"Can I say a bad word?" Rowan asked, glancing around the room.
          	
          	"I'm going to get a rope," Mireya said, standing up in the window well.
          	
          	"Where are you going to get a rope?" Rowan demanded. "I'm going to say a bad word."
          	
          	"Here, try using my feet as steps," Mireya suggested. She sat down and dangled her sneakered feet into the workshop. Rowan attempted to use them to climb out with them. "Stop, stop!" Mireya cried. "You're pulling me in."
          	
          	"Shit," Rowan declared.
          	
          	"Samuel is going to kill us if he finds out about this," Mireya agreed.

*typo in the 4th paragraph -- should be "Rowan attempted to use them to climb out."

Wait I just realized.
          
          Does Argus Filch even sleep?? Cause kids are always sneaking out at night and he catches them, but he cleans shit during the day, so. When does he sleep? Does he power-nap during each class period? Does he have a magical alarm that rings whenever something happens that he needs to deal with and he just sleeps the rest of the time?
          
          I need answers.

No ok but I found this math problem about a 'Dr. Potter' who offers polio and measles vaccines and those vaccines are mostly given to babies and young kids I think so now I'm thinking about Harry Potter as a doctor giving kids shots and being all sweet and whatever 'cause they're little kids and scared of needles and it makes my heart so happy??
          
          And then because I'm in far too deep I started thinking about James Potter doing the same thing and tbh he might be better at it. And then, because I'm a hopeless fangirl, I started thinking about Sirius and Remus doing it too. Like James is doing that thing people do with kids where they try to be cool and in touch with whatever crap is happening online but he does it in a way that isn't painfully annoying to the kid. Remus is a little clueless on how to talk to the kid but he's got this really comforting voice he uses and I mean *I* would feel safe--
          
          And Sirius is lowkey really good at it, like he's asking the name of the kid's plushie or talking about the picture on their shirt and also he's just really cool? Sure doctors have to wear the coat and whatever but they've got all these cool shoes and lanyards and when I was a kid I thought dorky adults who talked to me were like the best people ever. And then sometimes there's an older kid, like 13/14, and they're doing a good job hiding it but he can tell they're internally freaking out, so he talks to them and tries to get them to smile. And then one time one of them notices the subtle little pride pin on his lanyard and says, 'I like your pin' all quiet and stuff, and he says thanks and they have this little moment of 'oh yeah we're on the same page here' and he just casually pats them on the shoulder as they're rolling their sleeve back down and it feels safe and nice. 
          
          Yes I have a problem if you couldn't tell.

I'm 100% going to write this at some point but if anyone else wants to as well I want to read it.
