Students Outside the ISS

[alt_moderator]

Alternity gave many of its characters the ability to carry on conversations that were not able to be monitored by the Protectorate. Chief among these were the Order's private lock, for Order members only, and the "ISS" or "I Solemnly Swear" lock, which was created by Fred and George primarily as a way to speak to Terry.

But there were a number of students who were never part of the ISS lock. These students often had to rely on off-journal communication, or carefully couched statements to one another, to make their shifting ideas and allegiances known.

This thread is for any and all questions for the student-characters who were never part of the ISS: Lavender, Linus, Seamus, Padma, Blaise, Zach, Michael, Megan, Ernie, Eloise, Ginny, Daphne, and Milli. And although they don't have played journals of their own, it's possible that if you have a question for an NPC who was not on the ISS lock, we might be able to relay an answer....

Well, it's not as if I planned it to be my final statement, you know? But yeah, if I had to go out on something, that was probably about the best thing I could have chosen.

I guess, one thing is that those last weeks, things were clicking into place, one way or another. Like Justin and Ernie, and what was happening between them. And you could see how joining the Council wasn't really all that great a thing for Patil or Finnigan. And then what happened to Daphs. I mean to say, I loved driving her round the twist, getting a rise out of her, but she was...good, you know? She was far too good for Crouch. So when he killed her, and Harry left school, that's when things really kicked into gear.

So, I guess the point was: It just wasn't on.

'Revolution will be Hufflepuff,' eh? No, can't say as I have, but then, I've been dead for a while. I'm not sure I agree with it, if I'm understanding it right. In one sense, we're slow to withdraw our support but when we do see the need, no one's going to stand in our way. But on the other, we Badgers are willing to do whatever's necessary. So it depends on whether what you mean is that there will be a revolution and the smart play is to convince the Hufflepuffs that it's necessary, or whether you mean we're the first who're going to get fed up with unfairness and injustice and organise to do something about it. Because if it's the first then that's a Slytherin's revolution. If it's the second, then the Gryffindors are more likely to lead the charge.
