Is it really still only Thursday?

This has been the longest week ever.

Honestly, I'm so ready for this year to be done. Ugh. Today was Charms and Transfig, which, y'know, wouldn't be so bad if I could ever actually make my wand work, but today Professor Acton made us all come forward and demonstrate the spells we've been learning to cast, and

yeah.

Tomorrow is double Herbology and that's okay. Well, except for the part where it's with Ravenclaw. I heard Professor Sprout's been making all the Ravenclaws have special scourgify charms cast on them--and everyone else if they've got her lessons at the same time as the Ravenclaws. I guess she doesn't want any pests getting into the plants. I mean, I guess, that makes sense, only, you just know Patil's going to be totally ridiculous about it, don't you?

So, yeah. Can it be the end of term yet, please?

From:

Well done, Weasley.

From:

Oh, shut it.

From:

I mean, you know it's true. You'll just make a big thing out of it tomorrow when she casts the cleaning spells on you.

From:

D'you still have lice, then?

From:

Let's see, do you still have pudding for brains, Weasley?

It's almost hard to imagine Gryffindor vying for last place in the House Cup, with wits like yours to represent it.

From:

Guess you do, then.

From:

Ronald. Show some discretion for once.

From:

For once?

It's been yonks since I've written anything here. And then it was just to ask Bill a question, so you don't need to get all shirty, y'know.

From:

No, I don't, but apparently you've finally realised that your village is missing its Squib.

From:

Ha ha.

Didn't think you grew up anywhere near us, Patil.

From:

alt_neville

Well, Percy may sound like he's scolding you in the journals. But he broke up laughing when he read this comment just now, sitting in the Common Room. I think he's got some sneaking sympathy for your point of view about Patil.

From:

NO ONE would grow up anywhere near you, Weakley.

I'm not sure how Perks and Parkinson can spend so much time with you, but perhaps they like the smell of sweaty socks.

Or did you just get hit with another hex so that you have to answer everyone again? At least then if you said something rude you'd no one to blame but yourself - but then, I don't know if you'd recognise a polite comment if it shook your hand - which it wouldn't because it would then have to go wash off the stink.

From:

His last name is spelled 'W-E-A-S-L-E-Y.' I mention it because I remember you always say that proper spelling is important.

I grew up near him, actually.

From:

I mean, I can see why Professor Sprout would want to be careful about what gets loose in her greenhouses. Think of the damage it could do all her plants.

From:

Well, she lets you in every week. So she must not be too worried.

From:

I don't come in dripping nits and fleas and mites and aphids.

From:

No, just stupidity and incompetence.

From:

Too true, and slugs are ever so much more charming.

From:

Yes, please.

Except for the part where we have to take all those exams that I haven't studied nearly enough for.

Bother.

I feel like I'm behind in everything.

From:

You've been studying like mad all year. You'll do fine. I mean, didn't you think exams were sort of, I dunno, just what you'd expect. Only more. Loads and loads all piled together, but not a surprise or anything. Last year's, any way. I dunno. I'm not fussed about that. There's still loads of time before exams.

But that's what I mean, really. There's just all these lessons, and it's just endless, innit?

From:

That's true.

And yeah, it does seem that way sometimes. Thank Merlin it isn't really.

What do you think they'll do if it gets to be end of term and we're still under Quarantine?

From:

Don't even say that!

Oi!

It feels like we've been here ten years already.

From:

I take it back!

Never said it!

Not going to happen!

So are you going to have a Quidditch get-together this summer like you did last? Because that was a lot of fun.

I'll be in Scotland for a good bit, and in London some, but with Lucius and Aunt Narcissa, so I can't have a lot of people visit me, because I'll be a guest sort of myself. But I might be able to visit you. Maybe. I hope.

From:

Yeah, that'd be great, wouldn't it?

I bet Mum will let us do some fun stuff since this was such a rotten year.

What are you going to be doing in Scotland, anyway? Does your mum have family up here or something? I mean, I'm going to be glad to get as far away from Scotland as I can when they let us out of here!

From:

Mum's spending most of the summer with Mr Campbell. You know. Her suitor.

So I am too, for part of it at least.

From:

So he lives in Scotland, then? I guess I thought he lived in London. So you have to go stay at his, then? That seems, I dunno, more serious? More something.

From:

You could say that, yeah.

From:

alt_neville

Do you WANT to make everyone in Ravenclaw hate you?

Should have put this post under the lock, maybe.

From:

alt_sally_anne

Bit late now.

From:

I dunno, I could still do it.

Keep Patil from going on and on.

From:

Huh.

Yeah, I guess I could've.

Still could, I guess.

From:

alt_sally_anne

NO YOU CANNOT.

From:

Huh?

From:

alt_sally_anne

I mean don't you think it would look SLIGHTLY suspicious if this post suddenly vanished out of the journals? Once it's written it STAYS, I've heard it even stays if you rip the page out though I haven't tested it.

From:

What do you mean? If you rip the page out? It just writes again on another page?

But what about the spell?

From:

alt_sally_anne

What about WHAT spell?

I don't actually know what happens if you rip out a page, but I have heard that once it's appeared in someone else's journal it stays. You can go back and cross out if you really want but it'll still be there.

From:

Huh.

Yeah. I was forgetting I'd have to write it again in the other ink, too. Not just put the words at the top.

Doesn't really matter, anyway. I didn't say anything I didn't mean. And I've been dying to tell Patil off.

From:

alt_sally_anne

I wasn't even thinking about the ink. I don't know what happens if you use the ink without the spell or the spell without the ink.

Just that, even if you COULD make this entry disappear it would be ten times worse than a bunch of cross Ravenclaws.

From:

I guess it wouldn't be a good idea to find out what would happen.

So, yeah.

I think I'll just put this up for tonight, maybe.

From:

alt_sally_anne

That would probably be a good idea before you provoke Patil any more than you already have!

Not that I mind seeing her cross mind you. At least at night when I'm safely in Slytherin House!

From:

alt_sally_anne

And Patil is exactly the sort who'd notice it was gone and want to know how you did it and suggest to everyone you ripped the page out and that's not allowed, is it, and shouldn't you be in trouble for defacing the journal the Lord Protector gave us? except she's heard from Belinda that Belinda knows someone who TRIED ripping a page out and that didn't work so HOW DID YOU DO IT Weasley?

Patil and her cronies already hated you. Don't worry about it.

From:

alt_neville

Blimey, she's right, Ron. Don't go trying to make the post disappear now, cause that would make things ten times worse. Trouble like that we DON'T need.

From:

Yeah, okay. Okay.

No worries, right?
