testing

[A note appears on all the dormitory bulletin boards. The handwriting is excessively tidy and on the small side, as if the writer had spent hours upon hours perfecting it.]

I'm testing the capabilities of this...spell system. I'd appreciate it if you'd sign your answers with your name and house while verifying that you read this message, though of course I don't know the particulars of any of your handwriting. A glaring flaw in the design, so I may have to follow up in person later.

In theory the structure of this 'spell' should be similar to the internet: an image is uploaded, then transferred and downloaded in a peer to peer sharing system. In practice, it looks to be as nonsensical as anything else in this school. Let's test this, shall we?

looks like it's going to end in a tie...
hm, well good game!

[blue_ice]

Indeed. If you'd like to play something more challenging...do you know chess?

[How he longs for his deck. This person would probably love to see his dragons.]

though that might be a bit difficult to play
over the message board, haha
