Albus, I mentioned before I knew a student of yours. I don't know if you've had time to notice yet, but her personal notes and some of her beginning magical text books have been transcribed into personal journals and stored in the Sanctuary's library.
I've been learning some of your world's magic through her teachings in person, when we had the chance, and through the texts beyond that.
I've run into a magical question where I have some of the pieces, including some magical workings from your world, but I feel I don't have everything I need for the problem I'm trying to solve. I have others here I go to for brainstorming in these cases, but considering your world's magic is my cornerstone, I thought I might go as close to the source as possible. If you've the inclination for magical theory and experimentation.
Ah, but I always have the inclination for magical theory and experimentation. I'd be more than happy to provide any help you might require. Whatever questions you have, I'll do my best to answer.
Don't tell me that, You may end up on my regular rotation of contacts.
I have a project where the goal is to be able to draw memories from a subject and store a copy. I specify copy because I know of your spell that draws out memories to be viewed in a special vessel, I don't wish to take them, just make a version for those who lose those memories to be able to regain them.
Well, you've been incredibly kind with me so far, so I would only be doing my best to repay you in kind.
I see. You are right, I do know of the magic you speak, and I have such a vessel in my office back home. But I think modifying such a spell should be possible, with some tinkering.
My kindness does not make you indebted to me, Albus.
That would be perfect, I'd be more than happy to help you in whatever way I can with the tinkering. I've familiarized myself with some of your magic and can even cast a few of them, but my knowledge is likely a child's compared to yours when it comes to your world's magic. I admit, it's humbling.
Not indebted, no -- but I would still like to repay your kindness in turn.
Even so, you know of magic different from ours -- and that may be helpful, giving us more leeway into creative solutions. With some tinkering, we may be able to work something out.
Then I look forward to working with you. On this and anything else my occasional projects drum up. Remind me to show you the plant lights my friend Hermione and I came up with: a much more simplistic blending of your world's magic and mine, but one I think you might enjoy.
