How to play
① Tag in
② Go to RNG and roll 1-10. That's your scenario!
③ Tag around!
④ Have fun. :)
Scenarios
① Transfiguration. Pay attention and maybe your teacup will turn into a whole rat instead of just a furry piece of nonsense! Ask someone for help.
② Potions. Watch out for Snape. How's that nastily complicated brew coming along, by the way? Looks like one of you screwed it up!
③ Charms. A relatively easy class ... when your friend isn't bugging you. The trouble is that you're both having too much fun together to concentrate.
④ History of Magic. ... IT'S JUST SO MUCH FUN. Spice up the lesson with your buddy's help!
⑤ Par-tay in the Common Room. Who the heck knows why it's going on, but you're not missing out on this for anything and neither is your friend! Who cares if they're not from the same House, right?
⑥ Quidditch. Training or playing an official inter-house match? Showing off or just trying to stay airborne? Good luck and don't fall off your broom!
⑦ Detention. Shelling out manky old exoskeletons bare-handed? Re-alphabetizing an entire section of the library all night long? Maybe you're unfortunate enough to have been grouped together in the Forbidden Forest.
⑧ The Astronomy Tower. Whether a late night class or a romantic evening together, the stars are beautiful.
⑨ Hogsmeade. You have a whole day here with your friends! Where will you go and what are you up to?
⑩ The Great Hall. Breakfast? Lunch? Dinner? A feast sure sounds nice, be it for Halloween or Christmas. Celebrate together!

idk???
Would you be willing to come and cover a mini course on curse-breaking as part of career orientation this year? I think the younger students especially should stand to gain from having an expert deliver a chat, and I can imagine those of us who unfortunately remember Umbridge's contributions to this whole charade three years ago would rather hear from someone who doing the job than a leaflet.
I'm sure Headmistress McGonnagall can offer some sort of compensation, and also for what it's worth, I'd be eternally grateful.
Kindest regards,
Hermione

I'm in Italy right now dealing with a really nasty piano so I imagine that will be interesting for someone to hear about, not to mention better than anything Umbridge tried to pawn off as education. Here's hoping anyway, at least I know you'll like the story!
See you soon,
Bill
no subject
I hope you'll have given that piano a good talking to by the time this owl reaches you. I was so excited to read your acceptance of the invitation!
I may have also confirmed it with the Headmistress and attached a schedule for you; you'll have separate talks to fifth, sixth, and seventh year. And also us - some of the students are calling us eighth year but we're mostly taking all of the seventh year courses and some accelerated classes here and there that are one semester long. I actually touched on curse breaking in Ancient Runes last semester and it was fascinating, so this might be a bit of a vested interest.
Don't tell anyone ;)
Warmest wishes,
Hermione
no subject
You've got a vested interest in something after a class? This certainly has got to be a first.
Just kidding.
McGonagall's already written to say thanks, I think she's settling into her role at Hogwarts rather nicely. I don't think there's anyone who doesn't believe the school is in good hands.
Anyway enough fawning over Minnie yeah? Looking forward to seeing you Hermione, I'm glad you decided to go back and finish up school.
Best from me and the piano,
Bill
's just gonna be epistolary all the way
That is rich, coming from a former Head Boy. Please allow me my academic enthusiasm - it benefits the whole world! Or it will, as soon as I manage to graduate.
How is the piano? Also, should I prepare anything ahead of your visit? Should I tell any of my classmates to?
Best,
Hermione
pen pals with a crush au, clearly
I don't doubt it. Quite excited to see the size of the dent you make in the world once you're out if I'm honest.
No need to worry about preparing anything, I'm fairly self-sufficient. I've been writing with Minnie for the last few days and I'll be with you in about a week.
Before you ask, she's already said you're welcome to sit in on all the lectures I'll be giving, if your schedule allows.
Don't worry, I won't be out of my room after hours.
Bill
PS: I think that send-off might've sounded creepy.
what kind of RUDE FOOL forgets to reply to this - timeskip
Hello again! I hope you do not mind too much that I am sending you another owl, but I wanted to thank you for having come for those lectures! I asked Ron about whether it would be appropriate to send something, like chocolates or a bottle of butterbeer? In any case I think maybe the gestures of good will I can arrange to send from Hogwarts are limited and childish.
So my written guidance will hopefully be good enough, together with the fact that I've also informed Ron that you are my favourite Weasley and he has been pouting for a week now.
Would it be alright for me to write you again sometime? As NEWTS are approaching, I have to make a few choices on my career post-Hogwarts and I could use someone to talk to who doesn't just think of Quidditch and Aurors.
Best wishes,
Hermione
now i am become the rude fool
Never a bother, they've all had great personalities so far. You don't have to send me anything to say thanks, it was good to get back to Hogwarts, Minnie's thinking of having me back annually now, which I can't say I'm against. There's no shortage of work, and it's always good to see if there's anyone with a knack for it out there, know what I mean?
Not to mention it was good to see you as well, and with that said, of course, you can write, as I said you've got great taste in owls, and penpals as well it seems.
Let me know how I can help,
Bill
[ Additionally he's sent a parcel of various muggle sweets from Egypt, and a book on Curse Breaking that was obviously his, given all the notes and doodles in the margin. He drew a lot of pictures of animals and snacks as a student. ]

Dear Bill,
Hope you're doing well, wherever this owl finds you.
First of all, thank you for the treats. I have to say that I am enjoying how obviously you are trying to poach me onto the Curse Breaker side.
I should also have to say that I wrote to Gringotts yesterday and enrolled in their summer programme. It's an accelerated course, and vastly depends on how I do in my N.E.W.T.s this year, but I think that without a Dark Lord rising and Death Eaters threatening my parents' safety and lives, I'm finding school to be a lot more mellow.
I even managed to surprise the boys with contraband firewhiskey. It's just that I realised we are all eighteen now, and have made it to eighteen, and if there were ever three people who deserved to get pissed and make bad life choices for one night...
I can only say that I am glad the Owlery was so far up the stairs that I have spared you drunken Hermione ramblings.
Yours,
Hermione
owl - OMG TIMELINES IDK.
How are you, my friend?
So, I must warn you (simply because my track record is making messes of things) but I've made the decision to go into the curse-breaking profession.
After all of the experience I've had with the cursed vaults (and getting into plenty of trouble at school), I was advised that I should play to my strengths. At this time, I plan to seek a Mastery in Ancient Ruins and Arithmancy but sort of figured I should seek out someone who has been this route already.
So, do you have any suggestions or tips? I would love to meet you over coffee or drinks sometime. Charlie tells me that you've been keeping busy.
Talk to you soon,
Eldrine Abernathy

It's good to hear from you! I've been alright, working and listening to my Mum talk my ear off every chance she catches me. I'm over in Morocco for the moment but it'd be great if you could make it down for tea, otherwise, I'll be back next for the holidays I think.
You should come to Morocco! I'll loan you some books, maybe take you on the job if you like.
Hope to see you soon,
Bill
[ Oh no Bill's got a crush. ]
no subject
So she hasn't changed much, has she? I was told she's been on the marriage train for you and Charlie. Considering how young both of you are, there's plenty of time for marriage in the future.
Morocco? Bill, that sounds wonderful and simply exciting! It's also a perfect place for someone with your skills.
I have some time free in a couple of weeks to visit. Will that be a good time for you? I've never been to Morocco.
See you soon,
Eldrine
[ He's not the only one! Eldrine most definitely has a crush. ]
no subject
That she is. We keep telling her we're not each other's type and not that sort of Pureblood. She doesn't appreciate the joke at all.
Some people.
A couple of weeks sounds great, if not slightly eternity-ish. I'll do my best not to waste away.
It'll be really nice to see you.
Bill
PS: Did you hate being called El? Should I not do that again? I'm open to feedback and constructive criticism.
[ Bill Weasley - such a wanker. ]
no subject
You made me scare my cat! I was laughing so hard just thinking of what your mother's face looked like when you told her that.
Really, some people. It's like she doesn't even know you!
Believe me, I feel the same way.
I'm less concerned about you wasting away since I fully expect your mum to send some sort of care package. Instead, I'm more concerned about missing out on some prime curse-breaking action. Okay, and slightly more concerned about you taking a nasty curse in the meantime.
So, don't do that!
It'll be great to see you again. It's been far too long.
El
PS: What do you think? [There's a little arrow to her signature. No, she certainly didn't mind one bit.]
[ Bill Weasley - the king of sass! ]
no subject
Charlie understood, but Mum took it quite hard. Tell your cat hi from me.
'Care package' is one way to put it, a curated assortment of treats care of Molly Weasley isn't anything to sneeze at, though I am full up on knitted jumpers. Would you have a need for a jumper with very long sleeves that has got a gold 'B' on the front of it? Let me know, I've got about twelve of them. Babernathy's got a ring to it.
Didn't mean to call you a babe, but it's not an untruthful remark.
Mortified but in one piece and still excited to see you,
Bill
no subject
That's because we all know that Charlie would rather stick to his dragons than settle down with anyone. I will let her know when she decides to grace me with her presence again.
Are you sure you want to part with one? Because you could change one out for each month of the year! But, to answer your question, I am always in need of another jumper (especially during the winter) and I can work with the B!
And good, because I'm not letting you take it back.
Now I need to find a place to stay. Do you have any recommendations?
Very much looking forward to seeing you very soon,
El
no subject
Don't tell my mother that idea, she'll use it on all my siblings and they'll likely hate me for it. You can have your pick of the lot Babernathy.
My flat? It's not an absolute pit and I'll be happy to stay on the couch for the sake of getting to have you around. Only if you're comfortable of course.
Already tidying,
Bill
no subject
Honestly, I'm surprised that she hasn't thought of it yet! Really, it's almost disappointing. I'm teasing, obviously because who really would need that many jumpers with your initial on it.
If you're sure you don't mind me being in your space then it sounds like a done deal to me. Mess or not, spending more time with you is certainly better than a hotel room.
Just another week,
El
PS: Is there anything I can bring from home that your mother hasn't already sent you?
