MMMM, Ev, these scones are SO GOOD, my fingers are all sticky, it's like I have a sticking charm on my fingers! That tastes like cinnamon. Why can't spells have tastes, I don't get that, like they have words? But why can't we taste what Expelliarmus is? I would think it is bitter, like cardamon. And there is a lovely licorice taste to Alohamora, I am sure. I wonder if you cast a spell at something, if you licked it, you would find out? Though if you hexed someone and then you licked them, that would be a bit rude unless you ask, I'm sure, and maybe the taste of the person would influence the taste of the spell since I firmly believe that all people have different tastes too. I bet he tastes like dreams and perfect and orange sherbert.

I wonder what clouds taste like. I'd hope cotton candy, but I bet it's something depressing like chalk dust.

What? What spells taste like? I think that's a lovely thing to contemplate. I cast a charm on my hair and I tried to taste it, but it just tasted like hair, which I am sure was a biased reading, somehow. Maybe I should hex a chair, that would be a solid, neutral subject to taste. Hex different areas?

I wonder if spells have colours, too.

I didn't hear my hair complaining, though! My tongue is a valid exploratory object for research, and without complaint, it forges on in the quest for taste in spells.

That's what we need, to charm inanimate objects to speak to us, why can't they? I mean, according to Plato, they all have ideals in the world that they aspire to be, so why can't they have thoughts to correspond to their existence? It's like how Muggles have devises to tell them what their dogs or babies are saying, we really need to be able to communicate with the things in the world that have no voice! We're wizards, this can't be impossible for us!

And then we can work on growing bananas here in England, since I have yet to see a banana tree here.

I am? But it's just another sensory object! I mean, think about it: we always think with eyes, ears, nose, touch--taste is so neglected! As wizards, wouldn't our powers expand the more that we tap into our senses? Especially the Inner Eye. As a seer, it's so essential for me to have all of my six senses equally strong, and I think all of us should too!

Don't you think Professor Trelawney needs more poufs in her room for sitting? I think they are so much more comfortable than the couches.

Lisa: poufs are what you sit on, they have nothing to do with the inner eye!

Speaking of: on Thursday, when you are told? Just in advance--I'm sorry that you heard that on your birthday.

You know what our common room needs? Things that rotate, like the stairs. Wouldn't that be amazing, if where you sit moved on a random basis? Think about how much more social you would be with your housemates if you got to interact with different people every thirty minutes because where you sat changed up! Oh! I should mention this to Professor Sprout!

Luna? Luna believes in things that aren't real. There are so many incredible things that are real here in the wizarding world, why wouldn't you want to explore it to its full! I don't understand that. No, but everyone always seems to ask that--maybe because we both have blonde hair, I suppose, but I dye mine so much that I don't really think that should be much matter. Now my hair is green, so that I can show solidarity with Ev's owl, Eleanor, we're green together, like shamrocks! I think I should carry Eleanor with me to classes, I think that we'd make a bang up team.

Don't you think that a shamrock would boost Felix Felicis? Professor Slughorn is about to make a new batch, and I am trying to convince him to let me try a variation. It's like variations on mixing, though once an experiment of mine singed off my eyebrows, but that was okay, it was in the name of experimentation.

I wish there was a potion made of snow.
