I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

Ugh.
Acton made a total meal of it during our lesson today, going through all the Apparent Characteristics of the Curse I was under ('Or was it the journal itself?')--she wrote it all up on the blackboard. Blerg! I was so hacked off I could have curled those long, pointy nails of hers just by thinking about it, but I didn't.
Really, I didn't do anything. I just sat there. And I even answered her questions when she was horrible and made me answer. Mostly because she was trying to make out it might have been a spell that I cast that went wrong because of my wand, and I didn't want to prove she's right that I'm sometimes doing stuff I don't really try to do (when I get frustrated, y'know or angry, like that time in Carrow's lesson).
But everyone knows I didn't curse my journal yesterday. For one thing, I only do stuff accidentally that I kind of want to see happen (like roast Carrow alive). It's never stuff I don't wish would happen. Like me having to chat up the Malfoys and Mrs Lestrange!
Er. Except when stuff rebounds, I guess.
And she's totally right. Mrs Lestrange, I mean. I have to get Padma back for this. Right away!
I've been thinking all afternoon, but I can't decide. What do you think I should do? What's the best way to really wipe that smug sneer off her ugly face?
I could make her nose look like a pig's. I think I could do that one and make it stick. But, I don't know. I don't think I could do it without anyone knowing.

yeah, suttle
right?
when you get stuff done and no one can figure it out, right?
I guess that's not really something I'd be naturally good at, but I can see how it'd be dead useful. And I know you see it, too. It's too bad, really: if we were all three in there, then look out Padma Patil! We'd be totally unstoppable, terrorising all the filthy backstabbing prats around here.
