"whining" and "bar" are wrong, everything else is fine.

oh, and "instead"

"instead" is correct, "writing" and "man" are not.

Don't really know about propaganda ...

I begin to grow rather fond of the creatures. Sometimes, perhaps,
I am a little/_m_a_i_n_/,/w_i_i_g/for the day when they can be
governed by wisdom instead of this rough/_a_i_/./"

It's not "wishing", is it?

And the speaker... Coriander? Corvander? Oh, I can't remember his name...

The star who was being punished by having to watch over the Dufflepuds.

Not wishing (although thematically you're a lot closer with that) - but the rest of the quote so far is correct.

The speaker is indeed that star - the first part of his name as far as "Coria" is correct, too

The CAPS key was on by accident, but it worked. Hrm... waiting?

"impatient" is one of the two missing words!

Only "this rough/_a_i_/./" left.

All I'm getting is patil. Which, to my knowledge, isn't even a word.

Hm...

I don't know whether patil is a word or not, but it's certainly not the word I'm looking for.

Might there be some confusion with British spelling? But I didn't think there would be two spellings of this word? At least not with this meaning?

Seriously. I couldn't think of the word "magic" when I was quoting a magician!!!

I think this is some kind of fantasy heresy. You guys should burn me at the stake.

And with Jonathan trying to help you in the Teacup Cafe and all ... didn't you see his post, or did it just not click with your associations?

But apart from the context, those words with only vowels given, are really the hardest - often there are such a lot of options ...

Anyway - this was the last item missing, so GrayMouser, it's your turn!
And some more participants is a good thing!

You'll have to wait for me till I get a chance to run to the library- my copies have disintegrated over the course of a dozen years.

And yes, I am that cheap- even those ones were inherited from a missionary family going back to the States
