ALSDFJKG!!!

*anybody passing through a certain fourth-floor corridor will be able to see a tall man in flaming green robes trying to wrestle his journal out of the mouth of a statue of Pegasus... one of the realistic ones that includes the fangs and the scales*

Oh. Okay. Nice to meet you too.... I think you do need help sir. That statue doesn't look like it wants to give it up.

*pulls out wand*

*hefts the back cover of his journal, which was torn off back while Vivi was watching ~~in the thread below~~; rueful* It really does... I never knew my words were that tasty! *chuckles*

*giggles*
Oh, good, looks like you've got it! Though, do you need help repairing it?

Part of it, anyway!! *determined stance* If it'll just let go of the rest of it... or open its mouth long enough for a Freezing charm..... *raises brows at her, wondering how much experience she has in wizarding combat*

Right! Leave it to me!

*shoots bludgeoning charm at it*

Excellent shot!! *as the creature rears up, slashing the air with bronze talons, opening its mouth for a silent shriek* All right, take this -- Accio Journal!!

*it shoots into his hand and he nods at Seras -- quick, freeze the beast before it's too late--*

~*is a tad too slow*

*winds up sprawled across the corridor from being swiped at with a stone tail*

*GASP!! -- instinctively throws a shield spell in front of her, but that leaves him open as the enraged statue rears again and he dives out of the way*

*rolls and brings out pistol, shoots chunks off statue*

*egad, you've done it now, statue is NOT HAPPY -- and Gai grins: EXCELLENT SHOT, you've given him just the opening he needs--*

PETRIFICUS TOTALUS!!!

*now frozen, but still NOT HAPPY*

*frozen tableau for a moment as Gai holds his wand at ready in case anything else happens*

*pants and gets to her feet, blinks at Gai as she puts her pistol away*

There you are! ^_^ *polishes wand to get stone dust off of it then trains it at the statue- just in case*

*is staring at the pistol*

Now that's what I call being prepared!! Amazing -- I didn't know Muggle weapons would even work at Hogwarts!

*uncomfortable, shifts and holsters weapon; rubs back of her neck nervously*

Oh, erm, they're not electronics....

Hm? *all lit up with professional fascination*

Hrm... you're not a muggle born are you? *half hopeful*

I am indeed!! But few of the Muggle weapons I know of would work here.

Oh... erm... *sweatdrop; can't actually remember how guns work, just that they don't work on electronics*

It's rather complicated to explain....

..Well, the ones that... *waves hands around* ..I don't know the words. But they make them out of a tube and some powder and a bullet....

[[*talking about zip guns*]]

Oh, erm, I think you mean zip guns.... This is a pistol.

Yes, that! Muggle gangsters use them to get firearms past inspections, but I thought nothing more complicated than a firework would operate here.... Hmm, I'll bet we have a class on Muggle weaponry later on in my Auror training!

Um. Most probably.... *sweatdrop, shifty*

Well, I have to go. I need to re-enforce the wards around greenhouse five.... I think someone has been stealing some of the plants.

You don't say!! Good grief... who would do a thing like that? Need an extra hand?

Erm. No. I've got it covered. Though if they break through my wards I shall have to consider the unfortunate possiblity that it is not a student stealing the plants.

Thank you for offering.
