She's brilliant.
Marry me.
Yay, my first buffista proposal!
I do seem to remember that Rowling had nearly every ill in the Potter-verse treatable by chocolate, but I could just be projecting my own inner drama on the text.
Zoe: Don't think it's a good spot, sir. She still has the advantage over us. Mal: Everyone always does. That's what makes us special.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Just Dementor exposure, right?

Could be. I thought that Harry got chocolate most of the time that he ended up in the infirmary. But it's been over a year since I last cracked a HP book, so I can't swear to it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Not to mention EXPECTO PATRONUS!!!
If this a) works IRL and b) has anything to to with tequila, I may convert to Wicca.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Pretty sure chocolate's canonically good for everything. It's like an aspirin/valium.
[eta: Er, HPverse chocolate. But RealWorld!chocolate's pretty good too.]

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor
Oh, I agree, the books are a fantastically accurate portrayal of Wicca. Wicca spells are all in bastard Latin, after all. Anyone who's attended a baby-sacrifice naked black mass in a desecrated graveyard knows that.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
And I'd REALLY like a Wizard Chess set!
Emmett has one. Though it's not all giant sized.
Dude, if it actually works like the Wizard Chess in the books, I'ma steal it.
Also, all you Buffista Wiccans, I really need a Remembrall.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I want the Sneak-o-scope for Evil Co-Workers.

Is there anyway to adapt a Foe Glass into a Boss Glass, so you can tell when they're approaching your desk?
Also, Portkeys would be a good replacement for my daily commute.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I want to be able to send a Howler to incompetent cow-orkers.
