alt_lavenderIt's nice to have such a lot going on! It's been rather quiet around here lately.
I hope everyone who attended enjoyed the revue last night; we certainly had a good time putting it on! Many thanks to Daphne & Mr. Krumgold for everything, and especially for a very fine cast party last night.
And of course, thanks to Headmistress Umbridge for allowing the show to go on.
It's been lovely weather all day too--simply perfect for a Hogsmeade visit. Parvati and I decided to bypass the crowds at the Three Broomsticks for a picnic in the plaza, and it turned out to be an excellent notion, as several of our friends found their way over to chat, and we didn't have to brave the crush of butterbeer-gulping third and fourth years.
Speaking of gulping, some people were looking rather green at dinner this evening. That's what too many Chocolate Frogs will do to a person!
All of us on the Junior Council were quite busy too! Fortunately, most people listened to the Headmistress, but a few were simply daft--I still can't believe McLaggen thought he could smuggle pasties in under his hat! I don't think the 6th years have enough to do, since they're not sitting exams this year. And some people think they're simply untouchable.
Although, there is such a thing as excessive enthusiasm for one's work--why some people thought threatening to show Longbottom's pants to the world was a good idea I can't imagine. It certainly wasn't anything I wanted to see!

Private Message to Padma and Parvati
Date: 2013-03-24 01:46 am (UTC)I did feel a bit badly for that one Hufflepuff third year--West, I think her name is. She was absolutely terrified and swore she'd just forgotten to eat her Chocolate Frogs in Hogsmeade.
I think she might've been telling the truth, but getting my wand all sticky poking around in her knapsack didn't exactly put me in the best mood.

I wish she weren't such a slut. She's really nice but, I dunno, she's just so full of herself, just because she's a little more experienced. And obviously she doesn't really care where she gets that experience.
But Blaise still likes her and I'm not sure--
Well, it doesn't matter, I guess.

Oh forI don't pretend to understand what intrigues you about Zabini, but maybe this is your opportunity!After all, Zabini does care about associating with the right people, and Greengrass hasn't exactly been showing herself to be one of them lately.
