I am really starting to wish I had gone back to the convent for Christmas... Really, my refuge from all this had been music before today, but now I can't hear my own music over... whatever it is they're playing.

I can't even concentrate enough to pray for the ability to concentrate at this point! I actually started crying earlier...[ ooc: When

There are bagpipe players droning on everywhere, and I can't take it anymore... I need to be able to study!

Oh.

What happened in the castle?

[blade_of_faith]

Well, each day we've been attacked by a new anomaly. 10 leaping lords, 9 dancing ladies... a whole slew of birds.. 5 rings that I'd rather not go into fine detail about, thanks... but today. Today. 11 bagpipe players. I don't know how, but no matter where they are, the music just permeates the whole castle. And since there are less places for the sound to go at the bottom of the castle... well, the dungeons are getting an earful. I just... I don't know what to do... when will the madness stop...?

[nordic_tiger]

I'm grateful that I went home for the holiday. Maybe you should try casting a spell who counteracts the sound? I'm quite positive that it'll stop soon, though.

Judging from the pattern, by tomorrow there might be eleven...something. My guess, it's going to be even more annoying than bagpipes.

You live at a convent?

[blade_of_faith]

When I'm not at Hogwarts, yes... I prefer to stay here as often as possible, but I can't during the summer months, obviously, so I go back to them for two months. I don't like going there much, because I know if they knew about my magic... well, it'd not be pretty. And I've had enough of that in my life as is...

If there's a god, don't you think he would have better things to do than help you concentrate on music?

[blade_of_faith]

... [ Cough. ]

Yes well, it's not my music I'd like to concentrate on. It's studying. I missed quite a bit of class during my month's stay in the hospital, so I've been trying to use the break to catch up... but my plans are slowly derailing as more and more things happen inside the castle...

[tigerinmyhand]

Still. There are broken families and dying children all over the world, and you're willing to hog the attention of their last resort for homework?

[blade_of_faith]

You can pray about multiple things in one sitting, you know. Hmhm~.
