Concerning the current event at paradisa...

[aphoenixsong]

You have placed me in the midst of monsters. [Most people would be worried about this!] I should fare well - even if I am denied my voice.

Do you have much experience with monsters, Professor?

[aphoenixsong]

Far more than I like to recall, Tom.

[flightofdeath]

Then you should fare well, indeed.

[aphoenixsong]

I should like to hope so. The best teacher is experience.

[flightofdeath]

Good luck to you, all the same.

[Even if he doesn't mean it.]

[aphoenixsong]

How kind of you. Thank you for the well wishes.

[Ew, gross. He takes it back. He hopes the monsters rip his old professor to pieces. Sooner rather than later. Maybe he could help them. He'd love to.

The bile that rises from his stomach to his throat doesn't quite make it out, though, because he's too busy biting his tongue from saying anything at all, lest it betray his true feelings. Merlin, he hates this man.]

[his_nemesis]

What kind of monsters, Professor? [Because Harry is always curious.]
