"Probably. But, to the nineteen year old whose brother is insisting on cutting her food for her because she reacted with her hands instead of her magic, there's nothing more annoying."

Honestly, given the British and European focus of most of Hogwarts' studies, I'm not holding out hope for much. But, I wanted to cover my bases before I go asking to borrow some of the books I remember from the library at home growing up."
