The one and only, super-friendly, very angry, accident-prone, full of angst muggleborn child that everyone referred to as Ash. Why did they call her Ash? Lots of reasons. It was very fitting. And "Ash" clearly had some sort of reputation. They might not know her, but they all knew what she'd done. "I must admit, when I walked into the first day of class this year, I did not expect the headmaster to threaten to send me on a 'one way trip to the afterlife. Painfully.' How do I even top "craziest first day of school" next year? I have lots of impressive records to uphold." Unfortunate records.

Sounded like the “supervision” wasn’t paying all that much attention. Wand loss for a week? Sounded like a rough punishment, considering wands were required for most lessons. Still nowhere near the severity of punishments Mr. Scary Headmaster was threatening. ”Oh, wow. What a year.” He leaned in a bit closer to hear Ash’s whispered words. ”It is quite disconcerting.” He was being very conservative in his word choice, because he was no idiot and he knew the headmaster would sooner do away with him than let him run around the castle sharing what he really thought, but he hoped Ash would understand that behind his careful diction he was really thinking about how horrible the headmaster was. People who threatened children and hurt animals were the worst of the worst. ”It’s Hogwarts, so I’m sure something will happen to top that. Like the whole castle flipping upside down or a whole herd of hippogriffs running rampant in the great hall or something else weird.” They really couldn’t get a peaceful term, could they?
