The marauders spell book
Mr Moony would like to present the spell book of the marauders, full of all of the favourite spells of the marauders.
Mr Wormtail wonders why the book does not start with a spell.
Mr Moony recalls this to be called an author's note, which explains about the book in question.
Mr Prongs believes that the title is self-explanatory.
Mr Padfoot is shocked that Mr Prongs knows that word.
Mr Prongs is shocked that Mr Padfoot knows that word.
Word *is shocked that Messrs Padfoot and Prongs know it*
Mr Moony recalls that this is because of the 'word of the day' calendar that Mr Padfoot received from Mr Moony.
Mr Padfoot claims he already knew that word.
Mr Padfoot is lying.
Mr Prongs is proud to say that he knew this word by himself, and did not need a childish word of the day calendar.
Mr Prongs is also lying.
Messrs Padfoot and Prongs strenuously deny lying.
Lying *is strenuously denied*
Mr Moony denies that the word of the day calendar is childish. He believes it to be interesting and informative.
Mr Moony is wrong.
Mr Prongs is wrong.
Mr Padfoot did not learn that word from the word of the day calendar.
Mr Padfoot is using the argument to try and seem smarter.
Mr Moony noticed.
Mr Padfoot liked the word of the day calendar. Today it says 'imbecile'. Mr Padfoot believes it was referring to Mr Prongs.
Mr Padfoot is wrong.
Mr Wormtail thinks both Mr Padfoot and Mr Prongs are imbeciles.
Mr Wormtail is wrong, and also does not know the meaning of the word Imbecile.
Mr Wormtail says that this is because he did not get a word of the day calendar. Mr Wormtail would like to get on with the Imbeciles Self-Explanatory Spell book.
Mr Moony agrees.
Mr Prongs thinks Mr Moony is trying to avoid the subject of the word of the day calendar.
Mr Padfoot agrees.
Mr Moony does not care and is about to continue.
Petrificus Totalus- Petrificus Totalus is a full body bind spell that renders the victim completely immobile. The victims arms and legs shoot together, and he or she will generally fall down because of lack of balance. It however does not interfere with breathing or site. Known counter curses are Rennervate, Finite or Finite Incantatem.
Mr Padfoot recalls wishing to use this on a certain red haired Gryffindor girl at many points when she had been nagging them to study.
Mr Wormtail agrees.
Mr Moony believes also believes education is important.
Mr Padfoot acknowledges the opinion of Mr Moony, yet states that he would not curse Mr Moony. Mr Padfoot is afraid of the reprecussions.
Mr Prongs does not think reprecussions are very terrifying.
Mr Padfoot thinks this is untrue. The word 'reprecussions' is a plural of 'repercussion' And therefore suggests a gang of reprecussions, and therefore gangster reprecussions, which would indeed be terrifying.
Mr Prongs thinks Mr Padfoot is reading too much into this.
Mr Wormtail strongly objects. Mr Padfoot never reads.
Mr Padfoot does not think that is strictly true.
Mr Padfoot is incorrect. Getting Mr Moony to read aloud for him does not count.
Mr Padfoot would appreciate it if Mr Moony would refrain from using Mr Padfoots name to preface his own comments.
Mr Moony knows the words 'preface' and 'refrain' came from the word of the day calender.
Mr Moony is correct.
Mr Moony feels superior.
Mr Moony withdraws this statement on pain of death from Mr Padfoot and the reprecussions.
Mr Prongs thinks that would be an excellent name for a band - 'Mr Padfoot and The Reprecussions.
Messrs. Moony and Wormtail disagree, on the premise that they have heard Mr Padfoot singing in the shower and therefore have no desire to own his album.
Mr Padfoot thinks they do desire the album which shall be named 'Mr Padfoot and The Reprecussions: Songs from the Shower'
Mr Moony wonders why. Mr Padfoot will record his vocals in the shower.
Mr Wormtail hopes the band will not be there.
Mr Padfoot thinks Mr Wormtail is being ridiculous. The shower is not big enough for both Mr Padfoot AND The Reprecussions. They will record separately, consequences be damned.
Consequences *are damned*
Mr Moony really thinks they should carry on with the book rather than discussions Mr Padfoots shower activities.
Messrs Wormtail and Prongs agree. Strongly.
Mr Moony thinks they should move on to a stinging hex.
Mr Padfoot agrees, the stinging hex is his favourite spell.
Mr Wormtail would like to point out that the stinging hex is a hex, not a spell.
Mr Padfoot did not know this.
Mr Wormtail thinks that Mr Padfoot is indeed an imbecile. If it were a spell, Mr Wormtail believes it would be called a stinging spell.
Mr Padfoot claims that the stinging spell is a terrible name for a spell, which is why it wasn't called that.
Stinging Spell *is offended*
Mr Moony wasn't aware that Mr Padfoot knew anything about the origins of spells.
Mr Padfoot does not know anything about the origin of spells.
The Stinging Hex, also known as the Stinging Jinx, is a spell that inflicts stinging pain and, in extreme cases, swelling in the affected area. It takes the appearance of a burst of white light.
Mr Padfoot believes the Stinging Jinx is even worse than the Stinging Spell.
Stinging Jinx *is even more offended than the Stinging Spell*
Mr Prongs thinks all this is self-explanatory and therefore does not need to be included in the book anymore than Messrs Moony and Wormtail desire a copy of Mr Padfoot and The Reprecussions: Songs from the Shower.
Mr Padfoot would be grateful is Mr Prongs stopped using his word.
Mr Prongs thinks it is only Mr Padfoots word so long as it is self-explanatory day.
Mr Padfoot disagrees with Mr Prongs.
Mr Prongs disagrees with Mr Padfoot.
Mr Padfoot would like to call on Mr Moony because of his extensive word of the day knowledge.
Mr Moony denies said word of the day knowledge, but does recall Mr Padfoot said it first, although he does not own rights to the word.
Mr Padfoot thinks that is contradictory.
Mr Prongs thinks Mr Padfoot should stop over using his word of the days.
Mr Wormtail agrees.
Mr Padfoot thinks that if the Stinging hex can be a hex and a jinx, it must also be a spell.
Mr Moony would like to clear up this problem with definitions-
Hex-a curse.
Spell- a word or formula believed to have a magical power.
Jinx- an unlucky or malevolent force, person or thing.
Mr Padfoot thinks that Mr Moony got the word malevolent from a word of the day calendar.
Messrs Prongs and Wormtail agree.
Mr Moony is officially getting rid of all word of the day calendars. He also thinks he may be developing hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia.
Mr Padfoot thinks Mr Moony definitely got that from a word of the day calendar.
Mr Moony gives up. He will resume work on the spell book tomorrow.
Mr Padfoot has looked ahead and can confirm with certainty that the word for tomorrow is 'resume'.
Mr Prongs can confirm that the word for the day after that is 'certainty'
Authors note- for those who read the original story, this chapter is slightly different as I wrote it so long ago I felt it needed an update, especially as some of the common traits in later chapters were not present in this first one, and this is the first one people will see. Most of the later chapters will not be changed or only minor edits will be made.
