Not playing so nice any more

[wandthief]

I forgot how much fun taunting others could be. Being a tired, helpless old man is getting me nowhere in the sympathy stakes and I have no reason to pretend to be so understanding any longer. So I may as well be myself again.

Clearly I was correct in my beliefs that Muggles are far inferior to wizards. You cannot seem to do very much without magic - or not very efficiently, at least. If not for your own recent failings the ultimate proof is my current non-magical condition. So all I can do is pity you that you are stuck that way when I at some point will regain my true powers.

Any other demons or otherwise supernatural beings here... Don't try to defend them. You have power and they have not. I'm sure you've been glad of that at some time or other if you have not outright used that power against them.

Perfect. Good. Because I am untrustworthy.

And I'll admit that as another fault.

So why not try to be trustworthy?

[wandthief.livejournal.com]

I have no current need to try to do that.

Everyone needs to be trusted by someone.

I made some potions once. I should have been trusted with them - and I made them fine and properly - but I was not asked to make any more. For all I know they were tossed overboard and not ever used, even if they could have been helpful. Nobody trusted me even when I was doing the right thing.

Maybe one day somebody will trust me with something else and then maybe I can prove that I can do it - but right now, it does not matter.

Or, maybe they didn't need any more. Or maybe, just maybe, you'd proved yourself untrustworthy with any kind of magic, by attacking people.

I don't know, but I'm fairly sure they weren't that needed - Roundworld medicine seems far superior to anything I've ever seen.

I had one little incident here... From what I've seen others have done far worse or made multiple attacks on others.

Oh, yes, but I have my words. That apparently are inflaming people worse than anything I could physically do right now without magic.

Amnzing what a few taunts can do... I didn't think the people here were that sensitive to mere words. But their aggression has been most amusing - and has been very interesting as a study in human behaviour, particularly that of the common Muggles.

And I'm fairly sure we'd be reluctant to let them make drugs too.

As I said earlier, their anger won't be amusing when you're being beaten up - the last thing you want to do is taunt the mob. You have to assert authority over them, but taunting them doesn't do that.

I'm trying to advise you not to get yourself in trouble here, but you're clearly not listening, just like an idiot criminal. I'll leave it here, I think.

I thank you for your concern. It is so very touching.

You may say you 'told me so' later.

I prefer to prevent disorder, rather than taunt people over the inevitable.

Order is dull.
