Character: The Psiioniic (Artollo Apemis)
Canon: Homestuck
Mun: James/Tri
Plot Specific: N

Alright, you little mixed group of magical disaster, just a heads up for the next class. Since variety is the spice of life, you get to choose just how to pass my next class from one of two ways. Generous, no?

Behind door number one, you get to write up an essay on using an unconventional area of magical study or spells in a fight. If you really need an example, here's one: using Care of Magical Creatures to raise up an army of Kneazles to conquer all of the British Isles. I'm sure Professor Vantas-Leijon could give you pointers on that particular, eheheheheh.

Behind door number two is something for the more physical of students, those who like doing a bit more spellwork than penwork. Last class we all went over the importance of the Shield Charm. Well, it's going to be the star again, as you must be able to cast a decent shield by the next time we meet. I will be testing the strength of it personally.

Now now, you don't have to worry. I won't throw you across the room with the force of whatever spell I use while I'm testing your shield.

I'm aiming to get someone in the lake. Nice weather for a swim.

Like usual, I'm available for any questions you might have about either assignment.

Nope, plotting forever. I'm pretty sure I still hear him meowing when I start to fall asleep...

I know, I'm a saint to sea life everywhere. Why don't I have a church or temple dedicated to me already? That's what I want to know.

[nosigntospeakof]

I'm amazed you even know where your bed is under all that rubbish.

Perhaps the sea dwelling animals have already and we just don't know it. Perhaps they've adopted you as their patron saint for all your good deeds.

[polariity]

It's not rubbish! Besides, who says I use the bed?

Maybe I should take a dive down there, see it for myself. Aaah, being worshipped by sealife... That wouldn't be too bad you know.

[nosigntospeakof]

Please don't tell me you just sleep o a pile. Please.

No, it sounds like quite the life. Until you drowned and Di and I would be severely lacking in the best fried department.

[polariity]

...Sometimes I sleep on a pile. Sometimes I just cast a hovering charm on myself. Depends on my mood.

Please, I'm too amazing to drown.

[nosigntospeakof]

Art!

[polariity]

What?!

[Private]

[nosigntospeakof]

That's it, next time you're home you're sleeping in our room.

[Private]

[polariity]

What, no! Sal, I'm sleeping fine!

[Private]

[nosigntospeakof]

You're sleeping on a pile of junk. I'm sure you'll sleep even better in an actual bed.

[Private]

[nosigntospeakof]

You can even sleep in the middle.

[Private]

[polariity]

...The middle.

[Private]

[nosigntospeakof]

The middle.

[Private]

[polariity]

...I'll think about it. Maybe.

[Private]

[nosigntospeakof]

So yes.

[Private]

[polariity]

I said maybe!

[Private]

[nosigntospeakof]

Maybe yes?

[Private]

[polariity]

Maybe I should give you another lesson in dueling, hell knows you need it.

[Private]

[nosigntospeakof]

Art, I'm a history teacher. Not a duelist.

[Private]

[polariity]

Irrelevant.

[Private]

[nosigntospeakof]

When would a history teacher ever have to get into a duel?

I mean when it's not with his completely mad best friend.

[Private]

[polariity]

There are plenty of reasons, Sal. The history of the world isn't pretty or decides to give you any forewarning.

[Private]

[nosigntospeakof]

I'm well aware, Art. I'm well-versed in that.

But I prefer methods of solving conflict that don't involve slinging spells around.

[Private]

[polariity]

And when diplomacy doesn't work, or can't be used in time?

[Private]

[nosigntospeakof]

I know enough defensive spells.

[He kind of sucks at most of them.]
