OW! Bugger!
melanieoftheparker:
They are. What were you doing, anyway?
Herbology. The stalk of that plant was far rougher than I had anticipated. Humph.

He is a boy though, and they usually take at least three or four times before they understand what it is you’re trying to say. I hope for his own sake though that he listened the first time, because I can’t imagine it would be a good time for him if someone catch him trying to break into Hogwarts.
That’s it! We’ve found the problem. Our friendship has upset the balance of nature...

bettybraithwaite:
I hope so, but I know I hate it when other people walk in late. It’s just so rude. I can’t believe I might be one of those people. I’m sure you have, thank you so much.
It’s nice that you take your classes and studies so seriously. I feel like so many people I know don’t care much.

Yes, I am. It’ll be in my room. No one will see it but me. I promise. I’m not trying to embarrass you. I am just proud of you because you admitted to liking snogging me.
No. She’s a bitch. I don’t like her. You can’t change my opinion on this.
Cheers,

Now I just need you to admit you like cuddling me and we’ll be even.
Fine. Of course I can’t.

I ran into some third years in a broom closet.
saraphiness:
Should third years even be doing those things in general?

I don’t care. I’m framing that owl so that people know. I mean I know you like me more than just the snogging, but it’s good to know that you do like the snogging. Because who would have thought that innocent Gladys Gudgeon would enjoy snogging as much as she does?
Yes, I am not a murdered, don’t worry. And all right, fine, I won’t punch her. Least I won’t seek her out. If she...

There it is. A good snog. That’s all I need to hear. Or read, rather.
Yes, well, I’ve never kill anyone if that helps you. I would never kill anyone either. Just rough them up enough so that they don’t bother me again.
Cheers,

Of course that’s all you took away from that. The snogging bit was a joke. I like more about you than the snogging! Don’t tell...

Yeah, yeah of course. I can’t imagine that Dumbledore would let the school go unprotected. If anything was a serious risk, I’m sure it wouldn’t get onto the grounds, or at least not into the castle. I suppose it’s good to know that he can get in if he really needs to though.
This is strange. I’m usually the positive one. But I don’t think that’s necessarily possible when it comes...

It’s not something I’d regularly do, but you’re are right. If they are my best mates, they should make an exception to see me happy. I’m not a happy person, obviously. You said so yourself I’ve been standoffish for the last five years. But I will try for Finn. ‘e deserves the very best. Thank — Oh, we’re hugging. Thank you, Gladys.
Exactly! You should tell them that,...

That’s the worst reason to fancy anyone, kidding or not. You can pretend to be shallow and just say you fancy me for my muscle. Least that’s believable. Sort of. Considering you have trouble being near me when my shirt isn’t on.
Okay, so maybe my method doesn’t solve everything either. But it sure as hell makes me feel better afterward. And hopefully they’ll be a bit scared and...

Well, at least people can’t say that you fancy me for my charm or any other rubbish because it’s clear I have none. Nor do I pretend to, but I’ve met blokes who are like that and birds fall way too easily for that sort of phony prince charming act.
I’m sure it has some value. I’m just saying it can’t fix everything like I know you think it can.

I don’t know, but those prefects do complain a lot about the work they have to do. It means that you were a bit of a goody two shoes and if I had gone up to you acting like you had done something wrong, you would have absolutely gone bonkers. Might have been good for a laugh.

Because he said he was feeling rather tired of his prefect duties and I offered to take it off his hands for a bit. He accepted and let me have it. That was a great fucking day. I don’t know.

Yeah, all right, sure. Brush your teeth while seeing the prefect’s bathroom, fair enough. No. I did not pretend to be a Prefect. I was a prefect. Just for the day. But all the same, he let me have it and with it, I gained all his powers. Isn’t that brilliant? Shame I didn’t know you at the time.

Teeth brushing party? Sounds subdued, to say the least. But if that’s what you and her do for fun, you crazy birds go for it. Still, I’d like to hear about it.

WHAT? THE PREFECT’S HAVE THEIR OWN BATH? I didn’t know that. Dammit, I never realized and never had the chance to sneak in. That sounds nice though. You should try to sneak in.

People are sent to the hospital wing everyday. My friend actually sent Finn to the wing already… They thought it would be humorous to duel each other, but Finn was actually seriously harmed.

I don’t know why you’d be surprised when I like water a lot. No, I don’t really take bubble baths or anything. Kind of just sit there until I get tired of sitting there and that’s my bath.

Well, yeah, there’d be dry clothes and snuggling afterward. Once we got back, snogging some more, had some hot baths and then we could sit on the couch to do whatever we please. Have some tea too, maybe. Keep ourselves from getting sick and all that.
Thanks. Sarcasm doesn’t translate well via post.

Dragons aren’t that bad. From what I’ve heard they’re mostly docile when left on their own. I guess they are like any other animal, and react if they feel threatened.
Docile? Did you just describe dragons as mostly docile? As in, calm. Sweet. Kittens. Kittens are docile. Dragons! Well - so long as you understand them, that’s all that matters.

Still not following how that’s possible. Or do you mean you wear shoes that add an inch to your height?
Hmm, sort of. But also some days I just think I’m taller. Like, I wake up and my spine is stretched more than others. Today I’m feeling shorter.
