_{[Dirk has glanced from his homework to the journal his uncle got him for over an hour now. Writing something in there sounded like a lot more fun than trying to catch up on assignments after missing so much school. He hasn't a clue of what to say, so he just rolls with the first thing that comes to mind.]}


I can't wait for the school year to end.
It's getting ridiculously difficult to keep up with all of my assignments, especially knowing that in September, I start at Hogwarts.
Regular school work is boring in comparison to the idea of learning magic.
Plus, summer will be awesome for reasons.

It's as good as it can be.
I don't know.

They'll probably kick me out if I miss anymore school.
Plus, I still have a lot of make-up assignments left.
If I don't complete them I'll get poor marks.

[clockspinner]

so what if you get kicked out
hogwarts doesnt care what marks you got
most magical kids are homeschooled anyway

[givesyouaboner]

Ugh.
There's no point in this.
I'll just. Play stupid video games until June.

[clockspinner]

sounds like an excellent plan little bromo sapien
kick bros ass on the xbox for me before i get back

[Filtered]

bro and i are here for you man
if you need to talk you can go to him
or ask him to make this thing private if youd rather talk to me
okay??

strikethroughs are readable to anyone

[givesyouaboner]

Free reign to raid your game stash, then?
I still don't have everything.
Or maybe my games are here somewhere.
Everything's still a huge mess...

I just
Why can't you
June is taking too long to
I really hate everythi

I'll ask him when he decides to show his butt up again.
I don't know where he is.

[clockspinner]

sure thing
just dont save over my game files or ill pee in your bed
there should be plenty of room on the memory card though

shit
im sor
i would

[Filtered]

ill write you a letter and send sprite home with it
well do it the old fashioned way
like pen pals
you can write me a letter and send it back with my owl

[givesyouaboner]

That would defeat the purpose.
Don't you know?
I have the only bed.
Uncle Dirk decided not to bother getting another.
You get to sleep on the floor.

_{[He obviously isn't serious about that; he's just trying to make the effort to act normal]}

But yeah.
I won't do that.
I have to have proof that I can out-game you too.



That sounds okay, I guess, just as long as no one else reads what I say.
Can you prevent that or is it just a matter of chance?

[clockspinner]

nah its pretty legit
sprites a clever little bastard anyway
hes made the flight home dozens of times
just dont accidentally impale him or anything
bro will never let you live it down

[givesyouaboner]

What?
How would I even do that?
Not that I want to.
That just sounds ridiculous.

[clockspinner]

clearly lesson one over the summer is getting a sword in your hand little man
lesson two is teaching you how to not accidentally kill things with it

...
long story short four years ago i skewered the owl that brought my letter

[givesyouaboner]

We could forgo that all together and not handle swords at all.
No accidental killings.


Wow.
Good job.

[clockspinner]

no can do little man
striders are raised by the sword
youve missed out on your formative years of training
well have to fix that

[givesyouaboner]

I don't want my arm to get cut off.
I've never even touched something sharper than a dinner knife.

[clockspinner]

ive been using swords since i was half your age
you think my arms ever been cut off
time to pony up cowboy

[givesyouaboner]

Obviously not.
I'm not as cool as you though.
But that doesn't mean it couldn't happen.
Can we use fake ones? Or ones that aren't sharp?

[clockspinner]

youre gonna have to move up to the big leagues some day
but sure ill go easy on you at first

[givesyouaboner]

Fine.
Then I'll just be better at it than you.
