It's disappointing that I wasn't able to find everything I wanted in Hogsmeade. Only to be expected though, and I have everything that I need...

Would anyone like to volunteer their time to help me with a little experiment?

Oh, good. I'm sure the house elves will be glad to here that.

But where are you going to do this?

[hethrewabombatme]

I'd be depriving them of work! Perhaps I ought to use the common room after all.

Then again, the smell of turnips isn't something I'd like to have lingering about the place for a fortnight again. I'll be using one of the classrooms.

One with a high ceiling, I think.

They'd still be working to clean up the classroom, you know.

The charms classroom has a pretty high ceiling, but I'm not sure Professor Matteris would appreciate experimenting.

Defense Against the Dark Arts rooms have pretty high ceilings, too.

[hethrewabombatme]

It's their job!

I wonder if outside would be a viable option.

[There must be somewhere sheltered enough from the weather..]

[patrioticspells]

I know.

It might be better. You'd be less likely to destroy anything of structural value.

I'm not going to bring the castle down.
There's only chance of a little explosion.

[patrioticspells]

Didn't you say that last time and you caught someone's bed on fire?

[hethrewabombatme]

Oh, come on.
That only happened once.

[patrioticspells]

Once is still one time too many and you know it.
