Attention Classmates:

I, Ron Weasley, wish to formally apologize to any student, Hufflepuff or otherwise, who might have been offended by my remark in Terry's sorting. The sortee described how he insulted the wonderful Hufflepuff house by calling them 'Bubble-Heads'. I stated in response, in full disapproval, "Why would you go after the Hufflepuffs? Insulting a Hufflepuff is like kicking a legless bunny." Many Hufflepuffs took insult with this comment, believing that what I meant was that they were weak like a handicapped rabbit.

THIS IS NOT TRUE.

I meant to say that Hufflepuffs are as lovable as legless bunnies. Case in point:

Look at the bunny. Don't you just want to hug it? And pet it? Don't you just love it?

So do I. And that was what I meant with my comment, that Hufflepuffs are lovable and a man would be nuts to insult a Hufflepuff, much as he would be nuts to kick a legless bunny. Furthermore, I certainly do not hold the view that Hufflepuffs are weak, evidenced by the fact that I'm bloody terrified right now.

I apologize if you were insulted, and I especially apologize to the girl in the box. I meant no offense. Go Hufflepuffs!

Really sincerely,

(The Real) Ron Weasley

Some Hufflepuffs are incredible people. Some are indeed as lovable as legless bunnies. More lovable, actually, because legless things are creepy.

Some Hufflepuffs are useless wankers who could die tomorrow and not have a single soul would give two shits.

This is true of pretty much every House. Except for the Sue Houses, in which case EVERY memeber is a useless wanker.

I'm working on the popcorn at the moment; special request from another student. Any suggestions on how to get past the cases?

Go with a gut instict and at the same examine every possibility.

Other than that it's basic detective work. Obessively pouring over the details of groups of victims for a common thread helps for finding lead. Going through public records, trashcans, hacking into private records, the basic sort of stuff.

Nothing I didn't think of.

I meant getting the cases open, though, not figuring out the pattern to it.

Oh, easiest way would be to take someone's bribe and make them do it. Such as someone with a magical staff (http://community.livejournal.com/hogwarts_hocus/339125.html) or have you tried "Alohomora" yet.

The cases are magic-repellent, and the lockpicks don't work on them either. Any other angle you can think of?

Find out who it opens for and come up with a way to get what you need while it's open. Alternatively, you could watch someone who is looking a little kernal-ly and see how they get in the case. What have you got so far?

1) Cases don't open for anyone, and the cases just appear randomly when nobody is looking.

2) There are no warning signs of impeding popcornness.

3) It has happened when people are in the room, and is completely soundless.

4) Magic bounces off the cases.

5) The glass is flame-retardent.

6) Tunnelling under them also does not work.

7) There is no door or any sign of the cases having been made. They are perfectly smooth, as if they were grown.

I'll look at the cases myself and see what I can think up.

As long as Ron-san is sorry for what he said, and does not mean to be offensive, Chii accepts on the apology. But Chii is very worried about the bunny in the photo. What happened to the bunny's legs?

I have to say, my dear boy... I'm mildly alarmed that you're so intent on mutilating rabbits. It's quite unnerving from my standpoint.

Nonetheless, apology accepted.

*reads the letter*

*becomes very confused*

*also very scared*

*wibbles*

*runs back to the safety of his room, and Mister Bignose the aardvark*

Stephen is in the room Fillerbunny and Mister Bignose share, playing the cello for the geranium. When Fillerbunny runs in, he stops playing. "Why, Fillerbunny, I did not expect to see you so soon." He notices the small rabbit is trembling. "Whatever has happened?"

From: [identity profile] experimentbunny.livejournal.com
"Oh, Doctor Stephen, there is a letter in the Great Hall." Fillerbunny's ears trembled anxiously. "I do not understand it, but it says something about legless bunnies, and I do not want to be legless again, oh no." He scurried over to Mister Bignose's comforting flank and curled up, still shivering.

Date: 2006-03-27 06:59 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] estebanmd.livejournal.com
Stephen's expression darkens. "A poor jest that would be" if it is one. "Certainly no one will touch a single hair of your fur, let alone remove your legs. Look you, Mister Bignose is a fine figure of an aardvark, and he would not let anyone harm you. He'd lash them with his mighty snout. Shall I go and see about this letter, then, and ward the doors so that no one else can come in at all except for River? and then I will return and we will decide what to do about it." He makes a mental note to ask River how on earth Fillerbunny could have regenerated a set of legs.

Date: 2006-03-27 07:07 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] experimentbunny.livejournal.com
Fillerbunny giggled despite his anxiety, amused and comforted by the idea of Mister Bignose coming to his aid. He patted the aardvar's shoulder and nodded. "Thank you, Doctor Stephen. Yes please."

Stephen returns, feeling irritated with Ron Weasley, mainly, but also understanding why the letter would have upset the rabbit so much. He sits on the other side of Mister Bignose and tries to explain, in the simplest words he can, which is not particularly easy for Stephen to do and may not be entirely successful.

"Mr Weasley is young and perhaps not terribly bright. It seems he said something about Hufflepuffs that made the Hufflepuff students very angry, and he needed to claim he meant something else by it, so they would not be angry anymore. No one plans to dismember -- ah, remove the legs -- from any bunnies, here or elsewhere. The rabbit in the picture has all its limbs; they are simply hard to see because the person in the picture is snuggling the rabbit, because the person loves the rabbit very much, just as River and Mister Bignose love you. And now you see there is no danger, I hope; and if there were, it would not be from the likes of Mr Weasley, whom I understand has a foulmouthed puppet attached to his hand, and has bigger problems to worry about than what to do with rabbits."

Fillerbunny followed Stephen's words very carefully, and at the end let out a long sigh of relief. "Oh. I see. Thank you, Doctor Stephen. I did not understand." He looked embarrassed; if he'd been human, he'd have blushed. "You see, they taught me to read, but it is very hard, and I do not always read well. I am very sorry."

Date: 2006-03-27 07:24 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] estebanmd.livejournal.com
Stephen is touched by the little rabbit's confession. "Why, then, I shall read with you, if you like. I have taught more than one midshipman to read, in my day, and they starting with barely an ABC to their credit. There is no shame in it."

Date: 2006-03-27 07:32 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] experimentbunny.livejournal.com
Fillerbunny looks up at Stephen with big eyes. "Really? Oh wow! I would like to be reading better, yes please." Unable to restrain himself, he gives Stephen a big hug around the ankle, a favor previously bestowed only on River.

Date: 2006-03-27 07:51 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] estebanmd.livejournal.com
Stephen reaches down to stroke the little rabbit's nose, a gesture he has seen wild rabbits confer upon one another as a mark of polite affection. "I doubt I have with me any of the books the younger midshipmen used (http://www.bartleby.com/221/1611.html), which is likely just as well; full of cant and pabulum they were. River and I shall try to find you something suitable in Hogsmeade, or in the library."

From: [identity profile] experimentbunny.livejournal.com
Fillerbunny isn't really familiar with the body language and gestures of normal rabbits, but the instincts for them are still buried deep in his lapine hindbrain, and he nuzzles Stephen's hand in return. "Thank you, Doctor Stephen! I am sure that you and Miss River will find something very useful indeed."

"We shall do our best. Now, would you care to hear me finish playing for the geranium?" Stephen returns to the cello.

Date: 2006-03-27 09:01 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] experimentbunny.livejournal.com
Fillerbunny nods. "Yes please." Content, he leans against Mister Bignose's flank to listen to the music.
