WEASLEY!!!!

THIS IS NOT FUNNY. Not. Funny. At ALL.

On my busiest day of the week, too. No, no no no no no.

You'll pay for this, you loathsome WEASEL.

Patil? What's going on?

From:

alt_padma

Somehow that little worm HEXED me. I'm trying to fix it but I don't know what spell he used so I'm not sure I can reverse it.

I'm not coming to breakfast. But I will be in Defence.

From:

alt_draco

Not coming to break... so that means he hexed you in your sleep? While you were defenceless?

From:

alt_padma

Or maybe it was last night and it had a time delay. I don't know. That seems awfully clever for Weasley. He must have had help.

Otherwise he found some way to cast a spell inside the Ravenclaw dormitories and that's FAR too clever for that little oaf.

I have to go to the hospital wing, Sandoval says. Will you tell Professor Lockhart I'm sorry but I'll be a little late to the lesson? I don't know if anyone else is reading as it's breakfast.

From:

alt_draco

I agree he had help, his wand barely functions.

Yes, I'll tell Professor Lockhart that you had an emergency.

From:

alt_padma

Cheers, Malfoy.

From:

alt_sally_anne

I'm reading and can tell Professor Lockhart that Sandoval sent you to the hospital wing. He's sure to ask why, though. What happened?

From:

alt_padma

OH. LIKE YOU DON'T KNOW.

Malfoy will handle it.

From:

alt_sally_anne

Patil, I have no idea what happened to you but I'm terribly sorry, whatever it is, as it sounds absolutely terrible.

I hope Madam Pomfrey can put you to rights and I will see you in Defence.

From:

alt_lana

Patil,

I spoke to Madam Pomfrey at breakfast, and she said she has something that will help. You ought to go there right away, however. She said it's very important to begin the treatment quickly.

From:

alt_padma

But lessons....

But my hair....

Oh, well, I'm sure Professor Lockhart will understand if I'm a little late. Under the circumstances?

From:

alt_lana

I'm certain that Professor Lockhart will be entirely sympathetic.

From:

alt_padma

Did Madam Pomfrey say I should bring the hair or not? I mean... it's on the pillow, the house-elves haven't taken it away yet.

D'you think she'll reattach it?

From:

alt_seamus

Something happened to your HAIR?

Ugh who would do that?

It can't be Weasley though, he can't even cast a proper charm with his wand. And he hardly left Gryffindor House all weekend. After he got out of the hospital wing I mean.

Maybe someone put something your food. Did anyone come near you at dinner last night? Who wasn't in your house I mean?

From:

alt_padma

I don't know! I don't think so.

I know it wasn't Weasel, he's not clever enough, but he's got to be behind it.

Although he couldn't have paid anyone. It takes money to pay someone.

Anyway, I didn't see anyone put anything in my food. And there was nothing unusual in my bag, either.

From:

alt_seamus

It would be dead hard to put something in your food with all the care everyones taking with who eats off which platter.

Weasley couldn't have paid anyone, you're right about that too. Maybe it was Parkinson who did it? She might be cross because you called Weasley her girlfriend. And anyway you two don't seem to get on.

From:

alt_pansy

We might not get on, but I'm not about to get in that sort of trouble or go to those lengths over a silly fight. Even if I did know how to do it in the first place, which I don't.

And I'll be the first to admit that hexing a girl's hair clean off is pretty low. It's just not done.

From:

alt_lana

Oh. No, she didn't say.

Perhaps it's a good idea if you do take it with you.

You have a scarf, don't you? If not, I've loads of them you could borrow.

From:

alt_padma

I have one for now, but if she can't fix it right away I might need some.

It's sort of creepy, looking at my hair without me in it.

From:

alt_lavender

Padma, what HAPPENED? Are you all right?

From:

alt_padma

Oh, Lavender, it's AWFUL!!!

I'm glad I have lots of scarves, and sari wraps and all, but....

It's my HAIR. Someone did something and it.... When I got up this morning, my hair stayed behind. ALL of it.

And I know WEASEL didn't do it himself, but he got SOMEONE to do it, I'm sure.

From:

alt_lavender

That's simply Horrid! And NOT ON!

I know you have loads of beautiful scarves, but if Parvati and I can get you anything, just tell us.

From:

alt_ron

Huh?

From:

alt_sally_anne

How on earth could you have hexed her with your broken wand while she was sleeping in Ravenclaw?

Do you suppose the twins --

From:

alt_ron

I dunno. I mean, they didn't say anything to me about doing anything.

When would they have?

And, anywiz, what happened to her?

From:

alt_sally_anne

Neville said after he and Percy left you in the hospital wing that the twins were trying to figure out a way to put doxy dung in Acton's pumpkin juice and hex Padma bald.

I reckon they figured out one! (Maybe BOTH.)

From:

alt_ron

They were just joking, though. I mean, how on earth could they have got in Ravenclaw let alone into the girls' dormitory? That doesn't make any sense.

She's bald, though? Really?

From:

alt_sally_anne

REALLY she is.

In Defense she had a scarf on her head but you could still tell. Normally if she wore a scarf she'd have carefully arranged all these little wisps to stick out and look pretty, and it was just the scarf wrapped around her head with her face peeking out.

At least she still has her eyebrows, she'd look even stranger without eyebrows.

She was FUMING. Professor Lockhart told her how pretty her scarf was and that cheered her up some but she was furious again five minutes later.

Obviously she wasn't talking to me but I heard her whispering and Madam Pomfrey says it's going to take a few days to grow back. I think she's going to be bald until Wednesday night!

From:

alt_sally_anne

Wait, she says her HAIR up above, it IS, it's got to be, they worked out a way to hex her bald.

FRED AND GEORGE YOU ARE BRILLIANT. BRILLIANT!!! I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HER IN DEFENSE!!!!!!

From:

alt_neville

I'll say. And at least this way, no one'll be confusing her with Parvati.

From:

alt_dean

Calm down Padma! Its just hair after all. And you wouldn't want to be seen as over excited about this.

From:

alt_padma

I'm not over-excited, Thomas. Someone sabotaged me - that's not something one CAN overreact about.

Besides, it's different for boys to be bald. Girls aren't meant to have no hair.

Whoever did this is contemptible and vile and will PAY.

From:

alt_dean

Oh calm down. It will grow back, at least you lost yours in a way that it will come back quickly. Mine took two weeks to recover from because of the mud. Anyway, why don't you show how much of a lady you can be by not letting them get you worked up over this. Plus there are plenty of beautiful bald models in other countries.

Just work on trying to start a trend with those scarves you have been wearing. Besides, you wouldn't want to be seen as stooping to a level you don't belong on. Play it classy why don't you, AND CALM DOWN.

From:

alt_harry

I don't know, I think she's right to be mad. She looks like a quaffle!!

From:

alt_dean

I didn't say don't be mad. Its just not classy to make such a display.

From:

alt_harry

Sometimes your such a prig, Thomas.

From:

alt_dean

Plus everyone knows the best way to get revenge is not to publicly announce your intentions. The best revenge is dealt when the person its intended for doesn't know its coming.

From:

alt_harry

That's right I suppose.

From:

alt_seamus

The idea of a scarf fashion trend is a good one, maybe Lav and Parvati would wear scarves too to keep you company?

From:

alt_luna

I actually think you look quite lovely that way. Your hair was nice, of course, but you have such a beautifully shaped skull, and none of us even realised before.
