Really, Weasley. It's not as if I did anything that was against the rules then. Just because they changed them, because someone somewhere might use the firechat to bring in something Dangerous, does not mean that I did anything wrong!
Doesn't change that it was you, doing something that they didn't think anyone would do, that made the Ministry clarify their rules and take away one more way for us to get in touch with our parents. (Because, honestly, if your Mum wasn't allowed to send it by owl, then it's obvious to anyone with a brain that you shouldn't have taken the journal through the fire.)
Don't say that Ron, they'll think you're saying Lockhart has no brain! You already got in trouble once this week for saying something bad about a professor.
I mean Lockhart's safer than the Carrows but STILL.
Oh, please. You think he does have a brain? I mean, all he expects us to learn is his favourite colour and what flavour Bertie Botts he said he likes best in the advert he did for the company.
I didn't know you were as googly about him as all the other girls.
Not to mention he's going to have every Prefect in Gryffindor wanting to hex him into the ground. And not just Percy.
What's gotten into you, Ron? Things are tense enough without everybody getting hacked off at you. Maybe it makes you feel better to run off at the mouth at people, but do you really want to get everyone from Draco Malfoy to the Head Girl telling everybody you're a blood traitor or something?
Did you not see where I said before that no one had touched my journal except Mummy and our house elf?! I understand what the Headmistress is saying, that someone could possibly pass something dangerous through firechat, but I didn't!
And are you saying my Mummy doesn't have half a brain? Because I might have to come find you and hex you.
Is your Mum staying inside your house under quarantine? What about your elves?
I mean, there's a reason they're not letting your Mum or anyone else's come here. Or send us parcels by owl. It's because they want to keep everything that's not already inside the school out. So nothing that's outside, like the disease, can get in. Even by accident.
