SerpenTimes Superlatives - January 2018


Best Storyteller
Graphic by Maxim Trevelyan
Aurelia West
  • She always has great writings for any task she works on! [Arianna Stonewater]
Emma Borg
  • She always amuses, inspires, angers, and makes me feel with her wonderful stories. [Shadow Gaunt]
Maxim Trevelyan
  • His tone and delivery make for captivating stories. [Prof. Scarlet Leslie-Lewis]
Shiloh Adlar
  • I’m always trying to badger her to turn some of the stories she writes for Book Club prompts into actual novels because I want to read more. [Sky Alton]
Sky Alton​
  • When she tells stories they almost always leave me in stitches. She has a hilarious way with words. [Gail Allen]
  • Not only is she a writer, she is an excellent one. No matter what she is talking about, her fictional writing or her real life, her way of telling the story makes you feel as if you were actually there. [Maxim Trevelyan]
  •  I would read the dictionary if she wrote it! [Polaris Black]
  • She has such a way with words, and tells them beautifully. [Prof. Tarma Amelia Black]
  • I loved reading her stories that she wrote for the Gryffindor Choose Your Own Adventure Activity! [Shiloh Adlar]

Best IRC Quit Message
Graphic by Maxim Trevelyan
Darcey Goode
(Quit: <@Darcey> In book 1: Who are the 3 Gryffindor chasers? <+H-C2-Maxim> angelina jolie alicia spinnet katie bell | <@H-B1-Ivelisse> imagining maxim in a hospital bed dreaming about angelina jolie playing quidditch) 
  • I might be biased, because I am in it, but her quit message is one of the best. It symbolizes an era of my Quidditch experience and a cause of many laughs. [Maxim Trevelyan]
Gail Allen
 (Quit: <Sky> ...should be a QM <Kendra> ..just like the QM says <@Sky> I still can't believe you ate me <Maxim> Do not worry, I also ate Amy and Dario. <@Sky> I'm just in love with fire spewing vacuum cleaners)
  • …Okay, so maybe it’s bad to suggest one that you’re in a lot but it contains mention of fire spewing vacuum cleaners-what more could you want? [Sky Alton]
Kendra Givens​
(Quit: <Behemoth> That's like asking Donatella Versace why the dress has to be pretty. <Sky> It makes you sound like a centaur.<WillLiam> yeah, sigma-heep instead of sheep?<Tarma> that's not a question, it's an arg)
  •  A great collection of hilarious statements. [Shadow Gaunt]
Prof. Arielle Lemoyne​
(Quit: <Cody> ARIELLE HAS A POINT)
  • I laugh when I read it. [Prof. Tarma Amelia Black]
Prof. Dario Brighton
(Quit: <Kendra> It's Dario... I don't ask questions, I just roll with it. | <Dario> Nah, I can't QM my own burn.)
  • Whether he can QM it or not, his QM is hilarious. [Gail Allen]
Prof. Scarlet Leslie-Lewis​
(Quit: <Ace> seekers are very important <Scarlet> is that why you like me? <Ace> no <Ace> that's probably the thing i liked the least about you | <Greb> not a fan of her personally, just because of her tendency to catch snitches | <(-'__'-)^ baiiiiiiii)
  • I laugh when I read it. [Prof. Tarma Amelia Black]
Prof. Tarma Amelia Black​
(Quit: <@Iorek>I'm training you well<@Cos|Away>*Allons-y*<@Behemoth>Tomato.<@Ace> i'm a hufflepuff<WillLiam>you can bash me too*Niffler is now ~ QueenNiffler*<Sky> Cuter than frog + hammer* Katelin is now ~QueenMazur<Kendra>tfsb indeed <3<Amy>To QM or not to QM)
  • She always has some of the funniest things listed in her QMs like Mari’s brain going splat, Kendra going boom, Arielle’s infamous typos, and Sky’s spoilers amongst many others as it changes often. [Shiloh Adlar]
Shiloh Adlar
(Quit: Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.)
  • It's to the point, meaningful, and a great piece of advice. Quitting with a lasting impression! [Prof. Scarlet Leslie-Lewis]

Most likely to use Brabas as a blanket
Graphic by Polaris Black
Prof. Cody Lewis
  • Now that he's experienced a real winter, I wouldn't be surprised to see Brabas hanging around. [Prof. Scarlet Leslie-Lewis]
Prof. Zenix James
  • With her typical Gryffindor recklessness. [Shadow Gaunt]
Will Lestrange
  • I don't think there is anyone else Brabas would let get that close. [Arianna Stonewater]
  • He has even admitted as much (and I have the logs to prove it). Apparently he's been using Brabas for a blanket ever since becoming a prefect. I am not entirely convinced that's true though: I think it might have started even earlier than that. [Gail Allen]
  • I've actually seen him do it on more than one occasion! [Polaris Black]
  • How is this not a given? He’s constantly talking about cuddling with Brabas and even *coils* when he’s ready for bed. [Shiloh Adlar]
  • I believe he’s already prone to ending long days of Quidditch Practice and OWL revision by doing this so it just makes sense! [Sky Alton]

Most likely to awaken a sleeping portrait
Graphic by Shadow Gaunt
Arianna Stonewater
  • She'd happily greet every portrait, regardless of whether the subject is awake or not. [Prof. Scarlet Leslie-Lewis]
Elena Galatas
  • When she’s playing something Muggles call a video game, if she can’t beat the boss, oh my. The other night when we were talking on IRC, it was hilarious seeing her caps locked yells across the RQT locker room. I think she could wake anyone after that.
    [Shiloh Adlar]
Gail Allen
  • Yeah, I know, it's odd to nominate yourself, but I am the worst about snoring. I absolutely cannot sleep if there's snoring and I will wake people up who do. Portrait or no portrait, I will get desperate and try to put an end to the horror. [Gail Allen]
  • She is always bustling around HOL halls, hosting activities, teaching classes and causing mischief. I bet some portraits take offense at her waking them up. [Maxim Trevelyan]
Prof. Amy Lupin
  • She has a very odd (yet nifty) sense of humour AND would take notes on what the person did after they woke up. [Prof. Tarma Amelia Black]
Prof. Tarma Amelia Black
  • I don't think she would let anybody miss anything! [Polaris Black]
Shadow Gaunt
  • Shadow has been waking up the Silly Snake games and going through all the nooks and crannies of the Dungeons, so I'm sure she would wake up a portrait, if only to find out more info! [Arianna Stonewater]
  • Shadow is so enthusiastically friendly to everyone she comes across that I’m sure she wouldn’t let slumber get in the way of a good conversation. [Sky Alton]
Sky Alton 
  • One of the most active people on IRC and on HOL, she's always there and quite loud. [Shadow Gaunt]

Most likely to request a Sleeping Draught
Graphic by Polaris Black
Aurelia West
  • She's always so busy she probably forgets to sleep! [Polaris Black]
Katelin Ross, Prof. Tarma Amelia Black, QueenCody *ahem* Prof. Cody Lewis, and Prof. Amy Lupin
  • I choose these four because they are constantly telling me to go to sleep when it gets too late, but the reason it’s hard for me to sleep is because I have really bad nightmares. I’d like to think they would request a Sleeping Draught to give to me if we lived closer to do so. [Shiloh Adlar]
Prof. Amy Lupin
  • Sleep eludes her at times, so I'd imagine that a Sleeping Draught would be useful. [Prof. Scarlet Leslie-Lewis]
  • Well…perhaps she’s the least likely to ‘request’ one but she definitely needs one! [Sky Alton]
Prof. Scarlet Leslie-Lewis
  • She does so much, I'm sure she would need a Sleeping Draught to get her brain to calm down long enough to get a nap in! [Arianna Stonewater]
  • She has so much going on to often and maybe it's difficult to sleep while juggling six things to do. [Prof. Tarma Amelia Black]
Shiloh Adlar
  • She is frequently present on IRC as Aurora; the princess who pricked her finger and then fell into a magical sleep... that's pretty much a sleeping draught right there. [Gail Allen]
  • This girl is so hardworking and I see her simply everywhere, I wonder when she has time to sleep! [Maxim Trevelyan]
