When students walked into the Danger Shop today, they found themselves surrounded by a very cartoonish, Seussian landscape. Thursday was there, unchanged by the surroundings, waiting patiently for them all to gather.

"Good morning. Change of plan. I don't think we need to spend any more time on theory. You'll learn much more from testing different reactions up against opponents in a more practical setting. Villains are not always dangerous. Villains are not always out for world domination. There comes a time in the career of every hero, crime fighter, detective and normal person who gets caught up in trouble on a regular basis when they meet the Major Annoyance."

Right on cue, this little fellow rode in on his...creature.

"As anyone who was raised on Earth in the 20th century would know, this," Thursday announced, "Is Sam I Am. He will badger you. He will hinder your efforts to exist without going mad. Use whatever you have on you, work alone or in groups, and thwart him. Be warned, he's trickier than he looks." Thursday stepped aside and Sam I Am took over.

"I am Sam! Sam I Am! Would you like green eggs and ham?"

"It's probably the same things he showed you in the DA. A lot of hexes and jinxes," she says. "The Patronus is the main thing I've been working on."

"Have you found a suitable venue in which to practise?"

"I've been practicing in my room," she answers. "When my roommate isn't around. I wouldn't mind somewhere different, though. I keep getting distracted."

"The shop is not much better. Too many things to hit and clean up." Luna tilted her head to the side, "I've not done much casting in the classrooms but this one didn't mind much yesterday."

"The classrooms seem all right," she says. "I've had to use my wand in the Danger Shop as well. I suppose we could always check to see if there's a room available for practice."

"Perhaps we should ask about this?" Luna suggested. She had no idea to whom they would speak, but she was rather sure that if she were going to be flinging hexes the Danger Shop was the place to do it.

"We could," she says, slowly. "The shop could even work out some scenarios for us, possibly."

Luna wondered, "perhaps one of the professors could help us with that?"

"I'm sure we can find someone," she says. "We do have someone teaching... something like DADA that might approve it."

"He did know about chocolate, though one or two of his other suggestions were, I think, questionable."

"Definitely," Hermione nods, frowning at the memory of the classes. "He could add guidelines, perhaps, but I'm sure we already have a lot of information we'd need to work with."

"To encourage a more...hands off roll for him and to further sharpen our skills, perhaps we ought consider dueling." Luna said. "A dueling club that is. We are not the only witches here."

Hermione's nodding a lot. "It would give all of us a chance to better develop our skills and maybe learn some things the others don't know," she says. "And if people from other types of witchcraft are interested, maybe there's even more we can learn."
