Estella
I was wondering if you were still considering Estella for the Wizengamot. I know trials will probably start soon, so I wanted to see if she would be in by then, if you were going to put her in.

Archives
As the owner (of a sort) of the Leaky Cauldron, I'm going to allow you to deal with the archives as you see fit. You may delete what you think shouldn't be kept, and archive that wich you think needs to be archived, and remove archives when you think it's prudent. Bond_em7 (Owl Me ) 13:25, October 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah, posting a quick blog about it can't hurt. Bond_em7 (Owl Me ) 13:33, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

Ciaran
Well, Ciaran would have loved the caves. Easy swimming, a place to get away from everyone else, have friends over etc. A perfect boys hideout while growing up. I just thought some remnants of him in hidden places of the house would be appropriate as he probably would have explored every part of the house, and be especially interested in those he shouldn't have been allowed inside.

On another note, would you be interested in him trying to talk to his dad soon? I'm still looking for someone to rp his wife (though if it comes down to it, I may just do it as she'll only probably be a minor character), but she can just stay in the background for now. Let me know, and I may have him head to the house soonish. Bond_em7 (Owl Me ) 15:51, October 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * It was my plan to not have Caecey know about the caves, and it be a 'private retreat' of Ciarans as it were, including even from his sister. I did see the histroy of the family, and the serpent society etc, and it was very interesting. For now I'll hold off on Ciaran, as it's not like I'll use him much, or anything will really change with him, so just let me know when you think a good time to bring him in would be. Also, I looked through the household again today (checking out all the new stuff) and noticed the lab isn't linked to anywhere. Is that on purpose or an oversight? Anyway, just thought I would ask. Bond_em7 (Owl Me ) 16:00, October 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Hmmm...I guess for now I will approve the serum....though I still want it to be rare/tightly controlled etc, so as to not overwhelm the animagi population, and I do still want it to be possible to becomae an animagus without it. Bond_em7 (Owl Me ) 16:09, October 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Alright, under those conditions, I'm good with the serum. Bond_em7 (Owl Me ) 16:19, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

Vetus
I do have a couple things I would like to address with you about Vetus. However, it would be much better in chat, so when I'm on (hopefully this evening or tomorrow evening) we can tag up and talk about it quickly. Bond_em7 (Owl Me ) 18:42, October 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * I very much like the idea of the wand being a relic, and someone (whether it's Barant of not) trying to win it. Can you add it to the relic's list? I was thinking for it's "Properties" that it has no alliegence to win, and that it gives it's wielder a leadership point for each encounter they use it. Thoughts? Bond_em7 (Owl Me ) 14:01, October 2, 2012 (UTC)

Bedazzling Hex
Let me know where you would like an RP to take place. I will forever be amazed that clan Rookou is anything beyond Arcturus and Tulula. I see that the Rook has expanded immensely and I plan to add Tulula's Wing links to the existing floors. Don't let any future RP wait for that to happen, you know how I polish my pages endlessly. 17:35, October 2, 2012 (UTC)

Rookwood not Rookou
Alex, I am afraid that link is not 'blood' of Tulula, she does look upon him with same eyes that Arcturus should be. She is impressed that this 'abomination' as he should not exist does appear to be what should would wished for in the twins. Tulula being completely in the dark about the organizational aspect of leadership in Arcturus' life at present and him not being available to see Draco himself does seem strange. However, just reply with 'stop him' and I will. Belle  Linda  19:56, October 2, 2012 (UTC)

MIA
You'll notice that Tulula is disgusted by the elf kind. She would prefer to associate with her very own personal 'rare hybrid creature' servant girl, the only one she allowed in her private Rooms bedroom included when she is in them. We haven't been able to 'establish' her just yet, either way I await the RP that will follow. 20:30, October 2, 2012 (UTC)

Hi Jisk.

I'm planning on getting to responding to those today, but if somehow I don't get to it...

If you feel archiving is appropriate then I'd say you could do so...

On a normal basis I prefer to only have Madame Malkin's only RPed my myself (Madame Malkin) or others RPing workers. However, I haven't been very active the past week and a half (really busy), so if you are interested in RPing Madame Malkin once or twice now that would be fine with me. Since this is one of my few blocks of wiki time, I'll probably update her, but after that if you see something that you feel needs a reply I wouldn't have any problem with you RPing Madame Malkin for that. Of course, if you aren't interested in this, that's also fine by me, so no pressure at all. Thanks for your interest in helping out. 03:06, October 3, 2012 (UTC)

I'm fine with that as long as all the forms she takes are "possible" animagus forms for her, following the normal rules. <font face="cursive" size="3" color"#2F2F4F" >Bond_em7 (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 13:21, October 3, 2012 (UTC)

How to lock a page?
Hi, Jisk. So, Shanis brought somethig up in chat- some unregistered wikia contributor is editing her page, she doens't know who it is, and it's really annoying her. I wnated to know, can you, and do you know how, to make a user-page locked so only registered users can sign it?

Ariadne

 * Posted in Einar's office as Ariadne. Not sure if this belongs in his office or hers (which is a WIP currently).


 * Where would my 7th year fall in Animagi Training ? His animal of choice is is a Kimodo Dragon. Fre  ja  02:13, October 7, 2012 (UTC)


 * Steve and Laela - I am wondering the "bumping" a year process. I have held Laela back, she should be Fifth as well.


 * -Letting you know Belle and myself are familiars in real life and she is contemplating letting me Adopt Jasmine Mendez.

Fre ja  02:13, October 7, 2012 (UTC)

Adoption
Hey, Jisk. Faeriegrrl talked to me, telling me that she would like to adopt the Seawood Sisters, and she told me to ask her if I could help her adopt them. I think an admin has to approve the request first? I'm not so sure.


 * She's the only one adopting them. Thanks, by the way.

Trial
I was wondering when you think we should start the trial. I was about to send owls out to all the members and i didn't know what day to tell them.

RE:Zamira
Thanks jisk, I've done it.

The answer to two questions
First Answer: Elizabeth Swan is not mine and has no relation to my "swan family". So, feel free to do whatever you want to do with the character.

Second: I looked, I did sort the character long ago. The character seems quite overpowered from the page. Forum:Violett Chakra. It does seem that the character has been overpowered more on the page, I do wish I denied the sorting forum for more answers, I guess I did't think about that at the time. I am sorry for not denying that forum, there was something like 20 sorting forums stacked up, so I guess I briefly scanned through the forms. I am a much better sorter (And Snitcher. I assume that isn't a word) nowadays. :D I'm becoming more stricter at sortings. :D Anyway, Thanks for asking!

Talk Bubble
No problem. Those sort of templates are wikia community property, along with others that anyone can use such as the GM bubble or the Ghosts bubble.

I'm assuming you can GM the Gryffindor vs. Slytherin Quidditch match when it begins tomorrow, correct? If not, let me know. Thanks! <font face="cursive" size="3" color"#2F2F4F" >Bond_em7 (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 14:03, October 9, 2012 (UTC)

Archiving
While I appriciate the gesture, in the future can you refrain from archiving my classroom (specifically in this instance the General RP:Transfiguration room). I keep up with that I've responded to, given House Points etc etc through my archiving method. I'm usually on enough it shouldn't be an issue, and the page shouldn't get overfull before I can archive it, but if you see it needs it, could you just drop me a message instead of archiving it yourself? Thanks! <font face="cursive" size="3" color"#2F2F4F" >Bond_em7 (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 14:44, October 9, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah, the animagi class must have gotten archived before I saw that I got my wand back. I'll edit my post if someone else hasn't already. <font face="cursive" size="3" color"#2F2F4F" >Bond_em7  (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 17:43, October 9, 2012 (UTC)

D&B devices
I decided not to post the entire WB here but I wasn't sure about Mol's response to Steve so I wanted to go over it with you. I am sure you know that quite a few spells have no incatation or wand movement, I am not entirely sure that Memory Extraction is a spell that can be cast or just some magic anyone is capable of doing. Either way let me know if this post looks okay to you and we can continue or conclude Steve's visit.

- The user must put all of their focus on the memory they wish to view. Keep it as the only thought in one's mind, giving the most detail possible to all things seen and heard. As the momory fills your mind extract it and and simply place it inside the ball to view it. Ki rá ( talk )

Apologies
I hadn't noticed the post in Tulula's section of the Rookery, I am so sorry. If something like that happens where I let an RP float even though I am active else where on the wiki please feel free to Owl me and let me know. Belle  Linda   01:23, October 10, 2012 (UTC)

All work and no Play
I'll admit right now, HW is going to be a hit or miss for me. If it is too overwhelming to myself, requires far more research then I feel is necessary for me to personally spend my time doing. It won't be done, I may do the assignments of 1 character but not all of them. I do plan to be active in class and else where. Which is the reason I used one of them to ask permission. The Head of House comment made sense which was the reason I made the comment about not having a second character (Nyxie) in another one of your classes.

Hey Jisk, Sadly I was not aware of that. Thanks for telling me though! It was there at some point, so I guessed when I changed it recently it might have been a problem. May need your help readding it, as I forgot how to do that with templates xD. Thanks Zanzan28 (talk) 23:44, October 10, 2012 (UTC) (I added that time stamp)

Address
For my own clarification, would Mark Faltz be addressed as Barrister Faltz or Mister Faltz? I'd very much like to participate in the trial as Ariadne in more then just non-speaking posts and realized I cannot do that because I do not know how to refer to Mark. Fre ja   19:10, October 11, 2012 (UTC)

Misdirection
I was going to point out the Steve and Caly thing, glad you did instead. I was thinking they could attempt to engage the listeners in a sway of the conversation to more about Gruff or Adie. Steve is currently Caly's one and only non blood related friend, that is a not a problem as she finds him endlessly interesting except that she would not have noticed Gruff becoming a more active listener (He put his book down). As for Lee, I personally needed a bit of a comeback from the posts during his entrance into class. In summation, Do let me know where Tulula and Arcturus end up when they continue their conversation please and thank you. Belle  Linda   23:25, October 11, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for clearing that up. I sent, an owl to Mist about it because of the Top Student page I was working on. Fre ja  05:28, October 12, 2012 (UTC) P.S. Thanks for the Trial and error reply, very helpful. I will probably go with "my learned colleague", I like the way it sounds. Fre ja

Not so much
Credit goes to you. You sent an owl and the way that you phrased certain things, making an office from the rubble, (I will be making an office for her soon.) and the Pheonix thing inspired me to take it further than a reply to the owl on her page. The fact that you hope it was fruitless and frustrating makes it all the more hilarious because it was just that for her, not so much for me. Thanks for playing along. Fre ja  19:42, October 13, 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the clarification, it was much funnier before the clear up. So I am going to pretend that you didn't send that last owl and the intention was to frustrate. :) As I said, I enjoyed myself. Ariadne may not have but that does not matter. 19:57, October 13, 2012 (UTC)

D&B Teaching tools
I do not exactly remember but I am not sure Mol has ever worked with Steve's other Ministry issues items aside from the Remembrall. Just kind of hoping for a breif description of what it is she would be working with so I can formulate an idea of how she would 'tinker' with it. Ki rá ( talk ) 03:00, October 14, 2012 (UTC)

Atypical
Thanks for the message....it is rather atypical for me to get that, but I greatly appriciate it. I know I have a bizzilion things around here that all need doing or updating, but I appriciate you dropping me a single comment that shows you care instead of a million more demands.

Trials and Transfiguration
I know you are fully capable, and inthe future if I'm nit around a few days, you can feel free to post alist of places I need to post on my talk page to make it easy when I get back, if you feel so inclined. As for the trials, I'm glad you were aware, just wanted to make sure we're all playing by the same rules. Also, I'm currently going through the transfiguration guide, so expect more comments here on that. I liked the first couple of pages. However, on the third page, about untransfiguration, I think a line at the end saying somthing about "without proper knowledge of what the original target was, or how it was changed, failure to untransfigure it is possible, even likely." My understanding is that untransfiguring something requires precise knowledge of at least what it used to be, or how it was done, or an extrememly skilled wizard. Just a thought. I'm going to conntinue to look it over, and post any other comments I have here. <font face="cursive" size="3" color"#2F2F4F" >Bond_em7 (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 16:06, October 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Also, I don't think the incantation "Reparifarge" is in our Spell List. When I made that list I looked for Harry Potter spells everywhere.  Where did this incantation come from?
 * Also, from our spell list, and somewhere (though I can't remember exactly where right now) the spell for turning a match to a needle is "Metallum". Probably not too proper, but I did get it from some HP source.
 * Rabbit to slippers need to be added to the Spell List.
 * Snail to teapot needs to be added to the spell list.
 * Fera Verto should be updated to Vera Verto if we want to keep things consitant.
 * For snuffilfors, one of the reasons it's an easier transformation is that both mice and books have spines. This makes the actualy change easier to visualize.
 * For avifors, after you summon them, you can use the incantation Avis to make your summoned creatures attack.

So, those things above are the specific things I noticed. I'm going to give you a quick overview of how I teach transfiguration to see if you would like to add anything else. So, first off there are 3 major branches of transfiguration, transformation (changing one thing into another), conjuration (creating something from nothing) and vanishing (changing something into nothing). They all create change, and thus are transfiguration. there are other sub branches the older students deal with (untransfiguration, animagi transformations, appiration, etc), but they're minor in comparison. You guide seems to be all about transformations, so maybe that would make a more appropriate title "A Beginner's Guide to Transformations". Anyway, I'll focus on transformations, as you seem to be. When you transform something, you not only need the proper spell and wand movement, but you also have to visualize what you're turning it into. If you're turning a water goblet into a bird, you have to visualize it having wings, lighter bones, feathers etc, and concentrate on that, or you may only get a partial transformation. Further, if you want the result to actually act like it naturally would (still using a bird as an example) you also have to concentrate on giving it a purpose. Fo, for your bird, you could focus on it's purpose being to fly, or to eat birdseed etc, but if you don't give it some birdlike purpose, it will only look like a bird, and not act like it. Obviously this becomes increasingly difficult with more complex creatures, which is why you generally cannot transfigure things into humans. For conjuration, you can conjure just about anything, but there are rules, and limitations. They only last for a small amount of time, given the caster's power and concentration level. Again, a conjuration needs a purpose to fully cbecome and do what the caster wishes. It can be as simple as conjuring fire, and it's purpose being to burn, or as complex as conjuring stone and giving it the prupose to shine, and possibly getting a gemstone. For vanishing, when you vanish something, it goes into non-being. That being said, using this willy-nilly on living creatures is severly frowned upon, as you're basically killing them. However, the larger more complex the creature, the harder it is. Naturally, anything inorganic or garbage is fairly simple to just vanish. It's practically impossible to do this to a human given their level of complexity. As with transformation and conjuring, purpose is important, as when you are vanishing knowing the purpose of the thing your vanishing makes it easier to get rid of as you more fully understand it. Now, understand all magic can be done simply, by waving your wand and saying the incantation, but the results will not be nearly as good as if you fully understand the subject, and take the disciple and concentration to learn to do it correctly. In my esitimation students who cannot do more than wave their wand and say magic words will not progress beyond the OWL level of magic. Hopefully this helps, or is at least interesting. If you have any other questions, let me know. <font face="cursive" size="3" color"#2F2F4F" >Bond_em7 (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 16:59, October 15, 2012 (UTC)

Animagi Registry

Any other adult characters need to register, and give me a good explanation of why they want this, and prove through their character rp and backstory there character would be able to learn this advanced magic. <font face="cursive" size="3" color"#2F2F4F" >Bond_em7 (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 14:06, October 16, 2012 (UTC)
