Keeping Occupied [Video/Offline]

[Thanks to the rain, Alex has been laying low at home today. Rain was bittersweet nowadays. Every once in a while, she caught herself thinking about Mason when it rained. After all, standing in the rain on Waverly Place was the first time she'd shared a kiss with her werewolf boyfriend.

[Thanks to her PCD, she can be seen sitting in the windowsill of her room, pointing her wand outside. She's filling invisible magic bubbles with rain water and letting them drop. Onto the pavement, onto small creatures, and perhaps onto you! One of her favorite things to do with Mason was throw water balloons at unsuspecting victims who happened to be wandering down Waverly Place. Oh, what fun!]

Hnhnheheheh! That was a good one.

[Have yo been hit with a water bubble? Feel free to yell at this young whipper snapper.]

Well, if you want to work in the Ministry of Magic, for one. Or to be a Healer or an Auror. Or a professor at Hogwarts.

So, you don't get to stay in the human world with your magic?

I suppose one could. Some people do. But most choose not to.

I couldn't stay in the wizard world for the rest of my life. I'd miss the human world too much.

Besides, if I were to actually win the wizard competition, God forbid, I'd miss my friends and family too much.

Except Justin. He'd probably be a pain to deal with, especially if he lost the competition to me.
[That last part is only half in jest.]

[This is beginning to sound much different than the wizarding/Muggle world divide she's familiar with...]

... What happens if you win the competition?

I keep my powers, my brothers lose theirs.
Justin holds a grudge against me forever because he's the better wizard. Max... finds something to occupy himself. (He's shockingly good at that.)

But you made it sound as though... you'd never see your friends again if you won.

Yeah, if I was in your world.
I live in the human world. On a regular basis.

Right.

[She ponders for a moment.] Most wizards where I come from choose not to live in the Muggle world because we're governed by a statute of secrecy.

So, you do have a choice.

Yes. We do.

You'd choose to stay in the wizard world?

Having a career in the wizarding community wouldn't mean I could never go back to the Muggle world. Or at least in ideal circumstances. Now... [Sigh]. It would be better to keep them separate. There's a war brewing.

A war?
Between wizards and humans?

[She shakes her head.]

No, this is... between wizards. Dark wizards are gaining power and support again. But in these conflicts, Muggles can often be... [deep breath]... casualties.

Dark wizards... like evil.

Huh. There are just selfish wizards where I come from. Although I did have a friend who wanted to do away with the wizard competitions for good.

Very much so. Wizards who will stop at nothing to gain power, with no regard to who stands in their way. ... It happened fourteen years ago, and now it's happening again.

That sucks.
Sorry you guys have to go through that.

It's all right. We just... have to work to find a way to defeat them this time.

But... why is it your problem?
Aren't there any older wizards to take care of that?

Certainly. There's an entire organization dedicated to fighting these wizards. But if we do our part as well, it can only help.

Oh, teamwork. Right.
I guess that makes sense.

Precisely. Teamwork is very important.

So, what are you guys doing to help out?

It might not be much, but for now, I have convinced my best friend to teach other students proper defensive spells.
