Dude! A couple weeks before Goblet of Fire came out in theatres, some students held a Potter Preceptorial, in which we discussed anything and everything Potter (and concluded definitively that Snape was not evil, just a petty, sadistic jerk, thankyouverymuch). Afterwards, I ended up having a discussion with one of the moderators, a grad student named Veronica Schanoes, who turned out to be a Tonks/Moody shipper. Out of pure coincidence, I had seen some Tonks/Moody fanart that morning, so I told her I'd send it to her. We emailed each other once more, and that was that.

Three and a half months later, Ko and I were looking over the new course offerings for the Fall, and she spotted a jaw-droppingly awesome course called Feminist Fairy Tales. We both were sold before we saw "Terry Pratchett" on the list of authors. Whilst squealing, I noticed that the professor's name was V Schanoes. I googled the name, and Veronica was the only person that Google turned up in association with Penn. I emailed Veronica and asked her if she was indeed the V Schanoes listed as teaching the class. That was a week ago. She just emailed me back, saying that yes, she was teaching the class, and she looked forward to seeing me and my roommate in September.

I WILL BE TAKING THE MOST AWESOME-SOUNDING CLASS AT PENN FROM A TONKS/MOODY SHIPPER!
