I left a personal copy of An Appraisal of Magical Education in Europe at the Slytherin's table in the Great Hall yesterday evening. It would not be a difficult thing to have it replaced and it isn't a book I need for any of my classes but I would appreciate it if the book made its way back to me. 'E. Aarset' is written inside the front cover if it makes it easier to specify. Thank you.

Have you checked the lost and found? I also assumed you tried a spell to find it.

[snjoland]

Yes, I checked the lost and found. But I didn't even think to use a spell. That would have taken less time or...something.

[sanskrit]

Do not worry.

I think this is a good opportunity to meet other Slytherin students. I think I have seen you around, but I am Salman Kumar, one of your Prefects.

[snjoland]

...Nothing like a 'good opportunity' during something slightly unfortunate, I suppose.

A prefect? Oh, I see. I am Eyvindur Aarset.

[givesyouaboner]

Why would you just leave your stuff around?
But to answer your question, I haven't seen it. I'm not a Slytherin though.

[snjoland]

I don't leave my things around on purpose.

And I don't care what house you're in. But I suppose it would help or something.

[givesyouaboner]

Then maybe you should just be more responsible. The only thing I've ever lost had legs.
I'm sure it'll turn up eventually though.

[snjoland]

I suppose we were not fortunate enough for you to have gotten lost.

[givesyouaboner]

I have a flawless sense of direction. Maybe you can get yourself lost.

[snjoland]

Hn, I suppose there is no point in subjecting ourselves to our Houses' stereotypes with relations with one another. Fighting is pointless.

[givesyouaboner]

No, there probably isn't. To be honest, if that happened, someone would swoop in to white knight and then points would be taken away and both of our houses would hate is.
It really isn't worth it.

[snjoland]

That would be annoying. Thank you anyway for letting me know you haven't seen my book.

[givesyouaboner]

No problem. I hope you can find it.

[bonafide_divinity]

Well, I'll let you know if I run into it, Aarset.
It sounds like a very exciting read, so I'm sure you're dying to know how it ends.

[snjoland]

Should I assume that you're trying to be funny?

[bonafide_divinity]

Of course not! What would make you assume something like that?

I am merely expressing a deep concern for your mental and emotional well being.

[snjoland]

I don't think a book like that would disturb my well being.

[bonafide_divinity]

Really?

Because I've heard it's very gripping and suspenseful.

[snjoland]

You are not being very funny.

Just let me know if you see it or something.

[bonafide_divinity]

I haven't seen it.

[snjoland]

That was all you needed to say. Thanks, anyway, I suppose.

[coffeewithtea]

I was at the Slytherin's table in the Great Hall yesterday evening.

[snjoland]

That could mean anything, really. Slytherins usually sit at the Slytherin table.

[coffeewithtea]

That is quite true but I saw a book with that title left at the table.

[snjoland]

Is that so? Did you possibly see what happened to it?

[coffeewithtea]

Yes.

[snjoland]

What happened to it, then?

[coffeewithtea]

I took it.

[snjoland]

Hn...?

...Okay. Could I have it back, please?

[coffeewithtea]

I'll make sure to return it to you before the week is over.

[snjoland]

What, you're actually reading it?

[coffeewithtea]

No, I am sitting on it.

[snjoland]

I can't say that your humour is all that funny.

[coffeewithtea]

Neither is yours. I can't imagine why you thought I would read this.

[snjoland]

Why would you take it if you weren't interested in it?

[coffeewithtea]

Obviously I was going to drop it off at the lost and found.

[snjoland]

Right, of course... Erm, thanks, then. But you haven't given it to the lost and found yet?

[coffeewithtea]

I did say I would return it to you so obviously not.

[snjoland]

Why is it that I have to wait until the end of the week?

[coffeewithtea]

Do you want to wait much longer than that? I can arrange for that.

[snjoland]

You must be the sort who likes to be difficult.

[coffeewithtea]

Will you be going to Hogsmeade this weekend? I can hand over to you there.

[snjoland]

Huh? Uh, yeah, I'll go. Where do you want to meet?

[coffeewithtea]

Anywhere is fine. A place where I can spot you easily would work.

[snjoland]

I guess we can meet in front of a store or something.

[coffeewithtea]

Name the place and I'll be there.

[snjoland]

Honeydukes. We can meet there.

[coffeewithtea]

Very well. I'll like see you there.
