Urg. I forgot about that potions essay. You'd think they'd cancel homework for a day or two, what with the headmistress out of action-- although, come to think of it, who's Sluggie gonna send me to if I don't do this?

Merlin's washed out y-fronts

[private to Rose]

Did you get mum's owl? Apparently this is all going to be in the evening edition of the prophet. I think I'm gonna go hide in the room of requirement for the next month.

Will dad be angry at Harry?

[?private]

Did anyone else see Professor Pucey and Sinistra making eyes at each other over dinner? It put me off my bangers and mash.

[Private to Lily]

I've been asked to pass on the message that my dad and your mum are united in grounding us forever and always if we sneak into Hogsmeade at any point... So, whatever, are you free for sneaking out tomorrow night?

[/private]

[Private to mates]

Let's sneak into Hogsmeade tomorrow. It'll be awesome. Fight the power.

[/private]

[Private to Rose]

Have I ever told you you're my favouritest, most bestest sister?

Don't kill me.

[/Private]

Detention with Slughorn. Oh no. Three hours of eating crystalised pinapple and having Sluggie convince me I should run for Minister. Ah ha. I was supposed to have Pucey but apparently he has stomach ache. Oh well.

Nick! I demand kitchen raiding tonight. It's been too long since we took advantage of  appreciated the house-elves by partaking of their hospitality.

[Private to Kerrigan]

I'd like to
D'you think we
Can we hang out or something? If you're not too busy.

[/private]

There's a boggart in the cupboard of the Gryffindor common room, just to warn you all. And thanks very much (not) to all my fellow Gryffindors-- who failed  to come to my rescue. It's back in there now. Somebody tell someone or something.

I think I have Dragon Pox. Stay away. I don't think I can be bothered with classes tomorrow anyway. Much more fun to stay in bed. It's too bloody cold out.

Well, that was fun. NOT. Next year I'll do a James and stay away from the family dinner and drama.

[Private to Alex]

Running to Marvin, are we? Why can't you just

Who even

I mean, you know me better

Do you fancy him or is

Tell Marvin to leave me alone. This  has nothing to do with him. I hope.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

[Private to Nick]

Oh god. It's all gone mental. Seriously, mate. I want to go for Christmas break like, today. Don't lose and/or copy my homework, by the way.

[/private]

[Private to Rose]

Ran into Lucy in the common room. In between putting up posters for werewolf rights and tipping first-years out of her favourite chair she told me you'd-- quote-- "lost it and gone mental at the whole family for being a bunch of spazzers". Could you expand on this a bit maybe? Did you get fudge by the way? I don't think anyone did, but Lucy seems to think you did.

[/private]

Oh well. At least I've got my lovely scarf. There were socks too, which I didn't notice when I first opened the parcel. 

 We're still getting things on Christmas day though, right? This isn't an instead of kind of deal? I bloody hope not anyway.

[Private to Nick]

Fuck, fuck, fuck. I think she hates me now. And I asked Queenie, as you may already know. How the fuck did Scandalwitch find out? Also, can you check inside your Transfiguration text book in case I left my homework inside it? All I need now is bloody detention for not doing my homework.
[/private]

[Private to Alex]

This is all your fault, if you hadn't blown me off none of this would have

I think you're a total

I don't know how to

Is there a problem or something?

[/private]

[Private to James]
I'm taking this girl to the Yule Ball for a dare. Ever done that? I'm slightly worried it's going to blow up in my face.
[/private]

Frankly, this has not been a good week. And I hurt my hand trying to catch a chocolate frog. It got out the window anyway.

Right, well. Balls are ridiculous. You could even say they're balls, geddit? Yeah, that was shite, I know.

This skirt thing is excellent. Haha.



[Private to Alex]

Would you

I'd like it if we

Do you

Why the fuck is this so difficult? You're my best mate.

So, this, er, Yule Ball thing?

[/private]

[private to Lily]

We need to talk. I thought you fancied Lysander? What about Lorcan, he's lovely, and not as weird as Lys? But whatever. Anyway, Smith is too old for you. If he touches you below the neck I might have to curse him, just so you know.

[/private]

Has everyone gone mental or something? Smith, get off my cousin before I kill you, and Nick, what the bloody hell is going on?

Well, I'm just out of detention. What a waste of two hours. Though I think I might have come up with a thirteenth use for dragon's blood. If I get rich from it I'll give you 1%, Queenie, in ackowledgement that it wouldn't have been possible without you.

[Private to Queenie]
I enjoyed our breakfast though. Didn't you?
[/private]

[Private to Alex]
Are you busy? I'm bored. Let's go do something.
[/private]

To whoever told McGonagall on me,

Very funny. You're next.

[Private to Alex]

So I informed my grandmother you're coming for Christmas. She's delighted, but you might have to share a room with Lily when we're at the burrow. Just warning you now. Lily's great but she can be a little prickly-- you know how it is.

Going to Hogsmeade this weekend? Lucy's having a thingamajig. And we could go somewhere have a butterbeer after? Like a date or something maybe.

[/private]

There's a pink bra on my bed and I'm reasonably certain it doesn't belong to anyone in my dorm. Better not be Mallory's, Nick! If anyone's missing it, please let me know. Otherwise I'm going to affix to it the wall above my bed and tell people I wear it on the weekends.

You know, I just think, if someone wants to have a personality transplant, we should respect that. And leave her alone to be merry and hilarious. Snort.

[Private to Rose]

Seriously, has the world descended into chaos outside these castle walls? I just heard about Janny's father, the whole school is talking about it. I've never heard anything so awful in my life. Was it totally random or was there some reason, d'you think? Are dad and Harry looking into it at work?
