Question Things overheard at Whateley (with or without context)

"Only one, but it's timeline crosses the workshop 4 times."

Well, you don't see that every day...


Yes we do

"Yeah, that's exactly what I said when I woke up like this, too, though I said 'rack' rather than 'boobs'. At least you didn't have to argue with yourself right after."

It went that way.
Then let's go a different way and hope it isn't hiding to ambush us...

Don't call me Velma.

Sorry Shaggy, your new body keeps throwing me

No, I'm Scooby. That's Shaggy.

ooc: and now I want to watch that God Awful mockery of a beloved cartoon.

Whos been talking? Who is this Fractious, and how does she know so much about DeVille Academies workings? And why is she including it in Harry Potter fan fiction?

Every one wants to be Lara Croft; Tomb Raider. She's a knock off. I'd rather be the original relic hunter Sydney Fox.

"Actually, the first Tomb Raider game predates the Relic Hunter TV series by three years..."

"Nobody asked you, Pedantik!"

"I can't help it; correcting misconceptions is part of my power set."

There is actually a character in this book with that very power.

'And they are just female copies of Indy any way'

"So you can manifest pastries, but you can put fillings in them like apple and stuff, right? So... would that include brownies? You know, the 'special' kind?"

(I don't think Donut would take that suggestion very kindly, for some reason. Assuming he even got what they were suggesting - he had a rather sheltered upbringing, after all. Mind you, I have an OC in a micro scene, codename Stone Soup, who got into trouble for manifesting just such sort of 'food'.)

"Do I want to know why Bloodwolf has a restraining order against St. George's newest altar boy?"



"No. You really, really do not."

"What, it isn't the other way around?"

"Pookie's a good, good doggy, aren't you? Yes, you are! If he's too stringy, chew a few times first."

I thought you weren't supposed to give him between meal treats?

Oh, Hell NO. With all due respect, sensei, I know when I'm beings set up. I have seen enough movies where the harmless, or defenseless, or overly cute thing kicks the ass of the unsuspecting shmuck He looks both harmless, and defenseless. And some could call him cute, in that way old people hand babies have. I don't buy that for a second. I'm not your shmuck today, find someone else.

She falls into the overly cute category, so nope. My charge might be up to lasting a half minute with you sensei, now. Oh don't give me that look, you knew I was stalling to do just that.

"So, you said there's a particular martial arts discipline you are interested in?"
"Yes, soke, but I don't know if there's a qualified instructor in campus."
"And what is that discipline?"
"Waif-fu."

"So, this is a frying pan. Frying is only one of its functions. It is also a shield. It's heavy, so rotate it around the center of mass to reduce the effort, like so. Thirdly, it is a weapon. A blunt weapon, but also a burning weapon. Because as I said initially, frying is one of its functions...."

Excuse me chief Everhart. Can I request for the Dickinson kitchen be warded like the ultra secure workshop rooms? I'm tired of my cookie dough being snitched off the tray while my back is turned. I get maybe an eighth of the cookies baked on a good day.

Have you ever gotten between an energizer and their ramen? It wasn't pretty. Trust me.

Even if the opposition doesn't fall for the trap, the whole 'Do I push the bright jolly red button or not' dilemma will distract them long enough to kick their ass

I could see a whole training team sketching out an elaborate plan all based around their winning when the red button was pushed.

Best to dig yourself a hole and pull it in after yourself if you think being an Exemplar 6 is defense against a devisor. Besides that particular set of words? Like taunting fate or the Tao!
