IC: Perspective

Plot specific: N

Goodness, I'm not sure how I feel about this survival training! It sounds kind of scary.

I'm not sure I'd ever use it, really, either! I hope not, at least... 

I think I have other problems to deal with this year, anyway. Today I forgot where the restrooms closest to the astronomy tower were, and I was directed to the ladies' room again. Not to mention the fact that my robes are a bit baggy! I could have sworn they fit when I tried them on at Madam Malkin's...

I don't see what being mistaken for a girl has to do with it.

[voleatile]

it means you are weak and puny and need more muscles.

[effeminacy]

I hardly think that's fair. There are plenty of girls in this school who are strong and such.

[voleatile]

there are just as many who are weak and wibbly and cry when pushed to the ground. you are a man. you are supposed to be strong always.

[effeminacy]

I don't think that sounds very appealing. It's better to be gentle, don't you think?

[voleatile]

no.

[effeminacy]

Oh.

Well, I do.

[voleatile]

and that is why you are continually directed to the ladies washroom.

[effeminacy]

I think that has more to do with my hair.

[voleatile]

you could cut your hair and still look like a girl.

[effeminacy]

It's not even that long... I guess I just have a more feminine appearance?

[voleatile]

it is because you are skinny and have no muscles and are afraid of spending a few nights out in the woods, yes.

[effeminacy]

Well, I don't think I should have to go out in the woods if I don't want to.

[voleatile]

sure, you could argue that. but what if you end up in the woods some day for some reason or another, and there is no one around but you? you cannot predict the future, you can only prepare for it. with training, you will not be caught unaware. and there will be others with you, if your so delicate sweety-gentleness is in need of rescue.

[effeminacy]

Oh, well I guess I never thought of that. I always hoped I'd never have to use something like that!

[voleatile]

hoping does not prevent accidents.

[effeminacy]

Maybe I will try this out...

[voleatile]

good. it will be fun.

[effeminacy]

Well, I'm not sure about fun, but hopefully it will be helpful!

[voleatile]

it will be a walk in the woods, just like camping. simple-peasy, like i said.

[effeminacy]

I've never been camping, actually!

[voleatile]

that is not at all shocking. it is fun. there are campfires and hunting.

[effeminacy]

Don't think I'm the hunting type...

[voleatile]

how do you know if you have never done it?

[effeminacy]

What would we be hunting in these woods?

[voleatile]

theres centaurs, acromantulas, hippogrifs, thestrals, and supposedly a few unicorns. none of which are particularly good for eating, and it's illegal to kill unicorns, so there probably will not be much hunting anything bigger than squirels, birds, or rabbits.

which is considerably less exciting than hippogrifs.

[effeminacy]

Oh, my! I don't think I'd like hunting any of those things... Big or small!


Rabbits are kind of unsettling.
