My... it certainly has been quite a while since I have been to the isles... Must say it is good to be back, though, especially given the circumstances. Oh-! I had best introduce myself-! Ivan Ivanovich Braginski, pleased to make your acquaintance. [there's the beginnings of what almost look like a doodled smiley face, hastily scratched out] I will be teaching your Duelling classes starting this semester, and hope to see many of you sign up and come and work out some of the frustrations I've been seeing with each other in a safe environment learn something.

[more odd scratches on the page, until the ink runs out, as he thinks of what else to say]

In light of recent events, I might as well get out of the way now that I will accept none of the blood-purity nonsense in my classroom. Before you feel the need to ask, yes, I am a pureblood, whatever that's good for these days, and no, I'm not the paragon of muggle sympathies. [he doesn't understand them, and has no care to look into them further than he already did as a child] That said, I do not hate them, either, so do not take my saying that as I do not want muggleborns in my classroom. Quite the contrary.

Now that I, perhaps, have said too much... I want to welcome students to my class, and to my office, and extend the offer to... ah... be bothered, for whatever reason.

Also in regards to recent events: I am more than willing to assist in... keeping the peace, I suppose. I do hope it will blow over soon, but should it not, I will certainly do my best to help.

-Professor Ivan Ivanovich Braginski

( ooc: Ivan is from an old family, with a ton of branches, etc, by now; some of whom gave a resounding NO1CURR to the war, and the rest were pretty extreme on either side. Based on his backstory (and the requsite changes I still need to make, har) it is safe to assume that his immediate family was pretty deeply enmeshed in the darker side of things. He, personally, didn't want any part of it, though, so don't be afraid of him going on about mudbloods and maiming students "accidentally" for their heritage and the like. )

I understand everyone is still on about this blood thing, and I know it's really hard for some of you to accept that Purebloods are way better than anyone else, but we're forgetting one thing:

Those Death Eaters had horrible fashion sense. All black was so 17th Century. If I'm going to side with anyone, they need to work on a uniform that says "Look at me. I look good, so what I have to say has to be right".

First Story

If I'm late pointing this out, it's only because I was so shocked.

Some of you, and I'm sure you know who, should be ashamed of yourselves.

And that's all I have to say about that.

Now, can anyone recommend some good books to me?

Listen up, Slytherins.

I don't care if your parents are wizards or muggles or chimps or whatever. I care about the game next weekend, and I care about bringing it so hard Ravenclaw cries. On my team, we judge you on your badassness, not who your parents are. So you guys can either not be dicks or you can not play.

I want you on the pitch right after dinner.
