004 | Harry Potter | [ Voice ]

[troublefindsme]

[ Some of you may or may not recognize the voice over the Journal as belonging to one Harry Potter, the boy who lived. It's been awhile and he's just been informed what month it is so he's feeling a bit awkward and very confused. But hey! at least he's getting free food! ]

So apparently it's not actually February anymore and I've been gone a few months.

I was on the ship Charming Murderess until-well, for me it was just yesterday-but the point is-does anyone know where my-er crew is?

I know the name's a bit-er... alarming but I don't think anyone on it was actually a murderer. Hopefully that's not changed.

[Robin doesn't often find others who've been where she's been. He'll have to pardon her nosiness.]

Perhaps one day you'll see things differently. Misery can either destroy a person, or make them stronger. I wonder which effect it's had on you?

No, I think-I think I'd have been loads better off growing up anywhere else. [ Maybe it did make him stronger, who knows. All he knows is that being intentionally starved and locked in a small cupboard sucks and no one should ever have to go through that, regardless if it makes them stronger or not. ]

[And Robin had days when she longed for a cupboard to lock herself into.]

It's surprising how many children feel that way, regardless of their home situation.

Yeah well, I don't think many people actually have an aunt and uncle that actually do hate them.
