AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!!! WHAT HAPPENED TO MY ARITHMANCY TEXTBOOK??? It's not here -- it's not ANYWHERE!!!! I know I had it yesterday after class! Maybe it got left in the library? Or the Great Hall? Has anyone seen it??

...I've definitely been doing too much Transfiguration revision. Now I'm even dreaming about it. What the blazes is cold and green and six feet long, and why were there vampires involved?? But at least I finished Sir Integra's book!!! It was, well, I didn't understand it, but the notes on the side were an EXCITING OPPORTUNITY to get a look at the mechanics of practical spell construction. I took a whole ream of notes. Maybe someday, I'll be able to create spells of my own!!!

Five Es, at least. That's all I need, theoretically -- but the Auror program only takes the best. *paces* Arithmancy is going to be the biggest problem -- and Illusions -- that stuff is hard. But as we keep learning from Counselor Yukari, all work and no recreation contributes to STRESS, and in the unfortunate instances when recreation can't be combined with work, one must find a way to compensate.

I KNOW!!! LET'S PLAY CHARADES!!!!!


[[Strike illegible. Per the clarified rules, Gai's Transfiguration research is secret from everybody except McGonagall, who knew from the start; and he still has a ways to go before achieving his Animagus form.

For the record: here are Gai's classes:
     Transfiguration -- McGonagall
     Potions -- Snape
     Military and Strategic Wizardry -- Integra
     Defense Against the Dark Arts -- Constantine
     Arithmancy -- who's teaching that these days?
     Care of Magical Creatures -- Marik
     Illusions and Critical Thinking -- Jareth
     Divination -- Tia Dalma

And I may have missed one or two. He's been a busy boy this term. XD]]

I saw some unclaimed books in the library earlier.

[Why am I suddenly reminded of Carmen Sandiego? XD "There was a man here this morning, he said something about needing to convert his money to Manat."]

You did?? I'll look there, then -- thanks for letting me know!!!

You're welcome.

A slanting table in the library is being propped up by a spellbook; perhaps it is yours.

And Madame Pince hasn't rescued it yet??? Good eye, Shuichi -- I'll go check!!!!

[whip-of-thorns.livejournal.com]

I do not know how long it has been there, but I will retrieve it for her.

Good call -- you know how she gets about books being misused. *shudders*

If Hotaru and Shuichi are unable to help you find your book, I should have a copy of last year's textbook you're welcome to borrow. The material is largely the same.

Ah! That would be SPECTACULAR!!!!! Thank goodness for old texts especially when I can't afford to lose the new one.
