I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

[alt_ron]

Oi.

What is it with girls? I mean to say, either they're all googly about this ball business or they're all going around everywhere all together in a huge herd so you can't even talk to them or then they get all offended if you actually ask them.

Not half mad, innit.

So. Who's left that's decent?

What's Brocklehurst like?

So Ron seems to be coming around to Mandy, and I don't want Harry pulling the rug from under him because then he'll pout and won't go at all.

I told Draco to tell Harry that Mandy might be spoken for, and gave a few other options. We'll see.

I feel quite sorry for Harry. Apparently he had a bit of a thing for Cho, and it's not fun to scramble at the last minute for a date you don't particularly care for after finding out the girl you like is going with someone else.

Sometimes I think it would be easier for all of us if Harry didn't mind being treated like he's special for being the Lord Protector's son.

But I'm really glad he decided Cho should go with Diggory, if that's what she wanted.

Anyway, I hope he finds someone to go with who he has a good time with. Ron, too. (I'm less annoyed now than I was.)

I think Ron was just being touchy because he'd been turned down and he didn't really want to go. And he was being a boy. They don't think about how things like that could be hurtful. At least we know he'd never say that to Mandy's face.

We could have a little getting ready party for everyone in the Tea of the Strange, couldn't we? Make sure that everyone's robes look sharp, and practise hair and make up. And we could get Mandy a little of that cream. The good kind.

Oh, that's an excellent idea. We should get her the cream soon, though, it needs a week or so to really work properly.

Did you see Hydra wants to come practise hair charms with you and me and Daphne? I told her we'd love to have her come.

The way her mum talks to her just makes me so sad. She's been looking so absolutely happy for the last day or two, too, I think she's REALLY looking forward to going with Justin.

Milli's robes don't fit her properly. I think her mum thinks she's built like Daphne and weighs at least a stone less than she actually does. She tried to charm them to fit her better but she just mucked them up. (And I offered to help her with them but that made her even more cross and then she stuffed them in her trunk and hasn't taken them out since.)

Anyway, if you want to try, or tell Daphne to have a go... that might not be a bad idea. I think they're salvageable (unlike those awful things Ron's mum sent him) but they'll need some work.

I'll pass it along.
