somehow, I don't think I'll be able to look at fish again the same.

The bonfire is really quite lovely, but I've already caught two students attempting to burn textbooks of all things in the flames! They claimed they were from last year, but still... Why would someone do such a horrible thing as burn textbooks?

Hey. They're not your books, what's the problem? I'll burn mine if I wanna. And they were so from last year. D:

Whoa, hey now. No need to get hostile. Ami's just looking out for the books.

[[Chizuru's only being diplomatic because she can't tell from the icon if Youji is a dude or a chick. If she knew he was a dude she'd probably just say "stfu". XD]]

Ah, yes, that's true, but...there are plenty of other flammable materials to, ah, play with. And you might need those textbooks in future years. OWLS and NEWTS do cover material from previous years, after all...

Fish?

[mercuriusrising]

Ah -- yes. M-my halloween costume this year was that of a mermaid. The school apparently decided I might want to -- ah -- experience it more fully.

[food_coma]

Oh.. Ah, yes. The school does come up with strange ideas, doesn't it?

[mercuriusrising]

Yes. Now I know a completely different meaning of the term 'fish out of water', I'm afraid.

Meredy didn't think they burned things because Quickie jumped in and was fine! ...Should Meredy get a new set of textbooks?

[mercuriusrising]

Th-that might be best, if yours are burnt now. Sometimes it's best not to take things at face value, at this school.

[mercuriusrising]

A slight costume malfunction at the masquerade, sir.

It is such a waste...I can't imagine burning something so precious as knowledge.

[asia_intell]

Such a sin...

sometimes I really don't understand our my classmates...
