If you enjoy giving advice, please consider contributing your wise words to Asher Guthrie's anonymous advice column!

[WARDED TO RIBBONFIN SENIORS]
Oh, I know what you're thinking, but there will be no scolding or lecturing from your local prefect today. I promise. Actually, I've just been struck by the realization that 2013 has barrelled by shockingly quickly, and only promises to get busier, what with exams and Drama rehearsals and Winter Formal. Everyone's trying to keep our heads above the water and not drown from the stress (not Ras, obviously, he's a strong swimmer and stress-impervious), but... it's the holidays, and we should remember to cherish the time we spend together. We've been rainbow trout for three years and three months now, and in June, we'll be graduating and leaving Ribbonfin forever.

Thank god, you're thinking to yourselves. Soon I will escape the suffocating boa constrictor hold of Ravi's fussing. Ah yes, but until then, might I suggest we have a little get-together, just the ten of us? This weekend's going to be exceptionally crowded, so next week, perhaps? Please let me know what you all think. It can be just a few hours in the boys' cabin, catching up and relaxing. We can have hot chocolate, and I'll clean out Event Committee's supply of pastries.


[WARDED TO CALVIN EVERCREECH]
December's always an odd month, isn't it? I feel like I haven't seen you very much lately, with [...] everything going on. How are you handling your classes? Worried about exams at all?


[WARDED TO DIEGO MORALES]
[...] How's your clavicle?

Tch, we are all very fond of your fussing. But, yes, yes, this is a wonderful idea. (Maybe we can even pull each other around in sleds by the riverbank and pretend like we are having far more naughty fun than we actually are?) Everything is getting very stressful lately and I am going to miss all of you so much over break... and even more after graduation. But we can worry about that closer to June or I will just start to get very, very sad.

Ah, but I do not think I can be so nice today, so now I must ask you the very most important question of the day: are you going to the Winter Formal? It is our very last one, so you must, yes?

I want to say that sounds like a wonderful idea, except part of me suspects it'll end with all of the boys pulling all the girls around on sleds...?

Yes, of course I won't miss a school dance. But if your next question is, and who are you asking to be your date, Ravi? then I'm afraid my answer will disappoint you.

Fair point, but I didn't want to overcomplicate my enticing offer for people to give all the unsolicited advice their hearts might desire.

What about you, Irene? Enjoy, or don't enjoy advice giving?

Nothing I'd write about in public, Mackenzie. Besides, it looks like you have your hands full helping the rest of the school, and I'd hate to add to your plate.

Whether or not I actually follow that advice, on the other hand... Sigh.

A very responsible party, An. The rowdiest thing we're going to be doing is risking cavities from all the cake and hot cocoa we're going to have.

And great. I'll start making plans as soon as I have a minute to sit down.

I hope this won't feel awkward for you? How are things with you and Tabitha currently?

...But in all seriousness, I'm glad. I think it'll be nice too.

Please don't tell me that's sarcasm, Ivy. I'm feeling unbearably sentimental right now. Really. It's why I keep making so many terrible jokes.

Anyway, I can't talk about my ridiculous emotions surrounding graduation or else Tabitha will yell at me. (Sweetly and kindly, of course.) So instead I'll plead with you to leave the dissertation for a night and come party with us next week. I'm even banning myself from sitting in a corner and reading, so you know I'm being deadly serious about this being a party.

Thanks for the pimp bringing attention to the column, Ravi!

[RIBBONFIN SENIORS]
Definitely into this idea - the year really is going fast, so it would be nice to have some time all together. Ideally this won't be the last get-together of ours though! Next week is a fine idea.

Also your fussing isn't so much a boa constrictor as a seatbelt secured a little too tightly. :)

[RAVI]
Normally I don't do this but I'm going to have a moment of weakness here.. I petrified about graduating. I don't want to leave. Let me know if you need any help planning this thing!

Oh, you know me, I have to do everything way ahead of time. But I'm trying to pace myself. I'll save our graduation party for February, and our high school reunion for July.

And yes, thank you, Asher. That's a far superior visual. Uncomfortable, but still made to protect you all from the dangers of this cold, cruel world.

[Asher]
It's alright, Anuhea offered her help already. Which I'm thankful for, because as it turns out, I know nothing about "parties" and "having fun."

And you're welcome about the column. I know I should contribute as well, but I reached the second question and it just made me remember when I realized I couldn't become a doctor like my parents how I'd never be normal again I don't know if this is what I want those old muggleborn anxieties I had when I was much, much younger. I'm sorry, I should sit down and write something for them.
