Bars of the Cage

I finally received my journal back from the head family.  They don't seem to care understand that I require possession of this journal -- no, if they want to see the magic bound in it as well as what is written, they must receive it intact. Have I missed anything of importance?

Neji's relationship with the head family makes Delita's brow twitch a little. brbusinivalice August 23 2009, 06:03:45 UTC
You have not been missing much, Hyuuga. Though due to the incident in the Charms Class with the Lightning curse, we seem to have acquired a Health and Medical Magic professor.

Is the curse the actual spell, or the appearance of the new professor?

If there's one thing Delita hates, it's social classes and such. :| brbusinivalice August 23 2009, 06:17:02 UTC
The spell, of course, though with the bedlam caused in response to this it might as well be considered more, as well.

The professor...I cannot say. She seems hardworking enough, however.

Interesting... I am curious as to how challenging her class will be, and if we must match her work ethic with our own. Medical Magic would be extremely valuable in the practical sense.

Everything has been going fairly well, thank you, Sakura. I have been keeping up with most of my studies despite the absence of my journal, though I am missing some assignments...

[writing becomes dark, as if being written with difficulty]

If it's not too much trouble, can I copy some of the required assignments I may have missed?

Oh good, I'm glad.

Sure thing! When do you need them from? I'll make the copies myself and get them to you.

Restricted Section?

Thank you, but there is no need to trouble yourself. May I meet you in the common room sometime soon and see what exactly I have missed?

I especially need some of the assignments from the new Magical Health professor...

Something of importance is always missed.

My apologies professor; I had no choice in the matter.

You've missed the same things that always happen here: magic, chaos, and... Magically-induced chaos.

... What kind of spell?

fate_cagedbird August 23 2009, 14:17:25 UTC
Sounds like Hogwarts... it is good to know that not much has changed in my absence.

[PRIVATE TO CATTY] The kind of spell, Catty, where if I do not do as the head family orders, they can destroy my brain cells. I wear my headband to hide the mark of the bird in the cage.

[PRIVATE TO NEJI] Perhaps I should post an entry to explain this... I am tired of the endless prodding of my past.

scroll_heir August 23 2009, 19:08:40 UTC
Nope, so you should be able to catch up on everything just fine.

[Private to Neji]
... I...

That's really kind of sick, actually.

[PRIVATE TO CATTY]

Extremely so. Yet not enough, appearently, for the Asian Ministry of Magic to step in. Clans always receive special exemptions.

Neji! You missed some of the greatest pranks played! And well, okay, it was pretty serious things as well, there was an outbreak of truth-telling, for about a week, but I don't know who did it, because if it was a prank it was completely awesome! Although I could have made it better, because I'm Uzumaki Naruto!

...How've you been since we last talked, Neji?

fate_cagedbird August 23 2009, 14:26:02 UTC
I have a feeling that if you were to play pranks, Naruto, you would attempt them on me... and fail horribly.

Everything has been normal for me, thank you....

[PRIVATE TO NARUTO] [The head family is exerting its power over me for the simple reason to throw me back in my place. I was foolish to think there was a way to escape my destiny. I had thought that, though my exiling from Japan to here, I might be outside the range of the spell, but now I know they can activate it no matter what the range or distance between us. My cage is not Japan; my cage is the entire world.]

....so in that respect, I'm fine.

Would I play pranks on you, Neji?

Well actually I did, and you haven't caught me yet

[private to Neji] [You can't give up, Neji. If you give up and trust everything to destiny again then the head family is going to win over you, because you're giving them the power. So if you pick yourself up every time you fall or when they make you fall and take each day at a time, eventually something that seems inescapable now, you'll see a way through. But until you do I'll be here for you. We'll all be here for you. That's a promise, and that's my wizard way. I won't go back on my word.]

it's not fun if you don't show any emotions

((ooc: Strikes readable.))

[Private to Naruto]
I am not giving up, exactly... consider it more of a realization of the inevitable. Though I will seek a way to free myself of this curse, the fact remains that every action is pre-ordained; if I had not been born branch family, I would not be searching for a way out. If I had been born head family, I would be attending a prestigious wizarding school in Asia,where I belong.
