So, um, purely hypothetically, you understand... what does one if one's friend is exhibiting adverse effects after tasting an unknown substance? Just theoretically, you know. Oh, damn I thought I'd put all the knives in the drawer- Niv![PRIVATE, Professor Teppic ( Read more... )

Oh, dear, I've left this for quite some time, haven't I? Since... before Hogswatch, in fact. My word.

Speaking of Hogswatch, I had a rather nice one. Although a I came back to exams a little after. To be fair, they could have been worse. But in any case, it's just class as usual at the moment.

Oh, and my leg is better. Which is absolutely ( Read more... )

Father dropped by rather unexpectedly to see me yesterday, but then again, I should be used to the idea that he's a little weird at times by now. Anyway, he gave me a long and, I think, belated talk on Acting Responsibly and being careful Not To Be Too Reckless, etc. Still good advice, of course. Although he was also nice enough to leave me with a ( Read more... )

I am still missing all the practical classes, which is slightly annoying. Although, as has been pointed out, it carries a few benefits. I get to point and laugh at Nivin, for example, if the occasion presents itself. And I can get some work from other classes done. So I have more free time. Which means I'm more likely to be bored. But I cannot do ( Read more... )

So. Um. That went ... differently than expected. By "that," I mean sneaking out with Nivin to find one of the former Assassins Professor Teppic sent out of the Guild in no uncertain terms. Yes. Differently than expected.

Well, we did find him. So. That's good.

... Oh, who cares about the bright side, my leg is broken. Stupidstupidstupidstupid.Um ( Read more... )

I had a quick visit from Mr. DiCorcoran today, when he delivered my painting. I must thank you again, Mr. Metatronim. It looks even better when one sees it in person ( Read more... )

Well, I do feel mortified slightly awkward right now. At lunch today, Niv and I were joking around some. And in the middle of a spontaneous single person skit of mine, I ended up going, "Duhr, and this is why I'm stupid," in the most moronic voice I could muster. Which in itself would not have been too much of a problem, except that I said it ( Read more... )

I don't generally have objections to work, nor to staying up nights. It's rather required if one is studying to be an Assassin, what with the whole 'moving stealthily under cover of darkness' aspect of things. And work, well, one gets nowhere without it ( Read more... )

Those to whom I mentioned my holiday boredom to were quite right- now that classes have started I am quite busy. Which is why I've been neglecting this. Although, I still maintain that busy though I am, at least it's stimulating business ( Read more... )

So, classes at the Guild started again a few days ago. I've been told it's a little odd by several people, but I find I'm rather happy about this. Things are somewhat more ... eventful, perhaps? Well, Niv insists that I tend to find ways to make them eventful anyway, but the point is that I don't need to do all the coming up with things now.Dragged ( Read more... )
