I'm thinking about joining boating club. What would you guys say the, uh, physical requirements are? Is there any hope for someone who's totally not athletically inclined?

Do you know if anyone's seen that auditorium ghost since school started?

WARDED TO ROXIE

How's the mood over there? I bet Sy the team is pretty stressed about the game.

WARDED TO FERDIE & NIA

Have the teachers or any of the MACUSA agents told you guys anything about the ghosts that we didn't know already?

get a parasol and get some lil baby freshie to row you around

[princeprincess]

Oho, you should. It's a bit taxing, but nothing too bad. Sign up before the freeze so if you go overboard while you're still learning, it won't be as shocking.

[peanutbuttercup]

That's a good idea. It'll spare my complexion.

[peanutbuttercup]

Do people go overboard a lot?

[princeprincess]

I wouldn't say a lot, but it happens. Regardless, there are exercises where we intentionally go overboard so that we know how to handle it.

[peanutbuttercup]

Well, at least I know how to swim.

[riledup]

don't worry boo stick with me i'll keep you pretty

[peanutbuttercup]

I appreciate the supposition that I'm already pretty.

Don't worry, if you drown Dinah will save you!!

[peanutbuttercup]

Yeah, I heard about the heroics.

[riledup]

girl you know they don't let you on the damn bus unless you're like a 7 on a bad day

[byebyebirdies]

She's the HERO WE NEED! Can you swim???

[peanutbuttercup]

I'm glad we're not grading on a curve then.

[princeprincess]

See? You're already halfway there. We can put you right in a boat with that attitude.

[peanutbuttercup]

I'm a pretty solid swimmer.

I don't have anything relevant from the faculty, but I do have a list of the names of the ghosts.

Martha, Charles, Peter, Henry, Margaret, Pearl, Danny, Elizabeth, Florence, Molly and a nameless man.

There's power in names, so, maybe it'll help us. With all but the man, which is unfortunate, because mentioning him caused a bit of a stir on the anonymous post.

[peanutbuttercup]

Wait, is there some kind of non-boat beginner activity I can participate in instead? Tell me more about that.

[byebyebirdies]

You don't want to be TOO solid or you'll DROWN!

[peanutbuttercup]

Ha. That's true.

[princeprincess]

Swimming lessons and dock safety policies. Boring. Let me take you out in a canoe, partner.

[byebyebirdies]

Do you think you'd come back as a ghost??

Head Kids + Reece

[peanutbuttercup]

Yeah, I saw that. [...] Martha's the one that stole Archie and Hero's potion, Florence is the girl in the lake. Pearl is the little girl with the dislocated shoulder who makes maps. Henry is the one without a head. Molly's the one that wants to marry Todd Skynner, and they saw her in the event committee basement. The ghost in the auditorium is a girl, so that's probably Margaret or Elizabeth.

That's all I know so far.

[peanutbuttercup]

Uh, I guess I don't know. Ghosts don't really seem to work like normal around here.

[peanutbuttercup]

Alright, but when I collapse from exhaustion and you have to tow me back to shore, don't say I didn't warn you.

[princeprincess]

I expect to be praised as a hero for having saved your life.
