Alright, it's time to get down to work before the holidays kick in. I need updates from my the Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students about their project I assigned at the beginning of the year. Come Spring, we'll be brewing antidotes and testing them on the animals themselves. Before you start a petition, I'll have a properly brewed antidote to administer if any of you fail to do the assignment correctly.


On another holiday note, Thanksgiving in America is coming up. I'm not big on family gatherings but I enjoy turkey. I know a few staff members and the odd student come from overseas, so is anyone interested in doing something?

If you can promise a turkey the size of Steve, I'm in.

Failing that my own bowl of mash and gravy.

I'm flexible.

Your Gryffindor friend? The House elves might be able to find one big enough.

[arrogantalloy]

You are now my favorite teacher. Really, there's no one else on the faculty that comes close right now.

[itsintheblood]

Only now? Who was number one in your life before?

[arrogantalloy]

Well, until the promise of turkey I didn't really have a favorite.

[itsintheblood]

I'll take what I can get out of that statement. I appreciate the compliment Mr. Stark.

[arrogantalloy]

I could give you more, but I'm told it borders on inappropriate.

[itsintheblood]

Right you are. I'll settle with an apple at the end of the year.

[arrogantalloy]

I promise will be very shiny.

[itsintheblood]

I'll hold you to that.

[arrogantalloy]

I can but hope.

[itsintheblood]

You're one step away from detention.

[arrogantalloy]

Yeah, sensing that. So, I'm going to go get on that homework you were talking about.

[itsintheblood]

Smart move.

Ma'am, can you tell Tony I'm bigger then a turkey?

I'd like to come to the gathering, even if I haven't lived in America for a while, if that's okay.

[itsintheblood]

I can.

That'll be fine, I'll have your name on the list.

[nothanks_bro]

I haven't had a proper Thanksgiving since I moved to the UK.

[itsintheblood]

Should I count you in?

[pomodoroo]

I'm not American, but the hell is Thanksgiving for anyways? All I see are people talking about food and shit.

[itsintheblood]

It's basically being glad that our ancestors didn't starve to death a long time ago. So we eat a large amount of food now.

[pomodoroo]

Sounds like a fucking fantastic holiday to me! Food is the best!

[itsintheblood]

Watch your language, but yes, it's a pretty awesome holiday. The American muggles like to put on parades with giant floating balloons.
