Frank took a biscuit, and looked around the office nervously. Teacher's offices always made him anxious. "Uhh... well Professor I was just wondering about OWLs this year. I mean, I've looked into what I need to be an Auror, but I'm worried I won't make it. So I was wondering if you could erm, recommend any extra books or studying strategies or anything of the like? I mean, I know my grade is okay now, but it never hurts to stay on top of these things right?" Frank finished lamely. |

McGonagall nodded. "Of course Mr. Longbottom, that's very wise of you to get ahead and prepare yourself." she grabbed a spare bit of parchment and wrote down a list of books for him to study and passed it to him. "As for study methods, I'd suggest you avoid anyone with the last time Prewett, Potter, Pettigrew, and/or Black. The rest I am confident that you can manage." she nodded. "And for the record Frank, I have no doubts about your abilities to become a fantastic Auror." |

"Thanks, I'll certainly use this list." He smiled, feeling quite a bit better. He took the list, and tucked it into his robes. As he put it in, he felt the letter is his pocket. The one from Alice. He'd been carrying it everywhere with him since receiving it. He momentarily considered asking Professor McGonagall for advice about it, but no. That was too weird, even for him. "And um... thanks. I really hope I can make it. Herbology's my biggest problem, but Alice Lewis said she might help me out a bit. So hopefully that will help." Crap! Somehow he managed to bring her up anyways!

"Alice Lewis would be an excellent tutor, Frank." McGonagall agreed. "Good luck." she ushered him to the door, adding quietly, "She's also a very pretty girl, isn't she?" [that was so not meant to sound creepy, even though it so totally does] |

"Oh. Yes, I suppose she is." Frank allowed himself to be escorted to the door, a good deal bit too distracted to notice it seemed as if McGonagall was trying to get rid of him. "Well, thanks Professor!" he added as he left the office. [Heh, for some reason I can see McGonagall doing that in a subtle non-creepy way. ^_^] |

"Hey, Mins." James bounded into the office almost before Frank had left, slumping across the chair. "Have a good summer? Merlin, haven't you missed these little chats? I know I have. Here, I brought you Italian sweets." Grinning, he dug in his pocket and pulled out a little box. "Liqueur chocolates, for my favourite teacher. And my dad gave me a note saying I'm allergic to good behaviour. It's for medical reasons." His grin taking on a hint of the smirk, he pushed an envelope across the desk to her. "Signed, sealed, and genuine. You can ask him if you don't believe me. It's heriditary - he's got the same problem." |

"Potter, sit down." McGonagall said, opening the box. "This is... suprisingly kind of you, Mr. Potter. Thank you." she opened the letter and rolled her eyes. "As for your father... he I could say a number of things about. Anyway, back on topic, I suppose you know what I'm about to say." |

"I should follow the rules, try to be a better student, remember that it's OWLs year and Remus is a prefect, blah, blah, blah, blah?" James suggested, with a winning smile. "Professor, we have this talk every single year. Of course I know what you're about to say. That's why I brought proof that it's medically impossible for me to obey you, and it hurts me deep inside that you don't trust me or my father. Deep, deep inside." He clasped a hand over his heart, looking up at her with mock-sincerity from the chair he was, by now, so far sunk down in that he was almost horizontal. |

McGonagall nodded. "Just as long as we're on the same page Mr. Potter. I feel that once you are punished for all of your wrong-doings you at least deserve to have the rules reminded to you before hand. Even though it gets more and more pointless each year." she sighed. "I suppose that is all, there's nothing more for you to recite and ignore after all. You may go." |

"No time spent with you is ever pointless, Professor," James said chivalrously, grabbing a biscuit out of the box on her desk, and rolled out of the chair onto his feet. "Which reminds me. Did you get a haircut? You look, if possible, even more ravishing than usual. A vision of beauty, as I'm sure Sirius has already told you." |
