Uh... sure, Winters. What d'you need? ...is going to get me in trouble?

[the-instigators.livejournal.com]

Well, that all depends on how good at snooping around you are. Or aren't, I suppose, if you're uncertain of yourself like this.

I need help getting to Jamesies's journal.

[as-required.livejournal.com]

I'm not uncertain of myself. I just have a tendency to be suspicious when you or Potter asks me to do something. It's been unpleasant in the past, you know?

I could probably find where he stashes it. Why?

[the-instigators.livejournal.com]

THAT WASN'T MY FAULT! It was all James's fault. I swear it, even!

I want to put a certain charm on it. Will you help me get to it?

[as-required.livejournal.com]

Knowing Potter, I'm almost willing to believe you. Still... I've got a few doubts.

Anyway, I guess I can. If it's a good time for you, I can bring it down Monday. That'll give me today and tomorrow to work out where he's keeping it this week.

[the-instigators.livejournal.com]

I can accept that. "Guilty by association" seems to be the new thing these days.

Fantastic. You're brilliant, Cale! ♥

[as-required.livejournal.com]

Let's just hope I don't become guilty associating with you.

Yeah, yeah. We'll see if I can find it. Potter's always hiding it in odd places. And mine, too. Dunno why he thinks hiding mine is a fun game.

Oh... yeah. Happy belated birthday, by the way. Don't think I ever said.

[the-instigators.livejournal.com]

No worries! I don't ever reveal my sources. I'll try my best to keep dear Jamesies's suspicion from you.

He just does it to do it, I swear. Once he hid my potions text from me for a week!

Aaww, thank you, sparrow! ♥♥

[as-required.livejournal.com]

Appreciate it, Winters. I'd rather not find all my texts missing with exams starting Monday.

And... um... I suppose you're welcome.

[the-instigators.livejournal.com]

Ah, true enough. If any of them do go missing, let me know! I'll loan you mine and then pester James until he gives them back!

[as-required.livejournal.com]

I'll accept that offer if you don't mind, thanks. I might pitch in to pester him, though.

Can't believe we've all got only one more week of being fourth-years. Think O.W.L.s will slow you and Potter down at all?

[the-instigators.livejournal.com]

Fun! I bet between the two've us we could make him go right batty, don't you think?

DON'T DO THAT TO ME, CALE! For a moment you made me panic and have to demand off the nearest person when our O.W.L.s were! I didn't think I'd manage to forget something so important! But with all that's been going on lately, you never know... Doesn't it seem like we were just standing in line waiting to be Sorted that first night?

But to answer your questions, I don't plan on letting it slow me down! Never been one to worry too much about grades, honestly--if I haven't learned it yet it's slim to none'll I'll be able to magically understand before the exam, eh?

...

Maybe a bit of extra studying. Blast.

[as-required.livejournal.com]

Oh, sorry. Didn't mean to startle you like that. Er... sorry.

But yeah, it doesn't seem like we've been here that long, does it? We're over halfway through our schooling here. Oh, Merlin. Now you've got me worried.

I'm off to study for this year's exams, though. I... uh... haven't studied much yet. At all.

[the-instigators.livejournal.com]

Ah, no worries--no harm, no foul! It was only a couple minutes.

I hadn't thought of it that way yet! Drat, now I'm wondering...

Good luck with your studying, then~ Hope your exams go all right!

[as-required.livejournal.com]

Good luck to you as well! See you on Monday.
