Just one each though please. And feel free to expand upon the text in your books, that's what I'm looking for. If anyone says something you would like to respond to, please do. But as this discussion will include opinions as well as known facts, please remember to keep it friendly. If you disagree with something, be nice in your replies." Isabelle paused to look around, then narrowed her eyes. "This also applies to the discussion we'll be having later on." Just in case they wondered.

Gamp's Law? Exceptions? Penelope glanced back up at the board, her eyes instantly finding the word "food" up there. Food was an exception? Was that good? Bad? Having never heard of these "laws" before, she had no idea.

She decided she'd still take a shot at answering though.

After half-listening to the other students' explanations and opinions, Penelope raised her hand and said, "I think food is an exception 'cause it's too awesome to be just created out of nowhere. Magic is cool but it's not cool enough to create food. Besides, food created out of thin air would probably taste like it, and who wants air food? Probably wouldn't fill you up at all." And was the point of food if it didn't actually fill up your stomach when you were hungry?

...

Exactly.
