you know, i was thinking.
we all get on the hogwarts express in london, right?
but the train goes pretty far up north.
like, we're probably in scotland!
so when school's out, isn't it really inconvenient for everyone that lives up north to go down to london and then back north?
i mean, it's a pretty good prank, but not very nice as a every year thing.
i wonder if that's how it started.
a prank that goes on forever.
like that song!

it goes on and on and on and on
but in all seriousness
i think it depends on the family really
i mean wizarding families have way more than one way to get to their home
at least more so than muggle families do
granted a few of the students probably have friends down in london so they could camp there for a little while before going back up north again

probably.
but still, it's a pretty funny thought.
one day, a long time ago, a hogwarts headmaster decided to prank everyone.
and it stuck!

i think only you and jane would find this sincerely funny
in fact i wouldnt be surprised at all if that headmaster had been part of the egbert crocker bloodline

oh man, can you imagine?
that would have been so cool.
imagine if we had a painting of him too!

im saying this right now
i am not going on a wild painting hunt to see if this happens to be true
it dont matter what you bribe me with the answer will be no

well.
i see where you stand then.
that's fine, i'll just ask jane.

my strider senses are detecting a puppy dog egbert pout
are these senses correct

[Sob, he can't refuse a puppy dog pout why does John's family have to have that down to a fine art?]

no no no, it's fine.
you've made yourself perfectly clear.
no sleuthing for you.

dude
you were pouting werent you

ok no
nope
stopping that right the fuck there
you know how i feel about the goddamn pouting
and if you dont then im not fucking telling you
if you actually find the dude come find me so i can see that shit for myself

i'm sure i don't know what you mean.

but very well!
I will show you what we find.
wish us luck!

paging doctor bullshit

yeah sure

btw since im doing the rounds apparently on everyone i know
how are your classes coming along

I think you might be thinking a little too hard about this, John.
I mean, if we were muggles, then yes. This would honestly be rather cumbersome for no reason!
But we have very easy ways to get home without it taking all that much time. It's probably why no one cares to make it a huge deal.

hehehe, maybe, but it's still a fun thought!

You sure do have an odd sense of humour sometimes. But I suppose that's what makes you so rather endearing and fond.

Now, how have I never put that one together?
That's a good point, John!
But I agree, it isn't a very nice prank.
And only the person who started it can enjoy it!
Or people who figure it out like you, I guess.

hey, hey jane!
dave said that maybe if i'm right about the prank, one of hogwarts old headmasters is related to us!
we should check it out.
and see if there's a painting of them.

Oh wow, you think?
I guess we'll have to SLEUTH this one out!

we sure will!

We'll beat Dave once and for all!

CONSIDERING HOW GOD DAMN COLD IT GETS IN THIS CASTLE, WHY THE HELL WOULD ANYONE ACTUALLY WANT TO LIVE IN SCOTLAND?
MAYBE THEY JUST SPEND TWO MONTHS HOLIDAYING SOMEWHERE WARM OR EXCITING WHEN THEY AREN'T AT SCHOOL, HOW ISN'T THIS SOMETHING YOU THOUGHT OF?
