Honestly, people, why would you attempt to Untransfigure when you don't know what the original object is? Just leave it to the professionals who can handle transfiguring without object knowledge.

For those of you thinking 'I could do that' let me give you a little hint: if you didn't pass NEWTs with an O (sorry, an E doesn't cut it) and you don't have any further training, you are not bloody qualified to try.

I had been enjoying my Saturday night.

now I need a stiff drink.

Age does not wisdom make. I do hope, however, that the person in question doesn't work in my department. That would be very concerning.

That's why quidditch, sugar quills, and massage charms were invented. On the worst days, I enjoy all three at the same time to get my mind off of everything. Sometimes I swear a good massage charm is worth ten Ogden's.

Oh, I have complete and utter faith in your ability to come through. I do hope to have it before Christmas, though - that would be when it would be put to its greatest use.

	Oh, if they had, you'd know already, so I could gleefully watch yet another hilarious public shaming. A massage sounds fantastic. Do you have a recommendation? Not a worry - you should have it by September's end. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ah, but if I were in too great a habit of doing so, then I would be too predictable (more so than usual) - I find the element of surprise makes the public shaming much more effective. I find the rates at Hardd Knut quite reasonable and the spells are of excellent quality - I allow myself one session a month to help relieve stress. Quite kind of you.

	Now where is the fun in that? The fun for me, I mean. Here I had been thinking your Department was in tip-top shape, and now you tell me this might not be so? Pity. Thank you, I'll have to book an appointment. It gives me something to do, and it's terribly funny to boot. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Oh, please don't confuse lack of public shaming with a department that is less than tip-top shape - I believe I have a reputation to maintain as the most difficult employer to please, and I would hate to have that reputation ruined. And while it doesn't provide the same entertainment value, private shaming is just as effective.

We all need hobbies, yes? Perhaps I'll have to arrange for a photograph to be taken when my brothers take their first glimpse - I'm certain it will provide you with much entertainment.

	Effective < fun. That would be hilarious. ~~Too bad Fred can't gape in horror as well.~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Perhaps we need to find another source of entertainment in the absence of an incident of public shaming. Surely there must be something else that amuses you as much or more? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, and what ideas did you have for that? Perhaps we could meet for a drink and I could tell you some of the more interesting Untransfigurations I've had to do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Perhaps we could as I would enjoy hearing about them, and we could also use the opportunity to chat about finding you that source of entertainment. Would tomorrow evening be convenient for you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tomorrow evening would be lovely. Finnigan's? Around 7? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Quite agreeable. I shall see you then. (Reply to this) (Parent)
