Things That Are Most Definitely Not Exams Date: June 15, 2025 Characters: Wayne Pritchard and Albus Potter Location: Hogwarts Private/Public: Semi-Private Rating/Warnings: None Summary: There's only so much academics a Ravenclaw boy can take.
The words were beginning to swim about like little pollywogs, which was not what they were supposed to do at this juncture.
