OK, I don't normally show the stuff I get from Retrospec on the app unless it is REALLY weird (ex. the owl and the accent). But THIS! THIS IS SO COOL! IT'S A MAGIC FLYING BROOMSTICK! And it's apparently a Nimbus 2001 (no idea if that is a model number or year make) and man it is fast! Can we all just admire the the sleekness of this broom, the foot holds, and I'm pretty sure there is some kind of magical cushion so it doesn't hurt to sit on it!

Yes! A Magic. Flying. Broomstick.

Why would you need that.

[blondferret]

It's a mode a travel for witches and wizards. Come on Kenta, it's fun! Are you familiar with that concept?

[toobigtohandle]

Many of the people I know tell me I'm not. I usually defer to their judgement.

[blondferret]

Well, a flying broomstick is fun. Also, think of all the traffic I could avoid while going to work! I can just fly over it!

[toobigtohandle]

That's one practical aspect I didn't think about.

[blondferret]

You must learn to expand your mind Kenta and looks at all of the possibilities! Just like you have to when I send you notes via my owl.
No chances of your response not getting to me because Bronte won't loose it!

You still have to admit that this sounds really very cliché. Owls and broomsticks? Really?

[blondferret]

So what if it's cliche! Besides, you got a horse!
At least I don't have to clean up after my broom!

[toobigtohandle]

... Can you use it to clean, though? Or is it strictly a flying broomstick?

[Kenta can occasionally be a smart-ass. And he usually surprises people with it because they don't expect it.]

[blondferret]

Kenta, do you see the picture of the broom? Do you see the great aerodynamics of the bristles? This broom is obviously meant for flying and not sweeping.

[toobigtohandle]

I believe we established my complete lack of knowledge previously?

I just thought maybe you could multitask with it.

[blondferret]

It's not a broom you sweep with Kenta. It is a broom you ride.

[toobigtohandle]

So witches and wizards have different types of broomsticks, then? Some for flying, and some for sweeping?

[blondferret]

I guess? I haven't actually seen anyone cleaning in any of my memories yet.
