A Random Conversation Between Two HP Fans, Their Friend And Their Teacher, circa 2005

aussiesheila47: I want to put some accidental magic in my fic.

wiccabookworm: Like turning Draco Malfoy into a ferret, you mean?

aussiesheila47: That was funny, but I don't want to copy too much. I'd like to turn him into something else.

Friend: What about a dodo?

wiccabookworm: Good idea. But don't we need to find the Latin translation?

(They are all in Latin class)

aussiesheila47: Consider it found. (puts up hand)

Teacher: Yes, aussiesheila47?

aussiesheila47: What's the Latin word for 'dodo'?

Teacher: I don't know. Make it up.

wiccabookworm: Dodus!

aussiesheila47and Friend: (crack up)

A.N: This actually happened to me and wiccabookworm back in Grade Eight. Obviously, our teacher at the time didn't call me by my penname. (I swear, he is the Potter Puppet Pals Snape of my school, minus the ominous voice and creepy background music. 'I am Creese, the Latin master …') The story is actually quite random, now I think about it … maybe it's a 'You had to be there' thing. Maybe it's the way wiccabookworm said it ... ah well. I thought I'd share it with you all the same. Reviews are always appreciated.
