The fucking dust in my classroom is multiplying, I know it.

Whoever left a bizarre Muggle contraption in the Ancient Runes room, could you please come and collect it? I don't know what it is but it's making noises at me and... I can't make it stop.

And if it was you who stole my new bottle of Firewhisky from my room, please let me know so that I may

...A muggle contraption?

[redwhiteandtea]

A muggle contraption.

[xth_skeith]

Hmm. What's it look like?

[redwhiteandtea]

Hm. Rectangular, silver, has a handle. There's a bit that pops out constantly and a lot of odd buttons.

[xth_skeith]

...Huh. A muggle contraption that isn't an old fashioned watch shouldn't be able to work here.

[redwhiteandtea]

I wouldn't call what it's doing "working".

[xth_skeith]

Heh.

Oh, how rude. My name is Haseo. You're Alfred's father, aren't you?

[redwhiteandtea]

Yes. Ah, I believe he's mentioned you. Nice to meet you. Friend?

[xth_skeith]

Yeah. I'm friends with both Peter and Alfred. They're good kids. Like family.

[redwhiteandtea]

Perhaps I'll see you around. If Alfred hasn't completely circulated the rumor that I'm an evil demon, that is.

You must have unlimited patience.

[xth_skeith]

Hahahah.

He can be a brat, but it's not hard to get him to fall into line if he's getting seriously unruly. He knows when to stop. Which is when I tell him.

Peter, on the other hand, is much more well-behaved. He's adorable. He calls me his brother.

[redwhiteandtea]

The boy has a lot of potential, but he certainly doesn't respect authority. At least not mine.

Peter is special (♥) but if he's not careful, he'll end up like his brother.

[xth_skeith]

Really? He does what I tell him. The most I've had to tell him to do a single thing is... maybe three or four times. He knows better.

Hmm, he idolizes Alfred, but he's a sweet kid at heart. I've been helpful to him, but he's been a major emotional support. :)

[redwhiteandtea]

Perhaps you should write a book on parenting, because he drives me round the bend.

Peter's a good child, but he has a lot to learn.

[xth_skeith]

All it takes is giving them love and support until punishment is necessary. :)

That's true. But he learns quickly from the people he pays attention to. A good role model is what he learns from.

I'm kinda glad he's starting to pick up a little more from me than from Alfred, honestly, but if I can keep Alfred in line, he should be okay.

Sorry to have taken part of your job over for you. They're like brothers to me, so I do all I can to help them.

[redwhiteandtea]

(*is frowning*) I give them love and support.

Still, I guess I need all the help I can get with these kids. But don't assume I don't try. That's all I'm saying.
