Chapter 25. Technologic

[thebestseller]

Man, these little phone things are great. I now know what my next childrens' book is going to be- "Bernard Guesses Your Weight In Pigs". Or perhaps "Bernard And The Clacks", once I figure out what in the hell a clack is.

...OK, so the concept needs work, but the point is I can't wait to see what other pearls of wisdom and inspiration this has to offer.

Oh, yes, and I look very very fetching in those nice robes you get in the Wilderness. I'm a Ravenclaw!

... place seems kinda familiar, though. Not TOO familiar, just vaguely.

[[OOC: It has been established in Castle canon that Harry Potter is indeed a real series of fiction books, so yeah. XD]]

I'm pretty sure it's some kind of university. Maybe the colors have something to do with what's being studied. It seems like a big place for just four categories, though.

If it is a university, perhaps they are divided by grade level.

[of-mindelan.livejournal.com]

Grade level?

That would be proficiency, right?

[sumi-eight.livejournal.com]

Age, actually. That would imply that it's a four-year institution, so that may or may not be the case.

[of-mindelan.livejournal.com]

If it's study, though... Maybe the newest students start with one set of colors, and graduate to the next once they've been at it for a few years and can show their progress.

[She's definitely thinking of the page-squire-knight system.]

That's possible as well. Perhaps the library would have information regarding this subject.

A university, eh? Some university it is, then. Flying brooms and changing rooms... I would've loved to go there.

If it's all the same, I'd rather not be part of a mages' school. I'd hardly fit in.

[Of course, in her mind mage school and the convent are interrelated... either way, not somewhere she'd be comfortable.]

... mages' school?

[of-mindelan.livejournal.com]

It couldn't have been made without magic, and it does look like magic is part of what's taught here. There's even a high tower.

THAT IS SO. DAMN. COOL.

[of-mindelan.livejournal.com]

[She has to get her Gooseberry to explain "cool" in that context, and then isn't entirely sure what it means. Something positive, anyway.]

I guess. If you start going through the little twisty side passages or one of the hidden doors, I suggest you be or bring someone who can fight at least a little. It's not very safe.

Oh, definitely. I'm bringing my friend and my daughter down at the very least.
