it’s really difficult when you don’t see a cute kid for a few years, then you turn around and somehow they grew up and got hot (and also twice the size of you). HADDOCK, WHY DIDN’T YOU STOP THIS. WHY DID YOU LET THIS HAPPEN. WHY WAS NOBODY WARNED. }

I honestly can’t thank you all enough for joining me through the adventure of this blog!! I know I’m gonna sound really cheesy since this is just a blog and it’s only 200 followers, but this blog has honestly made me feel a lot better about my characterization, writing, and has truthfully just made me a little happier in life. I know the past week has been shit for me, but I still come on here to try to do one silly thing a day because that truthfully helps. You all allow me to do that, and I’m always ecstatic to see how into this blog you guys are with your paparazzi anons and starters left and right. I just love it, and I love you all. 

All right, all right. That’s enough rambling from me. I’ll get to the names now. Don’t be offended if you’re not on the list, by the way!! I’m just a mess and I truthfully can’t remember everyone I care about. Not only that, but these are people I feel close to and/or really admire. They’re really in no particular order.

Lily CRASHES in, three signs in hand as she dishes them out to the crew. For Haddock, a warning label that simple reads, "LOUD AND DRUNK". For Ellie, her sign reads, "WARNING: TOO AWESOME, WILL PROBABLY KICK YOUR ASS AT ANYTHING." And for Carlos, it spells out, "WARNING: YOU'LL PROBABLY FALL IN LOVE."

Avatar

Haddock frowns very loudly at his sign and glares at it for a solid ten minutes afterwards.

Elien grins, and gives the girl a high five and a "Damn straight."

Carlos runs a hand through his hair and flexes before giving his Princesa a smooch on the cheek.

"Oh, I— Of course, Professor."

The student in question neatly dog-eared the page of his Charms textbook and shut it as all eyes in the class turned to him. He pushed up his sleeves a little further - with a sheepish smile to his friends nearby, just to disillusion anyone who might think he was pleased to have landed the role of teacher’s pet - and cleared his throat.

"Tarantallegra!"

With a flick of his wand and a spark the textbook quivered, flipping on its side and proceeding to sprout four sturdy legs. Tintin lunged forward immediately to grab it before it could jump off the desk and escape down the hall - Chang in the third row had already lost track of his and was lamenting having to redo all his notes from the term unless he could find it after the class, and Abdullah at the back had set his free on purpose to try to trip up Professor Haddock. 

"It’s in the wrist, I think," Tintin elucidated helpfully, pinning the squirming book as best he could. "It seems to work better if only one spark comes from the wand; it has to be flicked gently enough. The pronunciation, too - it’s derived from Latin, using the wrong accent makes it defunct.”

He glanced up to the Professor to see whether he would be invited to continue. Check. Everyone liked Tintin, he was patient and sweet - when things got difficult in the class, sometimes he could explain a little better than a grouchy professor who looked more suited for Defence Against the Dark Arts than Charms

"It’s the same word for the Dancing Feet spell, so— Zorrino, could you hold this? Thank you —it has to be performed precisely or you’ll be casting the wrong one; and a spell for dancing is useless on something without legs. The wrist movement is very specific; I think I was just lucky to hit on the right technique so soon.”

The Captain-turned-Professor crossed his arms behind his back, brows furrowed as he watched his star-pupil show the other students how it was done. Hopefully an example from a fellow peer would get through to them where he, apparently, could not.

And damn that Abdullah.

"There, see?" He huffed, and waved an arm at Tintin while the boy struggled to hold his perfectly-charmed book still and steady. "Technique is everything when it comes to spellwork. A misplaced twitch or a mispronounced word could get you a book with teeth, rather than legs. As we've already seen," he grumbled, and his blue eyes narrowed at a young girl who hunkered behind her belted, toothy book sheepishly.

The book growled at him.

"Now, following his example--and very good advice, I want all of you to try again."

He ignored the wave of groans and terrified murmurs of anticipation, but Tintin made it look so easy that most of them gave it another shot with a great deal more confidence than they had before. And most of them, to the Captain's delight, were successful this time around, and he grinned and laughed as suddenly nearly every student had a book to chase after and hold still.

"Ha! Excellent, Tintin. Ten points to Slytherin."
