Character: Jim Moriarty
Mun: Eri
Plot specific: N

Bending myself to technical matters, I have contrived a revolutionary spell which is based on high-frequency sound waves. Extremely effective in the short range in initial tests, it unfortunately consumes quite a high level of power. I envisage it will be of great use once better refined, being easily activated and capable of causing a great deal of damage, including the temporary deafening of guard dogs. Has demonstrated a curious side effect; spell seems to have the ability to melt any chocolates within 100 paces whilst leaving other objects - glass, cabinetry, structures of any sort - intact. Cannot forsee a use, but will nonetheless log in the report. May need to defer to someone more knowledgeable in the use of sound waves.

Suppose that's one way of doing things. I prefer working it all out in advance before jumping in to test. Then note, refine, test again. Rely on it working the first time off-paper in some cases. The theory is that you do not act on half-formed hypotheses, but on fully-formed and developed ideas.

I will not stop you from going the long way, if that is your prefrence, though. [Just don't be angry if he beats you to the punch, if you have a notion he likes.]

Then damn the ministry.

_{[Yeah, like hell you're actually going to get anything about his experiments from him. Even his roommate doesn't know what he's working on.]}

I always do, Jim.

[Was worth a shot - a shot which will continue to be taken at any offered oppurtunity, but not one that will be sought out; its not that important, after all.]

Good for you.
