Yet again I am far too late for my traditional salutations to be of much use, but I hope you enjoy your stay with us nonetheless.

For your newbie gifts I present a Replica Holocron and a silver reproduction of your Patronus. If you don't know what your Patronus is you can just saunter over to the link in the Pottermore quiz thread and your figuine will magiccally take shape.
Ain't sorcery grand?

Speaking of Harry Potter, might I enquire which Common Room you call home?

I arrive afterr the fiesta, but I still bring black-hole coffee! Hope youu'll enjoy it here.

It's me, Cicily, AKA fellow DW audio drama script writer! How are ya? Welcome aboard!

Have a cup of black tea to keep you warm and awake!

Have a rusted bit of metal. I have no idea what it used to be, but it's twisty and orangey and looks super cool.

Are there any obligatory questions left for me to ask... What gender pronouns should we use to refer to you (He seems pretty cool for a newbie, She seems pretty cool for a newbie, etc., etc.)? I'm particularly curious because I mentioned the PPC to a couple of my friends lately, and I want to figure out if you're one of them. (Although I don't think any of them are learning Japanese...)

--Key, not a metalworker, she/her

*drives electric car into the Board* This is yours now.

Ho, hey.
It's Tesla! The one! The only!
Teslaaaaaa!

Welcome, my finely feathered fellow.
My gift upon you is: a high-two-and-a-half! (it's like a high-five, but for people with only half their hands.)

I feel you on the "too many fandoms" thing. Here's some movie-theater popcorn to eat while you read the Original Series and whatever spinoffs strike your fancy.

And OMG you're learning Japanese?! Me too! How far have you gotten? Are you taking classes or teaching yourself? I've been taking classes on it since my freshman year of college. It can be a pain to learn sometimes, what with all the kanji and the weird grammar points and honorific language, but I absolutely, 100% do not regret my decision. :D 日本語は一番！

*thrusts a butterscotch-cinnamon pie in your direction* Welcome to the PPC! I'm sure you'll enjoy your stay here. Is there any chance of me seeing some of your fics? Our fandoms seem to coincide quite a lot and now I'm curious.

Here's a towel. Keep it with you, it's important.

Not in a "Hitchhiker's Guide" way, but it'll help keep your shininess existing for a while, at least.

Didn't know Gravity Falls really had a fandom, but I'm glad; great game. I liked Warriors, too, until I fell behind a few (dozen) books.

I hope you enjoy your time here, and you sound nice. I'll give a coppermind to store memories in, as per usual.

MIRACULOUS LADYBUG?! STEVEN UNIVERSE?!?!?! UNDERTALE?!?!?! SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE *FLAILS*

Aside from one of my own shed feathers, have a trophy stand replica of Rose Quartz's sword, a potted yellow flower that totally doesn't want to kill you, a replica of Marinette's yo-yo, and a Golden Snitch with a Poke Ball engraving!

This magic shovel digs up...

Uh...

LOVE. It digs up LOVE.

You miiiiiight want to stay away from [spoiler redacted] and [spoiler redacted], and ESPECIALLY [spoiler redacted].

Hello, and welcome aBoard! For your newbie gift, take this plate of freshly-made SPaGhetti! Hope you decide to stick around. :)

Fa-la-la-la-la Val-ha-la-laaaaa~!

Welcome, welcome! Make yourself comfortable and have a slice of Infinite Pizza!
