LOL - Percy ran. And he was agile - yes, those Weasleys are. *wink* You do have to be intelligent to be Minister For Magic after all.
I see you're having fun with the Americanisms. I had fun with some miscommunication, with my Aussie characters, too. So funny how bodies of water can make us use certain words so differently.
You have a regular ol' story going, don't you? The voodoo magic is really interesting.
I don't know how much Hermione would enjoy the word Bimbo - although I do like the Rememberall that was ten times stronger than any other! Percy seemed much more relaxed which isn't a characterization of him that I'm used to. I would have liked a word or two about how he learned to respect unorthodox methods - like maybe something about the twins doing something in the war. I don't know - nothing big - just a little glimpse of his transition.
Moonsickles! I can see why that place would be a big hit for an American. Love these names and new types of magic you're coming up with.
