Gentlemen, calling your penis your wand is not cute, funny or attractive. Find a different term, and thank me for the advice later.

Professor!

[ DEAR GOD - ]

[plaide]

Miss Granger, there's hardly anything to be ashamed of. After you've heard the line a hundred times, it simply gets old.

I would not call those who think such is funny or attractive, 'gentlemen'.

[plaide]

We are agreed on that. However, I find there's no call for me to be rude about such a thing. I try not to stoop to levels I disapprove of. [ Or at least not when her students are watching. ]

Let's hope a few heed that advice

How very honorable of you. Ms...?

Professor Minerva McGonagall. Please, Minerva will do. And you are?

[plaide]

Mind you it has been a few years since I have heard that sort of comment, but I've seen my share of students enough to know that some things do not change.

[duplicities]

I have little hope it ever will, but reminding them of their foolishness sometimes produces results.

My hope, failing that, is that the young ladies will resist falling for such tripe and perhaps hold themselves to a higher standard. It sounds like you've got your head in the right place, though. You always use a condom, correct? You're aware of the proper way to apply one?

[child_radical]

...don't complain when you start hearing the more colorful terms.

[plaide]

Don't be surprised if the more colorful get you a good slap.

[child_radical]

I wasn't referring to myself going that route.

Teenagers?

[Lily sounds amused mostly because she is.]

Professor, you'll only provoke them to make up more names for their penises you know.

[boutant]

[ Must. Not. Snicker. ]

You know, Ginny told me no one actually does that.

[duplicities]

[ OH WHAT AN UNFORTUNATE TURN THIS CONVERSATION HAS TAKEN. ]

I do. I prefer to be cautious in my endeavors.

Oh, I do prefer Professor McGonagall. I am Jericho Barrons. [Plus, Barrons never calls anyone by their first name unless he knows them very, very well.] May I ask what you are a professor of?

[plaide]

They do insist on being predictable.

[intheblanks]

Go easy on them. It's the only time in your life it still does feel like magic.

Voice;

[plaide]

Lily Potter, I sincerely hope you wouldn't be making any up.

[plaide]

Ginny has a good head on her shoulders. I've had more students in my office...

[ Sigh. ]

[boutant]

Her brothers?

[alwaystreasured]

My instincts tell me that will help nothing.

Professor McGonagall, whether I do or not, I'll assure you I'll keep my private life with James, private.
