IC Prospective: Sybille Matteris (Marquise Spinneret Mindfang)

[arachnoble]

Character: Sybille Matteris (Marquise Spinneret Mindfang)
Mun: Amanda
Plot specific: Nope.


It has recently come to my attention that some of my students seem to believe that Charms is a class they do not need to devote attention to. That it is not as important as Transfiguration, or Potions, or Defence Against the Dark Arts, disregarding the fact that the majority of spells are classified as Charms, including many spells that are used in Defence Against the Dark Arts!

Because of the arrogance and idiocy of these students, who don't realize a strong foundation in charms leads to a strength in other classifications of magic, all students enrolled in Charms (which means every single one of you), has to write an eight page paper on what they deem to be the most impressive, important, and useful Charm. This paper is due tomorrow at the beginning of class.

Failure to complete this assignment will result in punishment and docked points. Hopefully no more of you will take this class lightly from here on out.

I don't care if you asked or not.

Really? It sure seems like it. Far be it from Miss Mindfang to ever accept her own shortcomings.

[arachnoble]

You should care, because I won't be able to tolerate you for much longer.

As if I even have as many shortcomings as you seem to believe I do.

[shellfishlovver]

And then you'll stop talkin' to me and callin' me idiotic names? Oh. What a pity.

You're right. I'm almost certain you have more.

[arachnoble]

I don't think your poor heart could handle another woman ignoring you.

Well, maybe it could. I don't think you've ever had a substantial relationship in your life! How did you ever have two children? I can't think of any woman who would be able to stand you long enough for you to impregnate them.

Or why she'd even want to carry your spawn.

[shellfishlovver]

I was married. Until my wife died. Your sympathies are most appreciated.

I don't recall tellin' you any of this, Sybille.

[arachnoble]

As if marriages are anything more than a piece of paper and empty promises.

I have my ways of gathering information.

[shellfishlovver]

Maybe so. Though that hardly excuses the fond feelings.

Nice to know you still care.

[arachnoble]

I'm sure your dead wife was fond of you being gone all the time.

It has nothing to do with caring about you! I keep tabs on all of my co-workers.

[shellfishlovver]

I'm sure you know nothin about my wife or our marriage.

Of course it doesn't.

[arachnoble]

I know what being an auror was like.

What, do you think I've been harboring all of this love for you after we split ways?

[shellfishlovver]

Don't be ridiculous. We hated each other as tykes an' I highly doubt that would change even after ten or so years.
