Upon hearing my offer, the professor’s face lost all emotion, settling in an impassive blank mask.
“And what would be my duties?” He asked in a bland tone.

It took a while for my laughter to stop and, when it did, I was faced with an apoplectic professor and a highly amused Luna.
“Sorry, sorry!” I started, lifting my hands in a placating manner. “It’s just that, Luna has been teaching me potions for the last week, and in every single lesson she insists on acting just like you.”
“And ...

The number of people also brought forth a lot of weirdness, mostly from the children playing with magical toys, but also from the dress style of some of the people there.

Consciousness came slowly to me.
I was lying down somewhere soft, a weirdly firm pillow beneath my head, and a hand caressing my head.
"Hmmm, cafuné." I mumble as I turn to snuggle deeper into it.

"OOWW" I scream, rolling ...

It is a beautiful city, with the morning sun shining upon it it’s hard not to feel at peace walking through its streets, although the tourists try really hard to ruin the atmosphere.
Not that I can complain too much, considering I’m a tourist myself, but at least I have the mind to keep photographs and rubbernecking to a minimum.
Or maybe I’m not doing it t...
