Rachel’s head felt like it was about ready to explode, which was in part why she was cradling it in the palms of her hands as she hunched over her journal. She was about a foot through with her Muggle Studies essay, which wasn’t going so terribly- it was pretty easy to just make up the things that Rachel didn’t know or understand, and she didn’t feel too badly about it, since she was pretty sure most muggles would agree with what she was saying, even if she didn’t quite have all the details down. June’s entry brought her attention back to Dark Arts though- she still hadn’t been able to crack the spell, and it wasn’t for lack of effort. Rachel’s strategy for the year was to try her best at the assignments that weren’t too morally compromising, and so she gave this an honest effort. She just couldn’t do it. Rachel felt momentarily better knowing that June hadn’t managed it either- at least she wasn’t the only one, but that didn’t stop the clock from ticking. |
