books and cleverness | i like you a latte Irithel hated physical contact, but seeing some kids hold hands made her think that she would like someone to hold hers. She wanted a nice friend to tell her that everything would be alright, even though the lie would not improve anything but her own mood.
She raised her hand to answer the first question. "You can use logic. Give them reasons to do what you want. Make the rationale sound nice and hide the ugly things." Honestly, guys. Imperio? Blackmail? Torture? Logical persuasion should be the first step for anyone with a brain. It was done to them all the time without them noticing: in daily conversations, advertisements, academic reports, also in this class for indoctrination purposes, but this clever Ravenclaw could always spot fallacies. That was why she would never believe in pure-blood supremacy.
