If it's all the same, I'd rather not get any more post.

Thanks.

It would be interesting to see what other peoples' lives are like.

[alt_megan]

But what if you messed it up? Because you didn't know how to be them? It would be hard to be someone else.

[alt_pansy]

Well, if you messed it up you could just say you hit your head and were acting a bit daft for a while there.

[alt_megan]

Oh! You could!

Do you think anyone would believe that?

[alt_pansy]

They'd believe it of me, I think.

[alt_megan]

Oh.

That's because

I think it'd be more interesting to be someone else than pretend. You could just switch journals with someone and pretend. But it wouldn't make you really anything.

[alt_pansy]

It's okay, Megan, if you have something to say, say it. You won't hurt my feelings. Promise.

Pretending is nice, but then you have to come back to real life. And potions exams.

If I was a pureblood and a Slytherin, I wouldn't waste it like you. I wouldn't know how to be a Slytherin. Even a daft one. It makes me nervous just thinking about it. But I wish I was a pureblood. Then

I can't. I don't have anything to say. Not really. But I don't think I'd like to be someone else after all. I'd mess it up. I know I would.

I don't mind potions exams.

[alt_pansy]

Then I guess it's just best that you be you. From what I can see, you're good at it.

Do you know where you'll be spending the holiday?

[alt_megan]

It's not very hard to be me.

With my guardian. I've had a guardian since I was five.

[alt_pansy]

Where does your guardian live?

[alt_megan]

Lyme Regis. It's very windy there. Most of the time. And the beach is full of stones. My guardians house is on a hill, and it's quite grand.

Where do you live?

[alt_pansy]

That sounds lovely, though. I would love to see the ocean. I went once as a little girl but I don't remember much except a seagull pooped on my mother's shoulder.

[alt_megan]

Eew. And you want to go back? I've never seen a seagull poop on anyone! They just fly around, and sometimes if the wind is right it seems like they're floating. I like seagulls. I think it would be more fun to fly with wings.

[alt_pansy]

Well, the seagull pooped on Mum and she WAS going on about something silly so I actually had a sort of respect for the bird. Obviously he disagreed with mum.

[alt_megan]

Seagulls don't do that.

[alt_pansy]

Maybe it was an animagus.
