridor space gets used in dances like that, as I tend to avoid attending them).

That dancing shot is absolute poetry.

Thank you. The photog was just excellent. I need to drop her a note.

That's just lovely. I love your outfit, I love the dancinghands, I love the masks.

Thank you!
