"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Are you sure she's not a Slytherin?

That would be Julie Andrews, not Mary Poppins. I kid.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Okay, but Nanny McPhee is a Slytherin, right?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

OMG, you're right, Dana. Slytherin through and through (meant in the best possible way, but, still; without a doubt).

I bet she and Mary Poppins were mortal enemies at Hogwarts.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Mary Poppins was obviously a Ravenclaw. Obviously.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I was thinking Ravenclaw for Mary Poppins but I wouldn't be surprised if the sorting hat gave her a choice.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

but I wouldn't be surprised if the sorting hat gave her a choice.

According to canon the Sorting Hat gives everybody a choice. They just don't know they have a choice.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Green Lantern footage. Just enough for me to be sure there's FX and shirtlessness, so I'm pretty happy.

Oh, the FX was cool. Which Green Lantern is he? Hal Jordan?

Do we know anything about Hogwarts in the 1880s? Ahh but if Mary is a witch she could be much older than she looks. The only timeline I could find jumps from 1492 to 1945.
