Several of you have inquired about the kittens in my office: the orange one is Mizar, and the black one is Suha. House points to the first person who can tell me why those names (that didn't hear it from me already.)
They are both quite friendly, but mind your quills if you don’t want them used as toys. In related news, I am currently practiced with ink removal charms, and glad to share the ones I’ve found most effective. Also several that help with more controlled kitten amusement and entertainment.
As usual before exams, I’ve extended my office hours. However, I need to make some firecalls this week in the afternoons. Please knock first if the door’s mostly closed, and it may be a few minutes (not many) before I’m free.
My newts: I’m saving Thursday and Friday for any last questions (your last round of practice theory exams are marked and you can pick them up whenever.) If you don’t come up with anything else, I have more locational magic problems for you, as that seems to be the thing you’re all most worried about.
5th years: for those of you who might be considering the Astronomy NEWT, I’m changing my requirements for continuing in the subject (in favour of more opportunity, rather than less.) We’ll talk more once you’re done with the OWL exams, as the NEWT in Astronomy takes a sharp turn from observation into theory, and it’s rather a different kind of study.

Private message to Harry Marvolo
Date: 2013-05-08 01:44 am (UTC)Just wanted to let you know that I did get a chance to visit and talk a little with Cedric this afternoon. He says he’ll be writing you soon as he can manage. I brought a couple of dictation quills with me, but he needs to sort out which one works best for him.
He did suggest I might want to talk to you about something. Come up when you get a chance? (I restocked the excellent pastries today, too, if you need an additional lure.) We might want a little privacy, so tomorrow afternoon may be better than evening, but I’ll make whatever work.
