A/N: I know this is weird beyond all belief. Thanks for reviewing, anyway.
Chapter Six
Graphophobia- Fear of writing or handwriting.
I feel rather justified in my fear. At least I have a reason for it.
The teachers don't care if I type my homework, even if it is a bit unusual for a witch. It's easier for them to read. Typewriters function fine on Hogwarts grounds. Everybody wins.
Even Snape lets me tape his lectures and transcript them later. You would expect any excess use of Muggle equipment by a Gryffindor would be a ready-made excuse to dock 50 points. Yet even Snape refrains from comment.
I just can't stand to handwrite anything more than I absolutely must.
It reminds me too much of that diary.
I wrote to Tom Riddle for an entire year. I nearly died. I nearly sold my soul to You-Know-Who. Can anyone blame me for remembering that anytime I am forced to write by hand?
I imagine that's why they all allow me to handwrite as little as possible. If you'd been possessed by the Heir of Slythrien by means of handwriting, you'd avoid quills like plague, too.
