"Teen Library D&D- I'm a Librarian, not a Wizard." Topic

Minor little humor moment from the local library where I work.

Our regular weekend D&D group has now split into two groups operating simultaneously (makes for very interesting disconnect as I overhear entirely different adventures going on). The second group has some newer players, one of whom approached me the other day.
Teen: "I have a problem, Mr. Howard. I need your help."
Me: "Well, what can I help you with?"
Teen: "I don't have my character sheet."
Me: "Okay. Did you leave it here?"
Teen: "No, I left it at home."
Me: "Well, I can't do anything about that."
Pause while we both look at each other.
Me: "…So, do you need a blank character sheet? I can print one out."
Teen: "No, the DM has those."
Me: "Okay, so what do you need?"
Teen: "I don't remember all the stats for my character."
Me: "Oh."
Another pause.
Me: "Do you need a copy of Player's Handbook so you can look up your character class information?"
Teen: "No, we've got that, too."
Me: "Well, what do you want my help with?"
Teen: "I don't know."
Teen then goes back to the game.

I was left to wonder if he wanted me to cast Dimension Door, Teleport, Clairvoyance, or Telepathy to retrieve the lacking sheet.
Maybe I should have shouted "Accio character sheet!"
But alas, I did not have a wand handy, and that would have been the wrong milieu anyway.

I'm a teacher and I get that stuff all the time. Kids!

When our group's kid (he's 20, but…) did that, he called home and his sister sent him a photo of it to his phone, with some pithy comments added to the sheet…

"I was left to wonder if he wanted me to cast Dimension Door, Teleport, Clairvoyance, or Telepathy to retrieve the lacking sheet."

Pfff, some wizard you are Howard.:) You should have told him that those spells weren't in your spellbook.:) Thanks for that, put a smile on my face.

BTW: Another book coming your way, be on the lookout.

Thanks for all the books and stuff! The kids love it all.
