Sixteenth Spell

[Hermione has taken her radio down to the music room. Hard Harry suggested they use it to broadcast music. So she is going to do just that. She taps the radio until she gets a good frequency, then begins to play the piano.

It's a simple piece but she still sounds a bit out of practice. Not much chance for music when you're on the run]

This has been the musical stylings of Hermione Granger. Thank you for listening.

Quite a lot happened in the years I was at school. We had classes and sports like a typical school, but we had ghosts as well that were a lot more interactive than Paradisa's ghosts. The suits of armor were alive as well, and we had a poltergeist as well.

Then the students were often hexing each other in the hallway.

[gunslinger]

Sounds...exactly like what I'd expect out of a magic school.

[courageous_wit]

Yes. It was often chaotic, but they were still some of the best years of my life.

[gunslinger]

[ Hm, thinking about the Yuriev Institute. Fucked up, but at least until Sakura's death, he might agree. ]

So you graduated already? Professional sorceress or whatever?

[courageous_wit]

Oh, no. I had to forego my last year due to personal reasons.

[gunslinger]

Yeah? I'm sorry.

[courageous_wit]

It's all right. Hopefully when things settle down I can go back to school and graduate.

[gunslinger]

What then? You become a teacher, or something else?

[courageous_wit]

No. I think I would continue my campagne for the rights of magical creatures. They're treated very poorly in my world.

[gunslinger]

...Really? So you want to be an activist?

[ This is relevant to his interests. ]

[courageous_wit]

I suppose you can call it that.

[gunslinger]

I think that's great! You should always fight for what you believe in.

[courageous_wit]

Thank you. I obviously think so, too.

[gunslinger]

What sort of magical creatures do you have in your world?

[courageous_wit]

Tons! But the ones I was mainly thinking of are house-elves. They act as servants to rich wizards and are treated very poorly. The worst of it is they have their own magic but so many wizards think they're inferior so they don't even factor in that magic.

sooo sorry for the late ;o;

[gunslinger]

Sounds like a pretty idiotic mistake if you ask me. I'm surprised there hasn't been a revolution.

never late, amirite? :)

[courageous_wit]

Only because other wizards are convinced house-elves are happy this way, and the house-elves don't fight for their rights the way goblins would.

[gunslinger]

See I don't know what house-elves are like, but the elves I've met here, I can't imagine them being that subservient to anyone.

Anything called a goblin though I imagine to be pretty snarky.

[courageous_wit]

Exactly! If only the house-elves could meet the elves in this world, I'm certain they would think differently.

Goblins are very clever. They were oppressed by wizards once, but they fought back.

[gunslinger]

Well it's good that you're helping the house-elves do the same. Although wizards where you from sound kind of like jackasses at this rate.

[courageous_wit]

I wouldn't say that. I think they're just raised into those beliefs. Those who aren't raised by wizards, like myself and my friend Harry, see house-elves differently.

[gunslinger]

Prejudice is usually born of ignorance. There's just as much of a problem where I'm from. Every world's got it, I suppose.

[courageous_wit]

Yes, it's something we all have in common.
