Mun: Kabby
Plot specific: N

It's bad enough having to go to school with FILTHY MUGGLES! I refuse to share the common room with RAVENCLAWS.

Actually, they're not as bad as the muggles. BUT I REFUSE.

F9rgive me f9r p9inting 9ut the 9bvi9us, 6ut students 9f n9n-magical heritage are n9netheless still p9ssessing 9f magic themselves. Hence why they find themselves studying at this prestigi9us academy. There is n9 r99m f9r antiquated ideals 9f 6yg9ne eras here, and frankly y9ur 9ffensive remarks are n9t 9nly c9unterpr9ductive t9 a c9hesive student 69dy, 6ut also quite reminiscent 9f the int9lerance dem9nstrated 6y n9n-magical pers9ns themselves in vari9us times 9ver hist9ry.

Which is n9t t9 say that either side's 6ehavi9r is in any way excused, 6ut rather is merely a n9te that y9u are n9t s9 different fr9m n9n-magical pers9ns as y9u w9uld 6elieve y9urself t9 6e. Perhaps y9u w9uld 6e d9ing every9ne a fav9r if y9u checked y9ur bl99d privilege and reminded y9urself that y9u t99 are a mem6er 9f the human race.

WRITE MORE CLEARLY!

Also no.

Does this help? I wouldn't want my original point to become lost in the admittedly terrible quagmire of my handwriting, and it's hard enough to hold a quill in my transcorporeal state, let alone alter my handwriting in a major way.

[He clears his throat.]

Before I begin, I'm obligated to warn you that I'm going to talk about a myriad of sensitive and potentially triggering topics, including but not limited to blood purity, non-magicalborn discrimination, magical privilege and why it should be checked, primogeniture, classism, and mistreatment of non-magical persons by the differently-abled minority. If you are triggered by any of these subjects, feel free to tell me so now and I will attempt to tread lightly around them and do my best to treat them as carefully and respectfully as I can.

[remembertheroses]

What is wrong with Muggles and Ravenclaws?

[skincondition]

FILTH. They are inferior. Especially muggles.

[remembertheroses]

Why? I have been told that Muggles and wizards are the same. I have also been told that the houses are different but no better than each other.

[skincondition]

Those are common lies.

[remembertheroses]

Then why are they inferor ior?

[skincondition]

Why can't you spell?

[remembertheroses]

I am sorry but English is not my first language.

[skincondition]

Alien scum.

[remembertheroses]

[Ib reaches for her dictionary to look for the meaning of the word. Within a few seconds, she's found it and writes her reply back.]

I am not an alien. I am a human being.

[skincondition]

A dumb one.

[remembertheroses]

That is not a nice word.

[skincondition]

True. Did you have a point?

[remembertheroses]

You have not told me why Muggles and Ravenclaws are inferior.

[She was careful not to misspell this time.]

[skincondition]

MUGGLES ARE NOT MEANT TO HAVE MAGIC!

And Ravenclaws are know-it-alls.

[remembertheroses]

Why not?

But other people from different houses can be smart too. Are they also know-it-alls? What if they are from Hufflepuff or Slytherin.

[skincondition]

BECAUSE THEY ARE THE MUGGLES! THEY ARE NOT THE WITCHES AND WIZARDS!

Sometimes they are. But Ravenclaws are particularly, stupidly know-it-all...y.

[remembertheroses]

Then why do they have magic then?

OK.

[skincondition]

BECAUSE IT'S STUPID.

[remembertheroses]

OK.

[Ib likes this person less and less. Without even a good reason why Muggles shouldn't have magic, he's not a very smart person either. Plus, he's rude.

Maybe it is time to back off while she can.]

Thank you for answering my questions. Have a good day. Good bye.

[skincondition]

SPELL BETTER NEXT TIME!

[remembertheroses]

I will be more careful.

[skincondition]

Good.

[just1c3w1tch]

Actually, muggles are incapable of seeing Hogwarts, let alone attending it. Perhaps the word you're looking for is muggleborns?

[She's being polite. For now.]

[Voice]

[skincondition]

Really, Terezi, you must realize the terms are interchangeable.

[Voice]

[just1c3w1tch]

Actually, they're not. Have you ever looked in a dictionary?

Or do those give you headaches. They do, don't they. How rude of me, ignoring your enmity with the English language.

[Voice]

[skincondition]

I HAVE ENMITY WITH MANY THINGS! DO NOT IGNORE IT!

But they ARE the same. Dictionaries are stupid.

[Voice]

[just1c3w1tch]

[She... bursts out laughing.]

Oh my god. Zim, if you're trying to insult muggleborns, at least use applicable words. There are ready-made slurs just sitting there, waiting for you to use them. They feel neglected and sad because you're ignoring them.

Just think, you could be just as big a douchebag without sounding like an idiot. ...Oh wait, I'm doing it again. Telling you to think when that's clearly something you have no experience with.

[skincondition]

[Don't laugh at his fearsome rage, TZ. :c]

[Voice]

[skincondition]

NO ONE TELLS ZIM WHAT TO DO! I DO NOT EVEN NEED TO TRY TO INSULT MUGGLES. THEY INSULT THEMSELVES JUST BY BEING!

[Voice]

[just1c3w1tch]

...So their existence is offensive to themselves? No, actually, most muggles don't mind being muggle. And I've yet to meet a muggleborn that minds existing. An insult is something that offends someone. I'm not offending me. You are. Though not for the reason you'll probably assume.

For example, your stupidity is not offensive to you (presumably), if only because you've grown accustomed to it. So therefore you are not an insult to yourself. You are, however, a very grave insult to your house, who do not wish to be seen as the house of fools. And your housemates know where you sleep.

[bev_rage]

scuse u but ravenclaws r the brest best house and since muggoogles arent allowed at hogwurts hogwarts i'm assumin u mean muggleborns
and if so fuck u cause my bffsy is mugleborn and hes awesome

[doctorkishitani]

Given the choice, we wouldn't be inconveniencing you.
But due to the circumstances, we don't have much of a choice.

In any case, I'll look forward to meeting you!

[its_cor_aline]

[Oh hell no.]

Hey Zim, I'm a Ravenclaw AND a Muggleborn and five galleons says I can mop the floor with you in any area you choose including academics or Quidditch.
...though I don't think I could beat you in being a pompous ass. You seem to have that in spades.

(ooc: omg I love this. I read all of his posts in his voice and it's amazing.)

[eighttimeshandy]

Shut up, Zim.
