I am large as a castle,...

... yet lighter than air. 100 men and their horses cannot move me. What am I?

Well hello everyone

As you might have guessed from that intro, me and my charrie Eirian share one trait (though I am surely less smart than her^^): I am absolutely addicted to riddles and love to solve lateral puzzles.

Apart from that, I am a 24 years old student from Germany who's just about to finish her masters thesis, and while I spent the last eight weeks working on that like a beserk I always heard about this site by Char, and simply couldn't resist coming on here xD
I hope my life will calm down now, even though I still have an oral exam in front of me.

In any way, I'll surely be around, and as I love chatting in the cbox, see you on there!

Why Gwen, you would be the castles shadow, would you not? ;3

Its fantastic to see someone from Germany about the proboards community – that’s not very common! Good luck on your thesis; from what I hear, those are always a royal pain.

I was supremely impressed by your application; I believe that was one of the first times someone had listed the Grim as a Boggart and had such an interesting reason behind it! Nice use of canonical informaiton and originality – props! <3

I’m often on at work (As I am at the moment) So I’m not in the cbox as often as I could be, as my job blocks all chatting clients, but I am always available for PM’s if you have any questions whatsoever, and I am almost always puttering about the forums ;3

Looking forward to seeing you about!

Why, yes that would be the very correct answer! xD And I also agree with you that Pain is a lesson... though in combination with Snape, that quote makes me sliiiightly eerie^^ (<3 Gaelic, though I can't speak it, just understand a few words^^)

Wow, thank you BOTH for your compliments, I'm glad Eirian is so appreciated and I can't wait to get to RP with you all. I put up a plot page now, so feel free to drop by there!

Boo for work blocking cboxes, that's like SO unfair... they want to have communicative people in their jobs as well, right?! And cbox is the beeest form of testing you communication skills!

See you on the site!

Haha, thought so! I do enjoy riddles, and I've written more than a few of my own actually XD Most of them being Harry Potter related >_> *Such a nerd.*

Ahh, yes! There's a story behind that particular quote actually ;3 The full quote is essentially that pain is a lesson, and you would do well to remember what it teaches you. Something Severus' mother instilled upon him as a child - mainly so he could best avoid Tobias (From learning what makes him angry and not doing it) though Severus has come to apply it to far greater things in his life now, such as the loss of Lily ;_;

I've also always had a love for Severus being versed in Gaelic thanks to his mother BD Random thing I know, but I've reasons why I feel it suits him, haha.

I saw your plot page, and chances are I will poe it later if you haven't poked both of mine by then. Im working on rp responses at the moment though xD

Ach, I know right? D: I wish I had cbox access at work ;_; But then again, the LACK of it always makes me eager to get home AND it keeps me from being distracted, so I tend to get my responses out more quickly, haha!
