So I guess I'm a muggle now, 'cause I don't have a fancy magic wand and can't pull bunnies out of a hat. Which is fine and all, but "muggle"? Really? Could they have picked an uglier sounding word?

We have a few words I'm ashamed of, I fear. "Squib" isn't much of an improvement...

[knowsacrifice]

What's a "squib"?

[moonlitlunacy]

A squib is someone who is born from at least one magical parent, but who has next to no wizarding ability whatsoever. [Yes, he is Remus the Encyclopedia. He looks a tiiiny bit awkward about that fact.]

[knowsacrifice]

Why aren't they just muggles?

[angel_lawyer]

I imagine it could be worse.

[knowsacrifice]

Yeah, it probably could be.

[runswitshuriken]

They probably could've... but would we really want to hear it?

[knowsacrifice]

...I guess not.

[gredn0tforge]

Don't really want me to answer that, do you?

[knowsacrifice]

Not really, no.

[gredn0tforge]

Excellent.

Now what's this business with rabbits out of hats?

[knowsacrifice]

Where I'm from, the only people who can do magic fake it. Pulling rabbits out of hats, and stuff.

[purelineage]

I prefer filth, myself. Going to complain about that one, too?

[knowsacrifice]

Yeah, I will, actually. Sorry I can't do lame magic tricks, but I've got better things to waste my time with.

Shows how much you know. Suppose you're still learning how to read.

[knowsacrifice]

And you're still learning how to be a decent human being, right?
