Defense Against the Dark Arts for Muggles [Wednesday]

[lycanthromoony.livejournal.com]

Sirius was in a positively brilliant mood today as the students gathered in the Danger Shop for their final examination. He'd tell you it was because it'd finally gotten the cursed thing to work right for once, but that wasn't entirely it.

"Welcome to your final," he said, smiling and gesturing his hand out to encompass the scene that surrounded them: a beautiful Scottish castle in the background, rolling hills surrounding them, strange sentient tree over to the right...Hogwarts as Sirius remembered it from his school days.

Remus was also in a somewhat eerily good mood. He would say it was because he had replaced his beloved paper-making documentary, but that wasn't it, either. "This is a comprehensive, practical exam that should demonstrate how prepared you are to face the Dark Arts in everyday life. If needed, Professor Black and I can step in, but I'm confident it won't be necessary. Best of luck, and it's been a pleasure teaching all of you."

Pick out the vampire in the goth club

Or MAYBE THIS ONE IS, DUN DUN DUN. The vampire, you see, is the one with fangs, but that's basically the only difference.

Jonas (and his candy bar) felt a little more uneasy about this one. Vampires weren't something he was overly familiar with but all he'd read about them labeled them as dangerous.

Still, he found himself slowly perusing the club, checking teeth while trying to appear unassuming. Unluckily, he couldn't seem to find the vampire on the first go around. So, he walked again, this time offering the candy bar up. Maybe that would work.

They all looked like they could be of the blood to Jack, so he waited in a corner to see if anyone seemed especially hungry when he or she looked at his fellow patrons.

Unfortunately, they were all trying for that, too. Jack decided to walk through the club to see if anyone didn't seem to be breathing. Flashing their fangs in public would just be declassé.

Okay, yeah, this would be the tricky one; even if they were the kind of vampires that went bumpyface and yellow-eyed like they did in her world, they'd be pretty dumb to vamp out in the middle of a club. Her brilliant idea was to go around subtly flicking holy water at people, which again assumed they'd be susceptible to it (could she just go back to her world's rules? This was so confusing) and that she had any on her, which she didn't.

That pretty much left her with the standby of scanning the crowd while she ran through her Watcher's list of Behavior To Keep An Eye Out For in her head, paying particular attention to people heading for the exits.

It was a goth club. The behavior thing was going to be a little bit hard to pick out.

Vampires. She wandered about cautiously, trying to look for anyone with fangs. If only she was better about getting people to smile...

Huh. What Warren wouldn't give for a cross or something to wave around, here.

... Nevermind that he already felt like he stuck out like a sore thumb in this place. A guy with big, fluffy angel wings on his back? Was getting the same looks from pretty much everybody, vampire or not, and those looks were the sort that wondered if maybe he'd walked into the wrong club by mistake.

Alas, he didn't find the vampire.

*Fwoosh* Suddenly there was a tall dark and sexy boy standing beside her.

"Woah, how'd you do that?"

"I am a Vampire."

"Are those smoke bombs?"

"...Yes."

Leda encouraged everyone to smile. The really Goth kids refused. Then several who did turned out to have fangs. Great, which ones were real?
