This isn't like you, Miss Serket.

[dou8letrou8le]

What isn't like me?

[quasistellar]

The tone of this journal entry lacks your usual boisterous nature. Are you feeling well?

[dou8letrou8le]

I'm alw8ys feeling well, Professor.
I am only interested in everyone's progress of summer.
It's not like I am trying to hide anything.

[quasistellar]

If you're sure, then. Things are lovely in Oxford this time of year; you and Sybille are always welcome for a visit.

[dou8letrou8le]

Do you like her, Professor?
Or do you just toler8te her?

[quasistellar]

You know that she, Professor Donoghue, and I were in the same year, all of us in Slytherin, when we were at Hogwarts, no? We got into all kinds of mischief. So yes, Vriska, I do like her.

[dou8letrou8le]

What was she like 8ack then?

[quasistellar]

She was, more often than not, the mastermind of the schemes we managed to pull off. Sybille was charming, crafty, and fancied herself smarter than most of the teachers in the school. She had a way with people - she was very good at getting them to trust her, while keeping most at arms' length, and that's never changed. But once you've gained her trust, it's hard to break.
