One of the freshmen reported to me today that they saw a dementor in the woods with the Aurors.

Naturally, I had to investigate the situation. In case anyone was concerned, it turns out there is currently no evidence of a dementor on campus. Instead, I found out that there is a tall agent named Strangeways with a dramatic sense of style.

Did you sign up for the prom matchmaking service?

[Cole]

Do you have time to work on the finishing touches on my dress? I think I solved the power source problem.

[odder]

Of course not. God forbid anything fun ever comes here.

[underthehillandunderand]

How would a dementor be fun? Those things sound terrifying and I never want to meet one.

[odder]

They suck souls from people's mouths. They're very interesting.
And we know exactly how to kill them, so they'd hardly be threatening.

[underthehillandunderand]

Uh huh. Sure.

I don't think I can kill a dementor while my soul is being sucked out of my body.

I'm very much scared of them.

[odder]

At least they're one-track minded. You can stay alive against anything if you can stay a step or two ahead. Just suck its soul back.

[ghostbluster]

How is a dementor fun? Would you want to befriend it or train it?

[colemoss]

oh!! yeah!! i was just finishing with hazel's. so i can come when you want.

how'd you fix it??

Liberty/Cole

[ghostbluster]

Okay. I need to finish up this howework, then I'll be free.

I had to consider alternate power sources. The ambient magic just makes the muggle batteries drain too fast.

[...] did we have homework??

oh. yeah. i've heard people say that. but you found something else??

Re: Liberty/Cole

[ghostbluster]

I have homework? Which class are you asking for?

I did! And I'm almost certain it won't electrocute me.

[dinahdanger]

And he's very handsome.

[ghostbluster]

Is he?

[bubblewrapped]

Quick on the draw.

Knows about nets.

Caught a mimic.

I'm gonna swoon.

[bubblewrapped]

Into that Roger Rabbit villain look, huh?

[dinahdanger]

I just want to see the buggy whites of their eyes!

[ghostbluster]

I wonder if he would let me pick his brain about the experience.

[bubblewrapped]

Worth a shot, I guess. Although he seemed pretty All Business to me.

[ghostbluster]

Science is important business.

[novelling]

He does look a little like a a dementor.

[ghostbluster]

With the cloak, yes. I admire his commitment to his aesthetic, I guess, but I can see how someone was startled by seeing him in the woods.

Bert & Zach

[readingrainbows]

I [...] actually didn't. Did YOU?

Bert & Zach

[ghostbluster]

I did. I thought they would assign me someone else who signed up though. Informed consent is so important. I need to have another talk with Archie.

Bert & Zach

[readingrainbows]

I don't NOT want to go! He's improving!!! I think it's important to give CREDIT for POSITIVE PROGRESS.

Bert & Zach

[ghostbluster]

But you don't have to go with me because of a matchmaking poster with highly questionable science and ethics behind it.

You're right. He has made great strides, I think.
