continuing the tradition of slamming fin into every single universe, at s.hiz university, fin takes a particular interest in animal studies as well as, not the practice of sorcery, but the history and precense of it in oz. and he's outwardly anti wizard lmao.

he won't say where he got it. there were a few roaming around the campus, slipped under desks and traded in hallways. just a pamphlet that outlined many of the wizards failings, propaganda against the great and powerful that finley hid within the textbook of animal studies he held up on the table. reading through the printed text, fin squints a bit at the speculation of the wizard having something to do with the demotion of animals. all he wanted was to get to the bottom of it before something happened to doctor dillamond, or any of the other animals at shiz. he doesn't notice there's something standing behind him until she gasps. finley slams the book shut, hiding the pamphlet as he turns to face galinda. 'why're you looking over my shoulder?' he questions with a raised brow, only slightly panicked that someone had seen him reading something against the wizard. 'i didn't even know you came to the library,' @ephemaera.

incoming case . . . caress. sender gently caress's finley's face. + i really want to ask what’s going on in your head right now,  but I’m afraid i won’t like the answer.

everyone here believed shiz university was a good place to be. a prestigious school in the great land of oz. finley couldn't say it was a bad school — far from it. what he could say was that there were things happening behind the scenes that he wanted to get to the bottom of. things that seemed malicious. things that didn't sit right with finley, even if he didn't quite know what they were yet. never had the boy been quiet about his suspicion of the wizard himself ( if he was all knowing, wouldn't he know what was going on in oz? with the animals? ). most of his classmates silenced him, or tried to. but he still couldn't help thinking about what was happening with the animals of oz. he's in his own thoughts when he feels a gloved hand press against his cheek, grabbing his attention immediately, eyes roaming to meet galinda's in an attempt at focusing on her. 'you won't. like the answer, i mean,' the touch to his face calms him down some, but not enough to keep the gears in his head from turning. 'unfortunately, i'm scheming and plotting. two things i'm sure you find hideoteous,' @euphoriabled.

'have you heard anything? about, uh - doctor dillamond, or the animals?' after that day in class, when the professor turned his chalkboard and found a horrible and prejudice message left in dripping red paint, finley has been trying to figure out what was happening. why the animals were being run off, and why oz was beginning to turn on them. 'the wizard has to have something t'do with it. right? i mean . . . who else?' @gravdefy + elphaba.
