Dear Mum and Dad,
It was a Hogsmeade day, so we all went into town. It was cold, but I wore my jumper under my robes, Mum, so I kept warm. Don't worry.
It was a bit naff today because loads of people had dates because of Valentines coming up, but that's all right because Zonko's wasn't so crowded as usual, or Honeydukes after they all went off to the Broomsticks or that cafe with the lacy curtains. What's it called? You should've seen it. Whenever anyone opened the door, loads of hearts floated out--like soap bubbles, only pink and sparkly. And heart shaped. Totally naff.
Oh. And I saw Percy. He was coming out of this inn called the Protector's Circle. And while we were talking, didn't Penelope Clearwater come out of there, too? She seemed a bit embarrassed when she saw me. Wonder what they could've been up to in there all afternoon?
Nice that Percy likes his job. He said it's really brilliant. And that he does super important stuff for Mr Malfoy. Shame it's all super secret so he couldn't go on and on, telling me about it. I've really missed that.
Term's going fine.
Looking forward to Easter hols. Did you hear they're getting up a trip for the visiting students? I guess maybe some of us in the YPL might get asked to join in for some of it. Maybe. They haven't said for sure yet.
And the Second Task is coming up.
I think that's pretty much all of it.
Your favourite son,
Ronald

Hope you're happy.
Re: Private Message to Percy Weasley
You may think it's a good thing you're at Hogwarts and out of my immediate reach. But you'd better believe it, no matter how long it takes I will make you pay.
I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good
I say, everything all right, then?

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good
Percy was a complete berk. And I got a bit hacked off.
Nothing serious.
Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good
That is, if you're in the mood to talk about it. Perhaps it would help?

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good
Well, Percy just thinks he's better than all the rest of us. And knows better, too, about everything.
So I ran into him on the street, and he starts in on OWLs and NEWTs and how I'm not going to come to anything if I don't dress better and get higher marks.
I mean, whatever.
It would've been better if I hadn't seen him. And then Clearwater came along and that made it ten times worse. Because when he saw her coming, he started pulling on my robes and did this rubbish charm that was supposed to make them look better.
You can guess how that turned out. And I can't figure out how to reverse it. I'm going to have to find Sally Anne tomorrow and see what she can do. She's ace at that sort of magic.

Re: Private message to Ron Weasley
What's Percy done to you? Lately, I mean?
Re: Private message to Ron Weasley
Got right up my nose, didn't he?
I don't work hard enough to ever get a brilliant post like his. Or write Mum enough now he's not here to make us write or else. Or keep my robes 'decent'. Decent? Like it's my fault they're too short and look worn to bits.
I may have sort of lost a wheel off the carriage when he did that 'spiffing' spell on them. In the middle of the road. Just when Finnigan was coming along. And Dunstan was turning the corner and saw it, too. Nearly choked me, too. I'm going to have to get someone to reverse it tomorrow, because that collar's a nightmare.
He's lucky I didn't hex him.
But like I said, Finnigan was coming up the road, and I knew he'd see to it I got in enormous trouble if I used magic in Hogsmeade. Even if it was on my own brother. So I didn't.

Besides, for all we know, they may have simply been meeting for tea in a private parlour.

The boy's growing up, Molly. You know that. It's entirely natural.
As you very well know from what we were up to when we were that age.
