Who's looking forward to Sunday???

Dean, do you want to walk there together? I want to go to Zonko's first, Honeydukes is brilliant and all but I can always ask Mr Rosier to send me sweets, he's not as likely to send me dungbombs jokes.

Oh? Even after all the extra help he gets from Perks??

Shocking.

I don't know why but I've asked Parvati why she and you and Lav have to be in Gryffindor. It's such trouble sometimes, really, and it'd be so much easier if you were here in Ravenclaw or even in Hufflepuff! Why do we even need Gryffindor at all, d'you reckon? I mean, just because he was a founder? But he was wrong about so much!

Hey - maybe we ought to talk about the Founders some night soon, for History Club. What do you think?

There's nothing wrong with courage if it's courage in the service of the right things.

The problem is that if you're brave AND a traitor at heart, your fear isn't going to be enough keep you in line.

I mean all the houses have their issues. Hufflepuffs are easy to lead and if they get the wrong leader they'll follow them over a cliff. Ravenclaws sometimes get curious about something and damn the consequences. Even Slytherins can go wrong, it happens, and they're better at hiding it. You know?

I think a History Club meeting on the founders would be brilliant.

I suppose, but so many of you lot in Gryffindor are not just brave, you're thick-headed as well. And it seems like everyone lumps the good Gryffindors in with the bad ones, so sometimes it seems like it would just be a whole lot less trouble if one could say you weren't Gryffindors at all. But I suppose there are Ravenclaws who are slimy gits, too, like Stretton and I guess Sandoval, now, too.

What if you were to talk about Godric Gryffindor and I'll take Rowena Ravenclaw. And I'll ask Parkinson if she wants to talk about Salazar Slytherin and maybe MacMillan or Bones will cover Helga Hufflepuff.

Oh, and let me know if you decide to meet Hooper tomorrow instead. It's so much easier to have Thomas in the group if you're there as well.

Courage doesn't pair well with stupidity, I'm not going to argue with that! And not EVERYONE lumps the good Gryffindors in with the bad ones. Mr Rosier doesn't, and I don't think Mr Malfoy does, or most of the teachers other than possibly Carrow.

I could definitely talk about Godric Gryffindor, there are some excellent biographies of him in the library, and I think Parkinson would be an excellent person to talk about Salazar Slytherin.

It's just as well Hooper turned out to be busy tonight, as I really needed the Transfiguration practice. Ugh. I'd be happy if I never saw furry anything, ever again.
