Three ♒

[wwistful]

Congratulations on surviving another year, students. I'm sure you'll appreciate your break. However, I would not want for you to become bored.

First, Second, Third and Fourth Years:
Review chapters three through to six of The Essential Defence Against the Dark Arts. Be sure to remember the essentials, you will be greeted with a quiz.

Fifth, Sixth and Seventh Years:
Review chapter nine of The Essential Defence Against the Dark Arts with great care. There will be a paper in regards to it.

On top of that, because you will be without the use of magic throughout the holidays, I would like for you to consider a question.
In a hypothetical dangerous situation, how would you defend yourself without the use of magic? I expect answers sent to this entry, those who fail to will be finding the answer the hard way.

[Private to Teachers]
If any of the more childish members of the staff have plans for the upcoming teacher prison camp, take my advice, just don't.
We're adults, honestly. If any of you have an nasty little plans you should consider a career change.

(Cough) Could you narrow down the hypothetical situation any further...? Because I can think of quite a few situations that would all require very different responses.

It shouldn't have to be stated, really. But certain people...

Thank you for the heads up, Professor!

Do you honestly expect students to do that?
Like, realistically, everyone would just do it the night before your class.

You are always so gloom and doom, Murdoc darling!!
I am sure everything will be fine and we will have a lot of fun.
And there's no need to call it a prison camp, sweetheart, I know for a fact you've been through much worse than staying with old classmates and talking to your fellow teachers!
Lighten up a little, okay baby??

DON'T BE SO DRAMATIC, MURDOC.
IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT TEAM BUILDING AND BECOMING BETTER TEACHERS!
AND KARAOKE.

What exactly would you consider the essentials, sir? Some folk have different ideas of what's the most important.

And, sir, I'd defend myself the way I always do. I prefer not to use crutches.

"Plans"
Well that's a pretty vague description.

[bev_rage]

ok so
im not even a student yet and i already have gomework homework???

That is a very good question, Professor Donoghue, but I think the answer would probably depend on what sort of danger we would be facing. Would the threat be adversarial or environmental?
