[There's a pause, the video showing a rather comfortable looking apartment- it looks tidy, but mostly the tidy one gets from not using something. After a moment a leg comes into view followed by the familiar sound of a zap and someone cursing in English.]

Bloody damned...Great Mary that hurt, stupid little bugger!

...Is it a ghost raven? I've heard some of those are pretty good at shape changing.

[x_dilettante_x]

Hmmm, not quite sure those apply old boy. Normal Raven however are open for the debate.

[invisibill]

You definitely have me stumped, then.

[x_dilettante_x]

Come on now, give it a go.

Think about a raven- what does it do or what does it have. And then, simply compare it to what a writing desk might have.

[invisibill]

Um, feathers? Beaks? A fondness for perching in the dark and making ominous comments?

[x_dilettante_x]

[Laughs.]

Getting there, remember you're literature.

...This is a trick to make me take an English Lit test, isn't it.

[x_dilettante_x]

Do I honestly look like I"m qualified to give children any sort of test on any subject?
