Care for Magical Creatures; Friday, Period 2 [ 01/30 ].
"Good morning, students!" As usual, they were meeting in the classroom, with all the comfortable pillows that would do much better than desks and Minsc was greeting them all jovially with Boo close at hand. "Welcome back to class! Remember how last class we discussed spotting out a regular old animal from a person transformed into an animal? If not, well, I sure hope that was quite a blow causing you to forget it! Today, we are going to talk about making a very important checklist to see if our friends are transformed! For example:
"If I were to make a checklist for whether or not a human is actually Boo, it might include things like: Is he eating everything in sight? Is he twitching his nose as if he would usually have whiskers? Does he have a tendency to burrow in crinkly things?"
"And, also for example, if Boo were to make a list for me," he chuckled, "which is a very big if since Boo cannot write or speak languages our petty brain can comprehend, he would include: Are there any noticeable purple markings by his eyes? Telltale scars? What happens when I put him by this gnoll, which is dirty and awful and must be immediately vanquished? Things like that!"
"I'd like you each to get together with someone else in class and discuss the sorts of things they someone would put on a list about you! There is an uneven number, so groups of two or three are both okay! And your HOMEWORK will include making lists for your friends! You can never be too prepared! Awareness is key! And then, when your friends are turned into animals, you will know it is them and not accidentally fry up that rabbit for dinner or slay that wee dragon thinking yourself in harm's way!"
