Hey, everyone no doubt had an amazing fortnight off. I know I certainly had some, we'll go with, well, eye-opening in weird ways I guess.

And then we have the new term coming up. I've thought of some new plays and I'm looking forward to taking on Gryffindor and Slytherin, And I'm going to be taking you both more seriously than I did Hufflepuff.

And thanks to the one with the wide forehead an blonde hair. I will actually be in the Duelling competition that's coming up. Which really is an exercise in stupid, but hey, pretty sure I can make an impression, I always do.

So, New Years Eve is coming up.

I know some of you are staying at the school, but how about we stay the night at my place to bring in the New Year.

Chips, dips, chocolate and a bed room each.

How does that sound?

Jarvis can pick you up from school.

Also, I never actually got around to sending christmas presents so really you have to come so you can get your gifts.

(( The party itself is here!))

I'll never understand why everyone makes such a fuss of the Yule Ball. I fail to see the point of making everyone dress up just so that they can dance while other people stare at them. The royalty nonsense is just a big popularity contest, it doesn't have anything at all to do with merit, as many of the nominees so clearly illustrate. I, for one, am abstaining from all that rubbish and choosing to do more useful things with my time.

Sent away for two pairs of boxing gloves. Not fond of waiting. Anyone here happen to own a pair and have them on hand?

For purchase, lease, or to borrow.

If you will allow an old man to regale you with a tale of his youth, I should like to inform you all that when I was a student here we had to FIT into our robes to be accepted. What has the education system come to, I ask! I thought I'd be professoring...professing? Not nannying!
Is it too late to call shenanigans? I'm calling shenanigans. I resign. I quit.

I'll be in my office if anyone over the wise age of eleven has anything of worth to mention.

I guess there should be congratulations to the pufflehuffs and they're lucky victory against us. But that being said, we have the most impressive entrance to the pitch.

Greg, I am going to hex bits of you turquoise by the way, to avenge my face, you understand that right?

I want to tell you all to vote Bruce for Yule Ball queen. But none of you will go for that.

So I'm going to say vote him for King then.

Really, now, Hufflepuffs, you can call yourselves Badger Moles all you want. We all know who played the cleaner match out there yesterday. Flinging Bludgers at the Chasers' heads inside the goal-scoring area? That's hardly anything to cheer and stomp about.

Natasha, Tony, I hope you're both all right. And same for you, Vladimir. I honestly wasn't aiming to hurt you.

As for the rest of team Ravenclaw: we played the cleaner, tighter match yesterday. That's something to be proud of, all right? We're not the ones bragging about winning a match where we tried to take someone's heads off.

The chances of me getting a turkey the size of Rogers over Thanksgiving is high.

Everyone not American might not get it. But history aside, a turkey the size of non-muscular Gryffindors is really the only reason to celebrate the day.

Please tell me I'm not the only one looking forward to edible monster birds?

Who here has a sewing kit? Or, actually, who's really good at mending spells? I've been trying to do them myself but my mends aren't holding up all that great.

If anyone can help or has advice on how to make the mends stronger, I'd really appreciate it.

Hogsmeade is next weekend, and I'll skip Quidditch practice to go. I don't care if we play the week after, I'll do late night practices after classes if that's the case. I'm ready for the match regardless of if I skip a practice.

The bonfire the other night was fun, I went through the fire first thing. Doing something with the possibility of danger gives such an adrenaline rush. Finding out your friend burnt off his eyebrows after is a bit of a downer though. I've done my fair share of dumb ideas as well, and I'm not talking about letting someone use an apple on top of my head for target practice. That's fairly simple compared to attempting to jump from one broom to another broom while in mid flight, that was fun though.

Alright, it's time to get down to work before the holidays kick in. I need updates from my the Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students about their project I assigned at the beginning of the year. Come Spring, we'll be brewing antidotes and testing them on the animals themselves. Before you start a petition, I'll have a properly brewed antidote to administer if any of you fail to do the assignment correctly.


On another holiday note, Thanksgiving in America is coming up. I'm not big on family gatherings but I enjoy turkey. I know a few staff members and the odd student come from overseas, so is anyone interested in doing something?

I must apologize for the delay in addressing the Halloween incident. You can rest easy knowing that I've been hard at work on the matter ever since it happened, contacting the Ministry and coming to the best course of action.

The Ministry and I believe that a powerful, dark magical object was brought into the school as a prank intended to make the ministry look like a fool for disregarding the incident at camp. The situation got out of hand, as you are all well aware of. As such, the Ministry has decided that in the next couple of weeks, security in the castle is going to be tightened considerably. Random trunk checks will be conducted and anyone leaving or entering the castle will be searched thoroughly, as will mail.

Finally, I will be questioning everyone personally. I will find out who did this, and I will make sure they are punished accordingly, expulsion being the minimum.

If you have any questions or information regarding the incident, you can ask here. If you have information, see me in my office immediately.

I have some pretty strange dreams, you can imagine, I'm sure. I've had a couple odd ones lately, and I know there's multiple studies both science and magic related behind dreams and what they mean. Well, I guess one of them was more of a nightmare; I woke up terrified, I don't know why, really -- but, this massive american purple tyrannosaurus rex was trying to talk me into going near the window so he could eat me! All American accented and everything it was weird! I woke up after a while of him trying his best strangely terrified.

And THEN, right? I was sleeping the other night, as you do, casual like, right? And THE SAME CHEEKY T-REX was subbing for Professor Donoghue! This time he was a lot smaller though, and he had a cowboy hat on... He kept getting mad at me because I kept telling people to stay away from him.

I don't see how those could be related to any form of science or magic other than me eating too much candy before bed.

Ravenclaw and Slytherin. It's been some time since I've assigned you work. I'd hate for your minds to wander while your professor is busy with near endless preperations, so I've taken the time to set you some busywork and warn you about your future curriculum.

First years, we will be studying the correct ways to treat and bandage wounds in an emergency. There will be practicals and you will be practising. I trust that the idea of bandaging a classmate won't throw you all into veritable fits of excitement.

In preperation for this I ask, Why put pressure on a bleeding wound?

Second years I'm sure you'll be thrilled to know we will be studying Cornish Pixies. If I'm feeling particularly magnanimous I may set one lose and have you attempt to catch it. I warn you, they do bite.

Third years can you tell me what the Lumos Duo spell is most commonly used in defence of? The answer will provide you with the subject of our next studies.

Fourth years as you've been informed, we are studying curses with a special attention to the unforgivable curses. I want you to name one and write me at least ten lines on why it has been deemed unforgivable.

Fifth years we will be studying the effective use of jinxes in battle and defence. I want you to name a jinx and write twenty lines on theoretical a situation it would be beneficial to use in.

Sixth years it is my great pleasure to announce that we are slowly ready to move on from the theory of nonverbal spells and we will begin to practise them. We will be starting with very basic spells, but remember that they take an immense amount of concentration. I advise that you rest up before classes.
You may rest, of course, once you write ten lines on the importance of nonverbal spells and what kind of things are important to perfect them. For example: To become proficient at nonverbal spells, one must become particularly good at focusing.

Seventh years will be going over theory with me and on Friday we will be having an in-class discussion about the psychological impacts of Dark Magic and curses. It will be a draining class, perhaps emotionally so. As with the sixth years, I advise you rest up and fortunately, you are free from the wrath of assignments.

Thank you and remember to ASK if you are in a state of complete and utter confusion. I would rather suffer through a stupid question than receive unsatisfactory work. It makes us both look bad when I grade you and I do so hate using red ink.


[[ooc: Homework goes here!! Also this is either back or forward dated so it doesn't clash with the event.]]

Now that everyone is done celebrating boorish feats of strength, I was wondering if I could get 5-10 volunteers to help me test a new spell that I've been working on. It's a very simple security spell, and I can guarantee with 82% certainty that you won't get hurt if you agree to be a subject. It's not intended to be harmful, we'll put it that way. (You might, however, experience residual tingling in the extremities, and possibly loosened bowels. I'm still working out the kinks.

For liability reasons, I'll only take volunteers third year and up (I would say fifth and up, but, well, I wouldn't want to exclude anyone my age). My name is Billy Harris, Slytherin 5th year, and if you leave your name, house, and year I will contact you within the next few days to sort out the experiment.

 Just going to say, I'm looking forward to this weekends match. Really, being kind of honest here.

And yeah, I know it's late. But watching the Ravenclaw/Hufflepuff teachers win, was exhilarating, I was on the edge of my seat. Riveting stuff.

One more thing. Going to say that I can easily say I'm proud of my girls and Peter at training last week. We're going to sweep this year for sure.
