[New writing all over the journal, kind of large and...enthusiastic is a good word. Also, doodled (and fairly well, at that) around the words are sketches of fairy wings. Yeah.]

{>Haha! I guess requesting two classes was a little much.<}
{>They didn't need more Care of Magical Creatures professors but a spot was open for flying.<}
{>So come Monday I expect you all to be there with your brooms and smiling faces! I'm even giving you time to pick them up at home over break!<}
{>No excuses. Flying might not be mandatory for upper years but it's the fun you all need to keep going with your studies!<}
{>You know what they say about all work and no play.<}
{>Autographs to everyone who does well first day.<}
{>Oh. Right. I should introduce myself.<}
{>Peter Banks at your service!<}
{>Yes. The quidditch player and yeah I'm taking a break from that to teach the next generation of fine flyers.<}
{>I know you won't disappoint.<}

{>Really?<}
{>Sounds interesting and ridiculously advanced!<}
{>And I'd love to experience new things!<}
{>There's nothing better!<}

there are
CERTAIN RISKS
involved.

{>What kind and how serious?<}

there are some who find the experience
TOO REAL, TOO INTENSE.
they go mad from it.
I SUPPOSE THAT'S WHY IT'S NOT USED IN SCHOOL.
pity, really.

{>That's all?<}
{>Sounds like fun!<}
{>Maybe I'll learn some things my teachers could never quite get through my skull along the way.<}

let me know when you'd like
YOUR LESSON.

{>Anytime!<}
{>The only thing I had planned before term starts back up was revisiting the Forbidden Forest.<}
{>But I can catch up the centaurs anytime.<}

come along to my chambers
TONIGHT
then, and bring a book.
SOMETHING YOU'D LIKE TO EXPERIENCE.
i'll see if i can't give you
AN INTERESTING EVENING.

{>Sure thing!<}
{>I'll be there.<}
{>You should probably mention your name!<}
{>What if I don't feel comfortable going to a stranger's quarters?<}

[Okay, he has to laugh out loud for that one. Cute, very cute.]

YOU PROBABLY SHOULDN'T FEEL COMFORTABLE
even knowing my name.
RHYS RHYDDERCH.
i'm one of the potions professors, i believe we met briefly
SHORTLY AFTER YOU WERE HIRED
when you were being introduced to everyone.

{>Haha! So it's you!<}
{>I just knew there was something interesting about you!<}
{>And why shouldn't I feel comfortable with you?<}
{>What exciting secrets are you hiding hm?<}

you can't possibly imagine
I'D TELL YOU NOW
can you? No, no.
COME INTO MY PARLOR,
said the spider to the fly.

{>I do have a certain fondness for spiders.<}
{>Did you know there's a colony of Acromantulas in the forest?<}
{>They're vicious! Haha!<}

of course i knew.
ACROMANTULA VENOM IS EXCEEDINGLY USEFUL,
and a challenge to obtain.
DO YOU LIKE VICIOUS CREATURES, MR. BANKS?

{>Maybe I'll convince them to give some up next time I visit the colony.<}
{>Consider it a thank you for welcoming me to the school!<}
{>And just liking the vicious ones wouldn't be fair to the rest!<}
{>I like ALL creatures.<}

you don't discriminate.
HOW AMUSING.

{>Why would I?<}
{>All of them have their own skills and talents and uses!<}

very true but most people
HAVE PERSONAL PREFERENCES.
personally i find
UNAMUSING MOTHERFUCKERS
completely intolerable.

{>Haha! They're not intolerable!<}
{>They just need to be taught how to loosen up!<}
{>I only find intolerant classist bastards intolerable myself.<}
{>Good thing creatures don't discriminate!<}

how delightfully naive.
OF COURSE THEY DO.
and here I thought you talked to centaurs regularly.

{>Centaurs are people not creatures!<}
{>People have that as a bad habit.<}
{>I don't talk much with the older ones that do anyway.<}

WE'RE ALL CREATURES.
every one of us.
EVER SEEN A PARLIAMENT OF RAVENS?

{>I can't argue with that too much.<}
{>It's a fine line that's never quite clear.<}
{>Still I stand by systematic discrimination as being something unique to only a kinds.<}
{>I spent a couple days with one once when I was young!<}
{>That was fun. I learned a lot.<}

there are many species that
DRIVE OUT AND KILL THE WEAK.
not just the sentient ones.
DISCRIMINATION IS BUILT INTO A WOLF PACK.
i would argue that it is sentience that allows us to either fine tune our ability to see differences
OR INFORM US THAT BLOOD IS BLOOD, IT'S ALL THE SAME BEAUTIFUL COLOR.
i take it you've never seen a
PROPER PARLIMENT
then, not simply a group of birds living and hunting together.

{>That's just life in the wild.<}
{>They aren't judging for silly things.<}
{>There's a difference between survival and discrimination.<}
{>The latter has no true base behind it.<}
{>But I agree with that about the blood.<}
{>We all bleed the same and judging on it is the worst stupidity.<}
{>And people have the luxury of helping even the weak become strong enough to survive.<}
{>If they choose to use it.<}
{>Don't forget that!<}

{>And maybe I haven't. Seemed proper to me but twenty isn't nearly long enough to experience everything there is about even a small forest!<}
