Pansy's going spare. Madam Pomfrey's keeping us out until she's finished with Miss Professor Carrow, and I don't know if she'll let us in then. I think she will, but Pansy's worried she won't.
Terry's inside, but I think she shooed him into her office when MPC turned up.
Actually, she didn't turn up, she stormed in. And you should've seen the look she gave Pansy.
That's it, isn't it? You don't want to have to stop taking your special private unforgivables lessons with her. 'Cause whoever would take over Dark Arts from her probably wouldn't give you lessons anymore.
You know how I talk sometimes about how useful it is to be a good liar and to KNOW you're a liar? Because if you KNOW you're lying and you can just lie shamelessly then you're less likely to believe your own lies?
I think Percy is the opposite. He can't bear to lie, so he needs to convince himself that everything he says is true, no matter how awful it is. No matter how awful it makes him.

You don't want her getting sacked, do you?
Bloody buggers!
