Hey Grasshopper. Sorry to bail and then dump this on you, but I'm kind of stuck with a magical medical consult and will be tied up for a bit.
You might have noticed the school's got a new boy, Billy Kaplan. He's a magic user too and he's going to need someone to sit on him for now until I can get sorted with regular lessons on how not to fuck with things. You up for being his buddy and making sure he doesn't blow the place up?
It'll be a learning experience. ;)

You're punishing me, and I haven't done anything yet. Preemptive punishment? I didn't think you capable of this, Sefton.
Don't be mad at me if I have to trap him somewhere. I still remember how you dealt with me that fateful day we met.
Do I, at least get to call him something funny?

Think of it not so much punishment as karma. And you can do anything you like, short of maiming - he's the one who bloody near drowned NY with rain last month. He can tell you all about how I smacked him one. ;)
And the nickname is all yours. Do me proud, Grasshopper. ;)

Oh so it was him? Now people can stop giving me the bad eye. I told everyone, if it really was me or my evil grandma, the rain would've been acid.
He's not like, totally whiny right?

Yep, that was him. I may be a tad pissed off at him still for the mess he made of my city.
I have noticed any whining - how about you email him and introduce yourself and see for yourself? ;)

One day you're going to have to teach me the basics of urban magic. Can you even teach that stuff?
Alright. What's the worst that could happen right?
