'Thoughts and spells'

"So, why don't I show you two where you'll be staying as well as teaching." Dumbledore suggested and lead the way down the spiral staircase to show Ed and Chris around the school. "I understand that your classes will be taken at the same time, so you'll be teaching in the same classroom over here." Dumbledore started as they entered a large room lined desks and large windows overlooking the forest and grounds. "I have also heard that you will be giving the students the necessary items required for your classes, please try to go easy on the students for the first few days. Your living quarters will be close to the Griffindor dormitories as well, hidden with a portrait and password of your choice should you wish to change them." Dumbledore finished as they stopped in the hallway, turning to either side to see two large portraits fifty yards away on different ends of the hall.

Taking a look at the portraits Ed and Chris replied with simple nods to show they were listening and said they would change the portraits, then they walked into their respective rooms to put away their luggage before going to the library they had passed in the way. "We now know every spell, charm, and hex in most of these books by going to Diagon Alley and exhausting the Black library. We already know that the martial arts will torture them, let's see what the school knows about alchemy." Chris said as she and Ed pulled out a few books on alchemy and read through them, noting that all of them were wrong and spoke of only illegal and forbidden alchemy.

"This is stupid! These books only talk about illegal alchemy, and even that information isn't right. There full of shit!" Ed exclaimed as he continued reading the books in Chris's room, where he could yell and insult the book instead of in the library with a spell casting librarian. "These wizards no nothing, I bet they don't even know martial arts or enough defense tactics to use when the don't have a wand! What do you think they'll do if I play music before class?" Chris asked with an innocent smile "Confused. What if we made them learn how to play instruments without magic?" Ed replied with another question "Torture or interest." Chris chuckled in reply before glancing at the portrait hole entrance to her computer that was lying next to her, an idea coming to her.

Ed looked up as he heard the distinct sound of keyboard tapping and saw that Chris was on her laptop looking for something. Putting his book onto the desk he moved to look over his friend's shoulder to see that she was looking at pictures and focused on three specific pictures. One held what looked to be a family of four, another showed a group of friends in front of a school building, while the third picture showed a lone figure standing in a forest of cherry blossom trees under a very detailed star filled sky with a crescent moon. "Trying to figure out your portrait already?" Ed asked curiously "Yeah, but I don't have much of a choice in the matter of what picture I use. According to the school's library and the book store in Diagon Alley, my mother's been here before when she was seventeen and only stayed five years, meaning five weeks there, but she never used magic as far as know. The wizards are bound to have seen this picture of us so I can't use it." "And you can't use your friends because you don't know the outcome in which their animated selves will react." Ed added, already knowing what his portrait would look like, but kept it a surprise. Chris nodded in agreement and closed her laptop, picking up another book to find the animation spell. Ed picked up his books and walked to the portrait door to go to his own room, leaving Chris to her reading.
