AS OF TODAY I AM A LEGAL ADULT!!

AS I AM ALSO A RATHER LARGE MAN AT THE MOMENT I HAVE PUT MY STATUS TO GOOD USE!!!!

YOU WILL NOTICE SEVERAL SHEEP ON THE GROUNDS! I HAVE BOUGHT THEM! Well. I will admit, Gil has bought them. Gil Gilbert, to be exact, as I did not know his surname... Please suggest names below. There are five in all.

I have also bought out a bakery in the village. There is quite an abundance of sweets in the foyer. Please keep the pelican away from them.

I have made an error that I need help rectifying.

PLEASE DO NOT BE ALARMED

It is only that I DID INDEED CREATE EYEBALLS. A GREAT MANY, IN FACT. But during a follow up incantation I sneezed while saying "eyes" and I'm afraid magic interpreted it as "flies" and now there is a great deal of flying eyeballs.

I have asked the arms to help, but aside from hitting each other (and everyone else around them) with flyswatters, they aren't very good.

Treat them nicely! They are the windows to the soul, after all.

THE HANDS NOW HAVE ARMS!!

However, to my great misfortune, I have lost track of them again. Please let me know if you see them. They will be too big to fit into the plumbing at this time. They can be cornering by offering to play Rock, Paper, Scissors. But they are rather sore losers, so do not be surprised if one tries to fling the other at you when you win. Please let me know if you see them!

Thank you for your continued cooperation!!!

In the interest of following in my most esteemed mentor's footsteps, I have been experimenting with animation as well!!



















I got as far as creating a single hand(!!!!!!!!!) that promptly gave me the middle finger and scurried off. If anyone finds it please let me know POST HASTE!!!!

BEHOLD!!!!

I HAVE RECEIVED A MOST LOVELY GIFT!!!




ONE OF AUSTRALIA'S MOST FIERCE CREATURES, THE DROP BEAR!!

He will need a proper name, of course.

Why is it tradition to kiss beneath mistletoe?

And who keeps putting it up with signs to do so?

I do not wish to kiss anyone. I tried it once. It was very upsetting for us both.

I hope you enjoy your new gym. COMPLETE WITH SCENIC VIEWS OF NEW ZEALAND!!!!!

Gaze upon the sheep and mountains...and sheep. I like to pretend Mister Fluffybottom is one of them. A LEGEND TO SHEEP EVERYWHERE!!








Do you think those disappeared from Beauxbatons are alright?

We did not get a chance to show off our costumes.

I will be doing so today. I worked too hard on it not to.

You may touch my arms if you ask nicely.

Gideon Bryce should be given the highest commendations for his actions during the troubled times we experienced last week. Without him, I would have been lost. Thank you, Gideon. You are the best friend anyone could ever have.

We brought back a new friend from New Zealand! He is a ram. You will find him on the lawn in the disused stables. He is quite fluffy. He enjoys pets behind his ears and milk chocolate hobnobs.

I believe we could make rather luxurious blankets from his wool. Now that our magic is back, shearing him should be very simple!

[Gideon]
How has being back been?

Do you think I would be handsome as a man? Perhaps that will be my costume.


[Yoli]
You like Eon, don't you?


[Molly]
Why did you tell Yoli she could not be friends with me over Angel?


[JJ]
Why was Lee in your room late at night?


[Vee]
How good are you at discerning handsomeness?

[Owl to Gid-EON]

Greetings my most trust and loving friend EON,

It was Angel who cast the Cruciatus curse on Xander Lethe. Something about a deal. I don't know. I expressed joy at finally knowing the truth and I was chastised and now must compile a report about PETA.

I miss you very much.

I wish you would come back. Angel is an inferior wizard and therefore nothing to worry about. Wielding dark magic is a coward's cop out. We would easily disarm him before he could do any harm.

Please come back.

Your Future Minister and Probable Spouse,

Rudy Leblanc.

I hope you all had fun yesterday.

I certainly did!

Congratulations to everyone for surviving yesterday.

I apologise for the subterfuge. I wanted to make sure you understood that no matter how well you stick to dueling rules, horrible adults will cheat in real fights.

Luckily, you can take it out on us on Wednesday.

I hope you had fun despite everything. I believe there is cake available in the kitchen to celebrate the birthdays of Alex and Marianne. I have also provided one to apologise for the cheating. It is free for all students.

Have a good weekend.

[The cake in the kitchen is about an inch tall, with melted buttercream and blotchy iced words that spell out

NE!]

I have been denied the chance to learn dark magic detecting magic.

And I am tired of rumours.

And I do not have time to do this 'investigating' our juniour sleuths keep telling me to.

Someone tell me who cast an Unforgivable on a staff member.

So, there's only so much fun one can have in the med bay and with a lady who turns into a possum.

Hello. I'm Aidan. I'm the cause of such chaos. I deeply apologize. Certain string beans have a tendency to lose it when long lost presumed dead friends arrive on their doorstep. Such a newb.

Well, anyway, since said string bean is off not here to cater to my every whim like a good bro would, I find myself at a loss. So. Please. Keep me focused on things other than the painfully slow healing process. Bodies, am I right, folks?

[ Staff ]

On a serious note, thank you for the safe harbor. I really am sorry for the dramatics. I wasn't expecting to invade your turf like this. I just needed to find a friendly. Once I heal up, I'll get out of your hair if that's what your security team decides. No harm, no foul.

[Rudy]

Robby hates me. He says I go too far with teachers, which is true. Alas, I am not the only one here who has done it, yet he holds me accountable. I don't think I've ever had anyone hate me before who I actually respected. Why does he hate me? Why does this bother me so? Why deny me cake and then continue to be mean after I tried to apologize?

Yet, he is in love with Angel who wishes to murder and torture Purebloods and burn down the school.

I need your consultation. I would prefer to avoid Robby for now since I am conflicted. It's no fun to tease somebody who you want to like you, is it? Am I jealous?

LOOK!!!!

I AM IN PICTURES

AND MIRRORS

AND OTHER REFLECTIVE SURFACES

AGAIN!!!!!!

YES!!!

WHOEVER STOLE IT

GIVE IT BACK!!!!!!!

YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DID!!!!

[Papa]
PAPA YOU MUST COME!!!

[Students]

If we are to successfully tame a dragon and ride it, we will need a harness, no? We cannot ask Justine for one, because she will know. Professor Ness is also not fond of fun.

I thought to use the TUBES to look for one, but all it returned was, AGAIN, strange sexual implements. Do not use the Google Tubes to look for 'angry bad dragon harness'.

Any ideas, mes amis?


[GID-Eon]

You have surely noticed some of the population becoming over emotional at mealtimes.

I harvested a glumbumble tainted hive. I have been trying to find the most effective dose of the honey to make a tincture we can lace the water supply here with. Something to make people do less screaming and crying. Maybe only quiet crying.

Will you help me with this?

Papa has given me a IN TENDO SWITCH. Now I am able to CROSS the ANIMALS.

JJ, you may thank my father on your own time for yours.

I do not understand the premise of this game. I was immediately indentured to a capitalist raccoon. This island is not developed enough to have a ruling class.

He will pay for this.
