Ugh, Potions was terrible. I'm screwed if Elmasry puts anything about how to brew Amortentia on the test.

But I get it, it was sooooo adorable, and I hope you all took a deep breath and got to experience the scent of your "true love". Who finds the love of their life at seventeen anyway, right??? I'm such an idi Hmmmm. I'm trying to train myself to be less of a romantic, but I can't really pull off bitter misanthrope, can I? I got as harsh as passive aggressive quotation marks. It feels kind of weak.

Classmates, please advise on how to better renounce love. Chris? Ravi?

Hey! So... This is a little out of the blue, but could I ask for your help with something? It's a crafting project. A friendship bracelet.

[Warded to Etta]

I know you're a busy woman with a lot of things to do, but are you free tonight? I'm dying in my cabin. I need a break from Levi and Cecil. They're getting too cute.

At least now I know I'll forever be safe from unintentionally ingesting amortentia. Impossible for my would-be attacker to slip my amortentia into anything edible -- not an appetizing combination of scents, at all!

First off, my potion smelled of world domination in case you were wondering and if anyone out there smells of that, hit me up. Secondly, if anyone needs me I'll be in a tent behind the girls cabin until Halloween making the entire schools costumes. If you asked me for something, come check it out. I have bins with your name on it and if it something more than a prop, we need to do some fittings. What's the date? Holy shit. Okay Trixie, you can do this. If you smell smoke and glue, it's okay it's supposed to smell like that.

Anyone want to be my helper and just hand me coffee?

So if my potion smelled mostly of nothing does that mean I can pretty much make up my own thing or does it mean I'm destined to be alone forever? okay I know it's snow but that's weird right?

Okay for real, it's snow. Like for real. Thank god.

I um got a... weird creepy box with my name on it. I don't know if I should open it. Should I ask a prefect? Should I ask a teacher?

[...]

Nevermind I opened it. It's just got mostly random junk in it? Bunch of random batteries, a broken PSP, a broken flashlight (and one that does at least work!), and an Evanescence CD.

Oh, and someone's 3DS! It's red and it's got the initials RMY carved on it? It works, I turned it on. If it's yours, I'm going down to the garden with Marilyn to draw, you can meet me there to get it.

Trixie, the broken flashlight is rusted and the PSP’s screen is busted, but maybe you could use the parts for something?

Do you think someone is making fun of me for blowing the power??

All right, Clem. Tonight. We're rectifying this costuming thing. (And anybody else who isn't finished. I promise not to poke you with pins.)

Also: I need tips on charming my hair. I think I've got the animation and the colors down reasonably well? Suitably snakish. Still working on the hissing, though. Any ideas?

[Warded to The Holy Rosicrucians]

Any of you want to practice again tonight, I'll be in the music room after Dueling. Probably until curfew.

I need to fucking hit something.

I don't take Potions, but I was passing by on my way from History and heard some kids talking about the Amortentia thing. Elmasry seemed to be letting anyone with the manners to ask really nicely go in and smell it, but he was definitely watching it carefully, which was reassuring.

So yeah. Amortentia. That was really weird.
