Ok, I really meant to update yesturday, but by the time I got home I was ready to PASS OUT and very nearly did. I'll do my very best to update tomorrow because I know I wont be able to the day after. Meh.

How's the paperwork coming along, Albus?
Don't you have a class, Minerva?
Not for another ten minutes.
Unlike some, I have work to do to keep this school from going under, so if you wouldn't mind leaving me alone…
Maybe you should close your notebook and put it away.
Minerva, I think I might have to hurt you.
Why is that?
Mr. Potter and Black decided to reenact their first class from last year. Unfortunately, the rest of the class thought that a mud fight looked like fun too. Now all my plants are absolutely covered! How am I supposed to save the really delicate ones?
You're the herbology expert, I failed. As for Potter and Black, I'll take care of them. Are we happy now?
Nowhere near.
Well, I can't change the past. But I am honestly sorry about the destruction of your plants, and will talk to Potter and Black. Would you like to take their detentions, or shall I?
You go ahead. I'd end up using Unforgivables!
Oh, lookie there! Potter and Black have just entered the room… and I can smell it. Were they throwing your fertilizer too?
Probably.
Nasty! Class dismissed for showers! Ugh!
You'd better keep Potter and Black back!
I will. Bye, for now.

Detention for a week? Ouch.
Possibly…
What 'possibly'? That's a definite ouch!
Ah, yes, but detentions last a long time.
You aren't making ANY sense, James.
Look, we've got the detentions with McGonagall, right?
Unfortunately…
And what information do we need from said Professor?
-gasp- She didn't give us another essay during class last week, did she? I fell asleep!
No, Peter. It's not academic.
Would you get off the case of that stupid notebook?
NEVER!!
JAMES, MY BRILLIANT BUDDY! Are you suggesting that she'll pull out her notebook and we can figure out how to open it from watching her do so?
That's exactly what I'm thinking.
Where's Remus going?
TO GET THE BOOK BEFORE WE DO! SIEZE HIM!
No, we lose. Remember what he is? As soon as he's out of sight of people, he'll bolt. We'll just get it when he sleeps.
Right. Or… we could wait until… you know…
No, chances are he'd somehow find out and come get us without changing.
You know how weird that sounds?
Oh, grow up, Peter!
Well, you always tell Remus NOT to grow up!
That's because Remus has the mentality of a 30 year old.
Oh… What mentality do I have?
Hmmm… I dunno. What do you think, Sirius?
I'd say… 8 or 9.
Aw, come on!
That's a compliment, Peter.
Yeah, Sirius and I only have a mentality of about 10 or 11.
But that only makes you a year or three behind everyone else in our year!
A year or two, Peter, not three.
No… it's three!
Ok, Petey, whatever you say.
IT'S FRIDAY! We're done with classes!
Hoorah! I love classes being done early. Let's go bug the squid.
Forward, march!
AH! Another short chapter! I'm sorry!
Good news, though! I'm officially off probation! So I'm back to making money now, but it'll still be a bit before I can afford to give out e-money. Sooo... and song suggestions for the Jukebox?
Reviews make me happy. Just click the button. For instructions on how to review, go look at my note a few chapters back, then come back to this one and follow said instructions. Please? Por favor? (I don't actually speak spanish, so if I messed up the spelling there let me know.) I asked in two languages! Ah, ah! Seeeeee??
