All this reminds me of when.... no, it couldn't be. The Hokage should have it safely hidden away. Besides, last time it only affected Lee and I..... that is, I think....

*DYNAMIC POSE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GREAT HALL*

WELCOME to all our guests this week!!! It is tremendously exciting to have so many interested people here to observe our fantastic school! And if any student is harmed because of this, you'll have to answer to me.

Speaking of observing, I am thrilled at the work all of my former students have been doing since Noin took over the class. I've seen you out as I patrolled the grounds, and you've all been doing splendidly!!~

However, abandoning full-time teaching has left me with a gaping hole in my daily activities, and we all know what that means. Desultory inaction is not for the glorious, proud Green Beast of Hogwarts. As of today, I am now the Teacher's Assistant for the Pre-Auror Training class!!! Between myself and Professor Albarn, we'll make sure that all of you are fully prepared for the challenges to come!


[[Strike barely hackable (attitude more so). Whee!]]

Make the most of this important chance to learn life skills that will be valuable to you even if you don't become a parent! You never know when you'll be glad not to be completely clueless about what to do when a weeping infant is placed in your arms. It may mean the difference between LIFE AND DEATH!!!

And to the students who took part in the flying test the other day -- you'll never know how proud I am of your courage and skill!! You have improved in leaps and bounds, but it is important not to become complacent. Flying is an art that will always serve you well, so keep up the excellent work!

*walks into his temporary quarters after a heavy workout and a shower, a towel draped over his neck, glancing out at the bright Tahiti sunlight... he wants missions like these more often, especially when Lee and Tenten get to come along as part of his cover story*

*eyedart left and right, opens a secret panel and checks his journal, which is hidden away along with other proof of his identity*


..Hm, the students will be enjoying the beginning of their much-needed break this week, gathering their strength and TAKING PART IN THE FESTIVITIES OF THEIR YOUTH... I hope the presents I sent have all arrived on--

*double-take*


Wait -- casualties at Hogsmeade? Death Eaters!? WHAT'S GOING ON??


[[Gai's gift-list will be coming up soon when I manage to write it. For now, they are delayed in the owl post. And YOSH, I'm back! Will be posting with the rest of my characters within the next few days.]]

*nostalgic sigh* Not even an hour to spend here, and Hogwarts... I can't risk it until I get rid of... *illegible* rules about using journals *grumble* overseas classified business *scribble* of all the ridiculous convoluted....

*stares at calendar*

And I won't be there.....

NO!! Can it be said that my friends will move to their next year at Hogwarts -- and some on to the glorious anticipation of their future lives -- without acknowledgment from Konoha's proud green beast!? Impossible -- a TRAVESTY!! Let it not be said that Maito Gai allows the bond between himself and his friends to be broken by mere distance!!! My beloved comrades, though personal obligations may rend us asunder, I am with you in spirit wherever you may go!!!

[[/private]]


*looms over the writing-desk at his London flat, and with a DYNAMIC flourish of his wand... well, let's just say he'll probably never get all the ink and shredded parchment out of the walls and ceiling....*


*and within a week, shortly after exams, each of his friends and comrades back at Hogwarts will receive a glitzy, shiny, eye-searingly flashy and utterly heartfelt bright green HOWLER proclaiming Gai's pride in their accomplishment in terms that will no doubt be heard in Timbuktu!*


[[Consider this a stopgap post as I find my way back into the game. The letters include upbeat personalized messages, can probably be muffled by Silencio if the spell is really powerful, and may come at any time and reach their intended recipients -- including staff members -- anywhere, so have fun picking just the right moment for your character to be bowled over by one~!

That fountain of hot chocolate down in that one dark corridor near the Slytherin common room?


..Um. I did that. I think.


Everyone, use Lumos to get through the mess until someone can figure out how to undo the Transfiguration!! And don't worry, there's a cleaning charm that will get rid of chocolate stains ...isn't there? -- I'll be right there after as soon as I'm done with this--!! *trails off as his attention is snagged by whatever he was busy with*


[[Result of this. So not only is there a flood of hot tepid and slowly-turning-cold-and-turgid formerly hot chocolate in that particular hall, but it's coming from where a torch used to be, so people who don't watch their step in the poorly lit area might get their feet wet. XDDD]]

These flowers and colors bring a lively touch of springtime to our admittedly musty, winter-darkened corridors! HOWEVER. It is an undeniable fact that THE PROUD GREEN BEAST OF HOGWARTS IS NOT PINK. At least, not this sort of pale, pastel pink. Or pale pastel blue. Or pale pastel yellow. Or especially pale, pastel aquamarine.

I AM A MAN OF DYNAMIC, EYE-POPPING PRIMARY HUES. Something must be DONE!!!


...

HAH, that worked sort of. No meek, pale colours for my zealous spirit -- the long, dark winter is slipping away and this is the time to charge headlong into a glorious new season of HOPE!!! *PROUD GREEN MULTICOLOURED POSE*


[[Not content with the exploding egg, Gai managed to charm his hair and robes to flash primary colors like a strobe light. Enjoy.]]

They should put this in the Hogwarts student introduction booklet: every year or so, you are all likely to go MAD!!!! IT SHOULD HAVE A NAME: the Annual... um, the Great Periodic.... SOMETHING, and then people would be prepared when the suddenly can't remember who they really are!!!

..BUT. My tactic of leaving instructions for myself last time this happened paid off handsomely. Thanks to writing everything down last time, I was more prepared for finding myself in what I thought was a strange place and learning to use magic all over again. SEE, LEE??? Taking notes is IMPORTANT!!!

And yet... people still got hurt. Could I have prevented it? Why wasn't I more careful!? It's a good thing Madame Pomfrey's memory came back when it did... the way the stitches reacted with those boys' innate magic, they could have... *shudders*

More material for next time. No... Muggle... first... aid....

What a disaster.... for this to happen to Lee, in the passive state he is in.... There are NO WORDS strong enough to describe the 'family' who would do this to him!!! And Rinali as well! How did I not know that they were related!? And at the precise moment when he needs the support of everyone in his life... he cannot believe in himself, and begins to push them away.....

Will she succeed where I have failed?

This is another new journal, so maybe it will actually work and you will be able to read this.

WHERE ARE YOU??

I should talk to the Counselor. The Ministry has pamphlets about depression, but they are too general to be any use. If it's this bad, I cannot fail him through incomplete understanding. I... as much as I care about him, I cannot do this alone....

This has gone far beyond poor Neji. Ah, my Lee... loss and rejection have ruled his young life. His foster parents, resenting his magical disability. His best friend... disappearing for years, trying to kill him, and then disappearing again after they'd reconciled.... other friends leaving, one by one... perhaps only his youthful spirit sustained him for this long.... confound the Ministry, keeping me back in London after the paperwork was in already.... ..does he think that even I will leave him? These wounds are so deep, so deep....

I can't lose him....

Only another week, then the winter break and we will -- but...

*swears blackly, then covers the words with a heavy strikeout when he realizes what he's said*

That assignment.... I had forgotten.....


[[Due to ministry work and his all too convenient journal malfunctions, Gai has NO CLUE what has been happening since he left Hogwarts on Wednesday. He will be arriving on the castle grounds as you read this, nearly frozen solid from flying all the way to Scotland in the dead of winter, visibly shaken by Lee's recent signs of major depression, and with his hair significantly shorter in front.

[[unhackable, on a security-charmed paper tucked away in his journal]]

Of all people, to take advice from him... but it's true. If my journals always go wrong, they're not secure enough to trust with what's important -- like mysteries and apologies and Lee and Neji's safety. Madame Vance still doesn't know who the pit was intended for. We've all taken dangerous and sensitive assignments. It might have been them. It might have been me. If she finds paper airplanes in there, I shall EXPLODE.

A few hours of patrolling, and then.....

Everyone who still likes zombie movies after that last one egad.... you should know that REAL zombies are VERY DIFFERENT from the ones on the computer screen!!! They're called Inferi, and an Inferius is a very scary thing... a dead person without a mind or a heart, completely controlled by somebody steeped in Dark magic! *sepulchural voice* But if you see an Inferius stalking the noble corridors of Hogwarts today, do not be afraid, for the Proud Green Inferius of Hogwarts answers to nobody except Sgt. Johnson, and is sworn to protect this castle and its occupants from BEYOND. THE. GRAVE. MWAHAHAHAHAHA.

[[Private, partially (and inadvertently) hackable to friends]]

AUGH. Training this week was more grueling than ever. I didn't even have a chance to work on tracing... well, Madame Vance has been looking at it. Maybe she had time.

Is it my imagination, or have some of the Hogwarts staff been acting a little bit... odd? Hexing one another in the courtyards -- they're supposed to be protectors and sources of inspiration for the youth under their care! What is this world coming to!?

Strange... how the world changes as one's youth passes by... Three years ago I would have laughed! But there's a point where laughter becomes cruelty. There was a time when I, too, took offense at the smallest slight to my honor. Sometimes, though.... sometimes the obvious answer makes things worse. I could get mad at him for being mad at me, but isn't it more important to remember that he's my friend?

Does that mean... I'm more mature than Kakashi???? *boggles*


[[/private]]


Of all the strange holidays they observe in England, Halloween has got to be the best. Costumes, jokes, even more weirdness than usual, and a chance to face your darkest fears in a secure environment.... what's not to like? BE SAFE WITH YOUR PRANKS, PEOPLE! If it's fun, it should be fun for everyone, not just you. What better way to spread hilarity and joy?

Some of my London comrades are planning to celebrate with a scary movie night!! There's something I never did before! Ah, how I wish my good friends at Hogwarts could share this amazing experience!! Ooh, ooh!! Speaking of experiences, who else is helping with the haunTED HOUSE?????

*a few VERY LARGE scribbles, then something that sounds remarkably like a book being whacked repeatedly with a wand*

Gah, it's doing it again! My journal is JINXED!! JINXED, I SAY!!! Aaaaugh, why me? I thought I got rid of my journal problems when I THREW THE LAST ONE OUT.

No time to search this week. Who knew there would be an assignment right here in London!? And with the old journal acting up... egad, I must have missed a lot. But I will find something before the autumn leaves fall, or else I shall... I shall.... run ALL THE WAY AROUND LONDON FORTY TIMES BEFORE SPRING!!!!

[[Yes, ladies and gents, this is for all intents and purposes a slightly foxed brand new journal. Gai picked it up in Diagon Alley because his old one had become unmanageable. But LITTLE DOES HE KNOW that this new one has secrets of its own.... MWAHAHAHAHA!!]]
