Gave the wider student body it's one usual chance per school year. Squandered by a bundle of fifth years arguing about where Brazil was. Three of them had the right longitudinal hemisphere, at least, but that's hardly sufficient. However it did take an hour and thirty-three minutes before that happened, which is a good seventeen minutes longer than last year. Congratulations, Hogwarts. You're either getting marginally less stupid or better at hiding it.

Not that my own house is precisely leading any sort of valiant charge. Whoever left that paperback in the common room? You won't be getting it back. It has such a paucity of anything resembling merit that I've intervened for your own sake.

	Surely, you can't expect the student body to be able to walk and breathe simultaneously and know rudimentary geography. Your standards are set too high. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I have indeed been told that I am "completely fucking unreasonable". I'm thinking perhaps I might find some tasteful way of incorporating that into the family coat of arms. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Translate it into Latin. Latin, Italian, French, those three languages make everything sound romantic and harmless. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Which is why I prefer German, which makes everything sound dire and threatening. Vollständig unvernünftig. So much more satisfying. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I killed the rest of them. Competition's intolerable. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You're intimidating enough that this might actually be plausible. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Should the unthinkable happen, I trust you'll provide me with an alibi. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notsorosier 2010-10-06 04:39 am UTC (link)
	Naturally. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Word in the halls is the only reason Kinsey Bole isn't in Azkaban is because man who administers the Veritaserum kept... disappearing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	This is also plausible. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I wouldn't want him as my enemy, that's for certain. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	And didn't ask me to help hide the body? I thought we were friends. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Dare I ask for the title of that paperback? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	causticsoda 2010-10-05 09:55 pm UTC (link)
	I couldn't quite make it out and I didn't try very hard. The writing was very florid. Something-or-other Captive, I think. If you tell me it was yours, Liam, I will lose the modicum of respect I was still nursing for you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	contrarium 2010-10-05 10:56 pm UTC (link)
	*Hahahaha!* I would never leave it in the Common Room if it was mine, Kin, but I never read rubbish so it most definitely isn't mine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	causticsoda 2010-10-06 04:05 am UTC (link)
	I should damn well hope so too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	contrarium 2010-10-06 06:14 am UTC (link)
	If you aren't giving it back, I certainly hope you aren't keeping it in our dorm room either. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Don't be silly. I set it on fire. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Good. I cannot believe a Slytherin would read such a thing. That Brazil argument is even worse. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	You were generous to give them even one chance. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Still not forgiving the world? Well, you know me. I'm a giver. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notsorosier 2010-10-06 04:12 am UTC (link)
	You're giving enough to this school by merely attending, Kin. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	causticsoda 2010-10-06 04:30 am UTC (link)
	And I hate to think what it's giving me. [Kinsey/Elizabeth] That was a little thick on the smarm even for you. What are you after? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kinsey/Elizabeth notsorosier 2010-10-06 04:40 am UTC (link)
	Now, now. Do I have to have a reason to be pleasant to you, Kin? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kinsey/Elizabeth causticsoda 2010-10-06 07:11 am UTC (link)
	Pleasant? No. Ruthlessly complimentary? That piques my curiosity. You're always at your kittenish sweetest when you want something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kinsey/Elizabeth notsorosier 2010-10-06 07:30 am UTC (link)
	Okay, fine. Do you think you could help me with the Runes translations for this week? I've got most of them, but one is giving me a hard time and everyone knows you're the best in the class. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kinsey/Elizabeth causticsoda 2010-10-06 10:06 am UTC (link)
	Of course. It'd be a pleasure. And while I'm doing so, you can regale me with all the juiciest gossip you've gleaned since we all got back. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kinsey/Elizabeth notsorosier 2010-10-06 02:40 pm UTC (link)
	Likewise, it would be my pleasure. When are you free? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kinsey/Elizabeth causticsoda 2010-10-06 09:40 pm UTC (link)
	For you, my dear, anytime. Especially after dinner. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kinsey/Elizabeth notsorosier 2010-10-07 12:46 am UTC (link)
	After dinner it is then. The common room or somewhere else? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kinsey/Elizabeth causticsoda 2010-10-07 01:26 am UTC (link)
	The commonroom's rather common, but the couch in front of the fire's so very comfortable. We can't have the third years getting complacent about their ownership of it, can we? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kinsey/Elizabeth notsorosier 2010-10-07 01:32 am UTC (link)
	We can't have that at all. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Brazil? Any five year old could have figured that one out. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	causticsoda 2010-10-06 04:08 am UTC (link)
	Appalling, isn't it? Some people clearly engage their brains so infrequently it's a wonder they can manage it at all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	savannahhiggs 2010-10-08 12:36 am UTC (link)
	Tell me about it. I don't even know how I managed five years at this place. (Reply to this) (Parent)
